  • The most faked, staged and bullshitted documentary in History! It's freaking laughable.

  • korean women are really pretty

  • Comment removed

  • it is happening because you just said it. I'm not going to say nk shit is staged 100% but us and other got the idea that it evil just like they do about the us and other. that why you learn, read, and then see.

  • .....It's really scary that the North Koreans hate Americans so much. Now I'm freaked out....-_-

  • @KptodayUSA

    Not only America like the Taliban they hate everyone and everything that does not agree with them. Again like the Taliban they are at war with nearly the entire civilized world.

  • they just keep on doing coat for who?

  • In the end of this you can tell that it's mainly a front, they are just saying and doing that in front of the Camera to make it look like they are a productive and caring society.

    Because first and foremost, everyone is "writing" down the plans they already know about? That makes no sense. And second she is saying that she "vows" to do this and that, sounds pretty odd to me? Who "vows" to Government things? It's normally done and spoken about in an entirely different matter.

  • @TheSonyPSVite Actually 99% of the country are taught to HATE Americans and other countries for their way of living and for them not bowing down to their great leader.

    Ask any North Korean what they think of Japan or America and they will immediately respond with hate.

    So who do you blame here? The people for thinking like this and following this on their own willful actions or the people who impose it? I say BOTH.

    You don't convict the influences of people who murder, you blame the murderer.

  • however many times i hear north koreans speak, as a south korean, they sound REAAALLLLY weird. they sound like those 50s films that they used to make back then... but like weirder. They talk as if they are in a folk story, and they're narrating their lives... kinda dramatic and weird just.. plain weird. lolol They're really stuck in time aren't they. It's pretty sad..

  • It's almost unfathomable to think of living your entire life, trained to fear and loathe an entire group of people like the North Koreans do the Americans. Imagine if everyone in the US sang songs about destroying NK on a daily basis. And all public school history lessons in the US taught children about the evil North Koreans and their barbaric ways. And us stamps depicted American rockets destroying Pyongyang. Because that all happens in NK.

  • All comrades must do their best, and stick the task

  • Hello kitty o.O :D

  • I've noticed that throughout media and literature, when everyone is called "comrade", they probably have an effed up government. This is no exception.

  • Teaching children to blame america for everything is child abuse.

  • I watched film " Back to the Future 1 "?

  • A factory worker in america wont be able to afford a place to live. he or she will end up working 2 or 3 jobs like a true slave to make ends meet.

  • old czechoslovakian trams :-D

  • 2012 Spring Break Pyongyang Bitches!!!

  • If anyone thinks that this is the normal life for a Korean family, you need to get your head checked. In the middle of rush hour there were 3 people coming out of 2 high-rise entrances. There were about 5 cars on the road. The subway was pretty much barren. The kids were dressed in what seemed to be their best clothing (some of the girls seemed to wear a hanbok, which is a garment normally worn for celebration.

    This "documentary" was staged. Please don't think this is how the majority lives.

  • @chocko6913 i agree but remember the lady said that the guy filming was under close watch of the government so he probably couldnt have captured the "real" N. Korea.

  • @chocko6913 Of course it's staged, the Dutch film director was kidnapped at the time...

  • @chocko6913 i'm going there for a few days next year. want to "experience" the show for my self ;)

  • Comment removed

  • @chocko6913 This guy is right, if you go to to the National Geographic Website and, type Inside North Korea You can choose the first or second video. These videos talk about what North Korea is really like and proves that this video was very staged. The people of North Korea thought that Kim Jong-il was the son of God, and worship him like a god. They think he made the first hamburger and Kim claims to have shot 38 hole in ones (in golf)on the same day.

  • @chocko6913 you must be a over comfident american..

  • @starboyzhou Nope. Not American at all actually. I do however live in the US, and I can guarantee you that I don't sing praises for this country either. That being said, if I had to chose between the US and North Korea, I'd chose the US every single time. At least here I can talk bad about the government without fear of them sending me to a "indoctrination camp" or harming my family in any way.

