There was a North Korean man on the train who had spent time in Cuba learning Spanish, and he was conversing with a young female tourist from South America. The North Korean man was coming home after working in China- and he was very excited to speak Spanish with a native speaker.
@@Pris4008 yes but I think it is only for work/studies, and they have to go back. There are NK students in some Indian unis, Finland, Russia, also other 2nd world xountries.
True, but it is impossible for a tourist, let alone an American, to photograph "inside" North Korea. You're always with a guide, who tells you what you can and can't photograph.
The international community should hang its head in shame that it has allowed such a disgraceful and totally evil regime to continue to exist as the oppressors of the North Korean people - we say that we value liberty and freedom, but in allowing such a horrible regime to continue to exist we are revealing our insincerity and our hypocrisy, at a point where the people of North Korea are clearly suffering and are yearning, are desperate for liberation - as an Irish Catholic patriot, I feel thier struggle at a very deep level, even more so than the Chinese people at the hands of the CCP regime - the North Korean regime has to be the most evil regime in the world, even worse than the CCP - why are the globalist elites remaining silent on this at a point when they could very easily bring thier considerable force to bear as a force for great good for the North Korean people?
I'm Korean and this video gives me a feeling that l've never felt before. Listening to North Korean ppl's words is really touching even tho they are saying just normal things. Really hope we can meet each other near future.
A+ video. This is just as good as going in person. Everybody stands around looking at the train because it's the most exciting part of their day. Your other videos should be great too.
10 years later, and still the best video i've stumbled upon. the slow motion scenes were all so touching, humanizing. thank you. and damn all news networks that cannot show the truth: reality. RUclips is a blessing.
I can hear some Korean-Chinese speaking lol (I live in South Korea) 1:37 아~ 여기가 차도이구만! (Oh this is the road!) 2:16 Boy: 나 코해야지 고노(?) 가고! 한 한시간 있을라고. 가고 좀 쉴라고. (When I get there, I'm gonna sleep for a while. I wanna take a rest maybe for an hour.) Mom: 쉴 데가 없단 말이야, 이런데 한가운데 빠지면(?). (There's no place to rest though) (After a few seconds) Boy: 저기가 저승이에요? (Is that the afterdeath world?) 3:07 Old man: 근데 이 평양으로 가나? (BTW does this train go to Pyongyang?) They're speaking in somehow mixed-up Korean and Chinese language.. BTW it's really sad that I can't understand lots of them. Korean-Chinese language are similar to North Korean one, and probably I can't understand what they're saying because I've never heard of North Korean dialects since I was born.. This means it's been so long after Korean division. BTW dear Americans who think North Korea should be freed by America, you'd better let South Korea do it. Cuz it's Koreans who eager for reunification, by peace not war, and it's South Koreans' job to help North Koreans live in democracy in Reunified Korea.
s s but then there are a vast majority who adapt well and do better than the avg. which perspective do we go with? A few complainers who want hand outs or the 99% who enjoy a better life?
@s s Its different but we have a lot of similarities as well. Speaking the same language and sharing the same history for starters is enough to work with. Ideologies can always be reversed. What you were referring to were a few RUclips videos or single documentary that you saw of those saying they disliked the aggressive competition. Those videos of them were after only a few months to a few years of living in the South. Some take years to adapt but they always end up doing so. You can't base a whole opinion off of one documentary that you saw because its always biased in the point of view of the person making that doc. Also RUclips America which im guessing your watching these vids from only have a select catalogue of videos regarding the North. They are mostly dated and tailored to the Wests narrative. Watch it from the South Korean RUclips. you will get better content. Good luck with findings subs though.
Well, it certainly seemed to be. Jong-il used to wear those brown Bond-villain jumpsuits made from that synthetic fabric they love in the DPRK, Vinylon.
I’m not being sarcastic here, or trying to make some veiled point.. but I wonder where all those soldiers were off to. Maybe basic training, or an exercise of some kind? I just get curious about things like that.
Some areas of North Korea have more consistent electricity- those that use hydro dams for instance closer to the coast, and the capitol that has a large coal power plant. But most of North Korea has only limited periods of electrical power - perhaps just a few hours a night.
@CommunistBotNo you are wrong! They lack energy only because they don’t have enough money to import petroleum and the dictator have used all the money to develop nuclear weapons! He treats his people as slaves!
@CommunistBot Cuba and Venezuela for example, they do this to small countries to show to the world how "bad are the socialism" , funny thing is that no one is sanctioning China, because if they do, every country will break.
@@dimitriev7 so grass disapears in winter and theres just dirt? and then it comes back in spring? maybe i livein a magic country where it stay kind of green even under snow
Interesting, many people from Russia who visited NK say it reminds them of 1950's USSR in miniature. Most of the rolling stock seem like their own construction, altho it has very close resemblance to Chinese and Russian railroad. Except they got bogies made from rolled bars, instead of steel cast. The electric locomotives with six axles look identical to old Soviet ChS-2 .
They encourage photos/video of many scenes inside Pyongyang, monuments, nature settings, etc. They don't allow filming of the countryside, but recognize it's impossible to stop. However the regions tourists are allowed to visit are areas NK is happy to advertise- most of North Korea is closed to tourists because conditions are so terrible there.
I would be so scared to travel there in case I couldn’t leave again. It looks like USSR from 1950’s very depressing but extremely interesting at the same time. Maybe one day they will become like China a Country that is communist but embraces capitalism at the same time and has adopted some western ways.
@@cwnapier67No, all the formal communist countries have the same faces: poverty, no freedom and no hope. Believe me, I know what it was like under Mao’s brutal rule,worse than current North Korea. Only because China too poor and the Chinese so unhappy that Denxiaoping has to change otherwise CCP would definitely break down
Conditions in the areas I visited, locations the Elite live, were better than most Americans would likely think based on the media exposure we're exposed to. Conversely, If I had the ability to travel outside of the approved destinations, I would likely be overwhelmed by the poverty and brutality of this country.
I feel sorrow for those people who are forced to live in bad conditions. It seems like nobody cares. You get that feeling while watching the video. My prayers go out to those who suffer under the rule of this prison like dictatorship.
Julian Bristow it’s seems as China 40 years ago.the solder shooting behind the escapers who was trying to runaway from country’s border.its a shameful of dictator of China
@@annw1984 America is partly to blame for the poverty in NK, US and its allies have imposed economical embargo on NK since 1950 and because of this there were mass starvation . I think US and its allies have violated the human rights of North Koreans with this embargo where food and medicine are hard to come by, besides causing NK not to have a functioning economy. As for China, it is a modern, developed country with clean, safe, green, futuristic cities and a tech savvy young Chinese Millennials and Gen Z as shown in the playlist > 200 videos here on Sight & Sounds of China. ruclips.net/video/U1ovk-ywQps/видео.html

