Thanks for the kind words and love your channel! We've just started out so we don't have much of a fan base... Feel free to share it if you're keen to spread the word and help us out :)
I think ReviewBrah supports North Korea. He even had a music playlist with a song about Kim Il-sung on it. It is either he supports it or he's really interested in it. I hope it is that he supports it because I support the DPRK. EDIT: I made this comment three years ago when I was a cringe DPRK supporter. I no longer support North Korea. And in regards to the music playlist, it's no longer on his channel. Also, it was stupid of me to have suggested that ReviewBrah supports North Korea given how much he enjoys eating food. However, it is clear that he is interested in the country and is obviously not a fan of the sensationalism about North Korea in the media.
Sources in the hermit kingdom Australia report that every citizen is forced to be an insufferable hipster douchebag with a manbun. Even the women are made to get manbuns according to our sources, who add that their government claims to have discovered a real example of the fictional creature known as a dropbear.
Leftists, progressists and SJW think they are SO different and unique with their "out of the ordinary" style, but in fact they are just another mainstream trend. It's the same with their ideology.
The ironic hair cut gag in Newtown was brilliant! "same hair cut as everyone else? oh no way we're all individuals here that don't and wont conform" said the manbun to the manbun about all the other manbuns.
@@tja4379 which time period do you time traveller come from? I have tattoos and it's just because I think skin can look prettier with little cute drawings all over not because I'm "rebellious" or "non-conformistic", actually it's been pretty normalized at this point, I dont think a lot of people see tattoos as a sign of rebellion or non conformism anymore unless the specific tattoo purposefully displays these ideas
This video is a great example of “NOBODY is immune to propaganda”. It’s just a matter of critically thinking for yourself and attempting to flock towards the least harmful versions of it.
Yeah but, while most news created by western medias about North Korea are fake, you do realize its a god awful nation to live in right? Dont come telling me that the US is worse because at least you get food on the US

@@cory_thelizardv2946 oh no I know it’s seriously great not over there but I’m more referring to the “everyone has a haircut like Kim Jong un” and “no sarcasm” sorta stuff
@@cory_thelizardv2946 I mean, I dont want to sound like some filthy symmetrist, they went there and filmed what they seen as interesting. Usually when people visit countries like US, they dont film abuse, police brutality or inside of camp of drug addicts in central LA. In US journey vlogs you would see happy people, US landmarks, great food etc. Restricted zones are in every country in the world, in the west you can just get away with publishing more stuff, but still to some point, after that you can get legaly arrested or quietly silenced. I think you missed the main point of that video, to look at somebody elses backyard without even looking deeply into problems of our own.
@@cory_thelizardv2946 i think it's more so the fact that most news we hear about the north korea is probably heavily filled with propaganda (seen particularly in the terminology they use, e.g., prison camp rather than prison) so as to put the country in a bad light, when in reality most people dont do their due diligence to research on such news information, even the absurd ones like the one about the haircut. this short documentary ought to help people to keep the beliefs they hold in check. and yeah i agree traveling to north korea as a tourist doesn't necessarily allow you to see the whole truth about the country. I also like the fact that they pointed out similar issues america has done/been involved with, important similarities that i think are sometimes neglected because of built in bias
Armies have artillery and air support and a combined arms doctrine that makes them well suited to fight other armies to destroy hard targets or hold territory. A deathsquad is like 40 guys, and like 5 of them have Aks and the other 35 have machetes and they're only really suited to wiping out civilians. Using an army as a deathsquad is stupidly innefficient because you didn't need to pack this much firepower for that village. Using a bunch of deathsqudas as an army is inneffective. The deathsquads would just lose the fight really quickly. The thing to point out is that America is both the largest funder of armies and the largest funder of deathsquads on the globe.
@@ChangedMyNameFinally69 Sanctions have killed as many civilians as death-squads and armies put together in the last 20 years. Those also aren't death-squads.

I like the part where the people they interview say they wouldn't get a haircut because someone else was doing it despite them all having such long luxurious hair
That part really stuck out to me, whilst they slate a country for allegedly not allowing free choice and everyone must conform, they are unconsciously doing the same. They’ve been taught “long hair and wearing whatever you want = not confirming”, so to the guys with long hair in this vid probably think they’re free thinking, non-conforming, and unique, but they’re a dime a dozen.
@@ZombieSazza That's a big reach tho since all of them had their hair in different lengths and they all had it tied or styled in different ways. By that logic every woman on the entire world with long hair has the same style lol

@@dang476 Is it propaganda? Probably. The question then is, what is not propaganda? Every media outlet is propaganda, a video is biased just by the positioning of a camera, the angles etc. Every video, photo and text has the makers bias in it, whether unintentional or intentional. The only exception to this in many people's minds seems to be their own nation's preferred news channels, which are of course propaganda. The only people I don't trust is those who don't make their alignments, funding and biases clear. And you know sure as shit no capital owned media makes it clear that its one and only goal is serving capital.
Omfg the unspoken comedy of him interviewing a bunch of brown/blonde haired tall men about North Koreans having the same haircut was fucking hilarious. I started laughing even before he started to point it out fuckin amazing.

Yeah and did u see how many people walked by that had completely different haircuts, he self picked them probably for this reason to make it out like everyone has the same haircut there when they dont.
I've never thought about it this way, I'm truly ignorant about this type of stuff, it's insane how media dehumanizes people, I hate to admit it but honestly we should do better to understand the world instead of alienating each other
@@warthunder9155 Yeah cool... superpowers arbitrarily split your country in half and then you're guilty of invading yourself. Imperialist logic is amazing.
@@Boy_Boy do you have issues with America and the soviet union or just America? The split is literally the fault of the soviets. Please give me a solid argument as to how it was both super powers or America's fault.

