Crazy to think about but my grandmother once in her lifetime had a vacation in North Korea when USSR was still present. She said she and other Soviet tourists weren't allowed to go anywhere without a guide or a soldier, they weren't allowed to film or record anything. The food was pretty decent. The elevator in hotel she stayed at never worked. She asked a Korean worker, who knew Russian well, why elevator was never working. He answered: "We are lacking in electricity, so we turn on the elevator when a check team arrives, and turn it off when a check team leaves". This whole sentence about a single elevator said me everything about North Korea. They put on a facade about "ideal communist country" while they lack in literally everything and their people don't trust anyone cause they're always afraid of being punished.
Under Stalin, yes. But from the 50s onward, the authorities only really cared if you spoke out against the regime, and even then just locked you in a psychiatric hospital. 60s-70s USSR was mostly a slightly nicer version of current day Russia, with better benefits and less sweatsuits.
The deciduous trees in the background are completely bare. Only the conifers are green. This was definitely not recorded in the summer. You can bet it was probably only 45-60 degrees F the day(s) this footage was recorded and you can also bet that water was only as warm as it was from the tap-they wouldn’t have the electricity to keep it heated. The hot tubs had no steam or vapor rising from the surface. Those people were freezing but still had to look happy and grateful or face dire consequences. Additionally, it is quite obvious that the water isn’t chlorinated at all. This park was probably only used for this video and never again.

Omg I came to say the same thing. It’s gotta be the best day in the lives of everyone there. It’s sad. They’re a country of prisoners, occasionally given a treat to help the regime. The pawns played their part.
They are probably the elite party families. Who dont really lack for anything. Like the ones at the "model school kindergarten" in Pyongyang that Russian and Chinese tourists get to see, where they dress up and perform theater in elaborate costumes, do experiential learning about trees and animals in a national history museum type gallery, etc. Then most kids are in the countryside eating onions or seaweed their parents dig up. But honestly as long as not harmed or starving, kids are fine as long as they feel parents care for them and get along with peers/have friendship. A 5yo don't know any better and can be happy with basic needs and good relationships. It's knowing that it only gets worse that's heartbreaking, it's the older kids and adults I feel sorry for.
If this took place during the 90's, then that would have been around the time of that famine that killed hundreds of thousands to millions of North Koreans. The numbers are hard to gather. They kept the data fuzzy.
@Aaryan Shrestha Trump was out thata way awhile ago . He wasn't there to talk peace with Kim , he was there to tell South Korea that there would be no reunification . Corporate America doesn't want to lose their corporate colony.
Out of context, it looks like a pretty cool waterpark, albeit designed by someone who doesn't quite understand how one functions. It has some real liminal space vibes. But then I noticed there are only about four different bathing suits, everyone is wearing one of two different swim caps, and the dystopia set in. If Huxley had a waterpark in Brave New World, this would be it.
That water is also clearly NOT treated with chlorine, the color is completely off. The plebians in North Korea don't even have access to clean drinking water, which why they all have parasites. That water is probably absolutely disgusting.
The fact that everyone is smiling is creepy. No one smiles every second of their happiest experience (not that this is, but you know what I mean). I do smile, then sort of pull back to appreciate the moment in quiet contemplation. The forced smiles is what creeps me tf out. Knowing that the country is going through another famine and they have this stupid crap funded by their drug money government is insane.
I don't doubt that many of them had fun. Most of this is a complete novelty to them and being filmed is probably also very rare. It's not like smartphones were a thing in NK back then (they're very quite rare today).
As always I love how they model video's, parks, music, etc. like their greatest enemy, US. lol And they always use styles from the 80's, which always give off that "Team America Baby" kind of feel. Got to love it !
“The park has decayed and fallen into disrepair since it's initial use as a propaganda tool. As of 2023, none of the attractions are capable of holding water, and all of the filtration machinery has broken down due to a lack of maintenance. At last report the facility is closed with no plans to reopen.” -Wikipedia
The wall paintings are just cute :D Particularly the one behind the badminton court (06:11). I also want a place where I could do bowling, rock climbing, badminton ... all in a unified swimsuit and a towel around my neck! Btw at the gym part (00:45) do you think every attendant gets an enthusiastic onlooker girl to stare at him on the treadmill or do you have to bring your own?
Reminds me of the propaganda films of the Third Reich and how happy the inmates in their concentration camps were.....before they were marched to their death and after the cameras were gone.
OH. MY. GOD. This video fills my heart with the most unspeakably deep despair a human can feel. How many suicides are committed daily in North Korea? I bet they murder your family and friends if you even try to escape such a torturous existence by the attempt. My soul is filled with bitterness knowing that right now, on this same planet I am on, my fellow man is being forcefully subjected to this way of life. I can't type any more, I can't see through my tears.
It was never meant to be open during the season. It was built only for propaganda and nothing else. They had Chinese contractors build it and North Koreans don't know how to maintain it. The few times it was they brought in Chinese.

