i watched a video on a guy named vexed and his story about when he went to NK and a lot of the other tourists gave him a hard time because he was recording . Did you experience anything like that ?
Indigo Traveller. Eine wort: STUPID.
PLEASE NATURE GET RID OF HIM
I think a lot of you are missing the point. Really just think about what he says in his videos. I believe there are messages behind it. He has to be careful as I’m sure he doesn’t want to get into trouble
Thank you Juliet 😍
Indigo Traveller Np. Keep up the great videos! :)
He talks very softly too. I assumed it was because the rooms are bugged or there are minders. It’s unintentional ASMR. Lol
Exactly. He just wantes to be safe and he is just respectful of the country as it is. Each countries have different culture and belief...and we just have to respect that especially if its not the same as your own...
Exactly. I’m guessing visiting North Korea can be an amazing experience because it truly looks like a very beautiful country, all while it may also be scary because of how strict the regime is, and I’m guessing being there as a visitor is like constantly walking on eggshells to stay safe. I also believe it’s fully possible to appreciate a place regardless of the political situation and that you won’t get into trouble if you don’t cause any trouble, at least in a place like North Korea. Respect the country, its leaders and its people and leave politics out of it when visiting a place that is or has been behind an iron curtain. Closest I’ve been myself to such a situation is China. It’s a lot more open than it has been, but you still have to be a bit mindful of what you say and do in a very public situation such as on the Internet.
You really have to read btwn the lines in these types of videos. In order for him to even leave the country with this footage he isn't allowed to speak negatively. All footage is reviewed by North Korean officials. Scary af
You can tell that he is censoring his thoughts for sure so he could make this video. I think a lot of people missed this when leaving comments. They probably only really let him do this video in the first place was if he did show case all the "nice" things about NK.
Once he is outside he can edit and add his real perspective. So, not a valid excuse
@@perezpizani - Unless he ever plans on going back there again.
Straight up, even I am scared of talking smack about Kim and I have never been there. I don't know if you heard about the whole Erdogan ordeal whom had people rat on foreign smack talkers. Actually led to 'arrests' and turned into the military coup.
@@talhamikaaiyl5483 I hear you. I am so scared that would not even dare to go there.
North Korea looks like an unfinished game.
Infdev
Or like however you say it
The NPCs havent loaded yet
The tourism pays for updates
Beta mode
The real game of life
I couldn't imagine anyone doing a better job of showing us this country. You are respectful, very careful with your words and actions (as you HAVE to be), and still show us things we otherwise would never see. I love these videos. Thank you!
"WE WERE THE ONLY PEOPLE THERE". This happened when he was in the hotel, on beaches, in grocery stores, and anywhere else that would be a privilege for a NK citizen. Especially a gorgeous 8km hike
I don't think 'going on a hike' would be a privilege for a North Korean citizen. When you barely have enough food to survive that is the last thing you want.
@@Arigator2 you have a really good point. I honestly didn't even think about food to begin with. I'm so used to eating whenever I'd like. (I'm truly not trying to be sarcastic).
it's like a weird ps2 video game where there are no civlians npc
Dan M7 What u said about meat is extraordinarily incorrect
@@emilymader5206 he has a valid point.
Looking for a vacation with deserted beaches you know where to go.
But we can’t go on the beach. It’s not allowed 😂
@@lovique well we all have different COVID protocols so you don’t know
@@youngvertt6608 Yes. It’s a joke
hope you like frigid waters
Ancient SPARTA !!
He has to keep his voice low and stay complementary cuz ... you know.
Being a receptionist in this hotel is the easiest job in the world. 😂
there’s only reason to be at work one day in a year. the rest of the year is slavin’ time
That is if they even get paid 💀
They wouldn’t be paid only given food
@@leeshybaby9541 North Korea is going through a famine right now, you would be lucky to be receiving food
What does he think about when he gets ready in the morning? Where does he get his clothes? Where does he wash them? What happens if no one is there at all?
It’s so eerie and creepy. It’s almost like a post-apocalyptic country. Everything empty
@jannis joplin okay that's bullshit. I'm not from America and even I know that just isn't true. he's driving for a Scandinavian + Finland like model and let me tell you, things are great over here.
@@HENAEZ i've heard that scandinavian countries have a great socialist system that acutally works well for everyone, not like in belgium :S
I want to visit some day!