@@Boy_Boy funny how America going to war and objectively making people's lives better is imperialism, while communist do the same thing is spreading the revolution, while objectively making life worse. Stop simping for murderous tyrants.
@@Boy_Boy hello. I have some genuine question. I've been trying to understand what's going on in the world, the horrible loss of human lives, killings even worse the people justifying taking other humans lives and so on.. it looks like never ends. What's troubling me is that I can not see things in any perspective other than 'good vs evil'. I came across some posts telling how horrible propaganda is in socialist counties and how disillusioned people from free countries trying to preach socialist countries as the good ones, some times I agree with one side other times I feel ostracised from majority because I feel for another side. Also, I believe people do what they think is right at that moment and definitely nobody has ill intent for their fellow men, so the strictness and authoritarianism handled by some countries maybe due to the things they experienced in past or to protect a collapse in future, but I don't know what my place in all this should be. If you read all this then you'd realise I'm confused about all this, but really want to learn about things and develop thinking abilities that help me take a stand without feeling like I'm wrong. Again, I'm stuck in this good vs evil binary narrative which makes me feel guilty for taking a stand at all. This can help me not only to understand political climate, but also to help me grow as a person to take firm decisions. I could've asked this to anyone, but I just came across this video and you seem to respond to many comments. I'm in my mid 20s, feeling somewhat lost about not having achieved a lot in this fast paced culture always celebrating about winning and succeeding in life, and I am not even sure if it's okay to ask you this ,but can give some advice about anything, and especially learning about politics like something unbiased book or any other resources? Anything will be helpful. Not just resources to learn, but also your opinion please. Thank you.
@@raw_dah I feel you. I think the conclusion I've reached to give myself closure on that sort of thing is that it's human nature to try to find patterns - that's how we've survived as a species. When it comes to complex social structures, though, the narrative of a binary to simplify and hence understand the social structure just fails. But people cling to it anyway. I think so long as you go forward questioning the things you read, you will be fine. Keep those things in mind, but don't let it turn into pessimism, as much as you can. There really are people out there like you who also want to see the world in a balanced way, and challenge their biases. I think the best way to challenge biases is to try to imagine you're on the "other side" of the discussion. In this video, boy boy talks a lot about "imagine what it's like living in north korea and ...", and that's the kind of approach you want to take. Question both sides' perspectives, though, and really ask yourself "is there any other reason things are seen this way?", or "are there any other explanations?". Nobody is infalliable, and if you realise you need to challenge views you've had in the past, you will almost always grow from doing so.
@@raw_dah I just want to add - you say you feel lost in life not having achieved a lot. Success is measured in a lot of different ways, and I hope you achieve success in the ways which matter to you. In saying that, not many people are worried about the things you're worrying about; you've got a good head on your shoulders, I think, and you should feel some assurance in that.
I learned more about the Korean War in the first three minutes of this video than I learned in US history classes in high school. Which is a low bar because we didn’t talk about it at all, it was very much “WE won WWII and then nothing ever happened again”
@@jamesrowlands8971 Jesus fucking christ, no I did not but that's horrifying. Rebranding the war as the "Forgotten War" was such an effective and nefarious strategy, it makes it sound like it's not even really worth talking about but the more you learn about it the more you realize that it's just a lot more beneficial to America to intentionally forget we did that. And then the cherry on top is making sure the only thing Americans ever hear about the Korean War unless they feel compelled to look into it is "there were a bunch of American POWs we didn't get back."
@@syd5380 some of the POWs actually defected to the North Korean side because they witnessed what we did to them. Not only that, but the Chinese inflicted the longest retreat US forces have ever had to conduct on them. There's quite a lot of interesting and quite macabre facts about this war.
They were reading out of a North Korean propaganda book, it's not what actually happened. Korea was never united under a socialist government. After Japan was defeated, the US and the USSR installed socialist/military governments in the North and South. The US even went to the UN and proposed that the Korean people should be able to choose their government but North Korea refused to participate. PLUS don't forget that the Korean War was started by North Korea, they invaded the South first...
@@DanielBlak why are you lying when claiming that they're the ones spouting propaganda? It was the US backed fascist regime that refused elections, and massacred people for organising.
People really are oblivious to the Korean War? Over a million Chinese troops poured across the border and pushed the Allies back to the 38th parallel and Douglas McArthur got shit canned because he pushed so hard to Nuke the Chinese
@@issadraco532 LMAO everything you just said was hilariously wrong. been drinking that US propaganda juice, eh? unable to view things with nuance and shades of grey?