Marcus A.H. Yes it’s Tuesday again, I’m so happy, unfortunately two of my friends starved to death yesterday. Oh well, at least the bird will cheer me up
Why is everything a propaganda just because it's North Korea? Can't it be just their commercial? People outside North Korea have to realize foreign culture is just gradually being introduced into this country. OF COURSE amusement areas and fast food from Western culture and even cuisine from Asian countries are foreign to them! It's also dehumanizing to treat them that they don't have brains just because they have never experienced most of the current pop culture and current events we have the privilege to use and see. Worse of all, we act as if our own governments don't do propaganda and disinformation on us, with thousands of news and journalists literally lying to us about anything. The current events in Palestine right now is a really glaring example.
this is something only the elite of the elite would be allowed to visit, i bet it's literally empty unless someone orders for a party here. i've heard stories of workers standing in completely abandoned/empty outlets for the elite, maybe seeing one customer each week. i bet you anything they held some sort of raffle and each actor here really is grateful to get to play for a day
2:11 I like how the narrator emphasised “for people” in case we got confused and we thought it was for- oh I don’t know, the elite top 1% of soulless servants to the state
This is the kind of comment that will get some gutter type comments in the future…. I’ll spare y’all a joke or two in this regard. Not my thing to crack jokes like this. Just point out the obvious…
This reminds me of the scene in Triangle of Sadness when the rich lady insisted all the ships staff must enjoy swimming too and makes everyone stop what they're doing and line up to jump off the ship into the water "for fun"
1. So few people. Looks at a sk waterpark video and see how many people. 2. Only a few children. 3. The people are all thin or small. No well built, muscly, or chubby people. 4. The men are all wearing the same trunks. 5. The letters are probably all fake. No foreigner would be caught dead saying that on camera, unless they would cut all ties with their family and relatives and join nk. 6. No restaurants or food places. Not one person eating or drinking, no shops anywere (as far as I can see) Overall very insightful. Thanks for the video. I'm sure the some people in other countries would love this though.
I freaking love the life jackets/floaties. I hope people get to have some fun in a place we westerners know so little about, really. Those beers look awesome. They’re huge!
Well of course! The west is evil with all their horrible capitalist ideals, so they would *never* adopt any western luxuries, pastimes, or products into their society 😳 Everything must be created by the great leader
They already credited Kim Jong Il for wanting to open the park as his legacy, so until Kim reveals to us he invented time travel, we will not know the truth.
@Bob Naikava Funny seeing you leave the exact same comment multiple times here. Dear supreme leader must be proud of you. Maybe if you’re good enough you’ll be allowed to shop at the “privileged store”.
What got me the most was the rock climbing and bowling with no shoes. Along with the "this is a water park for children", with no children playing on it, in fact there were barely any children in the whole video. Then the dives had to hurt because they were more like belly flips over a proper dive. Followed by building all of that in 9 months must have taken some very serious corner cutting to pull off, of very serious worker abuse.
The funniest part for me was also the "this is a water park for CHILDREN" and then you just see pressure washer force jets of water shooting across the entire thing😂 children would drown if they went in there
Love how they only got one costume change. Here is your swimwear. Wear it all day, for all activities even when water or action is not required. Also barely any children, just adult actors. Zero teenagers. How do they not understand how rediculous this looks to all of us? And the foreigners walking through so awkwardly. So silly how their country tours include 'the waterpark' or 'the shopping centre' haha like seriously, it's the Truman show.
@@no_one2197 I take it this is your first time hearing about North Korea? Apparently the park got shut down and now its in disrepair. They're essentially actors putting on a show for the tourists and those watching this thinking it's real. Also think of the ludicrous nature of using a single water park as a selling point for your country. It doesn't add up on top of the already well known fact fact that a majority of its citizens live in poverty. 😅
She would go through a lot of crap if she actually said that. Wikipedia: "Criminal sanctions are sometimes levied against homosexuality or non-conforming gender expression deemed to be, "against the socialist lifestyle." While punishment was rare, it has been reported by The Korea Times that North Korea has executed gay couples under this law."
I have been to many water parks and I have never seen so few kids at the park. Usually they are borderline taking over while half the adults relax and the other half play with the kids or act like big kids.
Lmao not this being North Korea's "pride and joy". I also love how the narrator points out what was for kids and the amount of time they reiterated how happy the people were
Okay but seriously though, can someone please explain to me like what the point is of North Korea and other overly governed countries. Like I don’t understand it. I don’t get why NK is always trying to “appeal” to the rest of the world that they’re “so great” like… we already know you guys are shit and completely behind technologically compared to like 90% of the world. And with all the money they wasted trying to act like their people enjoy their lives they probably could have used that money towards actually making things for the people. Like a real water park or amusement park or something. I don’t understand how a leader such as the Kim’s can totally see how shitty their own leadership is and how many people suffer and die and go “yeah this is fine” like from a moral standpoint I just can’t comprehend it. Can someone explain what they’re trying to accomplish?
It angers me and makes me beyond sad that this day was probably the ONLY day these people will ever experience fun of any sort. This park is all for show, we all know this is.