@@kenzo_sc lol scandinavian countries are quite capitalist, it's just they have good welfare estate
@@kenzo_sc it s a difference betweeen Marxism Socialism and Social Democracy
I feel like everything there is fake and a setup with paid actors. they teach their children to stab our military men made up as stuffed fluffy dolls in preschool!! they chant death to Americans they do crazy s*** because they tell their people were after them they lie to their people so much they tell them that the food source comes from somewhere else and that when it comes from us it's because we're buying time so they don't kill us when in reality we did it to help them
All North Korean videos are exactly the same. They take these folks to the same exact places every time.
That’s the propaganda machine at work.
Yes very spooky- everything for show!
Like any other country you visit nice places
Treat NoKor as a theater production if you are visiting it!
Yes! It's very true. To various extents, all communist nations only will show tourists what they want them to see. DPRK strayed from straight Marxist Communism, as their system is a mix of Kim I'l Song's ideaology, "Juche" ("Self-Reliance") and Marxist and Stalinist Soviet-style Communism. The DPRK only allows a certain message to reach tourists about the history of the DPRK, it's government, struggles of it's people, etc. It also strictly polices the messages from the outside world to reach it's citizens. They enforce both what goes out and comes in with very harsh punishments. There are several documentary videos available about DPRK here on CZcams. In many cases, from large producers, like "National Geographic" to smaller, independent producers, the government line is always the same, the tourist locations featured are always the same. Sometimes, the same government minders and tour guides are the same and the same government approved cameral shots and angles are used. You are right. For the most part, if you've seen one DPRK video, you have seen them all.
The host is speaking in a suppressed tone, everywhere he goes. The message is well received by the audience on how to film in NK. In addition to this, reading between the lines is crucial; although it is complemented by footage of Empty hotels, roads, workers at the bridge.
Why not do a voice over when back home to tell us what he really thought? This is like watching a hostage video when everyone's the hostage!
@@robert7622 I think it's definitely good to get his impressions while there just to make sure you have in-the-moment thoughts captured, otherwise you forget things when you go home (although I would appreciate some more post-return commentary too)
Yes indeed, the tone one would use when aware censors are in a room somewhere monitoring every word.
The level of silence in that hotel is creepy to say the least. Hotels are usually lively places where people conduct business meetings and/or have pleasure. Such a pity because the natural beauty of North Korea looks magnificent. So much potential but the people seem depressed. Sad😔
Beautiful country, beautiful people, ruined by politics, what a shame.
Kita beautiful country? You have no idea how the countryside look
This is what's wrong with most people. They conflate the people of a country with the government. People are people. Government and religion are meant to control you not make you a happier or better human being. So EF all governments that don't work for the people they represent and if you believe in God (I won't call you stupid but) you need to rethink reality.
Kita Trump and the Republican Party are ruining our beautiful country. Why do you think Trump and Kim Jong-un made exchanges? Satan and his devils know their own kind.
It's not really free politics. It's a 3 generations dictatorship, killing everyone that opposed them including family like younger brothers, half-brother, uncle, and sent to labour camps. If you say anything against the "leader", 3 generations are sent to labour camps, basically your kids and grandkids or your parents.
@@soontobexpat Talking about god and reality, you need to rethink.
My impressions:
- Here is a beautiful park. North Korean people cannot visit here
- Here is a delicious full meal. North Korean people obviously do not have this much food, based on how thin they are
- Here is a wonderful hotel. North Korean people cannot stay here
- Here is a good story: but I have to whisper it to you
- Here is a religious temple. North Korean people cannot worship here
- Here are some nice shops. North Korean people cannot shop here
- Here are some roads. North Korean people cannot drive here (no cars)
I have traveled and worked extensively in South Korea. It is a different world. I wish the people of the north all the best. Their government ... well.. not so much.
Spot on.
Here is kim Jong Un, north korean people thinks he's a god.
Sad truth
At least they don't give themselves under america
Well the south is to fast
The north is a dictator ship
I hope someday both can find the niddle of all that shit
The radio like thing which you see in 5:52 is actually the transmitter with mics and all. They purposely made it look like a radio but it doesn’t work and if you check in the back, you’ll find many wires passing through it. It’s mandatory to have in every room in the country.
I know I am 5 years late, but just stumbled on this series and I have to say than kyou for taking us to this secret yet very interesting place. Great videos and great series! Greetings from Poland!
Kind of reminds me of the Truman Show. You can just imagine when he leaves his Hotel room everybody scrambling to their possitions.
Benjamin Button Ooh, good point.
