its actually impressive how a 11 year old can speak a nearly perfect brittish english
Same
not really. If she went to an international or English school, in china probably as her dad was the ambassador (I think that's what sam said), she learnt it there.
She most probably studied outside DPRK for some years, or had private tutors, considering she is part of the elite.
had to laugh when she said bonkers, its like you taught someone perfect british english without ever having seen the UK
@@jonas1015119 yes exactly. that one seemed so out of place...well maybe because it literally is
Never thought I'd see the day where I hear a North Korean 11-year-old say "bonkers" in a perfectly British accent, but here we are.
Flipping bonkers, yeah?
As someone who lives in great Britain I can promise you that's NOT a British accent. I mean. There is no such thing as a British accent. But I mean it's not an accent you'd hear anywhere in the British isles.
I'm not deriding her language skills which are amazing. Just saying
The most surprising thing I learned today is that youtube wasn't banned in North Korea until 2016
Basically no one even had access to the internet in North Korea until recently, so they probably just didn't even have to bother banning it for the longest time.
No point banning it if nearly the entire country is restricted from accessing the internet in the first place.
That was when VPNs became popular.
There is even an Indonesian RUclipsr (Jaka Parker) who used to upload videos of his everyday life in the privileged diplomatic district of Pyongyang. It's a bit more run down than what those fake influencers are showing.
They probably just realized RUclips existed in 2016.
When I was a kid in hospital, I never forgot why I was there, no matter how many cartoons were on the walls.
those where no NK cartoons so... who knows.
@@sirBrouwer NK Kids cartoon characters: "Remember, if you die here: you will be processed and eaten"
Huh, Suddenly I've forgotten why I'm here. Strange.
this are NK cartoons, they have magic powers or something.
Just a sign of how obviously deficient your hospital was compared with the futuristic achievements of Best Korea.
well you obviously weren't in a coma
“This video sponsor is way cooler and better than North Korea” must have really make the marketing team at Factor happy.
Two Stars!

Probably better food than is available in North Korea, surprised he didn't say that. A relatively low bar, but relevant to the video and surely not wrong.

very bold of you to assume that they are capable of taking their child to hospitals
I really loved how Song'A gave such a natural and heartfelt endorsement of the children's hospital. Clearly her opinions and adventures are genuine average fun times for the people of Best Korea and I should go visit right away.
Kim flunky: "Song-A, our 'Dear Leader' would like you to make DPRK propaganda videos."
Song-A: "Sod off, you wanker! I'm not bloody interested in glorifying that fat little toss-pot."
Kim flunky: "Oh, look, isn't that your family perched precariously over 'Dear Leaders' crocodile pool?"
It sounded like a great place to visit until they revealed that their Mothers Day is in November. 😞 That's too bonkers for me.
@@brianw1620 Don't worry, I'm sure there's a special camp where three generations of your family can all go to learn about why you're wrong. All who survive will be delighted to enjoy November Mother's Day!
No, see, calling it Best Korea implies there is more than one Korea. There is only one Korea.

