North Korean children

[weredo911]

What will happen if HIV/AIDS spreads to North Korea? I mean, I'm not against them or anything, but I'm just wondering.....

[TheTomatoHater]

@weredo911 I think they never heard about condoms.

[jal123me]

-_-' why 

[KnNamwa]

from dancing style ...i guess >> this is an inspiration from Kim the great .... right ?

[alana1811]

Why are they wearing leiderhosen?

[EdNatalie]

wow so much fun allowed there?

[ZombieSkittles65]

...it's really creepy how almost robotic it is, and when they smile it seems forced. obviously propaganda, not that i needed to see this to know north korea is screwed up

[joexiongs]

They are as mighty and as creative as Ther dance.

[hayperonotetoca]

jsnovais1000,,,your mother fuc4er!!! you assh4le,,,,,,,I am sure you live in a confortable house,,have a nice car,,have good food,,you cant imagine how life can be under a comunism regime,,,,,,,SUCH A STUPID!!!!

[jsnovais1000]

@hayperonotetoca ... for the kind of language you use, one can easily find out your real profile is; anyway, you seem not to live in Spain, at all; you are one of those impostors who live around the corner from my home, but can´t stand what I say neither can face me, face to face.

I´m inviting you to show up, that is, to show your real face, because I have a good lesson to teach you!

I am waiting for you and ready to face you! — Don´t miss it, mauzão, because I´m going to love to cach you!

[MsThinker16]

No matter what the political situation is in this country, that's a different issue, I think that these kids stil look better than the kids in the Bronx type area or kids in our public housing in AMERICA.

[shzywansui]

@MsThinker16 Absolutely true. But don't forget that there are plenty of children in North Korea who resemble kids in the Bronx. Watch the movie 'Crossing (Keurosing)'.

[jsnovais1000]

Despite all negative comments from brainwashed idiots at the service of western dirty propaganda and contrary to what is happening in the west, DPRK keeps advancing in all fields of human, economic and scientific development.

[craigisgreat2011]

@jsnovais1000 you are just as brainwashed as these little girls. i hope someone shoots kim jong il

[jsnovais1000]

@craigisgreat2011—I know who you are; you took a fake name, but without success; americans don´t behave like that; I know that you are one more helpless idiot that I happen to see almost everyday.

My friend, let me call you that, don´t waist your time and mine; as you very well know, I am ready to face you, any time; I am ready to face whatever idiot like you comes-up!

I am going to give you some good advice: spend some time looking for a job and get some education!—I can really help you.

[craigisgreat2011]

@jsnovais1000 n korea sux ma balls

[shzywansui]

@craigisgreat2011 It would probably be a catastrophe if someone shot Kim Jong Il. The instability could have serious consequences for North Koreans, and might even lead to a new dynasty. It would be much better for a Chinese-style liberalisation to take place, and the seeds of this reform have been planted. Twenty years from now, North Korea will probably be like 1980s China. But you're right about @jsnovais1000 being brainwashed. It's hard to see how outsiders could fall for DPRK propaganda.

[hayperonotetoca]

@jsnovais1000 ,,,,,,YOU REALLY THINK THAT OR SOMEONE TOLD YOU TO SAY IT ?,,IN FIRST CASE YOU ARE A DUMMY,, IN SECOND CASE YOU ARE A PARROT,,,

[jsnovais1000]

@hayperonotetoca

—Ouve, ó idiota, cresce e aparece, para termos uma "CONVERSA..."! Tenho muitos amigos espanhóis, mas nenhum como tu; já agora, quero ver-te o focinho para me certificar de que és quem eu penso!

I´m going to translate the above sentences into english for everyone to understand:

—Listen, you idiot, just grow-up and come over, for us to "TALK..."!

I have many spanish friends, but none like you; by the way, I want to see your snout for me to check if you are who I think you are!

[shzywansui]

@jsnovais1000 The DPRK is slowly improving, but it is still far behind the rest of the world.

[Iquaniqui]

reminds me of a pagent

[skywiz3]

WHY SO SERIOUS!?

[DeejaySmitt]

This looks just like the children of the Third Reich. Wtf

[elsquibbs]

This is scarier than NK's military.

