Thanks great video. I have a question if you have the time. What do you think America's best course of action following a election day cyber attack resulting in long term large scale power outages?
11:00 I'll bet Pyongyang announced the recent policy change just to spite you guys for having more success on YT than they have. The timing is just too close.
Don’t get me wrong, I support ROK. What they don’t say is the leaders of South Korea after ww2 were collaborators with the Japanese which lead to a lot of Koreans not supporting the gov’t. ROK was an anticommunist dictatorship for many years until the 90’s. It’s an important point to understand when studying Korea.
While all the collaboraters grew fat off selling their country out, most of the freedom fighters died penniless, fighting the Japanese to their last breath in Godforsaken Manchuria, and without even a body for their families to hold rites for. All of my grandmother's uncles suffered this fate. And Westerners tell Koreans to get over it, that it was in the past. I personally will never forget this history, and I will ensure my descendants never forget either.
Well because of their collaboration the Korean economy improved greatly. Look at the difference between the anti-Japanese independent North and the South. Before Japanese colonization Korea was dirt poor, worse than African countries
Another point not often thought about is that a peace treaty has not been signed. So doesn’t that mean that if forward, a breakout UN resolution is still active and would require previous participants such as Turkey, Australia, Belgium, the Netherlands, and other countries that participated in 19 50-53 war?
Strange that you just say “Forced labour” to describe Japan raping Korean women on an industrial scale during WWWII . Why do you use this euphemism to obfuscate Japan’s war crimes in Korea?
North Korea did in fact export their Nuclear Weapons Technology, under the guise of "disarmament" in circa 2002, they shipped a reactor to Syria in secrecy in return of some 2 Billion USD from Iran in Cash allegedly. Said reactor was built in utter secrecy on a separate isolated grid. The Reactor was destroyed in Operation "Outside the Box" 2007 by the IAF.
The last video provided by the armed services of the United States must be based or sourced from a movie that a new conscript would have been shown back in the 1960s of 1970s. I am sure that I would have watched this when I arrived in South Korea back in 1968, but instead I was sent to South Vietnam to fill a position in an intelligence unit as an officer in the army there attached to the 11 Corps Zone based in Nha Trang. Interesting that they end this up to date presentation with a video dating back 50 years!
Final is logistics, war requires very good logistics, as you could see in the Russian invasion of Ukraine, which was a disaster for them. What makes you think that the DPRK has good logistics
@@edwarda9403I would say regional because they have nuclear arms capabilities. Those on their own greatly increase power projection. And that doesn't take into account their highly militarized society.
My favorite scene of NoKo people fighting the system is this old lady running a bus service that's really just like a cart that carries people around the countryside and they try to shut her down and she and all of her passengers tell the constabulary agent to kick rocks 🎉
This is one of the best documentaries about North Korea. The supporting inserts are well chosen and do an excellent job of explaining the psychology of members of the ruling class of North Korea. Excellent job!
A lot of words but very monodimensional narative. When talking about this kind of regime one should have in mind that only mean of survival for them is to invent threats and costantly threat oponents. And grab countries and teritories when possible.
My favorite part of Korean history is when Jesus Christ came out from the clouds and shot a rainbow down to bless the Kim family 😂 Big ups to the imaginations of the Koreans that actually believe that happened
@@HamJeong I grew up with South Koreans with great imaginations and we spent many days playing StarCraft fully immersed in our worlds of space battles, but their sisters all thought we were insane, I have to think that it's like the X-Files and you've got Mulder who wants to believe, and Scully the eternal skeptic.
I have lived in South Korea since 2003 and often have Koreans come up to me and express their appreciation for the intervention of the UN forces under the leadership of the United States in the Korean War. Without that intervention, all of Korea would have been united under the leadership of North Korea and the whole of the country would have been communist in the style of North Korea. We forget that within one month of the time when the UN joined the war, nine tenths of South Korea had been over run by the extremely motivated and trained forces of North Korea that had been recently allowed to return to North Korea after fighting in China with communist Chinese armies. The end of the civil war in China occurred one year, 1949, before the invasion, June 1950, of South Korea. Russia provided the T34 tanks and the arms while a year prior, the U.S. troops had left South Korea, and South Korea there for had no tanks. The South Koreans were at a major disadvantage at the start of the Korean War and that explained why the North Korean forces were so successful in the first month and one half of the invasion.
Kim Jong-Un, cutest dictator in the history of the world and if he ever sheds his baby chubby widdle cheeks, the entire DPRK system is going to fall apart
North Korean soldiers are well-trained and very motivated. Their doctrine and capability of military generals might be questionable. But their weapons work and very durable. War in Africa, Middle East, and Ukraine have proved the quality of Soviet weapons. China always help poor victim countries in natural disaster. Russia has good fame in helping others fight terrorists. The country has done well fighting the threat from S. Korea the the US. They always conduct military drill near Demilitarized zone, the drill is about bombing and attacking North Korea conducting near North Korean border! I wonder what would happen if Russia or China regularly hold joint military drill near US' border or water near US coast on the scale of tens of thousands with real weapons. The drill has the US military as imaginary enemy, the military exercise is to attack US heartland with the first strike policy. 'We must safeguard our allies - Mexico and Cuba. We must contain the US for the sake of world peace, ' said Chinese/Russian generals in joint military exercise. The big bully does not want peace in the Far East, huh?! It must be suck living next to a 'US ally(satelite state).'
lol thats funny. Im sure you would love living in North Korea, China or even Russia where theres no freedom of speech to say what you want without having consequences hahahah
@@p12remakeisreal That's right. But they are better under Kim Jong Un. He cares about his people. Kim Jong Un's dad was awful leader. People suffered. Not to mention the Soviet disintegration dealt heavy blow to many countries including North Korea. You aren't better. Who is the last good POTUS? I am not talking about capability or IQ. I mean the president who cares about average joe or average Jane.
@@DavidFerguson-k4u Do you have any proof that Koreans under Kim Jongun live bad life? I believe in him.. He is a kind soul. The smile and brightness in his eyes do not lie. He is humane.
Wrong and biased history. These guys say the United States defeated Japan. Then they preceed to say that the USSR invaded all of Manchuria, Shakavilin Islands, North Korea and the Kuril Islands and crushed the Imperial Japanese military there. All regions where the bastion of the Japanese Imperial military was based in😂 How come can you claim you defeated Japanese when you then admit thst the Soviets destroyed the cream of the crop of their Imperial military forces bastion? Secondly they forgot to mention a lot of details such as the fact that all the leaders that emerged as the South Korea were Koreans who had served in the Japanese military as Japanese Collaborators during WWII. Many of them had been involved in terrible war crimes against the Korean people and other Asian peoples when they served in the Japanese Imperial military. Meanwhile communists were the resistance forces against Japanese Imperial occupation during WWII. Moreover, as soon a the Koreans who collaborated with the Japanese during Japanese colonial occupation took over they began to target and killing communist sympathizers, forbade the forming of any trade unions in the South. They also forget to mention how the United States carried out a genocidal incendiary bombing campaign of North Korea that literally killed 3 million Koreans, thst targeted civilians destroyed entire North Korean cities, towns, infrastructure and unleashed unimaginable destruction and devastation on the Korean people in North Korea. Historically North Korea was the industrialized center and mining center of the Korean Peninsula. South Korea was the agricultural and food basket of the Korean peninsula. North Korea was also outperforming South Korea economically up until the mid to late 1970s. After what happened in Ukraine in 2014 I will never believe on face value what any American historian says about the history of any place. I always make sure I do my own research and listen to the people of the region about their own history and what truly happened. There are a few exceptions, but American historians like to tell the history of places in a way that makes themselves look good and other countries and people's not so good. The relationship between South Korea and the United States is a pure tributary vassal one. South Korea is nothing but an American tributary vassal state without any independent foreign or defense policy. So is Japan and Taiwan. You can say anything about North Korea, but they refuse to subjugated to American Imperialist rule like South Korea does. There is a lot of things we hear about North Korea and they are all false and untrue. Even a lot of testimony we hear from North Korean defectors is colored by let's just say US, NED, CIA funding. All Korean and Japanese leader are vetted by the CIA and the US government before they are allowed to be leaders of their own parties. Take everything you hear about North East Asia from so called American experts with a huge grain of salt as speak to local people and historians to hear their own perspective. That is my advice.
Say what you want....NO ONE with any brains would choose to live in the communist world versus the west...no country is without flaws but the countries YOU defend... Are the very WORST societies humanity has to offer...other than purely theocratic countries...
SigManRi, the leader of South Korea in the first decade and one half after 1945, never collaborated with the Japanese. He spent most of his first 60 years in the US. He received his Ph.D from Princeton University. He was extremely anti communist and pro democracy while having dictatorial tendencies because South Korea was under great threat from communist forces both within and without. He saved South Korea from communism. He was also very strong willed and often disagreed with the US in his anti communist policies.

