Those kids playing guitar and swaying in unison with their terrified grins are just uncanny

if they don't grin then their entire family will be sent to the firing squad

almost as unsettling as american baby pageants.

It is a "worker's paradise" where everyone is happy. Always happy. Smile.  Smile!  24/7 you must smile. Smile or you will be sent to starve even faster in the gulag.

Terrified grins? I watched this twice and didn't see any?

@John Blaesel I always wonder how much of what WE hear about North Korea is propaganda. Hard to know what's real.

@Mr. Pig It's easy when your motivation is that if you don't, you disappear.

@ezakustam Do u think they’re faking it?

@John Blaesel If you think that's what a genuine smile looks like, you may be on the spectrum or dark triad.

Imagine they turn into baby-zombies like Minecraft

@Hambone571 I think they’re just brainwashed to think that they live in a superior culture.

Uncanny? No, it’s really scary that they are probably “made and compelled” to do this, or else.  A whole country of robots, doing what to do, how to do it, and when… and WITHOUT QUESTION.

@CINKA So where do Polish embassy workers live in North Korea and what sort of living conditions do they live under?  Does the Polish government provide some kind of perks for their embassy workers in the DPRK just for working and living in that country?  Do they provide a polish grocery store for their embassy workers and ship in the products from Poland?  I ask because the U.S. embassies in 3rd world countries provide good living quarters and commissaries with products that cannot be purchased in the host countries.

@John Blaesel I was supposed to go to the Polish ambasady there for a month but they closed due to COVID. Now that North Korea has confirmed it’s not covid free anymore (as it ostensibly was unaffected before) I doubt the embassy’s will open back anytime soon. It’s not about covid anymore - some of them are enormous old buildings. Empty since 2020. Probably bugged by now. You can’t expect taxpayers to accept the government using their money to debug an embassy in the DPRK haha. But a trip is always an option. My friend from a NKS PHD cohort went via train, had fun. Maybe one day I’ll go too;)

@CINKA If you’re from Poland have you ever thought of visiting North Korea?  It’s very do-able for you as there are tour agencies that specialize in tours to North Korea.  I would love to visit there myself but seeing that I’m American, the State Department forbid us from visiting that country in 2017.  I don’t see that law being rescinded anytime soon.

@CINKA I’m not condoning North Korea because it is a criminal regime but even some of the stories about their criminality that come out of South Korea you have to take with a grain of salt because not all of those stories are accurate and some are exaggerated.  There is a bit of animosity between North and South Korea.

@John Blaesel As we say in Poland, “your point of view depends on where you are sat at”.

@John Blaesel Yeah. I think even the most basic fact, being not enough reliable sources and intel there, should stop people from making such assumptions. These people often don’t know more than what they have there (despite a pretty vast outside info influx that we can’t deny. But Pyongyangism is a thing, so are extremely remote rural areas). What is happiness for us in the first world is something they could never properly comprehend, yet alone had any chance to ascribe any happy-ish values to it

@John Blaesel Hi! There are a few universities in the world doing the NKS programme, there is only one in Europe I think and I majored there (UCLAN).

It depends. You could work in diplomacy, the UN, NGOs etc. I have a BA in South Korean Studies so I know a bit of Korean too so I could get into translations and similar things. It’s always very situational but there is defo future ahead, you just need to find your way about it :—)

I am planning to start a PHD programme next year, so I’ve not really looked into it that much. I think it all depends on what you want from life :) and what are your plans for the future

@CINKA BTW, I agree with you about the North Korean children.  I really think they’re too young to know what they should be terrified about.  They looked genuinely happy in this video, performing in front of their Godlike leader.  Not every child in North Korea has that opportunity.

@CINKA You majored in North Korean Studies??  I never knew there was such a major.  So what kind of job can you get with a major in North Korean Studies??