[TaltosGirl]

thier danceing for a bag of rice and a peice of moldy bread

[Vinchenzo9111]

the sad part is that they are all smarter than meh...

[aero2525]

One false move.... THEIR FUCKED.

[Skarlis]

For a very sheltered country, their clothing sure is Western in this video.

[am1966ath]

Like hitler jugend..heil kim?

[Aterkomsten]

good educated kids bravo !

long live North Korea !

[allknowfather]

We have such a big family all over the earth. No matter what skin or hair we must love people. Children especially need to learn this no matter where we live on the earth to love one another.

[BlytheIolanthe]

how could they do that to those kids who r supposed 2 have fun at this age?!!

[Spriggangirl]

What a scary thing for these children to follow in a lifeless society. -_-

[ColinoM]

@Spriggangirl whats the alternative? western degeneration? these kids are atleast healthy...

[Spriggangirl]

@ColinoM Only for the elite, but the rest of the population are starving to death.

[shzywansui]

@Spriggangirl Starvation is often exaggerated. The famine has not been that bad since the Arduous March in the 1990s. But the average North Korean certainly doesn't have things easy.

[MrComingOfAge]

I actually like the song.

[Tihbialdunav]

They look like they are going to the army soon.

[Apollo15me]

are these poor kids on coke?

[LillianIaintian]

o my godness, they are getting crazy already

[thecharlotteness]

lol you can practically see their rib-cages through those clothes...

[saharacloud2]

i feel bad for those kids

[konigstiger1944]

@saharacloud2 they seem quite joyful to me

[Phantomregiment8]

This is just creepy....

[videochemist]

aww this is adorable. maybe north korea isn't so bad after all.

[RyanLoveheart]

oh i know, wouldn't they make great pets.

[Skarlis]

Is it just me, or does anyone else see the somewhat cruel irony of their costumes being European-based?

[natanwekills]

I cant see any cult of personality in this video

[mondeost2202008]

One question though. Does "teenager" exist in North Korea?

[wingedsoul]

@mondeost2202008

Yea, but they are all atleast half a foot shorter than the rest of the world due to malnutrition and are usually in military for training already.

[CarlosTadeus]

Children who are slaves of tyranny Kin Jon.

Youtube not mind.

North Koreia people living in misery.

[miarowson]

CREEPY!!!

[johnbourbon]

sorry for all of the sarcasm but the simple fact is that neither google or wikipedia are reliable sources for information regarding the study of psychology or neuroscience.

additionally, i'm not sure why you're interested in my age so i'll leave that one alone...

[johnbourbon]

we both agree that wiki is inaccurate. now, if google leads you to wiki, how can it be considered "reliable"? google searches will lead you to some accurate info, and some inaccurate info and is thus, by definition, unreliable.

i just can't make it any simpler. even for you.

[iwsab]

obviously if google leads you to wiki or johnbourbon's blog u ignore the link, because they would both be useless sources of info.

But google also leads you to work published by renouned institutions by world renounced authors. so u would read this. what can't u get on the internet these days?

[johnbourbon]

i've changed my mind. google is the PERFECT place for you and i'm certain you'll electrify the greater academic community with all of your findings!

good luck and i can't wait to see your published works.

[johnbourbon]

and of course any developmental psychologist worth his salt would encourage those interested in the subject to browse google for any and all reliable neurological/ psychological studies.

and where should we go to find peer-reviewed studies? wiki?

[EBKemanon]

Well this all seems fine to me! I guess all those scare stories about North Korea were false.

[xXimbleXx]

@Kemanon

You cannot judge a book by Its cover!

Und ja, Janique. Die armen Kinder, wirklich herzzerreißend das Ganze, fast wie aus einem schlechten Film :'-(

[ScarletandCreme32]

This is one of the most sinister things I've seen.

[willyrobinson]

i'd like to see this if they were older - like you know past puberty...lol

[CityHello]

DANCE OR YOU GET SHOT!!!!

[amoxi]

They look like a lifeless things. They are robots.

[HPPAV2003]

Wow, North Korea is awesome! I wish we could be a communist country too!

