7 CRAZY LAWS IN NORTH KOREA 

Does anyone else have a fascination with North Korea? I would go back if they would let me (Americans) in!!

Imagine you're born in prison because your uncle used the toaster and plugged in an appliance at the wrong time of day, or misused a toothbrush

Imagine being so insecure that you have to force people to pretend to worship you on pain of imprisonment or death.

With all those laws, it must be tough to live there.

Also, watching South Korean drama or listening to K-pop may take your life. Since both Koreas have basically the same language, NK applies tighter regulation on SK pop culture.

I feel sorry for the people in NK who suffer under this insane dictator and his supporters. These laws are just crazy.

I hope North Korea becomes a free society that is allowed to live normal lives within my lifetime.

Imagine being in jail for just laughing/smiling by someone giggling you😬🤷🏻‍♂️....

Thanks for this video.. very informative and educating

These rules are just absolutely ridiculous. I feel so sorry for these people, I am grateful to live in America 🇺🇸 because I don’t like people controlling my life

Drew talking about crazy laws in North Korea with a "Just Go" t-shirt on

When I was in the compulsory millitary service of Norway, we got zero option of hairstyle. Our hair was cut to a prescribed size, we got some extra parading drill, were put on buses, sent to the capital to stand as guards on the last hill to the royal castle with our guns as the royals of Europe passed by in their limousines, including queen Elizabeth when the king celebrated his 75th birtday. No choice whatsoever. Not the only country that is like that probably..

I can’t imagine living on my own their and someone just coming in and taking me away all because one of my relatives who I wasn’t even with in person broke a law

Sounds like a cozy place for my summer vacation

Here's a crazy story that came out of North Korea that I just learned about recently. A group of college students were expelled and forced to work in a coal mine because they were in possession of South Korean movies and TV shows. After listening to them the authorities slaughty students were speaking with a different accent by magic. Therefore they were expelled and forced to work in a coal mine. At least they weren't sentenced to the gulag

amazing video

Love your videos

Great video More Travels w/ Drew Binsky :]

I'm going to go the DPRK this year before I move to the US - it's one of my goals, like yours, where I want to visit every country in the world. However, even though I have the trip planned, and I'm doing all the necessary paperwork, I cannot help myself but to still be terrified to go there. For the first time ever, I'm going alone to a different country, since my girlfriend is American, and my friends don't want to go through the trouble of obtaining the necessary paperwork to enter the hermit country. I'll be there for a week, staying in Pyongyang and go to other provinces. I'm excited, but scared. How did you feel before you went?

Teachers:Always have a smile on your face People at north korea on that holiday:

I LOVE UR VIDEOS SO MUCH!!

wow, this is a very interesting video like all you’ve made me realise how depressing the country is and how fascinating north korea

Happy New Year,Drew🙋‍♂️ The only Subscriber from Pyongyang,North Korea 🇰🇵

Drew, when are you going to explore your home country USA, for us.

wow that's crazy

Answers cleverness 😊❤

Amazing, amazingly sad. I don’t have to worry about being arrested in NK, I don’t plan on ever getting that close. I worked with a lady whose husband had to go to China on business and she went with him. The electricity in their hotel just shut off at night and they were told where they could look and what they could take pictures of. She also said she knew they were being watched all the time. Those poor people, yet this is all they know.

I didn’t know the fact about the cell service , only 3 million users?! That’s so crazy. Bet it was interesting place to visit

thank you Drew hope your reading this!

I have a few questions. If people are picked to live in Pyongyang where do the rest of the North Koreans live? Is there anything to do in Pyongyang other than running in the marathon? Is there anything to do in North Korea in general for tourism?

all I have to do is just follow the law even if you don't like it and you should be fine

crazy!

Cool

Bro..Drew Binsky .. Please do come visit to Myanmar

"Can you imagine a world without fair news?" Uhhhhh.... Obviously it doesn't compare to NK, but Drew's been traveling around the world so much that he must have forgot what US news is like LOL

1:04 I’ve been to North Korea back in 2014 and I was allowed to make a phone call home (i’m Russian) using a special telephone in the hotel

Love you drew you are the best youtouber

3:09 and random inspectors can come even at night to check if there is dust on it

😮 I subscribed because this video 😮 such insane way of life . My heart goes out to the NK people. 😢

its like being prisoner in your own land. these poor people dont deserve this crap :(

I’ve been learning a ton about this Hermit Kingdom. I’m never gonna visit but it’s astonishing how people can live there, I hope they will be free from the evil some day.

The very strict punishments were useful as if we keep like that, no one will break the rules. But i hate the rules in North korea.

North Korea becoming a happiness, freedom and prosperous country is definitely as impossible as I having a girlfriend in my life

Thank God that I'm blessed with my country.. though our government system wasn't change the rampant corruption still exist but the favor that we can move freely, act justicely and speaks with freedom makes us realized that were blessed....

I have qualms about that "surveillance footage" of Warmbier. The person on the footage doesn't even remotely resemble Warmbier. I think he just might've been loud and said something that the minders didn't like and staged the whole thing. Wouldn't put it past the regime to do that.

If a tourist visits from the US, does the government set tourists up by falsely accusing them of doing something against the law even if they are with a government sponsored tourist guide? It must be nerve wracking when ur at the foreign airport waiting for ur depature and they don't let u board. Instead pull u aside and detain u.