  • @chocko6913 I rather live in china as I am chinese

  • This documentary seems like bs. These are probably high-ranking government officials acting like North Korea is a fun and happy place to live. The Nat Geo documentary shows more of the truth.

  • @yiyupan This documentary IS bs. I mean think about it... North Korea doesn't seem that bad here right? We know so little about it and seeing this would make everything think it's great there when it's really not. You know?

  • Goddamn... Kimjong, burn in hell, you fucking cunt.

  • @Taraalcar how dare you insult the dear leader, he once sneezed and entire garden of flowers sprung up in the middle of a barren field.

  • wow, i gotta say the female teacher is hot lol

  • I watched a French documentary on north Korea

    And they reflect the exact same things

    The kids getting brainwashed, people blaming Americans :(

  • @pyeoldust but what about the emaciated starving children? They only let the most healthy appear on camera. What about all the people who are already dead from starvation? What about camp 18 and camp 22, where people and whole families are forced to remain for LIFE if just a single family member says anything that could be interpreted as opposition to kim jong il. There is no economy. They have hundreds of expensive, totally empty buildings along the border that are simply for show.

  • Save them.

  • Hell yeah Kim is finally dead

  • Kim's dead!

  • even if it is so bad country, they feel it is good, that's what is warming my heart :)

  • @YoniKwon It's all for show, and out of fear of having their entire families, as well as themselves, imprisoned in concentration camps. check out the Google Tech Talk "Born and raised in a concentration camp" watch?v=Ms4NIB6xroc

  • I have a very strong feeling that the North Korean govt employed actors to paint this slanted picture of North Korea.

  • @carlsm95 Do you even know what it's like in North Korea? There's no way in hell the North Korean govt would even allow this shit, in fact if they knew they were being filmed the visitor who was filming would have been sent out of the country immidiatly or killed..

  • @izzboxer1996 No, of course they allow visitors (and cameras) in the country once in a while. But when they do it is strictly regulated, they watch every move, only allow certain things, and present a slanted view of their country. Foreigners are always accompanied by minders.

  • Did you know that this documentary was mostly shaped by the NK government? They only showed the "very best" of NK and what they want you to see. Real documentaries like NatGeo's one actually try to get behind the facade thats displayed in this film, where life is dreary but the family seems to be content enough. They are among the more privileged. In reality, over half of NKs population lives in extreme poverty and are malnourished, but they would never allow foreigners to catch a glimpse that.

  • haters lol

  • @euro98 If the U.S. were truly a "bully", it's fair to say that W. Europe would have been much like E. Europe after World War II, but it was the U.S. who, under the Marshall Plan, rebuilt Europe. The U.S. didn't have to do it, but we did. The Soviet Union didn't do it in E. Europe, and let those nations' rot for 50 years.

    Everyone thinks the U.S. is a bully when we attacked Iraq(a few times in the 90s) and Serbia but forgetting that those two countries participated in mass genocide.

  • I love how they blame the USA for everything when in fact its Kim Jong Ils fault.

  • Comment removed

  • damn that place is like a damn cult.

  • **power outage** i know they glad to have that break.....

  • how has this entire country not drank a bottle of cyanide.......I mean it's so dreary and depressing.....and it's fucked up because this shows how warped Kim Jong-il, their government and the Juche philosophy is............

  • If i was learning that shit in school everyday..i couldnt wait for the marines to come...goddamn xD

  • at 5:00 when that song said....everyday we live in glory,i wanted to hear a group of back singers go like :"my aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaass"

  • it's all lies. this is just what they WANT you to see.

  • @vboytan this is nothing like vietnam

  • this is what orwell talked about

  • Lol we are begging for mercy all right!

  • ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! It's just like nam!!!!

  • North korea is like the fat kid at school he thinks hes all tough until someone finally punches him in the face and he cries like a little bitch

  • @GTA4fanatic118 Eric Cartman?

  • @TheRealGreenAutumn yes eric cartman

  • Kim Jong-Il picture in the metro? WTF

  • The Beatles brought me here

  • 9:15 that is something I have rarely seen in a company, someone actually admitting they have made mistakes.

