I also think you'll find that it's propaganda for the masses and that the regimes and elites don't care. They will enjoy the trappings of American culture and lifestyle behind closed doors in luxurious surroundings, and the reason North Korea develops certain weapons systems is because they know how hopeless their conventional military is.

You don't see any homeless people in North Korea. Yet there are millions in the US, many of them hopeless drug addicts. The men stealing and the women selling their bodies to buy their poison. In America, it's survival of the fittest. If you're one of those without, nobody gives a damn about you. Again, in the supposedly richest country in the world, there are tens of millions who have no healthcare. About the same as the population of the two Koreas combined.

As a South Korean, I feel sad when I realize that North Koreans are living difficult lives. When I happen to see North Korean athletes in sports events like the Olympics, I find myself cheering for them without even thinking. It seems like we are an inseparable Korean ethnicity. However, what’s even more unfortunate is that if North Korea collapses, there’s a high chance that the land will not belong to South Korea, but rather to Russia, China, or the United States. Russia, China, and the U.S. are powerful countries, and China and Russia are geographically close. But if reunification happens, I would love to take a train trip from North Korea to Russia... Right now, Russia is also in a war with Ukraine.😂 What does national power even mean...

They have no skills to live and learn on their own, their whole lives are being dictated and arranged, there's no individuality, only the collective. When a generationally cultivated hive mind gets cut loose, those adapted to it feel lost, disoriented and overwhelmed. It's gonna take just as many generations to create a free thinking society that upholds the values of the western world. It's not an easy process at all.

The older people often form their own groups to do similar things in parks, etc. because I guess they're used to doing it since young. The old people in the parks also like to sing and play a lot of propaganda songs from the Cultural Revolution era, when they were youths. Granted, the music is very nice, and I know they genuinely like singing those songs. Lived there until I was 6, and visited relatives there sometimes.

It boggles my mind that this type of place exists. It's crazy that the rest of the world can't band together to help free these people.

After so many decades of having any Defiance like for example, not grabbing a picture of the Kim's and instead grabbing your kids when your home is in fire is met with being sent with your kids to thier "camps" that are right up there with Hitlers camps with extra thrown in, you sometimes stop being able to try doing anything but stay alive. They are so brainwashed they think thier very thoughts will be read. Some are able to escape, but if they are found in China or Russia they are either killed or taken back and punished. Also anything 1 person does wrong will cause your child and grandchild to also be punished! All that is just the basics.

A brilliant, profound and informative programme. No overpowering music, no jumping from one thing to another with the camera work. Thank you for this incredibly professional piece of work.

I agree but thing is it's impossible to carry out creative camera work. The tourists are very closely monitored and in some other documentaries as well we see that the tourists are asked to show the photos and videos taken . For example the photos should cover the entire status of the founder any other ones with landscape format and incomplete statue in photo should be deleted.