Damn
Dam never thought of it like that
Lol exactly what i thought.
wow perfect analogy,,it might be just like the Truman show,,how scary is that..he probably had cameras all over his private room listening and watching him..
Don’t believe for a second that you were NOT being watched..............
you really think they have the resources to constantly watch tourists? sure in some hotels, like the main one in pyongyang, there's a high chance of being watched. but outside of pyongyang there's little investment and little need to watch them constantly. the north korean minders aren't paid enough nor have the resources to spy full time...
@20ZZ20 Exactly! I dont know what these people are thinking
My ex girlfriend was a television New Zealand news reporter, on assignment to NK all the journalists were placed on specific levels of the building this occurred not just in Pyongyang. It became apparent to her and colleagues their was a faint glow at night around the edges of the mirror, and upon closer inspection found there were 2 way mirrors everywhere. They also pretty openly bug all phone lines. They watched and listened to everything from conversations to myself and her employer, to watching her shower and dress. If I were a journalist, female at that, I'd avoid like the plague.
You honestly think they have cameras or bugs or minders literally everywhere even on the beaches or that mountain they went up? Come on dude and take that tin foil hat off. North Korea is not a rich country. They don't have the resources or the money to do things like that.
What are you even thinking, of course North Korea can afford microphones and cameras.
i actually got nervous when you insulted the roads. THE ROADS. imagine your country being so fucked people are worried theyll die for *hearing someone else insulting your roads lightly*
Yea I did too lol and him asking if he’s allowed on the stairs just felt so weird. Like asking your mom if you can use the bathroom or something
@@taylorrich-lane454 thats almost exactly what comes to mind. its like sitting at the dinner table and working up the courage to ask to be excused while your military step dad is absolutely gonna say 'SIT THE FUCK DOWN' or something
@@sevensesnvelasdljkaalkjkskksk I LOL'd at "military step dad" ... been there bro
I got nervous too! But we know that everything got approved so it’s all good
Is this actually North Korea excuse my not knowing. But I thought video and cameras were not really allowed to be used so freely and it just looks or appears more like South Korea to me. But what would I know I haven’t been to either. Just trying to learn more.
The room he stayed in was in a resort area that used to be reserved for South Korean tourists were allowed to come up and visit the park. When a South Korean woman wandered off premises and was shot by a guard, that put an end to such visits, yet the the infrastructure remains.
You were defiantly being watched, your mountain tour was planned as a way of showing you the “beauty’ of the country; your hotel was empty because no one within the country has access to it; your room was designed to make you think “wow, what a great place”
Basically everything you experienced was controlled in some way to hide the famine, extreme poverty, and death that occurs on a daily basis within that country.
Nice view
I thought the exact same but with them losing SK tourists, that's why they are opening it others repainting the bridges ready..very beautiful but it's a shame they had to engrave the mountains even natural isn't save
I feel like this was completely choreographed and didn’t enjoy as much as there are other documentaries that show both the people and the history oppressiveness if the regime. One documentary took the travelers to a countryside where a fake village had been constructed.
@@daniellelangley4003 Which documentary?? Could please share, I would love to watch it!!
no shit Sherlock
You ate more food then 90% of the people there will see in a week
Yeah or maybe in a MONTH
@Melan Colín or maybe in a century 😂😂😂

Wrong, it's not mid afrika
@@ArythemB oh okay because you would know because your starving and live over there right? Dumbass spelled AFRICA WRONG
when I saw the TV in the “modern” room I was shocked
North Koreans have tv, listen to yeoni park
much much love for you my guy
You know that room was getting ransacked every time he left.
Love your profile picture.
Without a doubt. It amazes me that NK regime allows tourists to now more openly film like he’s doing here.
As someone who used to work in a secret agency , i can almost confirm 100% that every room was "prepared" for the guests/tourists.
So if you ever go there , best is to keep your mouths shut in your hotel rooms , or if you have to talk-film then speak in high regards of NK
rooms prolly bugged too
@@ilikefood1666 the room radios are the bugs. They have more wires then needed behind them and they don’t play music 🎶 for anyone who stays in those rooms.
a shirt with the word "rebel" on it? you have balls
and you think they understand/read english?
Kilian b. Some do
maybe 0.01% max unless you mean they can read "hello" or "thanks" or "please"
Not really. I don't think they'd care unless it said "Rebel against your government." Now traveling to North Korea in the first place-that takes balls. I wouldn't touch that country with a 500 foot poll.
I wore a shirt referencing Number 6 from the Prisoner in Tiananmen Square, no one batted an eyelid. They didn't get the reference and that would apply to his shirt as well.
