North Korean Pop Song "Whistle": North vs. South Korean vs. "Japanese" Version 北朝鮮歌謡「口笛」

- Опубліковано 22 сер 2024
- North Korean pop song "Whistle" (휘파람) sung by three singers. The last version is recorded in Japan and its second verse is in Japanese, but the singer (김연자 Kim Yeon-ja) is South Korean.
The lyrics were written by Cho Ki-Chon, a Russian Korean, who was born in Ussuriysk (Russia) in 1913. He had lived in Vladivostok and Khabarovsk, before moving to Omsk to study literature at at a local university. After returning back to Vladivostok in 1937, Cho was exiled to Socialist Kazakhstan along with the entire Soviet Korean population living in the Soviet Far East (Primorskiy, Khabarovsk provinces and the Jewish autonomy) in 1937, came back to Khabarovsk as a military servant in 1942. After the WWII, the Soviet Government recruited well educated Soviet Koreans who held high-rank positions in the USSR to send them to North Korea to build up socialism in North Korea. He became one of the most prominent North Korean poets whose style was heavily influenced by the Soviet literature tradition of 1930-1950s.

For real🗣🔥🗣🔥
North Korean version is the best, has emotion and voice is wonderful.
North Korea still sucks though... Worst country ever...

You cannot always judge by the country's government. So where are the people and the culture? Don't you ever judge that?
I guess your not ok?? I'd rather stick to the original version
@@aquajet9x9On the contrary, one of the best countries.
@@aquajet9x9 best korea
The North Korean version has more feeling and emotion, in my opinion the best
North Korean Version from Gorgeous Jeon Hye Young ( DPRK) just Best № 1 ( No Options and no questions)
i like the South one for a change. After a while I can't listen to the same songs, so I listen to different versions
I must admit the DPRK version is the best, and the ROK version is the worst. This is because the DPRK used the most modern equipment to make the sounds, while the ROK's version is has more traditional instruments. I wanted to know if you noticed that.
PHUONGGGG! My comrade ❣️
The North Korean version is childlike and sweet, the Japanese one is mature and sensual. The South Korean version doesn't really stand out with anything, in my opinion.
Award Ceremony is
North - Japanes - South
no south before Japanese
@@DialecticalMaterialismRocks Nope, Japanese before south. South does not sound as clean as Japanese.
@@Levi-hk7gy I agree.
north Korean version got my Mexican vote 🌟
Same
@@skyeflores1687 X3

