North Korean Mass Games - Part 1

TV Broadcast of the entire "Ever-victorious Workers' Party of Korea" held at the May Day Stadium in Pyongyang, North Korea on September 4, 2001.

Certainly the TV broadcast wouldn't do justice to actually being there and witnessing over 100,000 performers. This was pretty hard to find on the internet and very few people will ever see this outside of the DPRK, let alone travel to north korea to see their mass games.

Absolutely breathtaking!! Yet, I don't feel comfortable about the whole thing.....feels oppressive, pardon the pun!

You know that the screen in the back is 20,000 people holding up colored cards, its amazing

Starving, DPRK? — ...I have to admit that it happened but, currently, what you see when Googling Earth over DPRK is prepared just to feed the Google community. Guess what: what DPRK lets you see on its surface is for you to have some fun; the black-outs are for you to wonder what is going on underground...—Surprised?

DPRK is prepared to survive!—If US americans (imperialist capitalists) bomb their dams, US americans will become short of rice to eat! Those 50 million starving will grow to 100M.

It´s funny to see how capitalist boys/girls jump on the stupidity wagon to visit DPRK for the sole purpose of insulting their leader Kim Jong Il! They don´t understand that they have been brainwashed by their governments´ agencies and Google, and indoctrinated to dig for shit when they arrive at DPRK. When they arrive at DPRK, they try to play rich, and they can´t even wonder that, back in their countries, their moms and restaurants prepare their meals with rice imported from DPRK!—Surprised?

To truly get an understanding of the Mass Games and North Korea rent the documentary "A State of Mind". It follows two North Korean gymnasts training for a spot on the Mass Game stage and it is breathe taking!!! I found it on Netflix

only something this coordinated could come out of oppression... it is truly breathtaking, but at what price?

@jsnovais1000 Impostor of what? You are making random assumptions without any factual basis. Bush was a terrible "leader" who imposed imperialist policies on countries across the globe, and who condoned the use of torture and extraordinary rendition (not that other American "leaders" haven't). Still, Kim is obviously far worse than Bush. You said that you are glad that the DPRK has its prison camps, and that you would like people sent there. Anyone with that opinion is as good as a torturer.