Great job guys, well made video. Ps. There's is artist called: Haircuts for men. Genre: Vaporwave, Downtempo, Instrumental Hip-Hop.
ah yes haircuts for men. Other artists like macroblank, male alchemy and Oblique Occasions also have the same style and are also great barber beats artists
This was just a sad video. Trying to compare and conflate documented criminals breaking laws vs documented family members getting thrown into prisons where they face hard labor, rape and execution for the 'crimes' (speaking against the govt) their family members committed. Amnesty International has released their own reports on North Koreas prison numbers that show North Korea has more prisoners per capita, although their official numbers would make you believe they basically have none. These guys seem like literal trash propaganda, but I see this was posted when this kind of anti-west stuff was popular. When the last American president was in.
"The US is increasingly being held nuclear hostage." Isn't that true of every country in a world where any country has nuclear weapons and the will to use them?
Not to mention America has a system in place that will fire all available nukes if they're to be hit with one - making it a really bad idea to nuke them
@@deletedchannel2379 M.A.D. Mutually Assured Destruction was employed as an agreement with the US and Russia so if one fires on the other all fire everything I guess as a fuck you from both and a stalemate. Who gives a crap who did what if everyone fires its not like either government gives a damn what the citizens feel towards launching all nukes... If a country launches a single nuke its a big deal for the entire world and could pose a serious threat the any citizen of any country. Never forget the I'll translated quote, "Now I am become death, destroyer of worlds" as he saw the first nuke detonate. Largest explosions ever created with not only a single blast but multiple shockwaves to tear through anything on top of heat that can turn sand to glass, leave radioactive fall-out, irradiate anything, and last for however long each Form of decaying material wants to hang around for. Sounds like a fun time 👍
If you're confused about all the brazilian people in this comment section, there has been a recent surge in marxist-leninist ideology over the past months within some sections of the country's internet and one of the most prolific brazilian communist channels (História Cabeluda) made a recent video discussing the international media's sensationalism with North Korea reacting to this video.
What I got from this video was not that North Korea is an amazing place, but to start reflecting inward on our own atrocities rather than focusing on a faraway foreign enemy

@@EthanPerales. watch "Loyal Citizens of Pyongyang". There around 10-30,000 north Koreans who work abroad and are only maybe about 10 total who run the media circuit talking about the "evils" of the DPRK. Even then, a lot of times what they say is debunked. Not to mention SK offers a $830,000 cash reward for defecting, and many NK citizens who are stuck in SK (because SK refuses to give them a passport) have said you can't make money doing media and interviews unless you make up lies About NK. Some have tried to share their positive experiences and the tv shows didn't want them or dissuaded them from saying anything like that
My grandfather (Oklahoman cattle farmer/oil man) fought in the Korean War, and came back with a drinking problem. He never talked about it and just pushed it back. I had no idea there were so many civilians killed, and the crazy parts about what Americans did like bringing back the Japanese.
not exactly Japanese-Japanese, but rather Korean traitors who worked for the Japs were put in government by the US, like if France was forced to keep the Vichy government after the war. President Park Chun Hee, and general Paik Sun-yup both were officers in the Japanese Army during WWII
It's pretty common in that period of history for America to depose democratically elected leaders if they were too "communist" and install a puppet regime. Just look at South America.
The American side in the Korean war was brutal and racist, including towards black soldiers. If they were awful and racist towards fellow soldiers, they were even more brutal towards Korean people
What a strange feeling! You made me look at people I don't know or really understand and see them for what they are... People like me. Who get or do not get haircuts just like me. Both of us told horrible stories about each other in order to keep us apart. Thanks for reminding me of this
Just like us! I love travelling and tourism, and it's always amazing to see that wherever you are or where you are from, people are just people. Next time I meet a tourist from North Korea, I will... wait a minute. Oh, that's right. Unless you are a high ranking politician or an Olympic level sportsman, you're not allowed to leave the country. Just like us! Wait... It's important to see North Koreans as real people with real lives and real joys. Yes, what countries like the US do and get away with is horrifying and devastating, but "well they did a bad, too" does not excuse the desecration of fundamental human rights. This video is blatant propaganda washing over the very real and undeniable atrocities going on in that dictatorship. It's a disservice to the very brave people who have escaped and shared their stories. It's a disservice to those who died trying but were shot in the DMZ, or were otherwise executed for their attempts at freedom, and to the families of escapees who were tortured and murdered as a warning to dissuade others from escaping and risking the slaughter of their loved ones. Those stories are every bit as real, and more reliable (in my opinion) than the very curated tours that North Korea is willing to offer influencers who are willing to portray their regime in a positive light.
@@arishasmile1905You missed the whole point, and this isn’t trying to be a snarky comment, as I used to hold a similar perspective until I learnt about the Korean War. If the west creates a false narrative about DPRK. Then as a westerner you cannot stand on that falsehood when you see the reality. Especially when you see how the action of the USA were very much the aggressive. With the DPRK much more defensive in reaction to war crimes/ human rights violations. But you probably soak up the propaganda of the so called USA “Department of Defense” @14:27 for a reminder of “defense”.
The difference is their horrible stories are true and come from the experience of being invaded and 10% of all Koreans massacred and every building larger than 2 stories destroyed and every dam broken, etc. America (and the broader "West") is the evil empire it projects others as.
@@TheFunkiestCatyou are missing the point of the video, North Korea though shown and prorated as bad has done nothing close to what bad things America has done. American media outlets over exaggerate North Koreas negative parts. Yes some of it is true most of it is not and is exaggerated.

