For almost a century, North Korea has been ruled by three men from the Kim family, who have created a government unlike any in the world. It claims to be a one-party socialist regime but it actually functions like a hereditary monarchy. The throne has passed from father to son twice, but today, there is some speculation that it could pass next from father to daughter or even brother to sister. This video explains how the Kim dynasty passes on succession and why some experts believe two women could be in contention for succession.

Brilliant work. Thank you so much!
@Search-Party Next video on rise of right wings extremist's propoganda. Please 🙏
'She may be young, she may be photogenic, but she is who she is. Watch out'.
"I can fix her"
'She dont wanna be saved'
@@Tahm_😂 do u wanna die, she's the type to say if I can't have him no one can, and proceeds to decapitate u
Basically a warning for "simp"
Dude i can though.@@Tahm_
Her smile is chilling. I’ve heard she is ruthless. I think about the people way more than I probably should. I hope those people can be liberated some day.
Imagine if North Korea got a female leader before USA
I mean Pakistan has had two…
Wouldn’t even care tbh
Would be something
I think that’s highly likely haha
@@gavinathlingand look how great they are doing😂women are not meant to be leaders, it's shown all through history
12:30 " This is Kim Joo-ae...she really could be the next heir."
It's important to note that nobody outside of the Kim family and circle know the daughter's actual name. It's probably not Jooae. Everyone just thinks it is because that's what Dennis Rodman said, who is the only outsider to have met that daughter (as a baby). Koreans use titles rather than names during introductions of others. More than likely, the daughter was introduced as "juh-ae," which means that girl or my girl. Kim would not have introduced his daughter by her name. This is something foreigners don't quite understand sometimes. Rodman is not a Korean speaker so wouldn't know the difference between Joo-ae or juh-ae.
Dennis Rodman knows everything.
@@spadaacca He probably knows more than he realises.
As a korean, this video was on point on every aspect. I always wondered how deep I should trust the infos of the channel because, as a foreigner, I have little to no background knowledge of the provided info hence I do not have the sensitivity to raise a red flag when misinformation is given. But now I know that I can have trust in your journalism. Good Job
Yeah lots of American journalism is absolutely terrible
This is prove that credibility is something that must be earned and kept. Great job, Sam!
North or south ;)
@@ammarahsan2157 ☠
I disagree that this video was on point on every aspect.
1. Korea's division did not start at the Korean War. It actually started at the end of Word War II when Russia and the US decided to divide Korea in half. That's a fact that the western world likes to omit or ignore.
2. 12:30 " This is Kim Joo-ae...she really could be the next heir."

Fantastic video as always. Such a joy to see this channel grow. Support independent journalism!
thank you so much :)

You can just call it "journalism", establishment media does not do journalism anymore. They're activists bankrolled by billionaires.
Please upload twice a month 🙏🏾
soon!
Quality is better than Quantity
I’ll rather have quality made videos once or every other month than 2 a month that are medium
@@Search-Partyyour channel will skyrocket as soon as u do
@@Search-Party Also my car needs an oil change, could you get on that please? Lazy lazy reporters.
Nothing like a democracy with an absolute Monarchy
DPRK= Democratic People's Republic of Korea. But its not democratic, it isn't run by or for the people and it isn't a republic.
All American presidents are related
Yeah, and South Korea is “totally” a “democracy.”
The history of Korea is far more complex than this video, depicts it as (which no hate to the creator I can’t blame them for falling pray to the lies of mainstream media). - The original reasoning behind the split between the north and south can be attributed to imperialist Japan’s occupation on the country (if you want to know how “friendly” the Japanese were to the Koreans, I suggest you look into what “comfort woman” were). Basically, North Korea was established as a revolutionary workers state, fighting against the unjust rule of the Japanese.
At the end of World War II, the axis powers were, mostly, defeated. Soon later, the Cold War begins. The US sides with the Southern puppet state, (which btw still appointed many of the Japanese war criminals). While the USSR sided with the revolutionary north.
Who attacked who first is a trivial annotation often brought up, as in reality, both sides were constantly antagonizing each other. Moreover originally the north was more prosperous than the south, however, with the Korean war and over 20% of the entire population in the north killed, (plus most of their infrastructure being demolished), modern day North Korea-is an absolute s**t hole.
In short, yes, North Korea sucks but this is not an excuse for the hyperbole you see constantly pushed by mainstream media.
Dude, european countries are literally all monarchies, except France.