  • @OhReallyNoWai i know right! she just came out and said it

  • Kim Jong Il should be tortured to death for all that shit he done to the people

  • See that picture at 2:19? Thats for the photo, aft that its back to chewing bark off trees

  • It is because of Russia ! !!!!

  • White blouse!

  • Everyone watching this know that this is what the NK's want us to see. Some of this footage was used as an example of propaganda within NK. Fanciful yes, but bullshit all the way.

  • north or south same shit hole

  • Anybody knows what the name of the song is played at 7:40?... Thanks

  • what do you do in the snow? i throw snow grenades! ok what do you do? i launch snow nukes!!!!! good little comrad

  • We could blame Oussama Bin Laden for 9/11

    We can blame Hitler for WoII

    We can blame Religion for all the Wars we had up to date.

    You can blame Me taking your time.

    Could Hitler still 've made WOII if he had a good youth ?

    Would criminals still steal and murder if they had money and love.

    Would There still be war if there would be nothing to fight about.

    This is all an dream No State would get rid of its arms.

    No state would fully allow peace-full protest.

    Fuck u EARTH

  • Take a group of koreans to dubai :) lol

  • So why can't we blast that dictator to kingdom come?

  • @StarryEyedTash because we need their existence to better understand why freedom is important. You can't be satisfied with one thing until you have another in this life. Many Americans still need to see this to understand that communism is to be treated as hostile.

  • @SirGabriel2076 The Last paragraph of the first article of the Constitution states generally that the rights of the Americans only apply to Americans.

  • @SirGabriel2076 It means that the best way to defeat United States is to shake the beliefs of the individuals.

  • @SirGabriel2076 Really ?

    If you think about it there is not 1 perfect state on this planet.

    Look at America ... they use their economy to manipulate other countries ... they praise human right so badly and yet they won't close Guantanamo Bay.

    The 1 and only problem on this planet is difference.

    People won't accept the differences and they make war Because of : Religion,Ideas,Gold,Oil, etc.

    Only if and when we forget these differences we can walk straight on the line to the future.

    Im out.

  • the eerie thing is this depicts the GOOD part of north korea. outside of the cities, people have it so much worse. half the people are malnourished and struggling with starvation.

  • My heart cries out when I see those lies the Nortrhern Korean state are filling the children with. To live in North Korea must be like you canno't breath fresh air though you are not aware of it because this is the only life the state shows you. If North Korean society is so great why can't you leave? If the society is so great why is everything to blame on imperialism and US? I was almost laughing when I saw the scene that the electricity shortage was due to American imperialism! So tragic!

  • @MissHippoLover They don't have a president, Kim is a dictator and "the son of God". It would be a great step forward having a democratically chose president...

  • 5:00 i thought communists hated nazis!

  • 5:10

    Hitler?

  • actually pyoneyang gets thousands of tourists each year, granted most are russian and chinese))) im pretty sure the people of north korea are happier than you think, they kno of nthing better, they think n.korea is prospurous. they are probably the mosrt patriotic country in the world))

  • Watching this makes me realise just how fucked up this world is and how blind we are, we're like little ants. Nk is fucking stupid, I feel sorry for them. Having said that, our way of life isn't perfect either, and if you think our way of life is perfect, you really think we're the greatest, then you're brainwash too I'm afraid.

  • @CecenaGuy Dude just because one guy is evil does not fuckin' mean that every one in North Korea is evil you dumbfuck.

  • @TheSonyPSVita Not just one guy. The whole Worker's party. The people outside are also seen as evil, but they are just brainwashed, unfortunate people.

  • @TheSonyPSVita He never said that everyone in North Korea is evil though, you dumbfuck.

  • @Nomiss9 Yeah he did you racist cunt.

  • @TheSonyPSVita He said that the nation is fucked up (as in the government, which IS undescribably fucked up). He also said that Kim Jong-il was an evil piece of shit, which he was. Also, how does this make ME a racist? Fuck you, man.

  • @CecenaGuy Well... I think the Usa works at the same level in matters of propaganda...