[Janique2100]

die armen kinder :-(

[ItstheHulktress]

I wish we could save them :(

[TheRepsol13]

Very Cute Laber Camp Children. I think they pass the test in this video. Now, they will get 1 week worth of rice for their family for job well done. :D

[anahmi]

perfectionism in these children who should be freely running around making trouble :(

[Quizline89]

North Korean Munchkins from the Wizard of Jong!

[hohenry1701e]

my god! they look like robot! There should be a rifle pointing to them a 100 yards away!

[thoithe21]

Kim Jong Il biggest lump of shit, the fake smile on those childrens say it all.

[jondel]

these children are forced to do this stupid dances. because if they dont do it, their parents are going to end up prison camps to do hardlabor!

[MrPiranja]

North korea don' must have the atomic energy and the atomic bomb

[Caedmon85]

Hmm, why am I suddenly not so worried about the prospect of fighting this nation of boys given to prancing?

[hellofaname]

is it just me or does their head look out of proportion to the rest of their body?

[1999smiley]

that's what they look like normally. Koreans have larger brains and therefore larger heads than Americans. And yes, this means they are significantly more intelligent than americans.

[xXimbleXx]

Keep talking like that and you wll sooner or later get your ass kicked by some 10 year old. Intelligence is not something you're born with, but rather something that can be trained and will grow as long as you push it. Geniuses are born every now and then, but even them if they just rely just on their talents will sooner or later be overtaken by people of hard work. Take it as an headstart, you either know how to use it or you will fall back and be just like anybody else.

[MontrealChic]

"hellofaname" what a striking observation what are u in grade 1 now?

[vtxtd2]

google "rushton race brain size" and graduate from grade 1 yourself.

[johnbourbon]

yes, "google" is the place to go to find any and all reliable neurological studies.

[amoxi]

look like a robot.

[TealAmata]

These are the kids they allow to eat. Sad., really. Kim Jon Ill looks rather well-fed, while his country is in famine.

[Calculon64]

This is what happen when you let fucking old people rule a country.

[iwsab]

what? u get a bunch of kids dancing? lol u want something better? perhaps adults dressed as big birds, draculars, and oscar the grouches? pfft

[hezzzzz3]

i bet that they will get shot if they mess up....

[kirby4blues]

It's more likely that they shoot the parents. It's easier to program propaganda into the children, keeps the population fresh, and less food is needed.

[mercidez]

Without a dout these children must be the best of their class...

[reemstrrr]

@hezzzzz3 they will be sent to a torture camp for 20years

so if the mess up i hope for them they get shot

[4061926]

Sad , one nation two countries .

[SeeYouNextFall]

Look like North Korea would be Disney World to a pedophile.

This shit is crazy.

[TruongTrieu]

That's why North Korea leader protect the people by not let the Westerner in North Korea.

[SeeYouNextFall]

You fool.

Haven't you ever seen reports of North Korean leaders taking young girls and boys and used them for sex?

Even Mao did the same thing.

Its not the Westerners you ave to worry about. Its your insane communist leaders.

And by the way Westerners CAN travel to North Korea.

[SeeYouNextFall]

America was meant to be a county for all races.

Thats why its called a "melting pot".

Hell, Ive seen more racism lately in Canada then the US.

[iwsab]

Haven't you ever seen reports of North Korean leaders taking young girls and boys and used them for sex?

thats propoganda with no evidence, but you should google about people like JFK and his insaciatle appetite for hookers.

[SeeYouNextFall]

There's a difference between a "hooker" and a young child.

A "hooker" is a grown adult that makes the decision to sell their bodies for sex.

A child HAS NO CHOICE. And is being forced by those pigs.

[rajasummer]

some they might think humans live only to eat, food food food hell no. north koreans are poor people and hungry. but they r rich in values full of beauty and wounders.they believe in themselvies they are in the rihgt direction they don't wana follow no body. they don't wanna be fuked up like some others????? you follow US you gonna be fuked up.

[LConoy]

They probably got their first morsel of food in days as a reward for being exploited in a propaganda film.

[dongsoola]

well.. if u watched some traditional Chinese play, the expression of people who act doesnt look natural.

Its similar to that. There is nothing wrong with how NK childresn is educated.