It looks so barren and impoverished. This is how things turn out when people have no freedom to improve or interact with their environment, without the special permission of one unwise, oblivious dictator.
It does look awful, so grey and drab, you don't see anybody seemingly enjoying anything? It's so sad that they see China over the river but if they tried to cross the bridge they would be shot! It's like a living hell for people living in North Korea....they cannot earn money or travel or do any of the things we all take for granted.
***** So because there are still sad, or poor, or messed up people in every country in the world, we're all on the same misery wavelength? That argument is pretty far out there. I'm not pointing fingers. It's... truth. North Korean defectors aren't lying. You're saying we have it as bad as North Korea? What hole do you live in? And look at the lack of GREEN LOVELINESS, LIKE TREES AND FLOWERS. I LOVE GREEN PRETTY THINGS ♡
Yes. That was me you were hearing. Accept I’m not Argentinian and I don’t speak Spanish, and I wasn’t ACTUALLY actually there.. Hope that clears it up.
what i'm trying to say, when i mentioned my grandma (just realised that this was quite random) is that there are things that you are amazing at doing and there are things that are brand new to you and you have to be taught how to do them - there is nothing wrong in that. the sad truth is that there are slightly more things that NKoreans needs to catch up with and be taught how to do.
I am from Abania and i feel very bad for those people because i know also what comunism means and how it destroys a country from the roots.Hope they one day get free and their country goes the right way.
albania was not destroyed by communism but by stalin, then it recovered, ppl couldnt wait the last few months until the state was finally debt free and had a bit of puffer and revolted, then made a coup, then the democratic party of albania fell for a scam and advertized it, destroying the country far more than ANYTHING before or after stalin. this is a really twisted view on your countries history.
Being Irish myself, I totally agree - it is a stark reminder of how the precious principles of Liberty and freedom must be protected at all costs and why ideologies like communism are so wrong on every level
Wow, that is fascinating! Being Chinese, you can blend in better: if you had legally taken the train in, you could have gotten out at a station during one of the many long stops, bought some fruit at the market, etc. But as a Westerner, you would be spotted right away.
00:01:25 I can see the hotel I stayed at when I went to Dandong sometimes ago. Yeah, I only cruised around in the Yalu River and the near shore to Sinijiu when I visited the area. It's pretty intriguing to see the huge difference between these two cities, one covered in skyscrapers and others a few beat up houses and an old amusement park.
I spent my childhood in a small Siberian town in Russia in the 90s. When I watch this video, I feel a strange sense of nostalgia, because at that time Russia looked about the same in the provinces: dirt, poor people, old cars, buildings from the Soviet Union. I also traveled from the province to the metropolis when I was 7-10 years old, and observed exactly the same picture from the train window (even the cars were the same, I think). Now, of course, everything has changed, but it's a very strange feeling.
Это первое о чем подумал когда это видео смотрел, ЭТО ЖЕ РОССИЯ, но с немного другим колоритом) Сейчас тоже самое в деревнях, грязь, бедность и тд. Стабильность как говорится. Сибирь. Красноярский Край.
@@НашаНиша-т7м согласен но раньше все было другой гаммы цветов, все цвета блеклые, сероватые, не было пестрой рекламы, было мало машин. Что касается глубинки и маленьких городов. Сейчас приезжаешь в маленький город - народу гораздо больше, все пестрит рекламой, много зданий из сайдинга которые разбавляют однородность стиля застройки, много машин вперемешку новые старые, левый руль, правый руль. В 90-е хоть и было бедно но гораздо гармоничнее смотрелось в одном стиле.
@@НашаНиша-т7м я думаю что это скорее начало-середина 90х, когда все что было в СССР итак не идеальным начало приходить в упадок. Осмелюсь сказать что в 80е все выглядело получше судя по фотографиям, чем в первую половину 90х. Когда просматривал фото и видео об СССР у меня сложилось такое впечатление. Наверное СССР в 21 веке бы гораздо лучше выглядел чем Северная Корея, все же тогда хоть и была закрытая страна, но уж не настолько жёстко )) Из северной Кореи выехать непривилигированному классу практически невозможно, по-моему даже деревенский житель просто так в Пхеньян не может поехать. Это не коммунизм а диктатура, рабство под отмазкой коммунизма. Чего стоит трудовые лагеря, когда родственник сбегает или пытается сбежать , всю его семью в лагерь пожизненно.
0:40... On the background is brown rail car. On a side of a car is written in russian: "Moscow - Beijing"... In North Korea?... How? This train passes through Mongolia. ...
I really like the style of this video when you slow some scenes down and then fast forward a bit. The effect shows both the humanity but yet also the realities of living in North Korea, at least to some point.
im suprised part 1 has over 2 million views and the other parts are only like 400k.. i also like how you took time to slow the video when passing something interesting.