A super interesting series of videos and I think handled very professionally. I think he didn’t go in with too many obvious preconceived ideas or if he did he didn’t show them and he explained what he saw not claiming to have seen everything going on as he wasn’t everywhere . Excellent and informative
Love how open and honest you are in your vlog series in North Korea. Always grateful for your travel insights.
There are definitely mics and hidden cameras in your hotel room. Be very careful about what you say.
The Mad Hatter video was a year ago...
That would make rubbing one out in your hotel room an interesting experience 🤔
Yup no doubt, definitely bugged.
Michael smith he can still post his though tf.
Got proof? Or is it just anti-north korea propaganda you have listened to?
5:06 oops she forgot she had to spy on you...
haaa
Man i was looking it more than once and is fk true wtf
Just an american feeling
Un probably had her executed after that mistake
I wish their government and everything they govern the best.
I don’t get why everyone is complaining about the scenery. I think the farms and old Soviet-style buildings are in fact pretty fascinating.
I love how they spend the little money they have to build some stupid bowling alley or something that like 10 tourists will use the entire year
Chairman Meow it’s the South Koreans that build the resorts as a friendship deal
It helps the optics to sell their propaganda, I guess. That somehow isolation from the rest of the modern world and starving your own people is a great idea for how to run a country 🤷♂️
That’s what I’ve been saying it makes no fucking sense. He has the internet so he has to know that just about everyone knows the way he tries to present his country is bullshit. There’s more than enough proof, not just gossip. He puts so much money into this stuff for show yet the whole country is suffering. That man has a crazy ego.
No ur not entirely true there’s only one example of that situation but currently that hotel has been moved to hanoi since it was a floating hotel
Ever get the impression hes watching his words through fear?
More through common sense I think.
They said in NoKor everything in the rooms are recorded by the minders!
He even speaks extremely hushed
The walls have ears.
literally yes
Such a beautiful place. So sad how they’re prisoners in their own country :(
Thanks for doing this Nick your footage is Epic! I am learning things about places I never knew. Please don’t stop making these videos! They are amazing!
I hope to, one day, visit North Korea as a free country. In the same way you would visit any other country and not with a strict tour. But what I hope even more is that they will one day be able to visit any country they like, the same way I can right now. I hope they get the freedom everyone deserves from birth.
We view life differently we already owed our government atleast thousand dollars before were even born. I think the real word freedom only exist to minority.
@I Want Kim Jong-Un To Kill Me Not true. In the US poor people have the same freedoms as rich people, money just helps your ability to take advantage of your freedom. Furthermore, everyone is free to attempt to make money and gain this ability for themselves.
Need the song tracks played in this video
@@TheOneGuy1111 You kidding me right? money = power and fame , and no money = no one wants ur ass.. thats y u see druggies because the abuse of people... USA needs to clean up their act before they will collapse like Romans. poor people never had the freedom like rich people if they do why we do not see everyone working in high positions and have good houses at-lease in NK the government gives u stuff cX
@@mtgfatalpush7640 poor ≠ druggie. That mindset is the reason people stay poor. Be happy you live in a country that allows you to build social status rather than complain and victimize yourself because someone’s doing better than you.
I'm from Romania and it's triggering for me because I remember before 1989 it was almost the same situation here, people from here were restricted to have access to what tourists and foreigners had. I was a kid then and had friends who left the country and I later saw what it meant to be raised in a democracy, how it could shape someones mentality and personsonality differently. We didn't have that chance back then and now seeing this I can just hope that this crazy dictatorship will end soon and people from North Korea will be free (though full freedom is another story, but still).
AMEN!!!!
doamne, da!!! seamana unele lucruri ..neobisnuit de mult.
@@muiefiulee Why??
@My Name Is Daniel Yeah.
i was a kid in yugoslavia and i remember similar situations. all the nice places were only accesible to people connected to the party and foreigners.

Got proof? Or is it just anti-north korea propaganda you have listened to?
The hotel reminds me of a hotel I stayed at in a small town in mainland China. Luxurious in an old-school sort of way, and not very many guests. Great video! 👍
knowing how messed up and dangerous it is to go there, I feel nervous just watching this
I agree, Jeff.
That place seems so cold and creepy. It's all so fake. Too bad that country is ruled by such a controlling regime. The countryside is beautiful for real.
