    Really cool to see any videos that give a look at comrades in the DPRK literally doing “normal” things. Not the ever present ones of military or other kinds of stuff that only show things that can be made fun of/condemned by US outlets.

    Does anyone know what the scrolling text is saying? Are they like peoples’ new years wishes?

      Those are 弹幕 (scrolling comments). Usually in DPRK related videos it would be filled with liberals and west worshippers crying about the DPRK being poor, hungry and the most depressing place on earth.

      This one has a lot more positive ones and making fun of liberals, some of the fun ones being:

      “They have a ray of hope in their eyes”

      “They have beliefs”

      “a very beautiful nation filled with hope for the future”

      “lol the mentally colonised (referring to liberals) won’t like this”

      “look, they all have smartphones”

      “west worshippers always say they’re poor yet never talk about the real reasons why”

      “weren’t they supposed to be in the stone age?”

        Good to know for future stuff on BiliBili. Also good to hear that the comments are more positive for this one.
