0:00 but what makes it crazy for me is you see all those North Korean old guys clapping like that imagine them having an orgy now that's [Music] crazy all right so South Korean activists they've been sending uh a bunch of like leaflets and like flyers over the Border oh they make big balloons they do lots of stuff and they put flyers yeah oh they'll do like uh they'll make like light up signs so that they can see it on the other side about just things that are uh you know trying to encourage North Koreans to defect and North Korea doesn't like that they appreciate it you think they're pretty pissed about it they've been saying tell them to stop doing this or there's going to be some repercussions me some problems with that what do they

0:52 do they ended up striking back oh sh it was not with pamphlets hopefully with their own pamphlets yeah they should have pamphlets like hey we don't have degeneracy that you guys have that would be good propaganda our population is doing way better said that'd be funny no what they did was they sent over hundreds of balloons that were carrying something in them no way roaches I think it's Bob's it's worse actually maybe it's not worse carrying poop and kimchi poop kimchi and poop snacks snakes oh I was like poop and snacks I don't know what else could be worse than poop they sent over hundreds of balloons carrying human poop poop garbage expired batteries diapers expired batteries is funny

1:43 that's hilarious dude why can't even use them it's just it's just trash they just sent all their trash over that's kind of a tight move hilarious and all their just Dro dropping all over South Korea it's almost like like two uh in state colleges yeah yeah two high schools it's it's homecoming week I thought they Dro like so South Korea started dropping like um like letters and like things like pamphlets and like like stuff from defectors that are like hey this is how my life is here yeah yeah right you know what's crazy what what oh just in South Korea is M they're trying to like save people that are under some sort of Oppression in North Korea's M they're like are poop

2:34 yeah it's really funny but but but then here's the thing like as much as um people are like haha that's so funny and ████ weird whatever it was actually um more serious than that because what they're really saying is that this time it's just trash but look at what we could do so those could have been bombs and it very easily reached the other side oh ████ but it was just ████ but then if they wanted to did they if they wanted to put like way more lethal things in them they weren't able to intercept these yeah what happened to the Korean security with BB guns I don't know man I wonder yeah I wonder if you shoot a balloon out of the sky if that's a Act of War yeah I don't know maybe not if it's in your border remember what happened when the Chinese balloon was here and nobody wanted to do

3:25 anything they couldn't even get it down because everyone was like scared or something yeah I don't know also like does that mean that when South Korea sends their pamphlets via balloon and stuff like that it's just intercepted what do you mean because if they're saying in a sense with North Korea sing their stuff it's like look our stuff got all the way over into your stuff like look what else we could do does that mean when South Korea does send their stuff it's they're just stopping it no they're actually not stopping it either oh so I guess that's also South Korea but but South Korea is not trying to bomb North Korea they don't have a threat of War as much as like North Korea it's true and also North Korea would probably do it far sooner yeah yeah than than South Kore right yeah yeah you know what's uh kind of funny about the whole defecting situation is if you look at the lifespan

4:18 of The Defector over 90% of them go back eventually over 90% yeah most of them go back to North Korea so like there's a honeymoon phase where they get across they work so hard they're in South Korea and there's this whole thing about um they're kind of like a what do you call it like kind of marginalized group right like outcasted yeah remember you saying it's not like they can assimilate easy yeah and a lot of them just miss family like no matter how good their life is materialistically like they rather go back to starvation and be with family that's how important I guess family is like if you don't run with them and it's hard for them to build a life like it's hard for them to get jobs I guess once they know you're North Korean with the accent like you get treated a certain

5:08 way how different does the accent sound I heard that it's way different yeah like not just an accent but like it's like like um like old Korean versus modern Korean yeah oh but I don't know it's like kind of goes back to thinking like is is life better in a place that just because you have more things cuz like you would think oh Korea has more food more South Korea has more like job opportunities technology you have more things right but you're isolated so like people still no matter what will go back to a ████ up situation just to be with family and just to be with things that they're used to do we know do they get punished if they go back yeah cuz that seems strange that

5:59 they I don't know and and when they go back do they have to sneak back or can they go to they have to sneak back yeah they go back through so they did a oh through China China don't if it's not just them that get punished it's like three generations of their that's what we're told though so we don't know that's what you and me Park said and she apparently is a liar yeah apparently she just made all that up she comes from the she comes from like a rich ass family so it might be sick over there that that would also give another reason for like returning as a Defector too right it's like if I defected and they're like they sent words it's like hey we're going to ████ up your family if you don't come back yeah like ████ I'll be right there South Korea sucks anyway cuz some of them um some of those defectors are plants from their secret service they're like fake

6:50 defectors yeah to to give us misation this why they keep going back maybe they go back because it's like their job's done yeah right hey what' you see up there but they got to sneak through China still oh there I think it's Asian boss or one of those like YouTube channels but they have the amount of Def I thought it would just be like a handful there's a whole freaking Channel just for multiple defectors and their stories and then like they come from different classes different um like walks of life like people from the military close to the government from the central like Farmers just like different levels and it's pretty ████ fascinating but I don't know if I'm I can ever go out there cuz of the US Passport but if you have another passport that's like Malaysian or something you want to go to