@Mick I second this. I majored in North Korean Studies for my postgrad and, from my academic perspective, in a country so deeply indoctrinated, isolated and permneated with propaganda and their own, isolationist ideology, to blatanlty say that their children are "terrified" by sheer existence is pretty ignorant. I get that everyone wants to be a part of the discussion about the DPRK, as it's ostensibly easy to be an expert in something even the actual experts often struggle to find reliable sources about, but sometimes it's better not to speak, than to do just for the sake of it.

Very, very creepy and sad. Those kids have been around for many years and the almost universal reaction was to condemn North Korea for child abuse.

As awful as North Korea is, don't assume the worst of little kids being abused for a musical production - they are not terrified - you realise how little you know about this country?

Mike DeMarco And their parents were sent to a retraining camp.

Strum harder, little Mi-Yeong! Ignore the fact that the Great Leader just jacked your moonpies!

"Terrifying"
Thankyou.I was trying to find the word.
😯

@Marcel Mallory A truly "Children of the Damned " moment.  Or "Children of the Corn" for that matter.
'

'

Now imagine the parents who are having their 5-7 year old kids practice guitar for ten hours a day, every single day.

It's not just uncanny it is scary!! There are lots of such videos; just type in 'korean children guitars' and be afraid - very afraid.

On adult-sized guitars! It must have been painful.

Almost as upsetting as bags of Shanghai felines 😿


why does this sync up so perfectly AND WHY IS IT SO HILARIOUS??

NK didn't know it, but it was meant to be....😁


I nearly peed myself laughing. Comedic gold!


Nicely done, brought a smile to my face.


Monty Python would be so proud of this. 😂😂😂


I like how when it cuts to the audience clapping everyone has this sad depressing look on their face

@love always Eastwood did it to be macho, but in North Korea, it is illegal to wear any facial expression that was not approved by the politbureau

@Mark Davis i am laffing at your comment, in a very sad way

@Charles C. so cool..<br>Clint Eastwood never smiled either [when he was cool]

@Charles C. so cool..
Clint Eastwood never smiled either [when he was cool]

i was there.. and.. i was not scurred, or sad..<br>Kim is awesome

Next time it'll be corrected, because they'll be dead.

Did you know blind humans smile even though they have never seen someone smile because it’s natural

@Medial canthus … They were talking about 0:11… Also yeah some of us westerners aren’t the greatest but not all of us are so self-centered. I try not to be (though I may have my moments) and I try to surround myself with people who aren’t so full of themselves. I’m sorry that you’ve met some not-so-great westerners but trust me, it ain’t all of us

Knowing if one is out of time or place 👉🏻☠👈🏻

@Medial canthus how do you know if they're from the west

They can be killed at any second. Tortured to death, really.

@Charles C. The event where the performers are smiling?

@Person Man a reason like watching a festive live performance?

@Mark Davis My gosh, that makes so much sense. I’ve always found it strange that I laugh more when times are tough. It’s certainly not like that for everyone though.

No it doesn't lol wth are you watching? Asian countries tend to be more reserved in general and sit and appreciate the performance. Look at a Japanese wrestling audience, they sit and clap and observe. Just a different culture. And if the countries so oppressive, then logic would dictate they wouldn't look depressed in case of getting in trouble. It's not a rock concert, it's a reserved performance lol crazy logic people create haha

Compared to this anthill, yes the west can be self righteous.

In fact, the Congo can be self righteous bout this.

These people did not chose this. It was chosen for them by state planners. There are no mandolins in Korea. But, the dictator likes mandolins, so all play the mandolin.

To admire this sort of thing shows your state of mind. One which hates liberty and individualism, and supports movements that would squash them if they could.

Are u blind, you can't see people smiling. Don't be so biased and prejudiced.
The west needs some of this to mix with their laxity and decadence.
In addition, the west need not be so self-righteous and judgemental. Different people / countries have different ways to achieve their way of happiness or fulfilment, success and survival.