I dont mean to be a downer, or fully write off the singing scene as inauthentic, but it is common for these singers or performers to be planted by NK, and shown to tourists/filmed in order to create Propaganda, making the country seem more normal and cheerful than it is.
@@jahvongrey5663 But that doesn't mean that the country isn't normal or less cheerful than any other country, as long as we don't really know how it is there it is all just a fantasy specially with all of the lies mixed with the truth we can't be sure. And for a country that is still in war they can't be showing weakness(that's my interpretation)
@@jahvongrey5663 you're right! Plus, no other countries are economically reliant in tourism and put on similarly flashy performances or events to draw in tourists and give them a better impression than they'd otherwise have of their country (like the every day lives of lower income people, especially in more rural areas) No, wait- By the way I'm not defending NK lmao but the idea that people in the city are only "actors" in the upper class is ridiculous (that's not exactly what you said but it seems to be the popular idea) "People in the city are just luckier over there, otherwise they'd have to work in the fields!" no shit, how does it work in YOUR country?
Thank you so much for this video. I didn't expect this such high quality content. You guys have just gained a new subscriber from italy. Keep up the good work!
It always amazed me how people will believe absolutely everything any media tells them about North Korea. Like, if anyone tells you that a country banned sarcasm, shouldn't common sense dictate that you identify this as a hoax immediately? It's kind of scary how powerful western propaganda is. As an Afghan, I learned that the hard way, when my people became the bad guys over night. Anyway, that was an amazing and brave video, guys. You are righteous men.
The reason why very few people didn't identify N Korea banning sarcasm is because its so close to reality if you say something as small as I don't like Kim Jong Un you will be killed in front of an audience and your family starved. Also don't talk about western governments when your government rapes and kills people for fun you are literally under the rule of the Taliban. Also don't you realize this video was made by a westerner does that make this western propaganda also this video sugar coated N Koreas atrocities so much if you want to know the truth then watch "The people's" documentary on North Korea also its not made by a westerner so you cant call that western propaganda.
This is part true (as people has exaggerated news about NK) but it's part true as they're painted a super good image of NK and that's also absolutely not the case: ua-cam.com/video/6fTXY0N355Y/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/sfq2BYB8K54/v-deo.html

I would say Aussie and US have the most in common based on culture, attitudes, and genocide of indigenous people (and continued disdain toward them).. I think Aussie's and American's probably have the worst reputation of all Western "Christian" free-market nations.
Maybe Americans are hated more since not all of us have to watch American propaganda, but we DO hear about the wars they are constantly starting and never finishing. Americans don't even realise they are at war! They seriously ask "what wars did we start?"
Wow watching this video as an American I just wanna say it’s scary I haven’t been taught a single thing about the Korean War and I’m willing to bet most of us haven’t
Yeah, It's the same here in Australia. We were involved in the Korean War too and we never hear anything about it. That's one of the main reasons we wanted to make this video.
Korean war was pretty decent compared to Vietnam at least the Korean war was more justified, in the sense that the north were aggressors and the south begged the us to come

If it wasn't under constant military threat NK wouldn't have to militarize to such an extreme degree just to survive the slaughter of the Korean war.

@@Poadiup North Korea is a "vassal state" of China. The country it is in war with doesn't have nukes or an isolationist totalitarian hereditary dictatorship instead it has Nuclear energy and one of the strongest economies. Considering its economic history its entire existence the way it is under the current regime is critically hard to justify beyond being China's geopolitical proxy of course.
@@Einygmar Yes and the south is a vassal state of the US... who it is also at war with. it was a brutal dictatorship for a while too until the cease fire and the south recovered with foreign capital investment. The US couldn't allow communism to spread and allow the Korean people the right to self determination and would repeat this same cycle of military violence against any people who reject American imperialism (Vietnam). Its also illegal to speak positively of the north in SK media so honestly bro I'm just asking you to question the things you think you believe because there's always another side to the story.
@@Poadiup SK is not a vassal state anymore it was for some time simillar to how Japan was but currently it is economically self sufficient and has one of the strongest economies. NK on the other hand gets the majority of its electricity supply from China and relies on russian grain supply. NK's regime has little to nothing in common with communism or with peoples right to self determination. It is a hereditary dictatirship with a centralized economy. My parents used to live in the USSR, probably the most "successful" of all Communist\socialist states of the time. Even there the life wasn't particullary good or free. You get what the government decides to give you because it thinks it's what you need due to the centralized planning nature of the economy. There's a tendency in communist\socialist-led states that all of the quality of life improvements are always related to the free market - oriented reforms and reintroduction of some forms of private ovnership of means of production as well as indtoduction of foreign capital. It happened with China during Deng Xiaoping, with Vietnam, Laos and Cuba and to the lesser extent with the USSR. The same thing is happening in NK because its original Juche based isolationist centralized economy starved a lot of people to death during the 90s and was only able to survive due to the extensive outside help. Even if its Its really illegal to speak positively of the north in SK media it is also impossible to say anything outside of what the party wants to say in NK media because there's no independent media at all. It's also illegal to smuggle anything from the south and the punishment is more severe compared to SK. It was like this in the USSR and currently is in NK.

