Chongryun, the Workers Party of North Korea, is meeting in Tokyo. It’s easy to imagine we are in the heart of North Korea as over 10,000 fiercely patriotic members come together to celebrate the dictator Kim Jong II’s party leadership. Commitment to the cause starts young thanks to the Party schools run outside the jurisdiction of Japanese education authorities. This is the first time that the Northern Korean community has allowed any Western media to film inside their schools. Taught in Korean with censored North Korean text books, these children will never hear any criticism of their homeland.
We follow eighteen year old Jong Ryol and his classmates as they prepare for their graduation visit to the North Korean capital, Pyongyang: a school trip into a country still considered hostile to the outside world, but for these students, a journey “home”. Jong Ryol returns from his trip with a glowing report Yet the bulk of funding from Japan does not come from patriotic ex-pats. Most of Japan’s 18,000 gambling parlours are owned by Koreans with an estimated $250 billion turnover. While North Koreans overlook their leaders’s autocratic ways, it seems he turns a blind eye to the origin of the money his regime receives.

It clearly depicts the importance of having fatherland like North Korea. It's an over two-decades old record; however, the people's mind probably has not changed a bit.
Subtitles are very poorly done.
The student doesn't say his parents are North Korean. He actually says his parents are Chosenjin, referring to an old name for Korea (Chosun, sometimes spelled Joseon) prior to division. This isn't being pedantic, it's an important statement of identity.
The part where the subtitles says "There is no official channel for my complaints" is also weird editorializing. He just says "It can't be helped".
It gets the mom wrong too. She says "They learn about the history and language of our country" not "They are proud to be North Korean".
Chosenjin is now a slur in Japan for Korean people. It doesn’t make sense for subtitles to say that when an English speaking audience wouldn’t understand. The point of subtitles aren’t to translate word for word, it’s to convey a understand to the audience.
Wow, it seems more worse there now, people seem to be smiling more here and eating better than the North Korea today
I wonder if any of them are still alive and if any of them went to the concentration camps.
What concentration camps?.
Yes one guy is alive Kim jong um 😂
I encourage anyone who thinks socialism is utopia/wonderful to move to any socialist country of their choosing and live on what the common people live on, after 12 months I’ll listen to their comments. Indoctrination is slavery but the slave embraces it voluntarily and hasn’t a clue how to live otherwise. And given the chance, 90% of those North Koreans would leave their country if allowed, same for other socialist countries.
Ingsoc be like
Is there any doubt that after realizing that one is happy to [specifically] be away from another person/group, What One Considers To Be Freedom (and what one considers to be the opposite of freedom) appears to have been "edited [by an outside/external factor]"?
Is there any doubt that you are able to insult only my knowledge and that only your body can be insulted by mine?
Is there any doubt that a nation cannot be responsible for "crimes" the way that a man can be responsible for crimes?
Is there any doubt that I'm too much of a poet for CZcams?
Where is Jong Ryol now?