I've read interviews with people who escaped North Korea, and they said they actually laugh a lot.  If you're in a depressing environment, it's natural to seek joy in little things.   People find reasons to laugh when they have nothing, and find reasons to cry when they have everything.

@Person Man And yet it would indirectly makes other people more happy if you smile all the time.

@Charles C. You're both right and wrong and I don't feel like explaining why.

@Jim Dandy East Asia is traditionally highly subdued, and because NK never westernised outside of soviet influence, which also hates smiling on camera, they do not laugh or smile in public because it is a lack of composure and insults the formality of whatever event that is

I don't smile unless they s a reason to if you smile all the time it becomes meaningless or at least means less

@YSW No one here is confused but you. Smiling isn't cultural lol, it's human. Guess you wouldn't know that....?

“Dear Leader” fat kid smiles every time he has someone executed.

@Luso True. The Replublok of Oublic banned laughing in 1823

I heard its actually illegal to laugh in oublic


Wonderful to see people having fun. <br>Everyone deserves fun !

Wonderful to see people having fun.
Everyone deserves fun !


Good grief, feel like a plonker. For about a minute I thought they WERE singing that! Brilliantly done! BRAVO.


I really shouldn't be laughing but I can't help it. This is brilliant.


This is one of the saddest videos I’ve ever seen. You get the feeling every breath these people take is planned to the last detail. 😢


That was fantastic! No one puts on an entertainment extravaganza like those North Koreans! Very impressive that soldiers, children, and North Koreans from all walks of life learned to sing this song in perfect English just so they could show the west their undying love for us!

@Anthony Spanos You've obviously missed the irony in timberwolf's comments. It's called sarcasm in common parlance.

I laughed as much about the gooney reply (replies) to the original comment as I did the movie 😂🤣

Ha, ha, yes, this was absolutely brilliant. Perhaps a little rendition of "I'm a little despot, short and stout" would go down almost as well.

@Timberwolf DT Productions In Soviet Korea, comment section upvotes you!

@the tessellater Please refer to comments section. I don't have the patience to go through this yet again.

You do know its dubbed over the original sound, surely?

@KorEire i can't believe anybody actually to be this daft, honestly

I'm impressed as well, they must love us very much 😉

@KorEire hang on, I met you in Swindon in 1982.

@Илья РыженкоI am from Russia) good attempt))) xaxaxa

@KorEire judging by how you do not perceive humor, it seems to me that you are from north korea

Илья Рыженко

@KorEire It's sometimes kind of hard to see if someone is joking if you don't see his emotions/face

@Timberwolf DT Productions This whole comment thread is at once hilarious and exasperating.

@KorEire These are different clips of different videos but these videos are real.

<b>SOMEDAY THESE GUYS WILL FCK OUT ALL SH1T FROM YANKEES</b>

*SOMEDAY THESE GUYS WILL FCK OUT ALL SH1T FROM YANKEES*

@Timberwolf DT Productions wow, wot an exchange 🤣.. take it from me.. using absurdity to illustrate absurdity is futile now..

.." What ? Me worry ?"
.."I'm just a happy idiot in a world of idiots.. "

@Timberwolf DT Productions man they did such a great job! It's such a nice detail, we should sing something in Korean in return

@Timberwolf DT Productions ,
I've got his name right.
Gad Saad.
He has a YouTube channel.

@ARVID LYSTNUR Actually,  I've never heard of him,  (most of my comedic icons are the comedy greats from the 60's, 70's, and 80's), but he sounds interesting; I'll have to look him up.  Thanks for bringing him to my attention.

@Timberwolf DT Productions ,
You must be a fan of Gaud Saad, ( I'm sure I spelled his name wrong).
He uses sarcasm to make whole statements that are utterly foolish and dangerous, yet many believe the ideas and some are angered by him, believing he stands for foolish notions.