💯💯💯

strangely, i think about this country a lot too

One of the most bizarre places on this, or any other planet.

But, per your NYC Subway video they have a great subway system. DAA

In that country, I would get a punishment after few hours since I don't follow restrictions

I wondered why I’ve never seen a North Korea phone number on google

OUCH. I'd be in so much trouble with my hard head and natural aquarian drive to be different.

Wow. Putting all good eggs in one basket. All Elites in one place. Good X

“Fair news” lmfao 🤣

Oh hell no!!!

Imagine being in jail for using the bathroom

What are your sources?

Pygongyan is like a vip place

North Korea is the epidemy of "Oop, messed up. Gotta start over. Wait nvm, we gon keep this weird sh"

Is the train in 3:10 a 0 series Shinkansen from Japan?? 😳😦😨

Other countries are too lenient.

I want to go there what will I do

What if someone tickle you att a certain holiday😱😰😨

If you over cook fish straight to jail...if you under cook chicken straight to jail......

Can you imagine the world without fair news or cable? As an American, yes. Yes I can imagine

I had a friend in north korea. He said it was hell and he couldn’t take it anymore.

So what happened so if you find money on the street and keep it

That video of Kim Jong un with the gun is scary

Yet you have people on Twitter say America is the worst country in the world . I am so happy I was never born in North Korea.

China are in very similar situation in the 60s or 70s, and people do not have enough food to eat.

I would honestly love to see NK but I’m not cutting off my dreadlocks. Everything else I think I could manage to go without for a few days.

The first comment is quite strange... In my hotel in Pyongyang I had a BBC channel on air in my room, featuring a missile test launched by North Korea. This news was shared during our first dinner on May 18, 2013 among our group. For Westerners there are hardly any restrictions, as long as you do not mingle with locals.

Honestly i like the part of protecting culture and be somehow closed to thier particular identity but their policy went tooo far

how about hiv?

YOU KNOW THAT ADAGE, "IT'S TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE.."?!?! WELL THIS JUST SEEMS, "TOO BAAAAD TO BE TRUE..." Laugh Out Loud (*LOL!*).

“Fair news” lol

Why isn't the world doing anything about dictator in North Korea ?

When Auto was not in trouble or when he was

Yooo

The labor camps out away from the city part of North Korea... it sounds like the most horrible thing I've ever heard in my life. Forced abortions and burying children alive... only to name a few. It goes on every single day and makes me want to campaign to free North Korea.

I got a bright idea don’t go to North Korea. I will go to almost any country in the world except this one.

They said he stole the poster.

Actually I think it is too simplistic to present it like this. How did North-Korea get into this militaristic type of government ? I think you actually build up the tension between countries east and west. A better approach is to try to remove the tension between NKorea and the rest of the world. Probably not easy, but some have tried with some success. The current tension has a long historic backdrop which I'm convinced you know quite a bit about. Japanese militarism vs. China and Korea->World War II->American blocade->Pearl Harbor->American bombings (of Tokyo)->Fight over Okinawa->Hiroshima/Nagasaki->Chinese Revolution-Korean war/ Back and forth between North and South->38° demarcation line cease fire->Fear of American use of nuclear weapons against North Korea->Continuous military and ideological tension->East and west nuclear arms race->Cold war-> Tension between east and west millitary and ideological blocks.. North-Korea is just one player in this whole picture, but because their very placement between Soviet-union (Russia)/ China and the westernized South-Korea, Japan and Taiwan and the war history, they have great difficulty in escaping from that history. They were very hard hit by the Korean war, don't forget it. Nuclear use seems always a real option. What you describe is all a result of this. How to get out of the tension is the question, please put forwards some suggestions to do that. The powerty of the country is a cause and big issue, is tough western sanctions then a good tactic ? The obvious very real foreign threath to the regime is another factor to explain its actions. Again how to lower the tension is central.

I can confidently say I would never step foot in that fu@#in' place

Im to scared to go there

What if a person was caught doing graffiti on one of the dictator statues or one of the pictures!😂😂😅

I am definitely not coming to North Korea after I heard those no no like bro why do they have those strict rules

Sick, sad world.

Fair news n cable...oooof

❤

There are countries, places or people need to be left alone so you can live longer & peacefully

*The Hermit Kingdom*

Imagine doing something in your whole entire family and generations to come are forced to be in prison for this and tortured for the rest of their lives will that happen to one young man who fled North Korea's prison without second hesitation and he talks about when he was in the prison how he was tortured burned just unbelievable things no food he ate worms and mice for food it was just disgusting and horrible watched his mother be executed for trying to escape with his brother

For some reason, I have been watching these North Korean videos on RU-vid it's a tragedy these people go through I pray 🙏one day these people see freedom. I feel some of their pain I have been homeless for almost a year now difficult even in the United States. At least I can enjoy some RU-vid from McDonald's free Wi-Fi.

My God….

I would never goto North Korea my curiosity would definitely get me killed or captured

The history of Korea is messed up too. It’s like, it did better than the South ONLY in the 60’s and early 70’s then fell off as soon as Communism started toppling near the Bloc. Famine, drought, famine, drought, and you guessed it, another flood followed by famine. It’s like the How To guide of the polar opposite thing you do to run a country.

Do you mean 3 channels?