This video is just a propaganda.

[Hmsheen10]

its really not that creepy, ive seen stuff like this when i was little on PBS and stuff, like barney

[dudans78]

CREEPY N.KOREAN!

FOREVER S.KOREAN!

[malaymegabaz]

creeapy...yeacckkk, what the hell North ???

[antisocialism]

共产主义及社会主义是注定失败!现在全世界只有五个名字叫共产主­义国家的国家.有多少个正在搞资本主义呢?大家心照明白!在共产­国家的人民.个个做牛做马.共产党的幹部就大鱼大肉.当年毛泽东­的肚子那麽大.中国人民个个都骨瘦如柴. 大家心里就明白了.西方的共产主义和社会主义是不适合中国的!中­国共产党应该取消共党专政! 中国才有希望! 人权! 民主! 自由! 平等!

[antisocialism]

奴隶制(共产主义)，奴隶主(共产党)拥有奴隶(人民)的制度。­奴隶(人民)须为奴隶主(共产党)干活，无报酬，且无人身自由。­法律确认奴隶为奴隶主的私有财产，共产主义跟奴隶制也一样，国家­所有财产归共产党。人民跟本不可能享受自己生产所得的回报。奴隶­主(共产党)对奴隶(人民)握有生杀予夺的权力，可随意奴役、杀­害。奴隶(人民)没有独立的人格，没有任何自由和权利。

[nicycutegirl]

The kids look really cute and nice.

[cube11235]

This is creepy, but just as creepy is the right wing shit posting here.

[JessicaPhilomele]

Creepy..

[CelestialKindred]

In the 1960s North Korea was much more developped than its neighboring S. Korea and China,

those kids are not born in the right time.

[burstingwet]

Is Pedo Bear in here? I've looked and looked and can't find him!!!

[falconrap71]

ROTFLMAO!!!

[Omnious24]

Kids in California are doing this on behalf of the Obamessiah.

[Hmsheen10]

this is a little creepy, no offence

[Raffy4GMik]

now i know why those traffic ladies are so robotic...they were trained since childhood... can't say if i should be sorry or not... its culture..

[kimht90]

poor children.

[hekatelacroix]

this is disturbing...

[anonflux]

id hit it

[covernunt]

fuck u north. actually, i don't like them.

[steffs87]

if i could, i'd KILL the dictator of north korea and free all the people there. the most shoking thing is that they are isolated and don't even know what's happening in the rest of the world.

[m0kiee]

it sad.. that they dont have the freedom to watch cartoons on saturday mornings or to play video games.. and etc... yet they have to wake up in the morning and get trained and be brainwashed..

[otacs2]

@m0kiee What's so sad about not watching TV or playing video games?

[paronsoda]

@otacs2 Great reply @otacs2! :-)

You can start to wonder who is brainwashed if watching TV and playing video games means freedoom.

[erflaco1988cl]

@m0kiee like braimwashed by cartoons, tv and video games etc...

[AutumnNatae]

Its actually kind of cute when you look past the creepy uniform dancing and singing

[lilthingamajigs90]

what year is this???? Don't tell me it's in the 21st century!!

[RedundanceBoy]

This is almost as disgusting as our kids stuffing themselves with McDonalds food and getting diabetes under the age of 10.

[paperclips22]

Best idea for a video yet: obese children doing a creepy, unnaturally perfect, coreographed dance routine.

[senantiasa]

I bet you that these kids are more mature, take life more seriously than many 20 year olds in rich countries who are spoiled by their parents.

[Pyrethryn]

Unfortunatley, these kids also believe Kim Il Sung is the decendant of the offspring of a bear and a god.

Further, I bet these 'kids' are 18 and just very, very malnurished.

[paperclips22]

Cyborgs. Definitely, definitely cyborgs.

[alayalaya]

Do you think you are not a cyborg:))

[paperclips22]

HA! Wouldn't that be so cool? I'd want to have eyes that could shoot lazer beams.

I wonder if these kids can do that? :P

[rackyross]

from your very nick we all understand how shallow you are! do you know what a khmer was indeed? thanks to the US, china and soviet union for splitting korea in 2 countries, none of which is free to take their own decisions...