The young one has that RP English. It's quite telling about the education she has had.
For real, she sounds like my Speaking Class prof
I don’t think even upper class Brits have RP accents any more. If you listen to the way King Charles speaks compared to the way his sons speak, you hear quite a difference.
Yeah very clearly went to an extra extremely upper class type private school to end up with that accent.
I doubt she is truly educated, so much as heavily trained specifically for propaganda. Try to ask her general academic questions, and it's almost certain glaring holes in her "education" would become apparent.
@@pacoramirez7363 that's what I said
I love how the girl describing the “football” match sounds like shes reading a translated description of what people do at sports events.
Whatever do you mean? I too have personal opinions regarding the results of sporting matches and other forms of popular entertainment.
Tbh the creepiest part of this(not really) is the amount of filters. You can't escape the ultra creepy body image ruining filters even in North Korea.
as if Photoshop doesn’t exist in America??
@@jakestar121 Do you not know what the word “even” means or are you just intentionally ignoring its existence?
Well most of them don't have Internet, tv and most Magazines (as opposed to magazines like Vogue) will be propaganda and just propaganda)
When you see their hand, and the fingers don't have nails, you know there's a lot of filters.
I hope it's only just because of the filters..
I know people say North Korea is decades behind the rest of the world, so it's only appropriate that SongA speaks English like she's a 1950s English housewife.
I'd love it if she had a more interesting accent, like Babs Windsor in the Carry On films, or Vicky Pollard!
Yeah because the rest of the world bombed them to hell and then sanctioned them, have you no shame?
Her accent was great actually.
and the sound quality is on par
it's literally like listening to old radio
As a British person I noticed that immediately. Her fluency in English and that region-free received accent is an absolute hallmark of someone who is from an extremely privileged background and has been immersed in the language in a very refined setting, i.e. with top-tier tutors or a hugely expensive British international school.
I knew another girl who was also like that. She was mainland Chinese who studied at Oxford them Cambridge, now lives and works in London. The generic British name she had adopted for herself, her 100% fluent English and the regionless accent - I didn't realise she was actually from China, instead assumed she was British-born and had grown up here.
It's also rumoured that Xi Jinping's daughter is the exact same and that she enrolled and graduated from Oxford under a false name.
Song-A's british accent is so very odd, like some aristocratic british accent
That's very much by design. You can speak multiple languages with a native accent if you start early enough. She's definitely had a good English education starting from a very young age.
If she's from an elite family in North Korea she has likely attended private school somewhere in Europe and the UK is a likely option given how little transparancy there is there. Same reason why Switzerland is popular among NK elites.
@@bgezal No, it's Received Pronunciation i.e. non-regional.

oh, i thought it based on Transatlantic
@@karaqakkzl
Imo it is. It's all just slightly wrong for received pronunciation. I suspect she watched old films to learn the accent.