X5, suena bien chistosa como canta pero tiene algo especial
I colapso
The north korean version was the first I heard, so it's my favorite one.
Same here, I almost always like the first version of a song. Even if it's the cover. Good to know I'm not the only one who works like that.
North Korean music is almost russian like
Good point and remember Russia during the Soviet era was the one who installed Kim Il-sung Kim Jong-un's Grandfather as the ruler of 🇰🇵 Post 1945
@@EpicThe112 That's not true. You know that elections were held for Kim Il-Sung? He won because he was already popular as a leader against Japanese imperialism
@Astrah Cat China has more influence today, but USSR used to have more influence. The reason why North Korea did well prior to 1990 was due to all help from USSR.
@@Felixxxxxxxxx but China today is more important to the world than USSR back then
@@Sheerspeechcraft Didn't expect you here.
The North Korean version is two things
1. Something that makes you nostalgic for the 90’s no matter how old you are
2. Something you would hear in a communist mineshaft working for the state
The NK one feels like if you are really doing that and they have a feeling to it, in other side of the table, the SK version feels like they are just your average cheerleader song, and also the SK version sounds like if you are in a bar or something.
Taking the third side to the table, the Japanese version feels like if you are in a extravagant concert, and this version is obviously very emotional, since the backtrack is well made to be very emotional.
It's also because every version has it's own goal. This song, which is a love song, has emotions and feelings from the original singer 전혜영 (Jeon-Hye-Yeong) because she wanted to reflect love through the song. The South Korean version had more "I want this to be popular" goal. This is why it sounds completely different, it sounds modern-er for a SOUTH Korean audience. The Japanese version is just concert.
As much as I love SK-pop, this one goes to the NK-pop original. The SK version was over produced with cheesy sax and synth, the JP version took itself way too seriously (it's a light, fun song).
SK version was awful, loved the Japanese version
You open up my mind about the Japanese version. Thanks.
nice analysis
*The Japanese version* is performed by the South Korean trot singer Kim Yeon-ja.
@@zoemulloy8164 YESH
North Version is definitely best one. To common on this version, one word is enough: Pure.
The North Korean version is the best version of the three, the instrumental is innocent and the voice is amazing. The South Korean version is really bland, seems too disco. The "Japanese" version is more dramatic which is cool, but it's nothing compared to the North Korean version.
So here are my rankings:
1: North Korea
2: Japan
3: South Korea
I think North Korea version is the best and sweet-sounding
"Sweet" is the scientifically correct term here sir 💜
i honestly really love the Japanese version.
It's an orchestral, it was well-made
Personally I thought the South Korean version was overdone, with cheesy effects. The Japanese one was pretty good, but I'd say the best here would have to go to the N Korean version.
i really did not like the south Korean version, Japanese was good, North Korea was the best, i love the north Korean style of music.
dito! North Korean version>Japanese Version>South Korea version
Bruh ur living under some rock then
Sad, I loved the South Korean Version, and the North Korean version is not bad, but the Japanese version is not good
@@skylergamingca3168 I liked both Korean versions equally. The North Korea a good song on its own and the Southern cover is an interesting alternative version with more 80s pop. An exact copy of the original would've being pointless. The Japanese version is meh.
@@zunaii11 Rather than degenrate modern genre.
Actually, all three songs were sung by Koreans.
Thats why he wrote "japanese" and not japanese.
Cuz its not really japanese (i think)
North Korea wins my eardrums. Gratz.
The second lyric of the Japanese version.
Please use it for something
口笛を吹いた 昼も夜も
幾千も吹いた 愛の歌を
恋人よ振り向いて 夢の中で
微笑みを交わせば それでいいさ
(I whistled, day and night
I whistled a thousand songs of love
Look at me, lover, in my dreams
I'll be happy if we can smile at each other)
North Korean version wins by a landslide. It's a beautiful melody, the voice is great, and sounds very innocent.
The first one always wins! DPRK made it first, then it became popular in both Korea.
North Korean version is too lovely ❤️
The South Korean and Japanesse version is nice, but without emotion. The North Korean ver. is the best. Amazing voice and natural video
In this vedio North Korean song and music is the best among all.
In my opinion the best version is the North Korean one, but the Japanese one is good too !. :k
Original will always be original ☺ I liked the north korean's version most it sounds so pure, simple and sweet ☺❤
Sorry, but I think this one goes to North Korea. It is a twee song to begin with, but the other versions were abysmal!
North Korean version is the best.
my favorite north korean version
Even tho the culture between the two is very different, including music, I have to say I like the North Korea's version more
The singer who sang the Japanese version is Korean singer Kim Yeon-ja. She is active in Korea and Japan
North korean version is pure korean and asia culture.
The South Korean version sounds way too disco. NK's version was the best, as usual
Japanese version like 90's anime opening
Exactly, magical girl anime opening.
North Korean version is the best.
Yet I like South Korea version a lot too since it reminds me of "City Pop"
Japanese version is the worse since it does not fit the theme of the song and make it sound like a depressing song when the lyrics are not.
The Japanese version has the best production values that's for sure. Sung by KIM Yon-ja, born and lived thru high-school in Gwangju, South Korea but must've gone to Japan sometime in her 20s (she's almost 60 now). She sings Japn. enka quite well, see "Return to Pusan" written by CHO Yon-pil but very popular in Japn. translation.
I adore the 'Japanese' version.
Muy buenas las tres versiones.
i needed it for my music class. Thank you
North korean 10/10
😊
K pop is okay but have you heard DPRK pop?
All versions are well
There's no north and south only Korean Japanese and Real North Korea is best
Hafeez Kongrat they are 2 diff countries
WHAT, only North Korea
Great song! Glad to see many latinos enjoying it as well!
I rank them:
1-Korea
2-Japan
3- invaded Korea
Japanese version is South Korean Singer Kim Yon Ja.
これは北朝鮮版が1番だな
政治体制はともかく北は歌のセンスは抜群
People please read the description.
North Korean: Lyrics are good
South Korean: Music is good
Japanese (not in Japanese though): Vocal is good
North Korean version is far superior
Indeed
yea me too. japanese version is in korean.
Loved the Japanese version!!!!!!! South Korean was a bit choppy
"South Korean version is partly altered. Listen carefully at 2:32 and 6:04. North Korean version is 'Innovator's bouquet', but South Korean version is 'A bouquet for you'." what a weird way to do this.
Probably because of censorship
I know the comments are north Koreans disguise as foreigner. I like the japanese one most. Touching music and hard work. Even that's not in japanese it was zainichi korean those who settle in japan.
🥰North Korea is the best version its sweet
I thought that the South Korean one is Whistle by Blackpink lol
The Japanese version got kim jong un baka mitai
1.North Korean 2.Japanese 3.South Korean
見れば見るほど可愛い
I like Japanese and North Korean version
North Korean is the best😃
I like both of the north and south korean versions (also japanese) but in my opinion the south korean is better :>
Какой замечательный голос , исполнение супер!!!!
South Korean singers name is Kim Yong Im