7:40 North Korea yeah I'm fascinated dude I want to check it out even if it's just a tourist ████ are there tours to you can go through China as an American or no if you're American you just can't go there are there is a a doc some with you Australians and Americans got approval to drive through on motorcycles I think it's on Vice or whatever but the process is you have to get your visa in China and then from China you go through North Korea D I'm also scared at the same time but you can't be by yourself you have to be like escorted always escorted yeah yeah and there are Americans that go but it's like I made stupid YouTube videos about North Korea so like they might be watching that this guy was in US mil military I don't know like they're going to probably check

8:30 that one white kid that I know I saw yeah he he uh died the one that you know stole the poster the guy that took the propaganda yeah he's American he went there on a trip so there's way fued him up too didn't they they killed him yeah well no they ported him they made him like brain dead didn't they or something am I thinking of the right guy no that's the one did he like end up like brain damaged he came back as a vegetable cuz he was sick in jail yeah they like did something to him so he's like he can't talk and ████ so you guys still want to go I'm down maybe go to China and then I just have binoculars like oh looks pretty F we went to the demilitarized zone which is the border and North Korea made all these tunnels parallel yeah that one they made all these tunnels to reach soul and when South Korean military found it they um they they made a theme

9:20 park out of the tunnels what well not it's like a it's a visitor uh like a what do you call it like like attraction tourist attraction yeah it's a tourist attraction like you could and he was like it's an active war zone just a month ago a lady they told her don't ████ poke your head out and then she poked her head over the fence and got shot yeah I know right so stupid was she American trip have a great time that's that's the lady that gets out during the Safari yeah oh yeah to yell we got North Korean liquor and all that too because um On the Border there's a tour shop oh and they smuggled North Korean products into to South Korea that just sounds like sick branding it's just called North Korean liquor it's just North Korean like yeah but it says like made in Pyongyang North Korea yeah you could

10:10 buy and it's it's straight up at a tour shop did you see that like North Korea was saying that they are intending to medal in the upcoming US election they like announced it oh ████ what side are they going to be on you think Trump they want Trump they want Trump to become president interesting cuz they like the color red and like his branding they like his merch which almost sounds like maybe that's hurting him if you say that yeah F who knows yeah but then apparently this balloon thing was a flex it was a demonstration of like what they can do which I don't know if South Korea was truly threatened by that but in the middle of people calling it like a weak thing the government was like no it's not it's actually like a very bad gesture there's this um as the activist started

11:00 American Defector that went to North Korea during the Korean War he ran that way right and then um they used him as like an actor in all of their propaganda films of how North Korea is better because look like even Americans want to defect to North Korea so this guy had a great life there um there's a documentary on him too like he he has like all silver teeth just from dental work like it's all silver in the front looks like a southern rapper and he has a Korean wife but his kids I think um no no I think they he has a Russian wife something like that but there's these white kids there that are full North Korean like culturally but it's kind of like his descendants with Russians and all that

11:50 and then they're like a government um white people that are used in their films wow for so they're mascots basically basically yeah to play the role of Americans to play and then they just live like under government subsidies they live good you know but I was like that is so fascinating like how so he he made the right call he lives good yeah he just doesn't have to do ████ and he gets to be a movie star wow that's kind of fresh it's in North Korea though yeah what if it's lit over there they don't have AR light but we don't know how what if it's secretly sick what if it's like some wakanda ████ you know what I mean like they just this thing like let's just make the world think that we're like whack yo Dennis Ramen when he went there he said that he's never party like the way they party in North Korea so think about that and

12:41 that's Dennis robman Dennis robman can you imagine the craziest Hollywood parties everything I'll go to one I'm down for one yeah but then how do they achieve any form of diversity though no diversity then that's not partying like you've never partied that's you just party with hell Koreans no I'm thinking about the the the the out can you imagine like yeah the amount of drugs alcohol is the craziest but what makes a thing crazy to me is is the diversity of experiences but what makes it crazy for me is you see all those North Korean old guys clapping like that imagine them having an orgy now that's ████ crazy and then a group of them around those guys also clapping I I stand corrected I stand corrected yeah they're just constantly like yeah yeah you're right I love just the North Korean ████ cuz to

13:32 me I don't see them as a communist country I really hope they are a kingdom I really hope things are pretty sick it's dude it's a ████ straight up royal family in a communist outfit the only reason is like I do I would appreciate if that was true that this place is secluded from the ████ of the rest of the world and they're just like faking that ████ sucks so that you don't pry in oh yeah cuz that I really deflector like a BL they're hiding it yeah yeah it's like a selfish wakanda that's why everyone comes back dude but the interior design does look sad it does you know all the building what if that's the exterior interior yeah dude it's a front it's propaganda can't show your hands you know you know when his dad Kim Jong ill wanted ████ he would just kidnap people for it so like I thought you said it was sick over there well that's sick for him

14:24 not for the guy oh true there was a sushi chef they let him go but he came by to do a party how how to do sushi and they're like dude no he came from Japan they hired him for a party and they're like how to they're like this ████ is sick I'm keeping you oh that was it and now he's a movie star and he plays all the Japanese [Music]