@Timberwolf DT Productions They're Asian. They don't even know what sarcasm is

@KorEire This entire exchange by you group of geniuses hurts my brain! I feel like I’m in a rainstorm and people around me are arguing about whether there are clouds in the sky! It’s terrifying to see how easily people are fooled. Millions of years ago, at the dawn of humanity, people discovered humour. Shortly after that came sarcasm and satire. They’ve been used extensively in literature, art, and daily conversation by people all over the world ever since. How is it possible that some people still haven’t caught on?

They probably do a pretty good cover of "I Like Chinese", too...

@KorEire You seem like a really smart lady.

@KorEire By the jovial looks and mannerisms of the soldiers singing and dancing, the actual song had to be just as fun loving as the song spliced in.

@KorEire Oh ok, yes, I can agree with that.  But what song would they be singing and dancing to in trying to entertain their darling leader?

@KorEire So you’re saying that the music is fake and that the soldiers singing and strutting in place to the music during the first minute of the video are all fake and not really North Korean soldiers?  And the kids strumming the guitars and dancing not really North Korean children?  I don’t know if I believe it’s that fake.  Perhaps the music might be spliced in but the visuals and facial expressions I think are authentic.

@KorEire Some fake things might be spliced in but I don’t believe that all of this video is fake.

@Forgiven Sinner I'm happy for you my man

@KorEire Check your sarcasm and irony detector. It seems to be broken.

@Anthony Spanos Everything I said is 100% accurate; I would never ever make a satirical comment about such a sacred event just to get a laugh, especially on such a serious and respectable channel as this. Welcome to the comments section.


The creator of this should get an immediate Nobel prize.


Great freaking job on this.  I was crying i laughed so hard


What happy faces and people, what a great nation !!


This is a level of genius previously unknown to man.

Bet that's put you on the hit list. Wonderful stuff.


I don't know why, but this is inexplicably hilarious


Imagine living in a country where you are constantly looking over our shoulder


Knowing the culture and the differences between the two Koreas even though I'm not Korean I can tell this is exactly what they would do!


You really captured the spirit of Monty Python. With a little Mel Brooks thrown in for good measure.

@Артём Морозов Death to the tyrant Communist Goverments.

The North Koreans are such a fun, happy and loving people 😊❤


This is great! Watched a few times. Excellent work, my Friend.  😊


Hilarious, brilliant and frightening all at the same time.


A spanish catholic like me laughed and laughed with the Monty Python's "spanish inquisition" .... i can't think the same about the coreans with this fantastic video 😂😂😂😂😂😂


Hey Jesus, why don't you/your dad do something about Trump's buddy Un so the people in the NK don't suffer anymore? Thanks.

Jesus I love that we watch the same content I see you often

Hey, does Mary have an Instagram account? Asking for a friend.

nousername Ok....well, that doesn't sound silly at all, now that you've explained it.

Why call on the old man if you're qualified yourself?


i wish more country is like this.... world peace will be guaranteed


Life of Brian joke for real...can't believe the creative director got away with it. This is EPIC!


It's amazing how much the narrative can differ from the actual thing, when only using music to tell the story.


I’ve tried finding the info in comments, where did you get the original audio from ??  I love this. Rewatched many times. But need to hear the whole choral orchestral piece please haha


Nothing is ruined here. This is my favourite of your work so far. No wonder Eric Idle retweeted it. Fantastic stuff.

@InGodzHandz I can see why he would.  That's pure Monty Python right there!.

Almost better than Monthy Pyton could have made!


In stitches right now, that was brilliant


I usually really like your content, but this one, this is beyond magnificent. Well timed, nicely synchronized and even lip-synced.


If north korea gets unified, they should keep this type of choirs and orchestras just like the Red Army Choir.


The transition to showing the military when "always look on the bright side of death" line comes up is brilliant


How? How is it so perfectly cut? It is like Mary Poppins - practically perfect in every way.


This was a god tier performance.  Bravo.

This was a god tier performance.  Bravo.