Well, you have very limited interaction with local ordinary people- very few who are bilingual. Most foreigners are Chinese, which is the one country keeping NK afloat, so they do like them (even though most Chinese people visiting look down on North Koreans). There are also many Russians visiting, which the N. Korean also like. Even if a N.Korean believed the propaganda ideology, it would be suicidal to ever get into a physical confrontation with a tourist- so its a super safe place to visit
What was this person doing alone in N.Korea? Was he there for the purpose of making this film. If so he did a good job of blending in and concealing his camera well at the same time being able to get some decent footage of this fucked up place. What's there to do there anyway? I think I would die of boredom and depression not long after getting there.
Slavery is a relative term. You struggle to make a living by paying expensive rent for an apartment in the major cities working as a waiter or waitress is no better than slavery.
Eugene Jeong but still they don't conflict your rights as a human being than what is the situation in North Korea, their system is messed up. That's the point.
Thank you for posting. What type of camera did you use? The clarity when you shift to slow-motion is pretty good stuff. I went to the DPRK last summer and wish I'd gotten better shots of the peasants on the road side as we whizzed past them in our van, being the only automobile on the pot-hole filled road for mile after mile.
This video would have been so much better if you kept the camera or smartphone still or on a mount/tripod. The camera shake made viewing difficult and frustrating.
Curiosity Tourism. Same reason tourists visit the Amish in Pennsylvania. Pockets of isolationism is intriguing when the rest of the world is largely harmonized. Plus back then I was naive thinking North Korea would collapse because it was soon after the ROKS Cheonan sinking - and before I realized South Korea has long turned its back on the prospect of reunification- so I should have been in no rush to visit.
I was several times in Leningrad(today it is st Petersburg) in Russia,in the 70's. It looked so much like in this video. It was huge,enormous, but no people,no cafeterias,no neonlights or advertising signs(funny how neonlights and advertising signs actually makes a city!) and there were shops for tourists that the lokals good not enter. The lokals were hiding outside; asking tourists to go in to buy them items from those shops,like stereos,tvs,certain kind of clothes and grocerys and just about anything. Now I went back a few years ago and WOW what a change!!! Everything is available for everyone and there are nice cafeterias and restaurants and PEOPLE everywhere!! I hope that we all can go and visit N.Korea in the future and discover it has become human also,just like Leningrad did.
Yeah, key word people everywhere... They so everyone that you have to shove yourself into a train car at metro terminus... And these "changes" killed an awesome biggest tram system in the world so now stupid Melbourne is ahead of us... (and speaking about the metro again, the development if it is slow as molasses, because of severe corruption, "Prospect Slavy" station design was approved by city government in late 1960's and it opened only in two thousand f**ing nineteen)
In the war Leningrad lost millions of its citizens to starvation, the Germans cut Leningrad of from the rest of Russia for about 2 n half years. I guess that’s why the place seemed so quite
Yeah because hellish capitalist corporation's advertising makes a city. I'd love to live in a country without that shit. It's dystopian, having coca cola and exxon written every fucking where, it's alienating. Countries like Dprk and Cuba are free fron that horror
It is truly fascinating to watch this. I have been watching documentaries on North Korea for several days now. Such an interesting place. It's surreal. It is amazing that you were able to get footage like this of North Korea. Thanks for posting.
It looks like a soulless and lifeless industrial wasteland; it would depress the heck out of me to live in a place like that. I live in upstate NY with amazing forests, greenery. mountains and lakes, even in winter there's more colour to be seen.
@Jackson Holloman Yet they have the capability to finance, develop and build nuclear missiles and maintain the 4th largest standing army in the world 1.3 million personnel strong. Maybe if that money and resources had been used in another fashion, the place might look more like the quasi-Marxist utopia it claims to be. Since 1995, the US alone has given N.Korea $1.1 billion, and there has been millions of dollars in "aid" from the UN and other countries. Not exactly going it alone. I don't think the problem is how much money they have but how they choose to spend it.
@@JohnAlexanderiii N Korea were the belligerents, there were many incursions into the South and government backed guerilla groups trying to destabilise and foment rebellion during the 1940s and early 1950s prior to their invasion of the south. Funding, weapons and personnel were provided by both the USSR and PPR in order to accomplish a complete destruction and takeover of the Southern administration. Many thousands of South Koreans died at the hands of communist forces. Since the "cease fire", South Korea has managed to prosper all be it with much help from the west. but their focus was on building industry and an economy, not on armed forces weaponry and nukes.