@@user-ez8le1rp3xyes but European monarchies are constitutional, having limits on their sovereigns power, north korea is a medieval state were the whims of one family dictate the whole country
WELCOME BACK, SAM! Happy to see a new upload.
Man I find you on every channel I follow. Our choices do match a lot
@@junaidali1235 That’s the algorithm, not me lol
@@PokhrajRoy. That's true but you do mark your presence as a viewer with lots of comments :)
@@junaidali1235 Ok you got me there haha
Jeez, these are some sober conversations 👏 👏
I was wondering where did i hear your lovely voice, whenever Vox videos were narrated by you i always loved it, amazing video and best of luck on the independent channel 💪🏾
Quality content - really happy to see this channel growing. I also noticed production quality getting better with every video!
you guys have been killing it! can’t believe it’s been 9 videos already. SP has easily become my 2nd favourite channel (only after kurzgesagt 😶)
Check Johnny Harris
Thank you for the amazing content and Welcome Back!!
I think you missed one point : Trust. Build during time when both of them were together for studying in EU.
He knows about all the pretty blonde swiss boys she's snuck off with and she knows about all ze chocolate he ate. "Don't make me run! I'm full of chocolate!"
Trust psychos?
Where in the EU did they study?
@@josepha133 Switzerland allegedly
@@cuonghoang2243 Its not alleged there's pictures jfc
I think your best video yet. Loved it!
This was awesome. Great work!
Love the topic and really loved the way you simplified the whole situation which made it very easy to understand
Great Videos! Keep up the great work!
It’s crazy to think that no citizen inside North Korea will see this video, and to think about what their reaction would be if they did 😅
Flourishing democracy is a very generous description of the political situation in the south.
Compared/Relative to NK?
Saudi Arabia is a flourishing democracy compared to DPRK
@@jessiporch7715nice
Which is worse , NK , Eritrea or Tajikistan?
@@deadlytsg2792 or russia?
I LOVE your channel but consistency is key. Please upload more!
we're workin on it!
good to see you improve, you should reach the level of Johnny Harris!@@Search-Party
@@bloop_officialquality over quantity
You are addicted
Not me reading "North Korea says it Tested a Nuclear-Capable Underwear Drone in Response to Rivals' Naval Drills" 😂😂😂
I don’t know how much it helps to put ads in the middle of the episode, but damn does it kill the flow for me. That said I’m the person that watches ads even if they’re at the end. Either way I’ll still keep watching. Awesome stuff
You are concise yet precise.
I get the points in each video
Whether it is sports or politics.
Another great video. Thank you
fun fact: while the north is being ruled by the mount paektu dynasty, the south, while rarely mentioned by the media, is being ruled by a group of chaebol (or conglomerate), who contribute almost 60 percent of the GDP in 2021 (according to statista). so both nation have their similarities in their political system.
are you a North korean shill? how much do they pay you?
@@tryingmybest206nope, im not endorsing north korea and they dont endorse me either. I already mentioned my source (statista) so you can look at it yourself, but If you still dont believe what i say about how similar these two nations are, just use search engine or youtube. You will find many articles and videos discussing about how chaebols is the foundation of south korea today
Do south koreans rulera pulverise their political enemies from a cannon?
@@tryingmybest206 The OP had me for the first half. I know all about the Chaebol, and I agree that they have waaay too much power. That said, comparing them to the Kims is utterly insane - there's a *huge* difference.
The chaebol turned South Korea, which was once poor, into a rich country, while the peaktu turned North Korea, which was once rich, into one of the poorest places on earth. Not to mention the other differences.
This is such a great video on what I think most people would never even think of. Thank you for making it!
thank you for watching it!
High quality reporting alongside high quality infographics
Instant subscribe
welcome!
Can’t wait to see this channel’s growth in a few years. Just hope the quality stays the same
Your voice sounds familiar,,, great video keep it up
You're great, recently I have discovered you and another channel called Fern and I feel like when I was watching channels like Vox and Vice a couple of years ago, both of which had incredible success. I hope you will keep going and if you do, I'm sure you'll get there
the DW documentary on her is worth a watch. to me, she’s definitely scarier than her brother… cold and ruthless, and likely to be underestimated.
plz uploaded more🙏
Another great video from channel👏🏻🤞🏻 keep doing.
Btw I would like to know how long does take to make these great map and family tree?
mmm roughly 3 days of animation work
Please upload more. 🥺
Great video, instant sub, well done!
tell ur friends
This is a different kind of k-drama going on 😅
Amusingly enough, K-drama is quite popular on the North Korean black market.