I cannot imagine the amount of hours you spent watching various concerts to find a suitable match to the song. You're incredible.

Edit: I was curious because of your name so checked out your channel and was pleasantly surprised you were consistent with your quality content. I'm happy i was recommended this channel. Lol. Subbed.

I'm glad I read your edit because otherwise I wouldn't have looked at the channel. "Straight Outta Compton" immediately convinced me to subscribe

@There I Ruined It Yes, very quality content.  TIRI is a master at doing this.


This is so good I keep coming back to it!


Petition:
If North and South Korea reunites everyone there has to sing this song.
In a way, both North and South Korea will have one more duet before they ultimately be together again.


I love the wee guys who stand alongside rocket man with their little notebooks and hats that you could land a helicopter on, hanging on to his every word.


Whom Can We Trust If No One Is Trustworthy?
One of my favorite quips from Mark Twain’s The Adventures of Tom Sawyer is when Tom is defined as “a glittering hero…the pet of the old, the envy of the young,” and there were “some that believed that he would be President, yet, if he escaped hanging.” With these few words, Twain captured the essence of leadership in our world. Those who get to the top are the fiercest, most determined, and most ruthless. Today, the latter quality has become so intense that we can no longer believe our leaders, and certainly not trust them to have our best interest in mind.
I am not accusing any leader in particular, or even leaders as a whole. It is simply that in an egoistic world, where people vie to topple one another on their way to the top, the one at the top is clearly the one who trampled over and knocked down more people than anyone else. Concisely, to get to the top in an egoistic world you have to be the biggest egoist.
So how do we know whom to trust? We don’t know and we cannot know. All we know is that we are in the dark.
In a culture of unhinged selfishness, any conspiracy theory seems reasonable, while truth is nowhere to be found. When every person who says or writes something is trying to promote some hidden agenda, you have no way of knowing who is right, what really happened, or if anything happened at all.
The only way to get some clarity in the news and goodwill from our leaders is to say “Enough!” to our current system and build something entirely independent. The guiding principle of such a system should be “information only,” no commentary. Commentary means that information has already been skewed. Information means saying only what happened, as much as possible, not why, and not who is to blame and who we should praise.
Concurrently, we must begin a comprehensive process of self-teaching. We have to know not only what is happening, but why we skew and distort everything. In other words, we have to know about human nature and how it inherently presents matters according to its own subjective view, which caters to one’s own interest. To “clear” ourselves from that deformity, we must learn how to rise above our personal interest and develop an equally favorable attitude toward others. This is our only guarantee that our interpretation of things will be even and correct.
Once we achieve such an attitude, we will discover that the bad things we see in our world reflect our own, internal wickedness. Our ill-will toward others creates a world where ill-will governs, and so the world is filled with wickedness and cruelty. Therefore, all we need in order to create positive leadership—and to generally eliminate ill-will from the world—is to generate goodwill within us. When we nurture goodwill toward others, we will fill the world with goodwill. As a result, the world will fill with kindness and compassion. By changing ourselves, we will create a world that is opposite from the world we have created through our desires to govern, patronize, and often destroy other people.

Sounds like you're pimping for a music video of your own...maybe, "Strawberry Fields Forever"?


You did such a good job of matching lip movement that I spent several seconds wondering how such a thing could have happened!

No, this was actual. I believe it was "The DPRK presents Monty Python's Life of Brian the Musical at the Pyongyang civic center"


Thank you for bringing a smile to my face


every performance is really an audition to be picked to live to see another day


Given recent events and your ability to get the timing just right you might consider doing "I want to be your sledgehammer" featuring you-know-whio and his former boss to give us all a bit of a laugh.


A masterpiece of scary synchronisation. Remember, the Dear Leader got them all psyched up... he'll collapse in apoplexy if he ever hears the final result. Can anyone get it to him?


"Dude, why do you keep clapping?"