@Jeffrey Markovic I don't "live in my mom's basement". and as far as travel, The places I've lived, worked and traveled to include, Malaysia, India, Saudi Arabia, Germany, France, Holland, Austria, Uk and USA. I'm no spring chicken and had a father who served in WW2, I'm fully aware of how dictatorial authoritarian government works, It exploits paranoia and fear in the population that any moment they will be attacked and destroyed and use that to justify how they govern and the lack of basic freedoms keeping them subservient through hardship, policing and enforcement a code of acceptable behavior. No one wants to invade or destroy N Korea but it's what Kim sells to his people to keep power and justify developing unnecessary weapons while his people starve and worship him.
They could use some off the Japanese rise pat's planting trucks, not hands labor-they will never be able feed the masses.Looks like the farm land have problem with water, no drainage system, and need more trees-fruit trees.Haw can anyone sanction these people,most of them live in poverty, day by day.And some parts of the commentator it's a shame.
peronk1, Great footage. I am curious how were you able to travel by train as a US Citizen? I had to fly out via Koryo Air(90Min)back to Bejing(2012). All the non-US Citizens went back by train(24 hours).
You have some great footage here dude, but maybe you could edit and trim it down a bit? Watching you go over a bridge for ~3 minutes could be shortened to 10 seconds. Just offering some friendly advice - bet you had a great experience!
if Kim Jong-Un actually copped on and opened his country to other people, the possibilities would be ENDLESS! It would make the world such a better place.
+✪ Dxvid yeah, we saw what happened when the sobiet union broke apart and free market was possible over night. The biggest theft in human history. Kim Jong Un is mart. He mkaes the chnage slowly, maybe over the period of 2 or 3 generations. First he allows tourists, latest new they open a surf beach for tourists. Some north korean army officers go to switzerland to military unisversity to see how the world outside works. There is a univesity run by an american korean in pyongjang where 300 students at a time learn how free market and capitalism works, basically the future CEOs Some Koreans students are allowed to go tu study abroad, for example in london. SLowly, but (Important!) CONTROLLED, the country opens up. If it opens too fast, their industry can not react and everything will be taken over by western managers and companies.
Dxvid But then he run's the risk of outside agitation getting a real hold in his Utopia, something he already kills for to stop from happening like his Grandad and father did before him. Why do you think you can and will get the death penalty for owning a DVD player in North-Korea,.....yeah its not going to happen man.
Excellent! I hope you do get the opportunity of going back again. The train passage is slow and long, but sharing a cabin with North Koreans without your minders around is a rare opportunity to get a better insight into their psyche and extent of knowledge about the outside world .
Мужчины служат 10 лет, а женщины 8. По крайней мере, так говорят. Учитывая это, так и получается: все кругом военные. Неудивительно, что экономика не работает.
I don't know how you were able to get this footage out of North Korea but you're doing everyone a great service, please don't go back, it's not worth getting arrested or worse.
The North Korean landscape is beautiful. I also was impressed by how clean and relatively structured/organized the cities were. The depressing and horrific events occur outside the reach of a tourist's eyes. Such as starving orphans roaming the streets in off-limits towns, guards executing or kicking pregnant women in the stomach who were repatriated by China for escaping- to keep the North Korean bloodline pure...those types of atrocities creates the gloomy environment there.
There's a lot more rubbish and dirt in the neighborhoods of the underprivileged in the United States. Nowhere in the world are so many people shot by the police as in the United States. Nowhere in the world are so many people locked up in prisons as in the United States. Don't you know? Where do You live? In a beautiful Country where everybody is happy? Even in Cuba the people live 5 Years more than in the US.Your missionary way of telling the world how a society should be organized is absurd. A lot is better in many European countries.
@Anti Vacine You should try working on your English first before you talk shit from behind your keyboard. Why do MILLIONS of people try immigrating to the US every year if it's such a shithole? Think about that one for a second🤡
I entirely agree with you. That said, are you Korean? The reason I ask, my experience with native South Koreans is that they have no interest in the topic of North Korea, and would not even be watching videos of tourist trips into that country. Needless to say, I'm a bit impressed by your engagement in the issue...which makes me think you're not a native Korean, or perhaps instead a foreigner living in Korea.
Why does Spanish use C instead of K for Korea? Spanish does not use the letters W or K? So words like wake, weak, hawk would be completely different words in Spanish?

