Indigo Traveller holy shit I thought you were taken to the prison camp. (Lucky you bro )
What were you thinking so what if you are a traveler please be very very careful if you are in a place like that again
Leander Herman he’s not American you twat
"They were shooting me with fake guns, it was pretty fun to interact with the kids". Yea this dude was scared to say anything negative. I would be too.
@-:- HayHay -:- that's exactly what it translates to.
I did it the same he done when i visited this hermitage country..not to mention the compulsory visit to the statues to pay them respect...

They literally called him a bastard and a filthy swine 💀
For real?! You guys ain't screwing with me are you?! Those little kids were really saying that shit?😮

I’d never even consider stepping foot inside. You literally risked your life to show us not even 5% of this hellscape. Props to you.
Most all people on official tours are completely fine as long as you don’t say or do anything stupid. But yes the risk of something catastrophic happening are still many, many times more than any other country.
How can somebody be so fucking ignorant and stupid? Did you at least watch the video? Do you really believe that soldiers are gonna fckn kill you if you say something they don't like? Where is that hellscape you're ranting about?
PEOPLE IN NORTH KOREA ARE HAPPIER AND HEALTHIER THAN IN USA.

No wonder he was whispering whenever he’s in the hotel room!
whatever3210 yea mean I'd be pretty terrified of going but I still would. If I dont feel scared or anything then I'm dead
I knew a guy who was in a band that went there and he says he was in his room and mentioned there not being an iron, and then a few minutes later someone brought an iron to his room.
Michael Adams That's crazy !! It kinda weirds me out that they do that but I guess because North Korea is about respect it makes a bit of sense
at 1:23 that hole in the wall looks suspicious...
Make no mistake - these are not the North Korean People - these are the props for visitors. The countryside is where the people are; starving to survive, working day in and day out to provide resources for the props to perpetuate the facade.
Or maybe they just brainwashed us thinking this?
You do realize they still have somewhat of an economy, right?
@@clockwork6973No. What Krismm2003 said is pretty well known in South Korea. This is coming from a Korean that's been there multiple times.
@@bobachii yeah south korea would never have any reason to comply with American propaganda
@@clockwork6973 Of course our governments will try to make it look as bad as possible, but there are many independent sources confirming this. I mean, "props for visitors" is a bit harsh maybe, but its fairly well known that there is a "rich" side of north-kora that is almost first-world like, and then a much larger poor side of north-korea on which the first world side is build upon. And obviously they are gonna show the rich side to tourists.
Realistically speaking, while there of course also is manipulation going on on our side, we have to remember that we live an a culture that is much larger and that values freedom. When governments try to manipulate us they have to do so indirectly and its much harder and more limited since here everyone can just publicly disagree and they couldn't do much. In North-Kora however they can directly manipulate the masses and physically stop people who go against their agenda. Also they are a far smaller and more isolated community which makes manipulation far easier. Its is always important to note that there is more manipulation happening in our culture than many might be aware of, but its still not comparable to a dictatorship like North Korea. And also, there are more and more people here that arguably OVERestimate how much manipulation is happening here. because as I said, manipulating a culture like ours is far more messy and difficult, by no means impossible, but very much limited.
I am getting so many chills just by watching this, its horrifying of what these people go through.
it is, But you have to remember these people have lived it like this probably all of their lives, so its all they know really.
@@Sycethtrue
What they go through... according to who? USA tells you the truth about a counrty that was able to resist its terrible "democracy". Might be time to wake up
7:38 "Kill the Western Devil! Die!"
This dude:They were so adorable!
CursedDealer I thought I was the only one who noticed that 😂
Is that what they truly said or you just fucking? Lol
@@yosammy1746 I'm wondering the same
I thought to myself "Imagine if they had guns."
@subu tai fuckkkkkk
Am I the only one that feels like the whole place is staged for tourists?
A little way too clean
same!! I feel like all those places and people he showed are staged. it just doesn’t seem natural to me at all
They do direct tourists to the “nicer” part of it as propaganda to show how “nice” it really is.
tourist arent even really allowed here lol
cause it's really design for tourists, place outside Pyongyang is really experiencing from extreme poverty and oppression from the government
It is staged but in north Korea it jas to be clean by law if your spotted trowing things in the ground u could be taken to jail
It almost feels dystopian, I get liminal space feelings from this, it’s uncomfortable but beautiful
there is nothing beautiful about oppression
it's literally dystopian brotha
The children reminded me of when I visited South Korea. My knowledge of the Korean language is very very limited, so when I visited Seoul, I had hoped that some people would know a little bit of English, but this wasn't the case. Almost no adults spoke English in Seoul. I guess Seoul isn't really the tourist destination that Busan or other places are, but I didn't know any better and I'm a city person. Anyway, during my visit I went to the national war museum and there were school groups visiting that day. I remember a school group coming up to me and saying Hello, I'm from Korea. And when I replied back in Korean to say I'm from the UK their faces lit up and they were so happy. They were the only people to speak English to me the entire time I was in Seoul, I really appreciated it and it helped me feel less lonely.
I’d be scared to blink in North Korea tbh