@@shabath There isn't any. This guy literally prefers North Korea over the West. "What's wrong with North Korea? They haven't invaded anyone in 50 years!" *Literally in a perpetual state of war*
Honestly i would pay for a full fledge documentary of your trip there! Although I'm pretty sure you are on some 3-letter agency's list after this. I've always wanted to visit north korea. People call me crazy but sounds like such a unique experience! Thanks for the video!
Yeah, sure it could be an interesting experience, but after seeing people take trips there, I'd say it's simultaneously the most boring, and most batshit insane and terrifying trip to take. It's a preplanned "trip" in a preplanned area where you get to see preplanned activities. And if you even accidentally talk something bad of the country, the leader, party, national flag, portraits of their leaders, propaganda posters you'll go to prison or forced labour. A theatre is a cheaper and safer alternative for seeing acting.
@@Liukupukki how is that different than a lot of trips? All planned out. First we do this then we do this. All while people are showing u the tourist experience. Maybe them trying to show western people a western experience is their way of being hospitable while at the same time trying to encourage their own culture. Just like in America u would see the best of our country as a tourist here they want to show you the same.
@@dougfoster445 And you calling North Korea hospitable is just ridiculous. You're talking about the country that completely isolates it's people from the world, executes anyone trying to leave, brainwashes their people to believe their leader is a god and executes people who disagree. There is no hospitality in a country that is run by an oppressive dictator. Not saying the people aren't, they just don't know better. I just think you praising the country for things it clearly isn't is braindead.
7 years later and this is still probably THE best social commentary on how propaganda affects our modern society. You guys are absolute legends for making a video as gold as this, I wish it was taught in the history books.
Coming back to this six years later, it makes you think how often this happened before the age of information we find ourselves in now. Like, how many times have the people of many nations been lied to about one or a few other nations in an effort to create an image en masse?
And even when it's happening IRL & streamed live as it's happening, there's still SO MUCH propaganda that people still don't believe, or immediately get defensive when they hear the UN-verified, million-people-backed stance that Isr*el is committing gen*cide in Palest*ne.
I mean, the napoleon being short is quite well known, when it was a difference of measuring systems. There are ton of propaganda films in white and black that you can search, you won't get a quantitative number but you can start assuming always.
great video! I really liked the part at the end where you showed people just having fun. It's a good way to really drive home the whole point that North Korea isn't one big prison camp where everyone has to conform to some strange set of rules. It's so easy with what media and even schools say to forget that North Koreans are still actually humans and not mindless drones all clamoring to escape the rogue state they live in.
The reason it's hard to remember is because Capitalist countries have to make sensationalist claims so people see communists and socialists as "the bad guys". It's all by design, and it's our responsibility to help people see past that. It's why videos like this and "The Loyal Citizens of Pyongyang" are so important to archive and keep around.
So this is your argument against communism? Stalin continuing the war for a week to gain some land? Seriously? Fuck stalin in general, but seriously..?
Well that is really not much of a reply considering the vast content that should of been of interest. You should not be offended by my comments, in fact I am very proud of North Korea and those people who have struggled for decades and remained strong in the face of tyranny. There is nothing wrong with being a North Korean living in Germany, the only problem is when you say your German. It gets more complicated when their is a parent of either side, in which case that is why it is a situation best avoided and I say that with an absolute appreciation for the beauty and nature of Asian girls. I could easily fall in love with one, Please accept my apologies if I have upset you, but what kind of man would I be if I didn't write or speak the truth.
North Korea is a strong Nationalist country, opposed to the IMF, opposed to Israel. I do not like or use the horrible terminology of Left-Right, because that creates 2 opposing sides, when the idea is to bring everyone together. Considering that virtually all of the Western countries are "Left" or I prefer to say "Liberal", how can you state the DPRK is leftist when they are in fact almost totally opposite in policy. National Socialist Germany had peoples from all over the world welcome in Germany, they were never racist towards Black races or any other race for that matter. The issue of the Jew's is related to what the Jew's did to Germany and has nothing to do with their racial resemblance or the religion they followed. The Allied countries are the one's guilty of racism towards Black coloured races, most of the European countries and Germany do not have this history. The U.S.A and some of the regions of the Commonwealth this has occurred. There are Black coloured people who wore the Swastika proudly in WWII and others who wear it today. The Liberals just have no idea.

I heard about this film from an interview with the intrepid journalist Eva Bartlett. She goes where the establishment media fears to tread.
I think ReviewBrah supports North Korea. He even had a music playlist with a song about Kim Il-sung on it. It is either he supports it or he's really interested in it. I hope it is that he supports it because I support the DPRK.
EDIT: I made this comment three years ago when I was a cringe DPRK supporter. I no longer support North Korea. And in regards to the music playlist, it's no longer on his channel. Also, it was stupid of me to have suggested that ReviewBrah supports North Korea given how much he enjoys eating food. However, it is clear that he is interested in the country and is obviously not a fan of the sensationalism about North Korea in the media.

@@salt7456 to be fair, north korean students are allowed to an do study abroad

I also like the fact that they pointed out similar issues america has done/been involved with, important similarities that i think are sometimes neglected because of built in bias
"Death squads? I'm so glad our army has nothing to do with death" LOL
So, this actually isn't the way to go with that. The difference between an army and a deathsquads are what they are and what they do.
Armies have artillery and air support and a combined arms doctrine that makes them well suited to fight other armies to destroy hard targets or hold territory. A deathsquad is like 40 guys, and like 5 of them have Aks and the other 35 have machetes and they're only really suited to wiping out civilians. Using an army as a deathsquad is stupidly innefficient because you didn't need to pack this much firepower for that village. Using a bunch of deathsqudas as an army is inneffective. The deathsquads would just lose the fight really quickly. The thing to point out is that America is both the largest funder of armies and the largest funder of deathsquads on the globe.

That part really stuck out to me, whilst they slate a country for allegedly not allowing free choice and everyone must conform, they are unconsciously doing the same.