[MintyMojitto]

creepy..

[lina123]

they look kinda scary too me !!!!

[superxy1000]

This is very cute, though it is north korean propoganda.

[Tommo108]

couldn't agree more

[Ogiv]

oompa loopas

[Timosha321]

looks like an early 20th century film

[jamesthq]

Hail the marvlous technology of 1950's technocolour

[akeffo]

YES! Now I know it's true--elves exist! Pass the word on!

[sandmankim]

Curse you north koreans! (i'm south korean) you tried to kill koreans and american and more by sending a atomic super bomb! i saw in the news that koreans (north) are trying to rule the world so fuck u north koreans and kiss my ass hole

[Tommo108]

don't blame north koreans, blame kim jong ill.

[ryo17x]

Hey!!! do you think north koreans love Kim??!!!! you're wrong!!! in the past decades that people suffer from hunger, violence and other hostilities during Kims regime........ think again........

[kezza10mail]

why does everyone critise little kimmy...

c'mon fair go hey, just because its different to your own country doesn't make it wrong, it's like calling muslims wrong because its a different culture i have respect for him, he doesn't want outsider influence, he wants his country to stay true to themselves, and i like that about north koreans, they seem so dark and they seem to love him, maybe it is out of fear, but i don't think it is, they seem to truly love him, not as a consequence of fear

[Sshelly34213]

its wrong because people hve suffered for this government, because these people, this society they are trying to create are nothing but a bunch of mindless brainwashed slaves. They ahve NO mind of their own. I have no problem with something different from my own culture, but when a person isn't even free to have a mind of their own I do. Sorry! Sue me!

[Sshelly34213]

When someone takes away your right to make a decision, they basically take away what makes you human, and what makes you, you. Therefore this government needs to be destroyed.

[alayalaya]

Oh, please show me the country, where you are free? Yes, you right, when this country will be destroyed, these kids will be much happier, like Iraqi children

[Sshelly34213]

they're lives suck they're brainwashed, these are the "happy" kids, the kids starving in the countryside aren't.

[Thycid]

pure evil...

[WorldForeverChanged]

Those little boys probably don't know what homosexuality is.

[blackhawkwyy]

you should understand , this is just a step in the process of the development of those communist contries. this video reminds me of what china was like during the period of the great cutrual revolution back in 70s last century.

[martinjom]

those boys once grown up,i bet they'l gonna get ur ass...hehehehh

[beastlair]

I remember this kinds of shows. They used to be aired long time ago...long, long time ago...

[sindreS92]

the boys looks like ompalompas! lol

[AMWYESHUASAVESAMW]

I pray that North Korea can rid itself of that beast they have for a leader.

[smoothevan]

the watermelon boys are hilarious!

[FairyPrincessBoo]

That dance was so nice when they pointed at their smiles and went to one side (go to 1:16)! It was so fun!

[martinjom]

Damn,too bad! the pictures speak so LOUD! those kid are MALNOURISHED!

[nnas710]

the song's really squeaky. sounds kinda like chinese. i'm from south korea but i can't even understand the lyrics.

[rebekahxjin]

same here!

[honeybucket93]

so robotic, and the movements are those of an adult's! 0_0

[CanOfMinus]

that was so creepy, yet I couldn't stop watching.

[kathirasantosh]

Typical North korean propaganda.

[nnas710]

well.. the video's about rhythmic gymnastics for young children

[knowKiChulHak]

통일은 반드시 된다 우리의 사명이며 소원이다 waiting for the day to come....

[unico]

hmm pick of the litter children. ones that "look" healthy and bright skinned and happy.

dancing around...likely to some song about their Leader...bleh

T_T i hope one day NK bands together and gets rid of that clown

[AutumnNatae]

ino theywant everything to be "perfect"

[DearBeauty]

whats this supposed to be about ?

[bourne275]

North Korea's version of Hitler youth

[wooki212]

Don't be absurd

[semperfidelis777]

its true

[wooki212]

Don't be absurd

[rachelleandmindy]

Its so sad .

[380800]

Never trust a book by its cover. No matter how happy those kids are Kim Jong Il will not be able to hide the truth.

Thats just my own oppinion.