Also RUclips America which im guessing your watching these vids from only have a select catalogue of videos regarding the North. They are mostly dated and tailored to the Wests narrative. Watch it from the South Korean RUclips. you will get better content. Good luck with findings subs though.
North Korea wont let them be free without any military intervention
Did South and North korea speak same language?
The official color of the DPRK is dirt brown.
Well, it certainly seemed to be. Jong-il used to wear those brown Bond-villain jumpsuits made from that synthetic fabric they love in the DPRK, Vinylon.
I’m not being sarcastic here, or trying to make some veiled point.. but I wonder where all those soldiers were off to.
Maybe basic training, or an exercise of some kind?
I just get curious about things like that.
Fantastic video. Well done! We really loved it.

Some areas of North Korea have more consistent electricity- those that use hydro dams for instance closer to the coast, and the capitol that has a large coal power plant. But most of North Korea has only limited periods of electrical power - perhaps just a few hours a night.
this small but proud and brave nation lives in poverty thanks to American vampires. Nothing ... soon the universal harlot will be defeated
@CommunistBotNo you are wrong! They lack energy only because they don’t have enough money to import petroleum and the dictator have used all the money to develop nuclear weapons! He treats his people as slaves!
@CommunistBot Cuba and Venezuela for example, they do this to small countries to show to the world how "bad are the socialism" , funny thing is that no one is sanctioning China, because if they do, every country will break.