Very interesting Video. Nice work.
Whether it be Atlas or Search Party - you have been and continue to be the very best Sam. Really appreciate your work mate
that's super kind of you to say -- thank you for watching :)
- sam
great work!
Great topic. Great research. Thanks ❤
great work from the search party team 🎶
Thought I recognized this voice from somewhere. Great videos and keep up the great work!
the atlas videos were always my favorite, hyped to discover this channel and wishing you alot of support and goodluck
Great as always
good work, keep it up!
This was a really cool one, thanks!
Great video
Good afternoon, Suarch-Party team. Will you be streaming on Nebula at any time in the near future? Thank you.
"flourishing" is an intresting term for a country litterly going through a birth rate crisis.
Idk if the misspelling of litterly was intended, but it works out if not.
Sadly, that would be accurate for almost every economically wealthy country in the world right now.
@@kohltonclark22 yea but they are literally the lowest in the world.
You knew the video was propaganda from the jump with that "south Korean democracy" line
Big fallacy. That can be said about 60% of the world.
Heard she’s more ruthless than Hilary 😂.. the grass isn’t always greener on the other side 💀
fascinating!
5:24 is where the ad ends
to be fair, when it comes to the triangle of peace, war, and diplomacy, we kind of do the same things.
Finally, another video!!!
Underwater nuclear attack drone??? thats some xXx Zander Cage shi* lmao XD
This has been insightful
Love the channel I would just love more content
Yeahh this is a cool one. Keep it up 👍🏻
Loved this
New search party lets go
Using Sung-yoon Lee for the intro bridge and ending of the video is so good. From his delivery to his statements, I love it.
Interesting video
I thought the daughter was in line for succession? You never see the daughter and the aunt at the same time which is weird. If the sister is his right hand, why is she never there when the daughter is with him? I wonder if the daughter is going to have an "accident". I wouldn't put it past her.
Your videos are Top Notch guys !
Wheres the new info
Excellent reporting. NK is full of interesting stories.
very interesting 👏
Love this man. Keep making these kinds of videos
Great video! Very insightful indeed. Would you consider doing one on Myanmar (Burma) and its current situation?
Can you do a video on democracy in Guatemala! Very interesting topic
That last line, "In 4 years or 8 years, you will be gone. But we are still here"
Excellent journalism. I came to find this channel through Johnny Harris' channel. I'm not disappointed. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I love your channel so god dam much
Korea should united divided by foreigners and continue by family…not like India and Pakistan
ty sam
thank you michael
Almost forgot how smooth youtube vanced is at skipping sponsored stuff 👌
Absolutely great videos! Keep it up and upload with a higher frequency, pleaseeee. Love from Brazil!!!!
Working on it!
New Search Party?! Yes please
The US is the one that divided Korea in the first place.
And of course they didn't reply to you. Fishy imo.
Appreciate the effort you guys put into these videos Sam!
Cool video. Better than sports stories
I didn’t know this was the “Vox” voice I loved so much, until I saw watched your collaboration for the Merchant of Death. So glad I found your channel. Gonna be binging all your videos 😂
tell ur friends
@@Search-Partydefinitely will be
This channel spits that heat.
Can’t believe South Koreans got fooled even after dealing with them for half a century
Love your channel. Keep up the good work
I love the video, but 2 minutes of sponsor talk in a 13 minute video is crazy….
I get the feeling his sister is his most trusted confident and possibly a partner. Not like we've haven't seen keeping in the family before. Looking at you Hapsburgs
Thank you for this great episode!
Thank you! Will do!
who is the other sibling and why he(she) can't be the next dictator? i mean, in this report you only mention about Kim's sister but not the other sibling.
Upload more often
Oh God, That smile
How long do you think "sister" can last when all her life she has had to give half of her meals to her "brother?"
12:12 THIS GUY IS ON THE PERC
If you wanna be a criminal be a dictator. Even governments respect you.
US itself is a worst criminal than any other country
Sam is back! 😍😍😍
She's the 2nd most influential Korean woman after Maangchi.
Maangchi-seonsaengnim taught me how to make kimchi, I'd follow her culinary army any day :D
DAMN IT I LAUGHED HARD AT THAT hhahaha. WUIDAEHAN RYEONGDEO-JA Maangchi-nim-dong-ji-keso manse!
the voice sounds familiar
pronunciation of the names is on point