You are actin the same with animal, if they follow your sistem are intelligent if they act as God created them you consider them stupid !!
Delusional, incoherent gibberish. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and charitably assume English isn't your first language but in case you didn't watch the video or haven't actually looked into the history of Korea -the North were the ones that invaded the South and to this day threaten in their own words to annihilate the ROK... America isn't perfect but compared to the tyranny based in Pyongyang it is night and day. Try to be serious.

Your first sentence I know is the subject of legitimate debate. The implication however I find very troubling.
Until the late 80s, and the hiccup at the start of the 90s was the opposition's fault really.
Excellent! I learned a lot!

technically yes

Strange that you just say “Forced labour” to describe Japan raping Korean women on an industrial scale during WWWII .
Why do you use this euphemism to obfuscate Japan’s war crimes in Korea?
"Forced labor" references more than just the "comfort" women.
There was like a whole lot of actual forced labor, that's probably why they talked about forced labor

Regional is stretch. Local power is more accurate
@@edwarda9403how?

@@antoniobautista6718 1 school of thought is that the Nokos with nukes are the only thing keeping the Chicoms from taking over the whole peninsula

This video is factually incorrect: North Korea has officially renounced unification with South Korea.
Outdated, that was their policy until recently and was probably the policy when these interviews took place.
They renounce peaceful unification theoretically they could still use military force to do it.
This is a recent official change in the policy of North Korea. By recent I mean it was proclaimed in the last few months of 2023.
Yes Kim Jong un really likes the outline of the north. He wants that curved shape and 2 countries as opposed to one Korea
My favorite part of Korean history is when Jesus Christ came out from the clouds and shot a rainbow down to bless the Kim family 😂 Big ups to the imaginations of the Koreans that actually believe that happened

North Korea won the Korean War they have more Korea overall the majority of its land and face. The outline of North Korea is really nice
No unilateral changes to the status quo- dont be like Kim Ho Noriega Hussein Putin Chinese in Malaysia Charles Taylor etc
North Korea is the most powerful country in the world