Interesting, many people from Russia who visited NK say it reminds them of 1950's USSR in miniature.
Most of the rolling stock seem like their own construction, altho it has very close resemblance to Chinese and Russian railroad. Except they got bogies made from rolled bars, instead of steel cast. The electric locomotives with six axles look identical to old Soviet ChS-2 .

They encourage photos/video of many scenes inside Pyongyang, monuments, nature settings, etc. They don't allow filming of the countryside, but recognize it's impossible to stop. However the regions tourists are allowed to visit are areas NK is happy to advertise- most of North Korea is closed to tourists because conditions are so terrible there.

America is partly to blame for the poverty in NK, US and its allies have imposed economical embargo on NK since 1950 and because of this there were mass starvation . I think US and its allies have violated the human rights of North Koreans with this embargo where food and medicine are hard to come by, besides causing NK not to have a functioning economy.

It continues with Zemin and Jintao as President and that is why Xi made corruption his priority and arrested hundreds of thousands of corrupt officials. This is pivotal for China as the corruption will become endemic if not stop. Now China will continue to build the nation at a higher level.
Watch the videos, these are videos were made by many Chinese RUclipsrs to show the REAL China and not the anti china propaganda of the Western media. Watch it and see whether it is propaganda. Look at the people, the environment, look at the business - all the European luxury retail business and American food chain restaurant. Why would they be there if China is killing people, with Tofu buildings and all those stereotypical BS that anti China trolls churned out.

I really like the style of this video when you slow some scenes down and then fast forward a bit. The effect shows both the humanity but yet also the realities of living in North Korea, at least to some point.
im suprised part 1 has over 2 million views and the other parts are only like 400k.. i also like how you took time to slow the video when passing something interesting.
Well, you have very limited interaction with local ordinary people- very few who are bilingual. Most foreigners are Chinese, which is the one country keeping NK afloat, so they do like them (even though most Chinese people visiting look down on North Koreans). There are also many Russians visiting, which the N. Korean also like. Even if a N.Korean believed the propaganda ideology, it would be suicidal to ever get into a physical confrontation with a tourist- so its a super safe place to visit
True.. like 1950s Russia and East Germany !

Curiosity Tourism. Same reason tourists visit the Amish in Pennsylvania. Pockets of isolationism is intriguing when the rest of the world is largely harmonized. Plus back then I was naive thinking North Korea would collapse because it was soon after the ROKS Cheonan sinking - and before I realized South Korea has long turned its back on the prospect of reunification- so I should have been in no rush to visit.
If the two Korea's reunited, who would rule, the communist North, or the Democratic South?
I was several times in Leningrad(today it is st Petersburg) in Russia,in the 70's. It looked so much like in this video. It was huge,enormous, but no people,no cafeterias,no neonlights or advertising signs(funny how neonlights and advertising signs actually makes a city!) and there were shops for tourists that the lokals good not enter. The lokals were hiding outside; asking tourists to go in to buy them items from those shops,like stereos,tvs,certain kind of clothes and grocerys and just about anything. Now I went back a few years ago and WOW what a change!!! Everything is available for everyone and there are nice cafeterias and restaurants and PEOPLE everywhere!! I hope that we all can go and visit N.Korea in the future and discover it has become human also,just like Leningrad did.

Since 1995, the US alone has given N.Korea $1.1 billion, and there has been millions of dollars in "aid" from the UN and other countries. Not exactly going it alone.

Funding, weapons and personnel were provided by both the USSR and PPR in order to accomplish a complete destruction and takeover of the Southern administration. Many thousands of South Koreans died at the hands of communist forces. Since the "cease fire", South Korea has managed to prosper all be it with much help from the west. but their focus was on building industry and an economy, not on armed forces weaponry and nukes.