The trains in the metro are discarded subway trains from the 70s/80s from East Berlin. And were sold to North Korea between 1993 and 1997. Type GI (Gisela).
stumbled upon this video, and im happy i did. i can't believe north korea still looks the same as it looked in photos even years ago. my mind can't fully grasp life there.
Just imagine laying down on the grass and all of a sudden these children surround you with fake guns, pretending to shoot you.
Honestly that sounds pretty normal for children

I only saw 1 person smile in the whole video. Very telling of what it's like there. Even you weren't as cheerful as usual, and it showed.
When the power cut out for 10mins at the bowling alley all I could think of was someone being taken away and that was their way of not compromising their image..
The more positive he talked, the more unsettling and eerie the video felt. I don’t know why I was so concerned about the Bermuda Triangle as a little kid, when North Fucking Korea is the way that it is.
Agreed
Yeah, I feel like he was purposely saying this stuff so we see the real message, the opposite
No. You're just brainwashed... Can you watch a video without western bias?
@@daleksauce2544 It's not "western bias". That's always the BS excuse. You can find information/videos of people who've escaped. You can find clips of people being shot at for trying to escape over the border. The North Korean leader is a dictator. The people have no freedom to do anything and with extreme punishments, if caught.
@@daleksauce2544 found the brainwashes nk supporter
He is so careful to not say anything negative or critical. Must have been scary knowing how much trouble you can get into for a perceived wrong. Fuck that man, you're brave. I'd never go.
Yeah but it would be easy to just take videos and photos then do a voice over once he's back home in his country
@@JesusisLord254 Jesus ain’t a god

I can imagine this guy going to Berlin in 1937 and leasurely talking about how well the Nazis kept the streets clean, how delicious the food was and how wonderful it was that the trains ran on time. Meanwhile, the concentration/death camps were working overtime, while he's having a self described."great time"
At 1937 the holocaust hadn't started yet. I get your point but please learn some history first.
@@mattnortham300 The comment stated "death camps", and the mass systematic extermination is what defines the holocaust, which started in the middle of ww2, so not 1937. That's about it. No need to discuss this over nothing. If he had said "during ww2" instead he'd be right.
@@mattnortham300 Yeah, again, it said "full working death camps", and that started in 1941 and ended in the 45. So no, not in the 37. Now stfu.
This is really amazing. It is a part of the world that you never ever see but rather just hear about. Thank you for making this video. 🙏
Now make a video talking about your actual experience free of bugs and hidden cameras.

This is his experience. The government li.its westerners from travelling around the country freely.
@@gordonblo6338 uhhhh
It’s important to remember all his content was reviewed by the government to ensure it was ALL positive.
Edit: the voiceover is under his control, however the footage was likely all reviewed and wouldn’t show anything bad.

All of those people looked like they were secretly screaming for help
Some of them are like that but some of them too are giving up and they think this is their whole life supposed to be
But I hope someone help those all people out from that country Even the soldier/guards out there
Honestly to me some of them just looked almost empty or emotionless
Esp. that police woman
Only the Elite is allowed to live in Pyongyang. Those people have a relatively good live
Imagine going to North Korea and then they banned international travel.
o god
That’s a terrifying thought.
Oh noooo
Looks like we're starting a revolution.
ian the conqueror please elaborate
Perhaps he should have done a video AFTER he returned home so he could have commented freely on how he REALLY felt!
Probably too scared to even do that
yeah i dont think he wants to risk his life for a couple views
@@laralara6607wouldn’t it be okay for him to say how he really felt once he is fully away from the country though? I mean are people from NK going to come after people who criticize who are far away from the country? Seems a little far fetched to me. But if they do that I’m just glad they don’t bother coming where I am cause everyone here definitely does not have great stuff to say about it that’s for certain.
@@tararosabelle7368 technically yes but when you hear how NK comes after the defectors you’d feel scared too so I guess it’s a safety measure you know
@@tararosabelle7368Kim Jong Un is well known to have orchestrated many assassinations, he has even had members of his own family killed and famously had one of his own brothers murdered in an airport far away from North Korea, so yes he can get people outside of North Korea.

