dangermousieSometimes, the internet is marvelous.
Being bored, and in a weird frame of mind (same as every day), I went looking on youtube for 'entertainment' produced by North Korea. And what do yoe know, it's there.
Behind the cut are North Korean news (one poster referred to it as filmed radio, as the announcers literally stand in front of a blank wall, no imagws, photos, videos or movement). There is a compilation of North Korean movie clips (all the movies seem to be about military personnel gloriously keeling over for country), a scene from some movie about a marathon runner who finds new strength by gazing at King Jong Il's portrait (which shines with a special light), and, my favorite of all, some North Korean animation, the uploader of which put up a fake 'translation' for what they are saying which made me ROFL.
All Praise Kim Jong-Il and meditate how glorious it is to have your father die in a construction accident because work-safety and medicine are so poor! Also, wow, they have food.
Collection of movie clips. They are like Soviet films on speed.
News. Why don't they save on money and just broadcast on radio?
My favorite. NK cartoon with parody translation:
Btw, I've read elsewhere that in between shoots they send the movie personnel into the fields. And don't put names of anyone anywhere because there should be only one star in the country: Dear Leader.