I don't know how you were able to get this footage out of North Korea but you're doing everyone a great service, please don't go back, it's not worth getting arrested or worse.
Yeah the prisons
are labor camps I would never go there
WORSE! ☠️
I've been watching a lot of NK documentaries, and from all those videos I've watched, there is a feeling that you are watching the past.
poor poor clueless ppl...i hope they rise up one day
go fuck yourself!
20:10 and earlier: anybody knows why women-policmen run?

The North Korean landscape is beautiful. I also was impressed by how clean and relatively structured/organized the cities were. The depressing and horrific events occur outside the reach of a tourist's eyes. Such as starving orphans roaming the streets in off-limits towns, guards executing or kicking pregnant women in the stomach who were repatriated by China for escaping- to keep the North Korean bloodline pure...those types of atrocities creates the gloomy environment there.
There's a lot more rubbish and dirt in the neighborhoods of the underprivileged in the United States. Nowhere in the world are so many people shot by the police as in the United States. Nowhere in the world are so many people locked up in prisons as in the United States. Don't you know? Where do You live? In a beautiful Country where everybody is happy? Even in Cuba the people live 5 Years more than in the US.Your missionary way of telling the world how a society should be organized is absurd. A lot is better in many European countries.
@@LudwigAmadeusVanDerMaas Why are you so fucking dense? Did he ever imply the USA was perfect? GTFO with your straw man arguments and stay on topic🤡
@Anti Vacine You should try working on your English first before you talk shit from behind your keyboard. Why do MILLIONS of people try immigrating to the US every year if it's such a shithole? Think about that one for a second🤡
Brother u r great making mind blowing vedio ... Is this tree year old video... Reply
I entirely agree with you. That said, are you Korean? The reason I ask, my experience with native South Koreans is that they have no interest in the topic of North Korea, and would not even be watching videos of tourist trips into that country. Needless to say, I'm a bit impressed by your engagement in the issue...which makes me think you're not a native Korean, or perhaps instead a foreigner living in Korea.
Южные корейцы - проститутки, продавшиеся сша.
Uno de mis sueños más bellos es la re-unificación de Corea.
mi sueño es TAIWAN indepediente para siempre
Why does Spanish use C instead of K for Korea? Spanish does not use the letters W or K? So words like wake, weak, hawk would be completely different words in Spanish?
@@robkrasinski6217 In spanish we use the letter K and W, he write Korea whit C because the spanish translate for Korea is Corea, for example Germany in spanish is Alemania, what is writed totally different.
This is Russia. Seriously. I went on a train Ride from Sochi to Krasnodar and everything was same except all text was in Russian of course. Really. It looks all same to me.
left4d0g many say like so. It is sad
What is the name of the song starting in 55.00 ?
I wish peace and prosperity for the people
thanks for sharing. maybe others found it boring but i really felt like i was in that train. inimmersed myself in that landscape and it made me think a lot
Reunification is blocked by the North Korean regime, not South Korea.
@Rational PoC do you know what a puppet is? Wtf SK is top 10 richest country in the world even if s country is an american bitch that doesnt create wealth.
Very interesting to see, but it looks a very sad place. Did you have to be secretive when filming or was photography 'free'?
There,s soldiers everywhere.
*there are
Yes, so poor a country but has one big army and nuclear weapons
In India you will only see excreta and garbage next to railway tracks...and maybe some people squatting while youre looking.
I imagine Wigan is a lot like this 🤔
There's a very great misconception about Wigan. It's actually a very sophisticated and technologically advanced place which is hidden from public view by a force field to deter visitors. It's real name is Wiganda and it's prosperity come from a locally sourced material known as Wiganium.
The leader of Wigan is called Uncle Joe, who is known as 'Black Puddther'.
WIGANDA FOREVER!
How old are the trains there? Amtrak in the US has coaches dating back to the 70’s and 80’s but they are about to replace them with newer ones.
I escaped from one of the former Soviet Union countries in 1987, this is EXACTLY what my country looked like back then. What a depressing place ..
I wish more westerners understood
А по-моему, депрессивное место - это то, куда ты сбежал. Задумайся над этим.
Me too, a Chinese did the same. China was worse back then.