That happens in sweden too.
Some cultures dont place value in smiling and eye contact. It doesnt mean they are sad or they hate you...
8:25 My initial reaction when I saw these trains was: wait a second, these look like recolored trains we have in Berlin today. Super interesting that their trains were made in Germany. I think the ones in Berlin were also used in the DDR in sowjet times - so thats probably when they were made for North Korea. Very interesting. Crazy that they shipped them all the way.
Wow this was fascinating, thanks for sharing and 🙋🏽♀️ hello from Brooklyn 🇺🇸
The second he said “they shot me with fake guns it was super cool to interact with the kids” is when you can tell it’s gets really uncomfortable to not say anything bad

@@l0g4nn are you serious? This is the comment I was looking for. Holy cow.

😂 omg
Yeah and United Nations funds the system. Without United Nations Iran and North Korea would be the richest countries in the world. Actually they have less poor people than most countries even know, the sanctions don't work. I mean they do but people don't give a fuck and they continue their life.

Imagine people from the countryside seeing this video. Seeing how their leader is feeding tourists delicious foods while they have to live with grass and insects.

since he isn’t held hostage anymore, tell us what it was actually like.
Ikr☠️☠️☠️☠️
Exactly
Wait what?
Nah it was probably exactly as he said it was the thing is that they made sure that he doesn't see how NK actually is because that's only a part of the capital so probably the other cities and towns are pretty fucked up
He is probably still being watched
Everything is clean because when tourists aren’t there no one else is there. It’s like the Truman show.
I forgot I watched this 10 months ago. I just watched the part where he mentioned how clean the metro system was; went to comment pretty much the exact same thing I commented 10 months ago. Had a good chuckle when I saw my old post.
I honestly think that the place for the tourist are filled with like spies to watch the tourist, like the truman show... kinda like to show the tourist that north korea is okay
Yeah also they would be killed if they graffiti or littered
Or is it just Pyongyang?
@@thearacadz That would be pointless because tourists have to be approved in the first place, do they not?
Pyongyang is actually like what you are seeing all the time, as its their holy land of their supreme leader, now when you leave the city is when you see how the majority of the citizens live. Every person you see in this video in Pyongyang is considered upper class in their country.

@@whatshisname2497 Working !
I'm not joking, in communist/ dictatorial countries, everybody works. Skipping/ evading to have a job gets you a nasty beating and plenty of jail time. I know this because this is how my country was (Romania, communist regime from 1946-1989).
maybe people are working or they are in schools and not taking drugs on every corner like they do in western countries?
It's important to remember that, Pyongyang is a city almost exclusively for the rich and elite of the country. I heard rumors that most people are selected. This makes sense for how relaxed it seems. The people are trained to be 'perfect' and to fully follow the rules. I can guarantee if you went to a town in the country, you will be escorted with every step you take.
You read that on Western media. You think a whole city of people were 'selected'? What major city isn't more rich than the rural people? You think if you went to rural North Korea you would find places more akin to the streets filled with dead people stacked on top of each other as is depicted by western media?
@@julieherz8909 It actually makes sense to select the people you want to live in the city when you are a supreme dictator. They're likely smarter, which means they're more of an asset, which means they can benefit the government. Government offers you better housing conditions, food, quality of life, etc. in exchange for unquestionable obedience and doing whatever work they need done. Once they are selected to live there, they immediately have too much to lose if they screw up so they do exactly as they're told.
You honestly think everything that happens in North Korea are western media lies? Why the hell would you defend North Korea?