I’m shocked they don’t have the youtubers be in their late 20s to early 40s. I imagine most people that would travel to North Korea would be in that age range.
My guess is they're trying to get impressionable kids to follow them, hoping the kids will grow up with a positive image of the country and already be brainwashed by the time they learn anything about the country in school
@@JoelMatton fair point
Also, late 20s to early 40s are likely to appreciate kids just out of instinct (child bearing age)
i bet that they use younger children so that the videos can be used in classrooms in their friendly nations
@@JoelMattonIn all honesty, today's kids will grow up brainwashed even if they don't watch DPRK's propaganda videos.
This makes me feel like I'm not crazy in thinking that some of the videos I've been recommended recently about NK history and culture were way too... generous in their portrayal. I had a video pop up about food shortages and one about the power grid and both ended up concluding that if it wasn't for the west NK would be the greatest place on earth to live and I could taste the propaganda. I was surprised because the videos looked and were presented like real educational videos but by the end I was really uncomfortable
Do you remember the names of the video's/channels?
They might also just be tankies.
How long before the Trump supporters start telling each other that North Korea is actually cool.
To be honest - a lot of false information and overreaching conclusions were made about NK in last 2 decades. Many of those were created by tabloids and clickbait pages in order to gain attention - that's how those things work. When it comes to NK you have people like Yeomni Park who made her career on making claims about NK and she made a lot of stories over the years. She is living on her status as NK refugee, so it is beneficial to her to gain attention from media - and shock and tabloid level stories are easiest to sell.
@@hedgehog3180 tankies are so weird. I can understand seeing the merits of communism, but clearly countries like China and North Korea are not liberal paradises lmao. It’s like they like being stomped on with a boot
I'm suspicious of the claim that these channels are receiving revenue from RUclips, unless the creators are registered outside of North Korea. The economic sanctions apply to RUclips.
Probably just a joke
Well google broke sanctions against Ru, so I would not out it oast them!
People make a LOT more money if they make propaganda shitting on North Korea, you can be paid tons by goverments themselves to do that.
Didn't youtube defend a r*ssian pr*paganda channel stealing someone's content because they were making a f*ck ton of ad revenue?
Yea aint no way yt is making deposits to NK bank accounts wth lol
Regular people are allowed onto the national intranet. It's the global Internet that is banned for the vast majority of citizens.
As for smartphones, this is not that wierd among Pyongyang or Wonsan residents. North Korea has a semi-domestic cellphone manufacturing industry that modifies Chinese models of phone to be compatible with North Korean tech. They are expensive for the average person to afford, but not unobtainable. Curiously, one of the biggest factors for smartphones there is actually battery capacity due to the unreliable electricity.
Note however that this does not mean there is no surveillance on the national intranet and even offline activities. North Korean Linux and Android variants store the ID of the device in files that are created there and have spyware built in. There has been recent evidence if similar functionality in NTFS and it would be astonishing to me if the NSA doesn't have the ability to get into most consumer hardware in the west, so it's hardly unique that North Korea spies on their Internet users, but make no mistake, installing RedStar is almost certainly giving the DPRK government access to your machine. Which in many ways would be fine. However, their desparation for hard currency to keep the economy solvent means that I'm not sure I trust they wouldn't install ransomware or a cryptominer.
Similarly to cellphones access to the Kwangmyong network is limited not by active state repression but by the fact that only the elites are given computers or the electricity to run them.
What is the intranet??? EXPLAIN!!!
@@polygontower An intranet is just a closed computer network not connected to the Internet (which is actually a network of computer networks, hence the term “INTERnet”)
The part about North Koreans being under surveillance is quite hilarious, like, come on. You can't point fingers while having the NSA and watchlists xD
Those kids’ accents are suspiciously south-east England private school🤔
Probably not Eton, they're still boys only, I think the kids are both female, and - in any case - take only kids aged 13 and over, these children are definitely too young.
I do agree though, they've definitely been shipped off to some prestigious British prep-school or other, like so many other kids from rich families in impoverished and oppressive countries.
And another part of the way they talk is suspiciously like they are anxious about their life.
" S-ome say t-that t h ose", etc.
In all seriousness it’s possible they might have gone to boarding school in a neutral country in Europe. Kim Jong-un himself was educated in Switzerland.
3:21 TERF CONFIRMED MADE ME LAUGH OUT LOUD 😭
As a British person, Song Ah sounds like she learned English from the 1950s.
That’s also how North Koreans in general sound to Korean-speakers, because the peninsula was partitioned after World War II and the South’s dialect changed
Maybe she learned by watched My Fair Lady and Mary Poppins or at least Veruca Salt.

@@vladalgov1770 Russia is having to forcefully conscript it's people to go into Ukraine, and lying to them about how well it's going every step of the way. That is Putin's War, the average Russian doesn't want anything to do with it, which is why they have to be lied to the whole way
Even if you come up with a valid reason to be afraid of a person from X or Y country in particular, I think average North Koreans rank pretty low on my list. What am I scared of, getting tapeworms?
What's so fascinating is that NONE of the RUclipsrs mentioned speak North Korean dialect in their videos. They all speak British English.
while talking about internet accessibility in the DPRK, you mention that only a small percentage of North Koreans have it. However, according to a South Korean 38 North research, there more that 6,5 million smartphone users in the DPRK. And this number is constantly growing, while North Korea is producing its own phone models.
But those smart phones do not have internet.
There are physical app stores in Pyongyang.

@@TheGrinningViking Biden is being very careful not to cross that line while not allowing Russia to do what Germany was doing shortly before WWII. It’s Putin who’s brought us this close, and it’s not as close as you think. Putin isn’t the only person whose approval is required to launch (the US also requires more than one person). Even if he has gone nuts, the others will still prefer Russia to exist over occupying Ukraine for the next 5 to 20 years.
Even if it escalates, like if Russia hit a NATO country and a no fly zone was enforced over Ukraine or NATO forces drive Russia out of Ukraine, as long as they stayed behind Ukrainian borders, Russia would suffer no threat to their sovereignty, only their collective ego, and that’s already in the toilet because of the spectacular incompetence shown by their rulers and their military, revealing Russia to be a paper tiger whose only real threats are information operations and nukes, which guarantee self annihilation.
