This is one of the many propaganda screen found around Pyongyang, generally showing videos of people performing patriotic songs or national television. Since it was playing funny music, I filmed it. If you look closely to the right of the screen, you can spot the one and only ad found in North Korea. The government got into a partnership with an Italian company to have a car assembled in the country, but the company made it a requirement that it be able to advertise its products, hence the poor lonely billboard seen there.
Driving out of Kaesong, North Korea
Another “driving” video with the hopes that can capture at least a bit what it feels like to be in North Korea. Filmed during my recent trip in the country.

Riding the Pyongyang metro
Filmed during my recent trip to North Korea. If anyone wonders, the metro cars were originally from east Berlin and the whole metro system is very deep, on average more than 100 meters.

Driving around in Pyongyang, North Korea
Filmed while driving around in Pygongyang, North Korea. I apologize for the shakiness of the image. It may not look like it but the roads were extremely bumpy and irregular.