"I CANT STOP CLAPPING"

"Yes you can"

"HES WATCHING"


After watching this video, my brain has been comfortably washed and I am feeling much better.   The Great Leader is a really nice guy, and his taste in musical entertainment is peccable.  Many thanks for posting this.  I can get back to my missile testing now.

Brilliant editing. Song always cheers me up!


Bruh that end credit just slapped me with nostalgia.


Two months later, and the standing ovation at the end still hasn't finished

@Chris F.:  😂😂😂.  Funny!  No one dared.   They didn’t wanna be the first one placed before a live AA gun, which Fatty has known to have done in the “Paradise” that is the DPRK.


Hey, which arrangement of the song did you use? It sounds great, especially the brass section in the finale... or did you mix together different arrangements even? To geht the Guitars and the choir to match the footage?

@Oldřich Neumann i was scrolling the comments and the creator said, "It’s a hodge podge of several recordings, including my own voice" so, i guess there is no definite version, just find the one you like the most

I can't find the original song and i'm desperate for it!


That cracked me up !! <br>Thanks for posting this very clever production!

Paweł Marszałek - MJ Tribute Entertainer


Absolute classic. My brother's in NK right now working for "MoD". I'll send it to him.


Honestly that completely emotionless clapping is equal parts "I clap because it fear for my family" and "I clap because that's what I've been taught since birth"

Indeed-if only they could give 28 standing ovations to Netanyahoo 🦨like the US Congress a few years back -  🏆 US shekelclappers.....put the N K's to shame.🥸

Sure the Monty Python guys would like this. The Hair and the hats of Kim.🤪 He's waiting for Donny.🇰🇵


It kind of seems like spending your life in a Norman Rockwell painting!... What could be better? They are all so happy!


So funny!!!! Thank you. Got to be the greatest joke of all!!!


There, you didn't ruin it - you even managed to preserve the naivety of the original.  I've long thought that I'd like to have that Monty Python song at my funeral; now I want your version.  Terrific!

Benny Hill considered funnier than Monty Python by two TV stations-- WOR and WLVI.


They seem like the nicest and most optimistic people on earth!


Imagine they played this for real...what a brilliant image campaign idea !👏


0:52 I realize it's funny, but that lone whistle followed by the panicked "sh!" chills my blood.


😂😂 i never thought Koreans having Humor. But this is absolutly great😅


If you’re never seen or heard of again after this one… know that it was worth it. 😉 gold!!

Voted most likely to be depicted on the back of a milk carton...

Was about to comment the same thing. Last we ever saw of them…


I swing radically from laughing to horror, and back again.


If there is anything better than this out there on YouTube, I have yet to see it!


They seem to be a lot happier than mainstream media tells us


I love how you used the kazoo bit from Grand Illusions. I love that channel. 😁


Well done. You've managed to invoke within me love, hatred, anger, pity, and fear all at the same time.

I near wet while watching, the laughs stop and a total body
revulsion/sick took over....don't remember WHY I found this.
The absolute evil VS the virus of insanity of our now...damn.


This is the best video on YouTube. Hands down.


Why do I have a feeling these videos are going to bring world peace 😊


Crying with laughter. That has to be thee funniest YouTube post ever. Thank you.  What a genius 👏


I love Monty Python as well as Mel Brooks, and figured this would be something similar to a particular number from "The Producers."  It was, but darker, and WOW did this work just a little too well. o_0


What an amazing performance, every one of them deserves a medal.

a nuke coming their way has lots of metal🤣🤣🤣🤣

Try and find a place to put another medal on.. they get out of the shower they weigh 142 pound's then they put the uniform on and they now weigh in at 225

some of those generals be getting so many medals the medal inflation is worse than February 2019 Venezuela

@Jay Godfrey Eventual chronic back problems. 😆

What’s one more medal added to the collection?


This was so cute and extremely scary at the same time.


I love how everything cuts on the whisle because they can't speak over him


Only the great culture of North Korea, the paradise on earth for workers, can create this wonderful song!