@@Boy_Boy
hello. I have some genuine question.
I've been trying to understand what's going on in the world, the horrible loss of human lives, killings even worse the people justifying taking other humans lives and so on.. it looks like never ends.
What's troubling me is that I can not see things in any perspective other than 'good vs evil'.
I came across some posts telling how horrible propaganda is in socialist counties and how disillusioned people from free countries trying to preach socialist countries as the good ones, some times I agree with one side other times I feel ostracised from majority because I feel for another side.
Also, I believe people do what they think is right at that moment and definitely nobody has ill intent for their fellow men, so the strictness and authoritarianism handled by some countries maybe due to the things they experienced in past or to protect a collapse in future, but I don't know what my place in all this should be.
If you read all this then you'd realise I'm confused about all this, but really want to learn about things and develop thinking abilities that help me take a stand without feeling like I'm wrong. Again, I'm stuck in this good vs evil binary narrative which makes me feel guilty for taking a stand at all. This can help me not only to understand political climate, but also to help me grow as a person to take firm decisions.
I could've asked this to anyone, but I just came across this video and you seem to respond to many comments.
I'm in my mid 20s, feeling somewhat lost about not having achieved a lot in this fast paced culture always celebrating about winning and succeeding in life, and I am not even sure if it's okay to ask you this ,but can give some advice about anything, and especially learning about politics like something unbiased book or any other resources? Anything will be helpful. Not just resources to learn, but also your opinion please.
Thank you.
Nice. Couldn’t believe Jon Stewart did a bit on them. Like, you still think it’s okay to do this same schtick? It was depressing.
@@raw_dah I feel you. I think the conclusion I've reached to give myself closure on that sort of thing is that it's human nature to try to find patterns - that's how we've survived as a species. When it comes to complex social structures, though, the narrative of a binary to simplify and hence understand the social structure just fails. But people cling to it anyway. I think so long as you go forward questioning the things you read, you will be fine. Keep those things in mind, but don't let it turn into pessimism, as much as you can. There really are people out there like you who also want to see the world in a balanced way, and challenge their biases. I think the best way to challenge biases is to try to imagine you're on the "other side" of the discussion. In this video, boy boy talks a lot about "imagine what it's like living in north korea and ...", and that's the kind of approach you want to take. Question both sides' perspectives, though, and really ask yourself "is there any other reason things are seen this way?", or "are there any other explanations?".
Nobody is infalliable, and if you realise you need to challenge views you've had in the past, you will almost always grow from doing so.
@@raw_dah I just want to add - you say you feel lost in life not having achieved a lot. Success is measured in a lot of different ways, and I hope you achieve success in the ways which matter to you. In saying that, not many people are worried about the things you're worrying about; you've got a good head on your shoulders, I think, and you should feel some assurance in that.
I learned more about the Korean War in the first three minutes of this video than I learned in US history classes in high school. Which is a low bar because we didn’t talk about it at all, it was very much “WE won WWII and then nothing ever happened again”
Did you know that they literally ran out of targets to bomb. They couldn't find any intact bridges, or buildings by the end.
@@jamesrowlands8971 Jesus fucking christ, no I did not but that's horrifying. Rebranding the war as the "Forgotten War" was such an effective and nefarious strategy, it makes it sound like it's not even really worth talking about but the more you learn about it the more you realize that it's just a lot more beneficial to America to intentionally forget we did that. And then the cherry on top is making sure the only thing Americans ever hear about the Korean War unless they feel compelled to look into it is "there were a bunch of American POWs we didn't get back."
@@syd5380 some of the POWs actually defected to the North Korean side because they witnessed what we did to them. Not only that, but the Chinese inflicted the longest retreat US forces have ever had to conduct on them.
There's quite a lot of interesting and quite macabre facts about this war.
They were reading out of a North Korean propaganda book, it's not what actually happened. Korea was never united under a socialist government. After Japan was defeated, the US and the USSR installed socialist/military governments in the North and South. The US even went to the UN and proposed that the Korean people should be able to choose their government but North Korea refused to participate. PLUS don't forget that the Korean War was started by North Korea, they invaded the South first...
@@DanielBlak why are you lying when claiming that they're the ones spouting propaganda? It was the US backed fascist regime that refused elections, and massacred people for organising.

@@NA-yq4pe look around on youtube there is good youtuber that talk about it there bad stuff going in the country but the west prefer to talk about fake news, lie and minor stuff going around in the country but everything is biased in a way i can recommend you The DPRK video from The People on youtube You can learn a little more about how the country really work
I have a chance to be convinced to change my opinion on NK, but I still have a few questions: What about the N Korean refugees? They're constantly saying shit about NK tho, and the fact that ofc the tourist cities aren't gonna be rife with visable corruption sooo?......
@@EthanPerales. watch "Loyal Citizens of Pyongyang". There around 10-30,000 north Koreans who work abroad and are only maybe about 10 total who run the media circuit talking about the "evils" of the DPRK. Even then, a lot of times what they say is debunked. Not to mention SK offers a $830,000 cash reward for defecting, and many NK citizens who are stuck in SK (because SK refuses to give them a passport) have said you can't make money doing media and interviews unless you make up lies About NK. Some have tried to share their positive experiences and the tv shows didn't want them or dissuaded them from saying anything like that

My grandfather (Oklahoman cattle farmer/oil man) fought in the Korean War, and came back with a drinking problem. He never talked about it and just pushed it back. I had no idea there were so many civilians killed, and the crazy parts about what Americans did like bringing back the Japanese.
not exactly Japanese-Japanese, but rather Korean traitors who worked for the Japs were put in government by the US, like if France was forced to keep the Vichy government after the war. President Park Chun Hee, and general Paik Sun-yup both were officers in the Japanese Army during WWII
It's pretty common in that period of history for America to depose democratically elected leaders if they were too "communist" and install a puppet regime. Just look at South America.
Maybe he drinks out of guilt? Best case scenario
The American side in the Korean war was brutal and racist, including towards black soldiers. If they were awful and racist towards fellow soldiers, they were even more brutal towards Korean people

