Some of you might have already seen this video. For those who have not, have a go, it gives a different perspective on the current conflict and on the everyday lives of North Koreans. Some aspects of their lives remind me of the novel 1984.

Watch in HD.

 
I saw one that shows the real Korea . Smuggled video basically . It's freaking insane , makes what's depicted in this video seem like a place I would like to live in

Too bad you overlooked the content of the documentary just because of his voice and your prejudice on "carrés rouges".

I had apprehensions too when I saw him, but I'm glad I did not put his look and his work in the same basket....

I feel like this video does a good job a showing both sides of the medal. There is always two sides to a story. He couldn't show as much from the people's way of life as he would've liked because of constraints. But the few interractions we see between him and the guides, or employees, carry a powerful message about life in the DPRK.

Thing is, a lot of the very shitty footage of dead people on the streets dates from 15-20 years ago during the big famine. Things might be a tad better now. This kind of shit as happened in other countries too. You can Google Holodomor, another Soviet-esque catastrophe.
 
^^^ I didn't see footage of dead people but basic NK life . There was mention of canibalism though
 
Good documentary, but narrator could've skipped the shots of him speaking... or he could just get himself a normal haircut...
