'The Privileged' Store in North Korea - Part 2

www.theguardian.com/world/2015...
================================================
Please watch this video until the end.
Ok, so this is my 47th video that I uploaded, many people asked me..
"How could you upload youtube video in NK?".
"He uploads the video after he back to Indonesia, because he didn't dare if he upload directly from NK".
Nope..that is not entirely True..
The answer is..
I already back to Indonesia, and currently I live in Indonesia..
My first 23 videos was uploaded when I was in North Korea.
The most different thing that when I uploaded video in NK, for a 15 minute video needed two days to upload, because the internet there was unstable due to electricity on off several times in a day..I can’t subscribe for cellular internet mobile because its way too expensive and..not reliable too...
but..when in Indonesia, I can choose which provider for internet and to upload a 15 minute video need only few minutes...
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OK..
back to this video..
I was going to a store which was located inside the Diplomatic Compound in Munsu District, behind Vietnam Embassy (you can check it out in Google Maps)
Sure..because these videos is about my daily life in NK...so I only posted about my routines things that I am doing in NK).
This store named Pyongyang Shop, which only several people who can access inside, only Foreigners and local Korean people who can get permission to be inside Diplomatic Compound (usually Korean people who works for foreign Organisations and embassies).
Btw.. sorry for bad English and Korean..
Any viewers who understand Korean language might be laughing hearing me trying to make conversations with the locals..please pardon me.

For those who are wondering why the computer/register didn't turn off when the electricity went out, since power outages or brownouts are common in these countries, desktops and monitors are always connected to a UPS (Uninterrupted Power Supply), which is like a backup battery. When I lived in Burma with frequent power outages, I bought one specifically to power my 4G router for internet and another one to power my fan. (Don't ever run a fan with a UPS. You'll burn out the fan's motor and wear out the UPS quickly. At least I wasn't hot during those long outages.)

I think that a big part of viewers can't understand what's special about this store, because you’ve been going to exactly the same stores near your home every day for decades. This kind of shops ONLY for foreigns/diplomats/locals with currency (US dollars/euro/CNY). Get some dollars for locals is difficult, it's real only on the black market. The assortment in state shops for locals looks completely different, much worse. In USSR we had the same kind of shops, it called "Beryozka", you can read in wiki about this. Nowadays in DPRK you can have a private little grocery store, but again it's difficult, need to get a food in bulk quantities (that I don't understand how, may be corrupt way through China, I don't hear about NKs in Russia), arrange with some government organization to register the premises with it and sometimes to pay a bribes.

Real Indonesia is Huge as Russia and even much richer, Coffee is native to Indonesia not brought by Dutch liars including lies in history of Indonesia even at formal school! Our oil and gas only are much more than whole Middle East." Stop calling real rich natural resources as third world. Real 3rd world is that your natural resources are so poor and colonizing others for centuries long sabotaging the history, stealing, killing, attacking, etc. Real Rich will never do way Middle East, Europe, USA, etc has been doing. Because West and The Middle East, North Africa are the real third world. So sorry Egypt isn't the oldest, even Egypt is very poor, very dry, far off the center of the Equator line. Most highest humidity on Earth: Indonesia, meaning many much older artifacts has decayed much faster than just few thousands years Egypt. And Judaism/Christianity/Islam are just the same dumb. Even most of people know nothing about much older ancient modern civilization here in Indonesia before mega eruption of Toba supervolcano of Sumatra 75,000 years ago. Including 25,000 years old Gunung Padang pyramid in Indonesia. #israel #palestine #lebanon #iran #iraq #ukraine #russia #kashmir #egypt #yemen

The most unsettling thing about this video is the way you balanced stuff in your cart.

Yes what is he doing 😂

[@emilychb6621]

Would have been easier to just stack 3 crates, instead of balance bags on top of the water bottles.

[@asrisekarmira101]

Agree wkwkkwkwk I almost rolled my eye and thought, "omggg that is working"

[@rondobson1828]

I thought so too. He could've tucked that stuff down on the side of the water jugs. Balancing on top wasn't necessary.

[@jhnsabiila935]

So in order to shop there you must pay with euro or dollar?

[@lemagreengreen]

Yes. NK is OK with strong foreign reserve currency, Euro is preferred I think but US Dollar good too. Same with a lot of countries though, foreigners want their money to have actual value and the state is OK with holding the currency too since it's stable and globally tradeable.

[@ReptilianTeaDrinker]

The music makes it even more tense. lol I like how when the power went off, so did the music. Then it resumed once the power came back on.

[@RipOJ32]

Dude leaves his shopping cart in the middle of the aisle then walks to everything and walks back. Then trys to stack a bunch of stuff on a circle object while leaving a bunch of empty space in the cart. You could've re arranged your bottles. But yea learn how to use a cart.

[@eliminatorjr]

[@xoce6210]

Dude, cart space wouldn't be the biggest priority when shopping in north korea.

[@oz5wob3]

I have never been to NK but I found myself asking why none of the products in this store use NK writing?

[@srcuso]

because most of thios stuff is illegaly imported, because of western sanctions. When a company does not know if or what product gets exported to NK, it will not write anything in Korean.

[@LuffyPortal]

Because they are illegally imported, the companies do not send their product there, NK acquires the product through a middle man.

[@oz5wob3]

@@LuffyPortal that's interesting.

Those cigarettes are black market intended for the UK, that's exactly how the health warnings and packaging used to look in 2016. We moved over to plain packaging in 2017 but there was a grace period where the old stock in your supply chains could still be sold, once you reached the deadline it had to be returned. Notice the lack of holographic UK DUTY PAID tax stamp. Naughty.

just.. put... the food.. in the damned cart. Anyone else getting annoyed at that? he's got plenty of room around the water jugs, but he stacks the rice up on the side and carries the other half of the bags in his hands.

[@jacoblong3541]

What’s with the water jugs? Is the tap water not safe

[@gourlishvideos]

The packaging of some of these items suggests that they were possibly smuggled in from Europe, most likely via China. Given that North Korea's borders have been completely closed since early 2020, I suspect that this store currently looks a lot emptier.

[@TheAmericanCatholic]

@@TheAmericanCatholic no sorry I was wrong just checked, he is from Indonesia that is my mistake, thought I deleted my comments

[@nataschka_tscherepaschka]

Not smuggled. China just got it from all European countries and export them further to North Korea, i think Russia does the same. Also Russia got sanctions now they get everything of Kazakhstan now, it’s not smuggled and not a secret, it is completely legal for them to do so. But some Chinese people or North Korean people who work on the chinese border smuggle videos/movies/music from South Korea or from the West, if you get caught you can get publicly executed. And public HAS to watch it (from the age of 12 I think), sadly…

1. Ask customer what currency they want to use. 2. Tell customer we don't accept that currency today. 3. Tell customer we can swap the currency they have for the currency we want. 4. Provide a bad exchange rate to gain a profit. 5. Take back the currency you just gave them for the groceries. 6. Wish them a lovely day and ask them to come back soon.