I'm not trying to justify North Korea at all. I'm just saying that after a full day of work you're just gonna want to go home and you'll probably look the same as those people on your way back home. Plus a decent number of them had their heads down cause they were looking at their phones.
They're tired
Juicy Potatos I’m in New York, and I was going to say the same thing.
Bruh go to a new york city subway and tell me everyone doesnt look more unhappy there. Its literally the same, their going to work lol.
Things that didn’t surprise me at all: lack of life in peoples eyes, not a single smile from a kid that looks genuine, overly beautiful buildings, the looks from the Koreans at you. As if they’ve never seen a white person.
They haven’t
Oh yeah, there was one set of smiles that looked VERY genuine, when the kids were 'killing' him. What a disgusting place.
The building arent THAT beautiful. Not like Dubai or NYC beautiful modern architecture. The look so outdated and dystopian.
@@doeeyes2 NYC doesn't exactly help your case considering how crappy it is in other respects.
A lot of them haven't. The country is an isolated one.
There was very little..if any... footage of you communicating with the locals. The distancing between you and them, was as if you were a ghost. It really reminded me on Hong Kong.
It'd be interesting to see some rural - and poorer - parts of North Korea. But I guess tourists are only allowed in the tourist friendly areas.
The ‘friendly’ areas look like hell how would the poorer ones look 💀💀💀
@@jadhatem4563 like fallout 3
@@jadhatem4563 it would be extra-hell
@@ruslanyakushev4107 do you know his name? Or could you provide a link pls?
There are pics and blogs of the rural parts. Just look them up
I got scared of the kids saying western devil tbh
Ikrr💀
Buy a gun. They can’t.
@@Lori1976 huh
Wish he knew and like smiled and nodded to them. Lmao imagine he put his fingers up as horns. But before any of the adults saw lmao.
Spook them little shit talkers
Looks like a fun place.
Kids shoot play guns at him:
Indigo: it’s cool to interact with the kids
abbas mumawar they are brainwashed :( don’t judge them
Saucyy TV
I think he knows what they are doing but is scared to say it
They were saying he was a “western scum”
If those kids had real guns, they will pull the trigger without a blink
That's why NK would win any war with the South. The North are eating grass and tree bark lol, you can't beat those people.
Yup exactly
@@ChairmanMeow1 They've been beaten before.
The uk could beat them though 🇬🇧
@@TheCrimsonChin91 Not by the south. The south got stomped before NATO actually got involved.
Their body language spoke volumes. Eyes down and few smiles. To quote Christopher Walken's character in True Romance, "What we got here is
a little game of show and tell. You don't wanna show me nothin'. But you're tellin' me everything.
I only see this video today and it reminded me of the movie Equilibrium. Everything is uniformed in this place, people look so emotionless and eerie everywhere you look. Thanks for this glimpse into the most isolated country
Blink twice for help!!!!!👀👀👀
With one eye, that's flirting XD
OH MY GOD
MelaninMe Asmr LMFAO HE LIKED IT IM DONE
*Seizure
Wait he liked it... does that mean he needs help
7:39. They're saying, "Die, White Western devil! Die!" Yeah, they're adorable.
do they really say that? that's hilarious
sirroxalot dam it crazy most countrys call white people devil's that must be some truth in that lol.
but they sure to like to get shit from the devil but that temptations for you.
awww so cuuuuute
WOMBO COMBO
U little devil! 😈
Thanks!!
It’s so clean😮
The themed park was totally empty. Shows that things are probably just for the show.
Zerg Fx I’ve heard there reserved for the crazy fat kid only
Zerg Fx they literally have and entire village of nice homes built close to the South Korean border that is empty just to show the “beautiful quality of life” it’s even called the happiness village.
@@jaimefox7762 Quite hollow happiness that is.
@Jaspar Brook because almost everything they do in their country is unethical and inhumane in the eyes of the rest of the world
you can just see the sadness on everyone’s faces. that place gives such an off atmosphere.
@Dima Q 💀
I'm not a NK supporter, but that's how I feel when I look at Americans in clips or YT vids compared to Europeans, or Indians, or Chinese.
they have this wierd jobber look on thier faces, a kind of poverty. Much happier than the NKs in this vid, but a different kind of sadness on their faces.
For comparison, look at people in the middle East, like Qatar, bharain, maybe Saudi, they are the loveliest and liveliest people I've ever seen, if one of you ever go there, just look at thier faces and honestly tell me what you think compared to Americans.
@Dima Q lol
@@godfather7339 life beats you down in America. We've got it tough over here, the rampant heart disease, and the entire population of Illinois living within our borders. It's almost as bad as Canada.
@@godfather7339 it's because we think having 400 flavors of ice cream is freedom. But dont say anything that goes against tHe sCiEnCe.
I'm south Korean. Thank you for making this video
I am from Colombia and in our country, we say. You have 2 big eggs to go there. It means that you are very courageous.
I have no idea why this video popped up in the catalog, but since I was curious about
North Korea I clicked on it. I'm a South Korean who is currently living in the USA, so I could understand what the kids were saying in the part when you were lying down (7:38). They were saying
"Die American freak!", "You Americans.." It gave me goosebumps the moment they started to talk.
Those poor children... Just getting traumatized to hate the world...
WHAT????
This video was just recommended to me
I thought they were saying nice things to him
i dont understand korean but i knew what they meant
Holy crap... Is he even american anyway??