North korea version was the best 👌🏻💙amazing feeling and voice

鍾翔宇 Xiangyu thats true
鍾翔宇 Xiangyu if it's shit, why does it have more views than your video?
Ziggy smells like jumentous 공원 1 I never said my old stuff wasn't shit, and 2 I'm not a group formed by a huge record company that ensures media appearances
what does it have to do with anything?
I'm sad because south korean version in this video is made in sweatshop studio... there is definitely better version with real orchestration. I don't know how the author find this version lol
Mariana rios que que minhas
Did ABBA steal sample for "Gimme! Gimme!"?
this song from the 1980s
Like the South Korean version more, Japanese version to slow, North Korean version quick and not noticeable.
I kinda like the North Korean version....
why is there a Karen in the North Korean photo?
unpopular opinion the japanese version clean asl
The Japanese version was made to sound like a great concert, it does sound good, but it is very different from the original song, made in DPRK
True Korea does it again !!!
Северная Корея, супер, на первом месте!!!
North korean 'dancing queen'.
My awards:
Japanese - DPRK - South Korea
Same.
Y la versión castellana español??
I love the japanese one
I don't know why, but somehow Japanese version is much better
Where is Japanese version?? All songs are Korean language...... There is not Japanese version. I'm native Korean
+Rayon d'Orient 7:43 Japanese Language
7:43 thats Japanese part
Rayon d'Orient native korean?
Kimu121504 lol its not japanese its korean 😂😂😂
Kimu121504 yeah, but its in korean language not in japanese
the japanese ver pronounce like south korean so the 3rd one was not japanse
i can't believe i'm saying this but....north korea made a good whistle song!
Who sang the South Korean version of this song, it sounds so beautiful?
Rey Pierce Studios 김용임!
Rey Pierce Studios the north korean is better
A burning pile of garbage would’ve been better than the south korean one
say what you like about North Korea but I do enjoy the NK version, the other versions aren't bad but the SK's saxophone segments were quite jarring
NK version was the best imo. the SK sounded... weird? it kinda felt dead inside, for lack of better term. japanese version is good, but it felt too deep for the kind of song it is
Japanese version starts at 7:43
North Korean is the best
Aika kiva musiikki
The last one is not Japanese version. She's Kim Yeonja. Very well known South Korean singer.
she is speaking japanese
That's not Japanese. That language is Korean she sings, not Japanese...
D; srsly @_@
Yep
is it south korean?
South version prefer to dangdut
日本人版を歌っていらっしゃる方は桂銀淑さんですか？
Legit i thought this was "Whistle" by Blackpink, North Korean Version💀
Unpopular Opinion: the Music in the SK version is good
North Korean version is the best
South Korea was meh
Japan was also meh
일본버전을 부른 가수는 한국인 김연자이며 일본버전 노래 절반이상이 한국어로 불렸습니다.
North Korean is the best, it sounds light and naive. South Korean and Japanese made it too heavy.
Blackpink: *knock knock*
DPRK : Hello 😏
I hate to say this but I kinda like the North Korean version 💀