What a strange feeling! You made me look at people I don't know or really understand and see them for what they are... People like me. Who get or do not get haircuts just like me. Both of us told horrible stories about each other in order to keep us apart. Thanks for reminding me of this
Just like us! I love travelling and tourism, and it's always amazing to see that wherever you are or where you are from, people are just people. Next time I meet a tourist from North Korea, I will... wait a minute. Oh, that's right. Unless you are a high ranking politician or an Olympic level sportsman, you're not allowed to leave the country. Just like us! Wait...
It's important to see North Koreans as real people with real lives and real joys. Yes, what countries like the US do and get away with is horrifying and devastating, but "well they did a bad, too" does not excuse the desecration of fundamental human rights. This video is blatant propaganda washing over the very real and undeniable atrocities going on in that dictatorship. It's a disservice to the very brave people who have escaped and shared their stories. It's a disservice to those who died trying but were shot in the DMZ, or were otherwise executed for their attempts at freedom, and to the families of escapees who were tortured and murdered as a warning to dissuade others from escaping and risking the slaughter of their loved ones. Those stories are every bit as real, and more reliable (in my opinion) than the very curated tours that North Korea is willing to offer influencers who are willing to portray their regime in a positive light.
@@arishasmile1905You missed the whole point, and this isn’t trying to be a snarky comment, as I used to hold a similar perspective until I learnt about the Korean War. If the west creates a false narrative about DPRK. Then as a westerner you cannot stand on that falsehood when you see the reality. Especially when you see how the action of the USA were very much the aggressive. With the DPRK much more defensive in reaction to war crimes/ human rights violations. But you probably soak up the propaganda of the so called USA “Department of Defense” @14:27 for a reminder of “defense”.
E
The difference is their horrible stories are true and come from the experience of being invaded and 10% of all Koreans massacred and every building larger than 2 stories destroyed and every dam broken, etc. America (and the broader "West") is the evil empire it projects others as.

17:56 im mexican and this entire sequence made me realize that my country culture and theirs isn't as different as theirs and in the end, even when both countries may suffer by a bad image from the news and by our government, we still find a way to have fun with our friends and spend the day without worries.
Man I absolutely adore the music in that segment
I dont mean to be a downer, or fully write off the singing scene as inauthentic, but it is common for these singers or performers to be planted by NK, and shown to tourists/filmed in order to create Propaganda, making the country seem more normal and cheerful than it is.
@@jahvongrey5663 But that doesn't mean that the country isn't normal or less cheerful than any other country, as long as we don't really know how it is there it is all just a fantasy specially with all of the lies mixed with the truth we can't be sure. And for a country that is still in war they can't be showing weakness(that's my interpretation)
Jesus loves yall, died for us, and rose again! Jesus calls for all of us to repent! He's coming back!
@@jahvongrey5663 you're right! Plus, no other countries are economically reliant in tourism and put on similarly flashy performances or events to draw in tourists and give them a better impression than they'd otherwise have of their country (like the every day lives of lower income people, especially in more rural areas)
No, wait-
By the way I'm not defending NK lmao but the idea that people in the city are only "actors" in the upper class is ridiculous (that's not exactly what you said but it seems to be the popular idea) "People in the city are just luckier over there, otherwise they'd have to work in the fields!" no shit, how does it work in YOUR country?

@@McDiezel079 true, but our media dehumanizes better. Just like the video’s point
Thank you so much for this video. I didn't expect this such high quality content. You guys have just gained a new subscriber from italy. Keep up the good work!
It always amazed me how people will believe absolutely everything any media tells them about North Korea. Like, if anyone tells you that a country banned sarcasm, shouldn't common sense dictate that you identify this as a hoax immediately? It's kind of scary how powerful western propaganda is. As an Afghan, I learned that the hard way, when my people became the bad guys over night.
Anyway, that was an amazing and brave video, guys. You are righteous men.
The reason why very few people didn't identify N Korea banning sarcasm is because its so close to reality if you say something as small as I don't like Kim Jong Un you will be killed in front of an audience and your family starved. Also don't talk about western governments when your government rapes and kills people for fun you are literally under the rule of the Taliban. Also don't you realize this video was made by a westerner does that make this western propaganda also this video sugar coated N Koreas atrocities so much if you want to know the truth then watch "The people's" documentary on North Korea also its not made by a westerner so you cant call that western propaganda.
This is part true (as people has exaggerated news about NK) but it's part true as they're painted a super good image of NK and that's also absolutely not the case:

@@maxkirchgessner468
TL;DR: Source(s): Dude trust me.
Good job proving both my and the videos point alike. Just spewing baseless and ridiculous accusations that every person with an average intellect would not believe, unless they are absolutely brainwashed and hell-bent on finding any potential fodder to fuel their disgusting hatred.
I have an advise for you. If someone tells you something about their enemy, don't blindly believe it.
Also you want to hear an accusation that is not baseless? Read the CIA torture report and tell me who is doing what, just for fun.
And considering you're too stupid to understand what western propaganda means, I don't think you want to participate in this, or any conversation amongst adults. Western propaganda is propaganda that furthers the west's imperialist agenda, regardless of who is spreading it. So your great documentary is indeed western propaganda, whereas this video is not, you moron. I know, your tiny brain likes to believe that you can deduce everything by just looking at a person's skin colour, but this is not the case.

I would say Aussie and US have the most in common based on culture, attitudes, and genocide of indigenous people (and continued disdain toward them).. I think Aussie's and American's probably have the worst reputation of all Western "Christian" free-market nations.
Maybe Americans are hated more since not all of us have to watch American propaganda, but we DO hear about the wars they are constantly starting and never finishing. Americans don't even realise they are at war! They seriously ask "what wars did we start?"

