  • THIS VIDEO SHOWS ONLY ONLY ONLY WHAT YOU CAN SEE ON A NORMAL TOURIST TOUR IN PYONGYANG!!!
    BEFORE leaving aggressive comments, please WATCH the DISCLAIMER: • North Korea (disclaime...
    This video is NOT meant to be a propaganda for the actual regime of the DPRK.
    We are NOT communists, nor journalists, we don't make politics and we just show what a normal tourist can see there!!
    Due to the contracts we had to sign we could NOT tell anything about the bad things anyone of you might think happen in this country. Which, even if it might be true, we obviously could not see and therefore confirm.
    PLEASE RESTRAIN YOURSELF FROM leaving incriminating comments or accusing us of anything!! DPRK is a heavily controlled country and one can not film or go anywhere he wants. This is all what we could and were allowed to film.
    Thank you for watching and respecting our work!
    ROMANIAN version here: • 3 zile in Coreea de No...
    3 days in North Korea (myths and legends, DPRK vlog, mass games, pyongyang)
    Our vlog is not sponored by any government or company.
    This movie is just our trip in the DPRK in october 2018, without any intention of supporting or fighting against any regime.
    Unfortunately, due to some technical problems, we lost aprox 65% of everything we filmed in the DPRK. From what we could save, from what we had additionally filmed with our phones and from what the other members of the group send us (a big thank to Gwen, Enrique, Chris...) we managed to make this movie.
    This is the reason for the low video quality in some parts of the vlog. The other reason is because in North Korea you are not allowed to bring professional video gear like big cameras, stabilisers or drones.
    The company we have been with (and can highly recommend): Young Pioneer Tours YPT
    Filmed with:
    Sony A6500 + OSS 10-15 si OSS 18-105
    Iphone XS max
    Samsung Galaxy S9+
    GoPro Hero6
    maps: (c) Google Earth
    music: Epidemic Sound

    Reading some of the comments below, full of hate, of disrespect for a man's work, words without thinking of what does filming in North Korea mean and what are you allowed to show, words repeated like a parrot after the western propaganda "nukes, starvation, labour camps"(which BTW are TRUE, BUT not the subject for a normal tourist) makes me realize that the world has MUCH BIGGER problems than the dictatorship of North Korea.

      Because if it is true, I did not find it funny at all, after all things I have heard to happen to people who break rules in North Korea that joke would have ended really really bad for that guy, and this is coming from a guy who likes dark humor (as long as nobody get hurts, and I'm not talking about snowflake feelings, I mean really hurt, arrested and physically tortured)
      Anyways, that would be my only critic, for the rest I'm still watching and interested
      EDIT: I just finished watching, thank you very much for sharing, it was good to see North Korea from a different perspective as the one used in the western media. But please, if next time you go to a place with very strict rules, don't try to prank somebody to break them just for the lol's (I'm glad the french guy didn't tried, and hopefully you told that to him because you knew he wasn't going to take you seriously)

      Who on earth would want to go to North Korea to see the bad bits anyway? Who would do that in ANY country. Have you ever gone to any nation in Africa or Latin America and asked to see their prisons? Why not?
      They spent 3 days there, and spend most of it behind a camera. That will never earn the trust of the North Korean guides, and as a result they were extremely limited in their movememts. What or how much were they expecting to see in that short time. I have spent weeks in North Korea, and travelled from Sinuiju in the north to Kaesong in the south and Nampo in the west. I am yet to go out to Mt Paektu in the east yet. I've seen more of North Korea than most westerners, so I consider myself more in touch with their culture and customs. Are they hiding things? No, they don't have the resources to do that, and frankly they have more important things to do than monitor just 500 or so Western tourists that visit their country every year.

And it's not like any goverment or media company could fake anti NK propaganda in Pyongyang by asking locals to do things that look bad.
      There's also atleast some footage of the poor in the countryside btw and atleast one series from VICE where they go to North Korean labour camps hidden away in the Siberian wilderness (Pretty much a way for NK to sell their people as slave workers to support the regime) which give glimpses into the lives of the approximate 85% of the population who aren't "fortunate" enough to live in Pyongyang. So not entirely unknown. Even though they try very hard to prevent that.
      Regarding the Korean peninsula many prople from both sides still consider eachother like split up siblings just with diffrent friends and really want a unified Korea once again so it's not like they're into maliciously blasting eachother. Especially not South Korea I'd say as they feel bad for them and know alot more than North Korea know about them.
      Edit: Although in newer documentaries things admittedly look like they're actually progressing somewhat, well atleast in Pyongyang and I feel that it probably has to do with more income from a increase in outsourcing labour camps as mentioned before. Or other scummy things, mayby trafficking but that one is pure guessing.

Most importantly, compelling content is the name of the game and this video smashed it. Thank you so much and I am going to hit the like button and subscribe. I am looking forward to a visit to Bucharest and Constanta. And I love that you do videos in English and Romania. I am going to watch the Romania videos as well. I was first interested in Romanian culture from of all places a Walgreens in Times Square New York. Above the register was a greeting in many languages. I saw bună ziua and said to myself, I want to know what language is that. Then I fell in love with the culture, movies, tv etc. Thank you and good luck.

Looking at it from all aspects. Are there bad things, yes? But, this tells me what it would be like if I went on a trip. Though I was worried the Australian guy was going to be arrested! yelp. Also it was respectful. There is one video about NK where the guy is drunk the entire time.

      @@Shubham-xr8ih The DPRK looks like an interesting place to visit because it is so unique in today's post-Cold War World. I see other people's videos that criticize the DPRK tours for only showing the positive stuff. There is nothing wrong if a tour highlights only the best scenery of a country. When you think about it... what tour anywhere will take people to see the worst parts of a country? For example if you were to take a group of Asian Tourists to Los Angeles, California.... would you take them to the worst gang controlled streets and the poor ghetto areas? I doubt that.
      I would be open to getting an opportunity to visit the DPRK. I believe as long as visitors respect the laws and customs... North Korea/DPRK should be a interesting safe place to tour. Anyone who cannot respect and follow the laws and rules should go visit somewhere else.

    Watched both of your NK series and thought it was very well done. I was wondering how come no one walking outside was carrying anything. Were there shoppers with plastic bags outside the supermarket? Then again I may have missed it. Nevertheless well done!

    The central city looks more isolated with less people

    Amazing! Thank you for this video! I hope it will enlighten most people’s view on North Korea. To be honest, I believe that the locals there are happy people - even with less than what people from the Western world have.

    Thank you for the very nice video of your visit. Things are loosening up little by little for tourists, and the citizens as each year passes under Kim Jong Un. I hope when we're (Americans) allowed to travel there again, the country will have the same level of freedom as Eastern Europeans enjoy today. I do pray for the citizens of the DPRK.

      If God existed he would be nice enough to never let a human being be born North Korean, who'll never even hear about a God and die.