This is the first time in my life that I’ve ever seen somebody bowling, barefoot. And I would imagine it’s probably not really comfortable to run on a treadmill without shoes on. I think I’ve done it before and I regretted it the next day. It’s so odd that they would not have had issues for them for those activities.
I honestly don't think they know how those things are normally done. They've never seen some of this stuff in person! Sometimes even the officials! Then, other people were saying the propagandists filming this probably just handed out one set of clothes for everyone participating, which they will take back once filming is done. The amount of work put into this is stsggering, and scary...
Bruh, their country is basically a giant abandoned landscape. They are like a colony of ants surrounded by the grass of a giant field and no other things.

@Shar Pee I dunno. I suppose a NK defector might be able to answer that. I'm guessing people can choose to go there, but it's just strictly open during certain time periods?
@@AntimonyxAngel It's me, shar pes on his alternate google account. I came back to this video because, despite it being shitty, really shitty propaganda it's oddly entertaining. I guess the Monsoon water park is only to be used by the 'tomatoes' aka high ranked NK citizens like party officials/military personnel. Or, the park is built to be used for socialist propaganda and abandoned.
This feels so otherworldly and something about seeing them being happy for perhaps the one of the only times in their life is so heartwarming yet disturbing I mean how it’s portrayed here makes it looks like some kind of paradise in a perfect utopian world with its generic look and feel of the parks and attractions as well as the people
These are the families of folks who live in Pyongyang, which is the capital of North Korea. Rest assured they’re a privileged caste and likely are having a good time. Just because it’s a totalitarian state doesn’t mean people aren’t people.

You believe any western propaganda don’t you
They are probably the elite party families. Who dont really lack for anything. Like the ones at the "model school kindergarten" in Pyongyang that Russian and Chinese tourists get to see, where they dress up and perform theater in elaborate costumes, do experiential learning about trees and animals in a national history museum type gallery, etc. Then most kids are in the countryside eating onions or seaweed their parents dig up.
But honestly as long as not harmed or starving, kids are fine as long as they feel parents care for them and get along with peers/have friendship. A 5yo don't know any better and can be happy with basic needs and good relationships. It's knowing that it only gets worse that's heartbreaking, it's the older kids and adults I feel sorry for.
I feel like I'm watching a '90s infomercial for a Walt Disney wannabe water park.
If this took place during the 90's, then that would have been around the time of that famine that killed hundreds of thousands to millions of North Koreans. The numbers are hard to gather. They kept the data fuzzy.
@@okaminess USA/UN bombing of Korea killed close to 3 million Korean civilians and now South Korea is a corporate colony of the USA
@Aaryan Shrestha Trump was out thata way awhile ago . He wasn't there to talk peace with Kim , he was there to tell South Korea that there would be no reunification . Corporate America doesn't want to lose their corporate colony.
ice water South Korea is still better than north korea 😂😂
@Aaryan Shrestha yes, many more prostitutes and military coups over in occupied Korea.
Out of context, it looks like a pretty cool waterpark, albeit designed by someone who doesn't quite understand how one functions. It has some real liminal space vibes. But then I noticed there are only about four different bathing suits, everyone is wearing one of two different swim caps, and the dystopia set in. If Huxley had a waterpark in Brave New World, this would be it.
Spot on.
I thought liminal space backrooms when it shows the empty parts, there is a pool level similar
Rental clothing is very common practice. You could find something similar in south Korea.
They only have certain haircuts they can choose from of course they would only have certain approved bathing suits.
That water is also clearly NOT treated with chlorine, the color is completely off. The plebians in North Korea don't even have access to clean drinking water, which why they all have parasites. That water is probably absolutely disgusting.
The fact that everyone is smiling is creepy. No one smiles every second of their happiest experience (not that this is, but you know what I mean). I do smile, then sort of pull back to appreciate the moment in quiet contemplation.
The forced smiles is what creeps me tf out. Knowing that the country is going through another famine and they have this stupid crap funded by their drug money government is insane.
Especially the ones staring at the guys on the treadmills.
@@aleksandramakari the women are probably actually happy. Asian guy dont smile.
I don't doubt that many of them had fun. Most of this is a complete novelty to them and being filmed is probably also very rare. It's not like smartphones were a thing in NK back then (they're very quite rare today).
I didn't smile that much in Disney World. I also didn't see people constantly smiling.
As always I love how they model video's, parks, music, etc. like their greatest enemy, US. lol And they always use styles from the 80's, which always give off that "Team America Baby" kind of feel. Got to love it !