  • @1812over2 even if US has propaganda or anything....at least the people will not die from hunger like that :(..and at least no giant slavery camps will be like that....fuck let them steal all the natural resources....ANYTHING is better than watching a person die cuz there's no food! i wish god ends their suffering soon...this is not right

  • @1812over2 LOL, all right Captain Hyperbole.

  • @CecenaGuy Luckily he's dead now.

  • @gaffneyal, it's not like you just go there.

  • I lol'd when the little said he threw snow grenades... instead of snowballs. Silly North Koreans.

  • Im sorry, but this place makes me sad. IM NEVER GOING ON A VACATION THERE!!!

  • @gaffneyal you cant no americans are allowed in that country; the country is isolated from the outside world.

    if you managed to get inside north korea witch would be IMPOSSIBLE you would get sent to a work camp raped worked to hell and you would be in the news;

  • @123nypd so thats why people have to use hidden cameras when they are over there? Wow. I just cant imagine.......

  • @123nypd banning americans from entry has been lifted since jan 2010, !

  • These are the lucky North Koreans who aren't starving. The very lucky ones have mansions and villas.

  • Watch this with the Beatles playing in the background lol

  • It's heart breaking to see how bad it is.

  • i feel sorry for these north koreans, because its not their fault that they are brain washed by propaganda

  • Reading the comments I'm surprised that you think this is bad, these people are of the elite in NK they are the very few who are very lucky. If you just travel a tiny bit outside this 'studio-city' you will find that the people are living in disgusting conditions, dying of hunger. Even resulting to cannibalism!! Millions spent on aid from many countries/charities end up being directed to the military, never reaching those who NEED it.

    Don't be fooled by 'dear leader' and his propaganda machine!

  • i wonder if some of them know that everything is a false..and they are afraid to find others like them...like 1984

  • Teacher: "Have any of you ever played in the snow?"

    Child: "Me"

    Teacher: "Yes, tell me"

    Child: "I throw snow grenades"

    Teacher: "Fine, now sit down"

  • North Korea reminds me of the country of Camatoz, with it's capitol Central from A Wrinkle in Time.

  • Comment removed

  • lol 1:40 those ppl just wont get over our great country!!!

  • YEAH,BUT IN THE END,SELF-RELIANCE IS WORTH IT.CUT OFF ALL SUPLLIES FOR AN AMERICAN,HE WILL DIE OF STARVATION,AND A NORTH KOREAN WILL SURVIVE MOST LIKELY.

  • @sonikue23

    u serious ?

  • @skuterixas91 well,think about it.

  • @sonikue23

    Yes, I see your logic and it makes a lot of sense. However, what reason will bring a people to starve and survive on self-reliance? Even though they have a lot of endurance and self-courage, the principle behind it is all wrong.

  • i bought the book named "nothing to envy" now translated into chinese. hard to believe north koreans still lived such lives.

  • Man, they brainwash them at a really young age. So much for Sesame Street, Mickey Mouse, and Dora.

  • The N. Koreans are really testing the americans they don't know that they'll get their asses whooped

  • Did the government turn off the power in the textile plant?

  • Man, I would love to grab a group of North Koreans, bring them to the u.s., and show them all the awesome things we have here that they've never seen before. I wonder then if they'd queston their state.

  • @vickyg51

    they would probably thing we are feeding them imperialist propaganda. it's a lie!!!!

  • @vickyg51 What is this awesome things?

  • @vickyg51 THEY'D PROBABLY think of us as sinners and unsophisticated

  • @vickyg51

    USA is broke shit hole

  • @angelusp777

    LOLOLOL Okay. Keep telling yourself that ;)

  • @vickyg51 People from south korea and china sneak into N.Korea with books, movies, mags, and anything they can to give to North Koreans. I would love to see their happy faces.

  • @Darkteen75 they would just get addicted to porn like the rest of us. at least they aren't addicted to porn.......yet.

  • @Floodlezoot The people are not the govt is. They take people off the streets and females that break the law and rape them then kill them, and their is no age limit for them.

  • @Darkteen75 have you been there. I have. I didn't see that but I was only there for 3 days.