It looks dead the feeling of the place is nothingness. Even that animal looked sad. I would never go there for any reason. What if they made up a reason to keep you held. Too risky

@@beach1340 No shitttt
For all its downsides, North Korea is actually pretty beautiful in some places. Thanks for sharing a part of the country which most people don't hear about.
They send nearly every foreigner on these “trips” while most of NK’s citizens live in poverty and aren’t properly fed. That’s why most flee to South Korea and never return. While I agree that it’s beautiful it’s mostly an Orwellian show put on by the guides and the NK government to make sure that the world sees a constant good image of their country.

Fascinating. Thank you for doing this.
I'm a South Korean and this video gave me such an interesting experience. From when I was a kid, I was often taught that North Koreans lead a different lifestyle from that of many South Koreans. I only knew about this country from little bits of what I heard from the older generation and prob news reports even thought North Korea is right next to us. You gave me more insight into understanding the North Korean society which would not have been possible otherwise in my country (and I assume most of the other countries in the world) Thanks for an interesting video 🙋♀️
Excellent Truman Show reference at the end. “Good afternoon, good evening and goodnight”
Whoa 😯
I loved that movie 🙃
Glad to see someone picking up on the sarcasm
Love watching your videos... I find them all so interesting 👌😊
It is such an odd beauty and being alone in such a place is so interesting, thank you.
Another amazing place, beautiful environment, ruined by a dictatorship, it really is sad what politics has done to the world.
Agree
Unfortunately without a form of politics the world would be chaos. Better to have countries and leaders than none at all.
Politics means your life expectancy is 85 and not 45 like 2000 years ago.

Dude, it's like you were living in a ghost town, and there was only person at the reception. were you the only person at the entire hotel?
Creepiest Grand Hotel ever, A running Hotel with Pretty much no one in. LOL THIS CAN BE TURNED INTO A HORROR STORY
TheKing that's how command economies work. In cuba there are empty restraunts with employees on a govt payroll sitting doing nothing
lol, they should start letting hollywood make movies in them. would make a ton of $$
The whole country can be turned into a horror story and I'm sure it is for the residents.
TheKing , like in “The Shining “
Beach looks so sad :( so isolated
Love all your videos. What they make me realize is that there are just much bigger problems in the world than the ones the Western World focuses on.
thankyou for showing their art from an artist that was beautiful
It's so eerie how everything is silent in the hotel. It screams "supposedly a crowded place" but it's ghost empty.
The scenery is beautiful but I can see how drained and uncomfortable you seem. It's so sad to see how extremely controlled this country is 😔😔😰.
I was in the same mountain range (Kumgang) back in 2005 when it was possible to cross the DMZ by land from South Korea.
The crossing was already an experience on its own.
We were parked with the South Korean tourists in a camp of prefabricated buildings surrounded by military fences and camps.
There was a local village next to our camp that look straight out of mad max with command and conquer-like propaganda towers screaming slogans all day.
We would travel by bus for pre-planned and mandatory tours each day with total interdiction to take any pictures while in the bus. Needless to say the villages we passed were utterly poor was well.
Guides would freak out if you'd do anything just off.
A funny anecdote was that we asked our guide what the text carved on a boulder was about. He said it was a military song and proceeded to sing it. It went on the tune of "O Christmas Tree"...
He was very surprised we knew that air :)
The nature was very beautiful but the 3 days we spent there are by far the weirdest of my entire life for many reasons and anecdotes.
I have since traveled to other weird countries (like Turkmenistan) but none compared to the spine chilling eerie feeling of North Korea.
Awesome editing man!
I'm actually addicted to these North Korea videos, amazing job

I agree there is better landscape here in Pennsylvania imo.
??? everything was so beautiful it was almost suspicious
C.H i think this guy in the video kind of agreed as well but he only said they were good because his standards were already extremely low, or maybe he needed something to talk about in the video, or even incase any organizations or even the NK government found the video and saw it as offensive or disrespectful.

Going to North Korea stopped being cool a long time ago.
Indigo Traveller they're putting on a front this is all a mask they wear for visitors.....
Are there police cars driving around and patrolling like every city or country should have (mostly in Pyongyang)? I guess not, right... just police woman who control the traffic?

