Nothing unites quite like a common enemy. Since the 1950s, the United States and North Korea have had a relationship that can generously be described as difficult. Both nations fought one another during the Korean war, and even to this day are warily eyeing one another across the Demilitarized zone on the Korean peninsula. In spite of this rocky past, on one occasion, both nations managed to set aside their differences for a common goal.

funny how this one incident also immediately disproves your constant claims that north korea is this isolationist dictatorship that doesnt allow anyone to leave, they got fucking sea trade and workers outside the country.
USA and North Korea working together is like the classic Tom and Jerry moment where they teamed up together to fight a bigger foe, and then, they went back to continue the fight again.
Yes, you're right. Allies today, enemies tomorrow.
it's like the Galactic Empire and the New Republic teaming up against the Ssi Ruuk

When you hear north korea and united states. The words I would not hear would be "working together."
they could have made peace on that day but no. they had to screw the pooch. and ruin the peace.
No cause we’re best friends with North Korea it’s just that both governments are acting and pretending to hate each other
@@thesailormercury2 realistically, you can't solve the north korean-us relations for the past 60ish years with one incident
I don't know maybe this is over the top I think he's maybe over exaggerating this so-called High Praise from North Korea.
because most of the time they treat themselves like like they're gods of some kind and they always want to take credit for anything good and hide the fact that the US help North Korea.
Which this knowledge of the US helping North Korea
which would potentially break the delusion of north Korea veiws the evil War Machine of the United States
They don't want to break that delusion maybe this High Praise was towards the United States show no hostility but to be very honest I don't think they really dont care of the United States will help or not what matters to North Korean that. They want to keep that hateful view of the United States.

Basically when the final boss/villain appears in the final arc and both the protagonist and antagonist have to work together to defeat the common threat.
comparing pirates as final boss is kinda stretch heh
We had a real life situation where Kim & Trump work together.

My Father, Master Chief Ludlam, was actually one of the Americans who boarded that ship when he was on the James E. Williams when the Dai Hong took place. The only things he has ever mentioned is the smell and the bodies on the boat which he had to crawl through. Truly tragic scenario for anyone, thank you Simple History for FINALLY shedding light on this
very intresting
Bodies? So many died?
@@BluePawPRME i said bodies, never said "so many died" lol
@@GroundhogKim what did you dad mean by it tho? just smelly pirates? what bodies did he have to crawl through? (dead or alive?)
@@Number1Irishlad he never really specified and I never was willing to ask as I never wanted to trigger anything.
What I laid out in my initial comment is all I know from him, my mother(ex navy), and a few of my father and mother fellow shipmates.
My dad dealt with a lot more of the serious things such as Somali Pirates, Kosovo and whatnot. Some of which is very graphic hense I dont ask very often...
“You know I don’t think we ever got over that language barrier…” a US Soldier to a North Korean soldier….probably

@ 0:36 a true operator here, he's got three hands making him the best at QCB scenarios
A perfect example of “the enemy of my enemy is my friend”
My most sincere congratulations Simple History, well done. Once again you outdid yourself and this is one of the best videos i've ever seen. I really liked the fact that for once the US and North Korea fought side by side.
Sadly, it was a cooperative and wholesome story like this that was never widespreaded enough.
You guys taught me more than most of my history teachers ever did in school. Keep up the good work
It's funny because it is true. All of this less than an hour, unlike learning everything in just a few days.
love the video but something caught me off guard in a funny way @ 9:36 the animator I think forgot to remove the hand from the weapons forward guard. just made me chuckle was all over all love the video
Did you see the three handed marine 34 seconds into the video? It's so funny!😂😂🤣🤣
I spent 14 years in the Marine Corps and we work hand in hand with the Navy and this is the first I've heard of this. Thanks for bringing this to light.

Well, it's the Little things that matter. While there was some Hope and Didn't really Last that Long. It is Still the Little Things That Truly Matter.
When Good and Evil join forces to overthrow a greater evil.
Like that star wars book where the rebellion joined forces with the empire.
The very brief alliance between the US & N.K. was about as brief as the alliance between Master chief & Arbiter with the flood.
Wow, never heard of this! Interesting.
Like when Superman and Lex Luthor team up to fight Darkseid
According to TV Tropes this would be an example of "Enemy Mine."
So true.
Well that 10 year training sure paid off then, for once nk was pretty good
Some of the detail in the draws is impressive. I got a kick out of seeing the AFFF pull stations inside the HCO shack.
How has this not already been made into a Hollywood action film?
thank you :)
Those North Korean seafarers would have ended up in a gulag had they not fought back against the pirates.
If I tried to get along with my enemies even though I set aside the differences, there will be problems no matter what. I’d rather just stay away.
You should do one about Operation Paul Bunyan. The US tried to trim a tree near the North Korean side, and the situation ended with one poor US soldier getting hacked or bludgeoned to death by North Korean troops.
When the USA and North Korea worked together against a greater threat it was a classic Danta and Virgil moment.

Moral of the story: even if you hate another country because political thing ,the trade and business must keep going so the green can still flowing.
Absolutely, because the benjigreens are the only thing that really matters.
it's great to know that north korea's relations are improving, like how they had a famine then the US and south korea donated food

Thanks Marcus!

This is one of those moments in history where it's a "Professionals have standards" situation where some unorganized group picks on established nations with organized militaries and everyone sets their differences aside to get rid of the nuisance before resuming usual hostilities
long time enemies worked together results in a good result
I need a movie of this
Having mandatory military/ army training is smart then. In the unprecedented case that you might get attacked by someone or something any sort of training could help you
Good video topic bro
00:35 bro has 1 extra arm to shake hands
5:40 someone is out there touching boats 😡 😡 😡 we’re on the way
btw that axe fight you saw in the beginning was a real event called The Panmunjom Axe incident in 1976 than happened in the Joint Security Area where the South and North Korea meet
I don't agree on many things Korea dose but mandatory 4 years in military is kinda good in my opinion
America and North Korea: "open the window luthor..."
The pirates: "Ah..."
Little did the pirates know, the North Korean's had military experience
O:31 Animation goof, the soldier on the right has three hands
Small animation mistake at 0:27 -- The US soldier's left hand is still on his gun while he's using it to shake his NK counterpart's.
DPRK expressed gratitude at the time of the incident. That’s a big step for them.
do a video on the time the us green berets worked with a russian spetsnaz unit
Thinking Kim will pay for the release of the his hostages, is probably dumbest thing ever.
2:10 This marine got three hands now.

It really is disappointing that nothing really changed as far as relations are concerned, after this concluded. I have hope that perhaps someday things will change, but who can say when that might be.