  • @Floodlezoot When did they let civi's in. I though only govt officals and "friends" of Kim could enter or leave.

  • @Darkteen75 they had a joint project at the time, funded by Hyundai where they opened a big complex in the Kumgang mountain region.  If I were American, I doubt I would have been able to go, but because I'm Canadian, they let me in. I was the only white guy there, I'm sad to tell you. We bought things with American money, including a bottle of alcohol with a snake twirled around in it. It was mandatory to attend the circus. I talked to many North Koreans. They seemed ok.

  • @Floodlezoot Speak for yourself!!

  • @vickyg51 Well, "awesome" things do not necessarily constitute freedom. George Orwell stated that he hated American materialism just as much as Russian authoritarianism. I wonder it you're going to question your country now.

  • @vickyg51

    Um, hate to break it to you, but the US is in a cult of personality too. People are led to believe that the US is all powerful, the military is invincible, etc etc...

  • @vickyg51 I think they do question their state, but they don't dare say it aloud, doing so would mean death.

  • @vickyg51 yes! and don't forget about scientology, NAMBLA, serial killers, lots of guns, the awful health care system, CIA, guantanamo bay, the largest incarcerated population in the world, tom cruise, paris hilton and rebecca black. :D

  • @KusanagiMotoko100 better than North Korea, even South Africa is an improvement, at least they know what rights are

  • @gcode70 don't take it so seriously XD

  • @KusanagiMotoko100 i wasn't, calm down man

  • @vickyg51 theyd probably die of fright seeing how powerful the developed world is

  • @vickyg51 Not everything about the US is awesome keep that in mind

  • @vickyg51

    Well... That's the thing. Most likely, they don't actually believe that North Korea is THE BEST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD BECAUSE OF GREAT COMRADE KIM JONG-IL.

    They do these things because they're afraid of the consequences of NOT doing it. They're not stupid. The put one toe out of line, they get an entire really pissy government on top of them. They don't have the ability to organize resistance because the control is total and absolute.

  • They should've sell it as a movie instead of "documentary" so we can see what are they dreaming.

  • They're jammed in the 1950's.

  • i enjoyed the story :)

  • I wonder what the crime rate is in north korea....

  • lol, starvation, but they can afford nukes

  • They are the modern Nazi germany

  • @ezekielthaprophet

    Modern? LOL these people are living in the stone ages.

    Plus Nazi Germany had a booming economy until they lost the war.

  • @ezekielthaprophet I wouldn't call it modern... there stuck in the 20th century. I think you mean that their the present day Nazi Germany.

  • the teacher called the kids "comrades" lolololol

  • The little girl had colorful clothes! That's the first.

  • @PhoneHalHome

    This video was more or less a show created by the NK government. The reality for most North Koreans is very different.

  • I hope all you who watched this realize that this could happen in this country if we continue to let our Federal gov't expand as it chips away at our civil liberties and our so-called free market capitalist system. We need to elect leaders in our gov't who are not busy-bodies and will work to reduce the size and scope of gov't all the while deregulating our economy and society and leaving it in the hands of the people to decide. Freedom and peace is the only way for real prosperity for all us.

  • @EdMan2012

    To be honest nothing like this could ever happen to western countries, primarily because we have one thing the north koreans don't; communication. Primarily the internet. The typical North Korean has not even the slightest idea of how the west is like, they only think of us as imperialists because they are told to think that. Most of them don't even know people have walked on the moon. This severe lack of knowledge is what allows the dictatorship to continue.

  • @HDaviator

    Well, I'd like to inform you that there are congressmen working diligently to make the internet less free as we speak. How would like a President who could have the power to shut off the web with the flick of a switch for our national security? All I can tell you is that never say never. Our freedom and liberty will not be taken away so extravagantly as in Nazi Germany, but through stealth of legislation. Most Americans are oblivious of what passes through congress. Ignorance in USA.

  • "The Pathetic americans kneel on the ground

    They Beg for Mercy" lol

  • The MOST STUPID LEADER i have EVER Heard !!! idiot !!!

  • This reminds me of George Orwell's 1984.....Except real.