Dunno if I’d bother going there u know after that ottawobe guy did u see the cctv they had of him couldn’t even tell if was him from that ,I’d worry that could happen to myself that’s why wouldn’t bother , there’s million other places safer places to visit and u ain’t getting the real North Korea u getting shown what they want u to see , what are u not seeing 😱

Then he'd probably see the DPRK flag and be like "Can I go back to sea now?"
this is unimaginably upsetting. such beautiful nature and such lovely people that don't get to live freely and explore the beauty of even their own country. the more i look at north korea's situation the more devastated i feel. these people really deserve so so much more. i cant believe they have to live brainwashed under such an oppressive regime and i hope so much that they are freed within my lifetime. how lucky i am to have such easy access to information and the outside world
or maybe we are brainwadhed by western media, who knows what s true.
We wore masks for two years we brainwashed too
@@guccidonbuzzflightyear4440 also possible, we need to keep our minds open
@@guccidonbuzzflightyear4440 Lol. Choosing to wear a mask to protect others before we had vaccines that made COVID less deadly is nowhere near the oppression North Koreans live under. What a stupid comment.
@@guccidonbuzzflightyear4440 Not the same tho
Honestly, the view of the waterfall at the mountain is breathtaking.. ⛰️👍🏻
I was born in Pyongyang 73 years ago, and have never been back since leaving as an 18 month old baby with my parents at the outbreak of the Korean War.
I dream of going back, thanks for this video.
You dream of going back? As a visitor or to live there?
I can understand one, not the other.
@@HomoLegalMedic Certainly not to live, one of the most repressive regimes on earth.
But to visit, would be like stepping back to a former life.
@@SergeGolikov You don't look Korean. How were you born in Pyongyang, were your parents born there?
@@georgesanderson918 No they were not, and I bet if you were born there to your parents, you would not look any different 👍
@@SergeGolikov So did your parents immigrate to North Korea? I'm confused how you were born there. Why would anyone want to be in that country especially during that time 70 years ago
I can tell you're very nervous and paranoid.
Well no shit
The Savaga Taxman Well at least some actually acknowledge they exist. Some of the comments here suggest what he see is the real North Korea and people in concentration camps is just Western media making it up.
@@simonjrgensen6761 what are you? A paid propaganda man from North Korea? Got yourself a Nordic username to get people to trust you? To think you're Western? I've seen your comments all over this video, you're being really obvious by the way.
FaeMage LOL. Why would I be from NK when I slate them. If anyone you would think the CZcamsr is hired by NK to portrait the country as nice as possible. Seems like it.
@@simonjrgensen6761 ah my bad. I misread your comments and thought you were defending the North Korean government..lol kind of embarrassed now.
It always unnerves me to see North Korea and how empty and quiet everything is. The beaches the buildings. It’s so beautiful there. My dad came from South Korea in the 60’s he was about 6.
This is amazing you’re an amazing journalist
What is very obvious is there are no North Korean tourists or North Koreans “at leisure”
You are gonna be huge man mark my words. Editing, music, and all the unbiased facts make your videos everything.
That is so kind, thank you, Mat!
I agree with Mat. You are in a league of your own, Indigo Traveller.
Yeah you have to blow up. Your videos and content are phenomenal. Just came across you on your first North Korean vid post. Love it. Keep them coming!
Agreed
Absolutely.
It really is a stunningly beautiful country. I hope one day we can all agree to just open our borders and let people come and go as they please.
Fascinating!
Everything Really Is ALWAYS a Mystery...
Interesting The mountains and specifically the red bridge I saw in another Documentary on North Korea had those same painters and that was 4-5 years ago
That is VERY Truman show like.. I wonder if they try to keep the paint very fresh for the tourists, or the workers are just to give the illusion of the park being semi-closed to make the emptiness less eerie. Either way that is highly bizarre!!
It's a shame North Korea is the way that it is politically, the landscapes are beautiful and would love to see them myself.
Actually,if nk would be like us,all these landscapes would’ve been destroyed by now.......
Kush Patel I disagree. Theres plenty of amazing landscapes in the US, Europe, and many other sovereign nations. I believe many of the places shown here would be persevered even if NK was a democracy.
you know you can right. There are North Korea tours available and it isn't even that expensive.
Darkest Before Dawn Sorry, but if N.Korea were to go what China has then those landscapes wouldn’t exist in their current form, there would be a lot more light pollution and the coast and surrounding sea wouldn’t be as clean.
Darkest Before Dawn
to have the awnser you could compared it with South Korea
It's always so eerie how few people you see at hotels, restaurants, etc in NK
3:34 That was a former Pyongyang Metro “Gisela” train (Formally used on the Berlin U-Bahn), now being used for suburban services to small towns within North Korea.
14:37 serious The Shining vibes...so eerie.
The music makes everything horrible