@@Boy_Boy well thank you for the very interesting video, it made me reevaluate a lot of things. Also what do you say about people like yeonmi park?

this isnt their daily lives... look up some statistics on poverty in North Korea.
@@majesticturtle3828 I mean yeah the poverty in my American neighborhood isn't nothing to joke about either. May I also reduce the American experience down to its worst cases of poverty?
But yes its truly a shame the American state cares little to help alleviate poverty anywhere let alone in NK.
If it wasn't under constant military threat NK wouldn't have to militarize to such an extreme degree just to survive the slaughter of the Korean war.
North Korea is just another place on this planet with its own geopolitical issues and history.
@@Poadiup North Korea is a "vassal state" of China. The country it is in war with doesn't have nukes or an isolationist totalitarian hereditary dictatorship instead it has Nuclear energy and one of the strongest economies. Considering its economic history its entire existence the way it is under the current regime is critically hard to justify beyond being China's geopolitical proxy of course.
@@Einygmar Yes and the south is a vassal state of the US... who it is also at war with. it was a brutal dictatorship for a while too until the cease fire and the south recovered with foreign capital investment.
The US couldn't allow communism to spread and allow the Korean people the right to self determination and would repeat this same cycle of military violence against any people who reject American imperialism (Vietnam).
Its also illegal to speak positively of the north in SK media so honestly bro I'm just asking you to question the things you think you believe because there's always another side to the story.
@@Poadiup SK is not a vassal state anymore it was for some time simillar to how Japan was but currently it is economically self sufficient and has one of the strongest economies. NK on the other hand gets the majority of its electricity supply from China and relies on russian grain supply.
NK's regime has little to nothing in common with communism or with peoples right to self determination. It is a hereditary dictatirship with a centralized economy.
My parents used to live in the USSR, probably the most "successful" of all Communist\socialist states of the time. Even there the life wasn't particullary good or free. You get what the government decides to give you because it thinks it's what you need due to the centralized planning nature of the economy.
There's a tendency in communist\socialist-led states that all of the quality of life improvements are always related to the free market - oriented reforms and reintroduction of some forms of private ovnership of means of production as well as indtoduction of foreign capital. It happened with China during Deng Xiaoping, with Vietnam, Laos and Cuba and to the lesser extent with the USSR. The same thing is happening in NK because its original Juche based isolationist centralized economy starved a lot of people to death during the 90s and was only able to survive due to the extensive outside help.
Even if its Its really illegal to speak positively of the north in SK media it is also impossible to say anything outside of what the party wants to say in NK media because there's no independent media at all. It's also illegal to smuggle anything from the south and the punishment is more severe compared to SK. It was like this in the USSR and currently is in NK.

They would be arrested and never seen again the moment they stepped in the country. I wouldn’t even visit China if I were them.
Yeah, sure it could be an interesting experience, but after seeing people take trips there, I'd say it's simultaneously the most boring, and most batshit insane and terrifying trip to take. It's a preplanned "trip" in a preplanned area where you get to see preplanned activities. And if you even accidentally talk something bad of the country, the leader, party, national flag, portraits of their leaders, propaganda posters you'll go to prison or forced labour. A theatre is a cheaper and safer alternative for seeing acting.
@@Liukupukki how is that different than a lot of trips? All planned out. First we do this then we do this. All while people are showing u the tourist experience. Maybe them trying to show western people a western experience is their way of being hospitable while at the same time trying to encourage their own culture. Just like in America u would see the best of our country as a tourist here they want to show you the same.
@@dougfoster445 the difference is that you have the option to visit anywhere that is not a tourist trap.
@@dougfoster445 And you calling North Korea hospitable is just ridiculous.

Coming back to this six years later, it makes you think how often this happened before the age of information we find ourselves in now. Like, how many times have the people of many nations been lied to about one or a few other nations in an effort to create an image en masse?
The language manipulation still happens all the time.
And even when it's happening IRL & streamed live as it's happening, there's still SO MUCH propaganda that people still don't believe, or immediately get defensive when they hear the UN-verified, million-people-backed stance that Isr*el is committing gen*cide in Palest*ne.
I mean, the napoleon being short is quite well known, when it was a difference of measuring systems. There are ton of propaganda films in white and black that you can search, you won't get a quantitative number but you can start assuming always.

Well that is really not much of a reply considering the vast content that should of been of interest. You should not be offended by my comments, in fact I am very proud of North Korea and those people who have struggled for decades and remained strong in the face of tyranny.
There is nothing wrong with being a North Korean living in Germany, the only problem is when you say your German. It gets more complicated when their is a parent of either side, in which case that is why it is a situation best avoided and I say that with an absolute appreciation for the beauty and nature of Asian girls. I could easily fall in love with one,

That is a good reply from Phuong. you modern NatSocs are a lost case.
The only cure for NatSoc is a bullet.
Never Again.
North Korea is a strong Nationalist country, opposed to the IMF, opposed to Israel. I do not like or use the horrible terminology of Left-Right, because that creates 2 opposing sides, when the idea is to bring everyone together.
Considering that virtually all of the Western countries are "Left" or I prefer to say "Liberal", how can you state the DPRK is leftist when they are in fact almost totally opposite in policy.
National Socialist Germany had peoples from all over the world welcome in Germany, they were never racist towards Black races or any other race for that matter. The issue of the Jew's is related to what the Jew's did to Germany and has nothing to do with their racial resemblance or the religion they followed.
The Allied countries are the one's guilty of racism towards Black coloured races, most of the European countries and Germany do not have this history. The U.S.A and some of the regions of the Commonwealth this has occurred.
There are Black coloured people who wore the Swastika proudly in WWII and others who wear it today. The Liberals just have no idea.