“The park has decayed and fallen into disrepair since it's initial use as a propaganda tool. As of 2023, none of the attractions are capable of holding water, and all of the filtration machinery has broken down due to a lack of maintenance. At last report the facility is closed with no plans to reopen.”

I bet they murder your family and friends if you even try to escape such a torturous existence by the attempt. My soul is filled with bitterness knowing that right now, on this same planet I am on, my fellow man is being forcefully subjected to this way of life. I can't type any more, I can't see through my tears.
Hey! After viewing this phenomenal video I am changing my vacation plans!
FYI: The park opened in 2013 and has remained closed 90% of the time due to poor maintenance issues and lack of budget to run it.
It was never meant to be open during the season. It was built only for propaganda and nothing else. They had Chinese contractors build it and North Koreans don't know how to maintain it. The few times it was they brought in Chinese.

My personal favorite propaganda video was 1 where it showed a homeless camp during winter and said all Americans eat birds and snow.

Why is everything a propaganda just because it's North Korea? Can't it be just their commercial?
People outside North Korea have to realize foreign culture is just gradually being introduced into this country.
OF COURSE amusement areas and fast food from Western culture and even cuisine from Asian countries are foreign to them!
It's also dehumanizing to treat them that they don't have brains just because they have never experienced most of the current pop culture and current events we have the privilege to use and see.
Worse of all, we act as if our own governments don't do propaganda and disinformation on us, with thousands of news and journalists literally lying to us about anything. The current events in Palestine right now is a really glaring example.
“They had electricity to run the water for almost four hours that day, son; I’ll never forget it”

1. So few people. Looks at a sk waterpark video and see how many people.
2. Only a few children.
3. The people are all thin or small. No well built, muscly, or chubby people.
4. The men are all wearing the same trunks.
5. The letters are probably all fake. No foreigner would be caught dead saying that on camera, unless they would cut all ties with their family and relatives and join nk.
6. No restaurants or food places. Not one person eating or drinking, no shops anywere (as far as I can see)
Overall very insightful. Thanks for the video. I'm sure the some people in other countries would love this though.
I freaking love the life jackets/floaties. I hope people get to have some fun in a place we westerners know so little about, really. Those beers look awesome. They’re huge!
They forgot to mention that water parks are Kim Jong Un's invention.
Well of course! The west is evil with all their horrible capitalist ideals, so they would *never* adopt any western luxuries, pastimes, or products into their society 😳 Everything must be created by the great leader
They already credited Kim Jong Il for wanting to open the park as his legacy, so until Kim reveals to us he invented time travel, we will not know the truth.
The video tours of their science and technology museums showcasing all the great things their dear leaders invented are incredible.

I am surprised that a NK water park isn't adorned with missiles, tanks, bunkers or barbed wire.
What got me the most was the rock climbing and bowling with no shoes. Along with the "this is a water park for children", with no children playing on it, in fact there were barely any children in the whole video. Then the dives had to hurt because they were more like belly flips over a proper dive. Followed by building all of that in 9 months must have taken some very serious corner cutting to pull off, of very serious worker abuse.

Zero teenagers. How do they not understand how rediculous this looks to all of us? And the foreigners walking through so awkwardly. So silly how their country tours include 'the waterpark' or 'the shopping centre' haha like seriously, it's the Truman show.

That was really creepy when they showed the dressing rooms and sauna rooms! It was reminiscent of Nazi war camps!
why do all the North Korean state-propaganda films have a soundtrack that was made in a 1970s employee training video?

Lmao not this being North Korea's "pride and joy". I also love how the narrator points out what was for kids and the amount of time they reiterated how happy the people were
Half the time the kids weren't even there.
And the kid and the end of the introduction looked malnourished.

Okay but seriously though, can someone please explain to me like what the point is of North Korea and other overly governed countries. Like I don’t understand it. I don’t get why NK is always trying to “appeal” to the rest of the world that they’re “so great” like… we already know you guys are shit and completely behind technologically compared to like 90% of the world. And with all the money they wasted trying to act like their people enjoy their lives they probably could have used that money towards actually making things for the people. Like a real water park or amusement park or something. I don’t understand how a leader such as the Kim’s can totally see how shitty their own leadership is and how many people suffer and die and go “yeah this is fine” like from a moral standpoint I just can’t comprehend it. Can someone explain what they’re trying to accomplish?