This is so wholesome! Can't wait to go to north korea soon 🤩


If you're happy and you know it, clap your hands


This song is probably one the greatest ironies put on the internet. Besides "Never Gonna Give You Up"  of course.


Oh my, I needed that! Python & Pyongyang, ready to invade your hearts.


So many levels of funny (and yet worrying) things in here. Greatly done as always. Seeing your creations pop up on my feed always bring a smile to my face :)

Personally, I find the US foreign policy much more worrying

Yes. The cute little girls overacting their joy was heart-plucking.


This brings the phenomenon of spontaneity to a whole new and unknown level...

People reference old stuff constantly, most of it is played out to me, but this is the first throwback to more than a decade ago I've had in ages

@Gabe C. It's the outro for Gracie Films, the production company that makes The Simpsons.

What is that otro? I haven’t heard that in like 15 years!

My brain expects the 20th Century Fox theme tune to come next.

Not that I haven't seen it millions of times but refresh me, what's it from again?

Gracies film is still big I guess since the Simpsons is still ongoing.

That outro took me back to being a kid in the 80's again so fast I think I have whiplash.


WELL DONE Good sir! The crowd clapping reminds me of the old ladies clapping in the flying circus famous cutaway


Dude you've officially won. This is the best channel on YouTube.


Fantastic rendition from the N Korean Orchestra


Thank you for making me smile during these trying times. Perfection from start to end. Love from Belgium.


Sometimes I think god has forsaken us, But then here he is, with an other masterpiece


I love that you found footage of a slide whistle just for this


<b>I want to move to North Korea and be as obediently happy as them!</b>   😁

*I want to move to North Korea and be as obediently happy as them!*   😁


Who wouldn't sing along with this classic. It's manditory.

The whole world knows they're fakes but yet they still put on a show. Sad.

From a country that required everyone to cry when this current whip-jack's father died.  Or be shot.  Pretty good incentive to let them flow.


That’s some awfully powerful convictions they got right there…no wonder they’re such a happy bunch.


The idea says funny, the pay off  kind of actually terrifying. Well played.


To be forced to smile , sing ,and be happy  when a crazy idiot orders , and when you don’t have  food on your table  must be very hard


One guy didn't miss a beat.

That's because he skipped a beat.


Wow... this was amazing, and the song fits so well with everything as well! You sir did not ruin this, you made it 1,000x better! <3


how many levels of genius are present in this masterwork, must have been made by the great kim himself!


Those adorable guitar children are terrifying.


When the big one lands I want to be playing this!


If there's ever going to be a Team America 2 this song should be in the soundtrack.


This is so incredibly well done. And also so funny to watch!  You made my day!


What a wonderful  country  everyone  is well fed and happy

True ! Ask any of them and they'll say the same.


I caught it. The little girl in the red dress, she looked like she was about to cry for a fraction of a second, but quickly recovered.


Two of my favorite things, Life of Brian and North (Best) Korea.


This is an absolute treasure. Never knew North Korea and Monty Python could fit together so well.

It's because both are misunderstood by self-righteous chodes.

Monty Python always did parodies of totalitarian regimes so well: Gestapo interrogators, Russian firing squads, the National Bocialists and the Minehead by-election, and of course, the Spanish Inquisition (which nobody ever expects).

<i>"I like Chinese"</i> adapted to the current century.

_"I like Chinese"_ adapted to the current century.

Well both contain high levels of absurdity.

North Korean propaganda is so over the top, it's indistinguishable from satire.


I come everyday back here just to see this masterpiece


I think ive watched this about 40x now in the past two weeks.


The little "dink" with the vibraphone was just great.


You deserve all the editing awards. As someone who’s done sync editing, this is amazing.


I know it's a Monty Python, but does anyone know where I could find the original version of this live recording?

It’s a hodge podge of several recordings, including my own voice 👍


This is a great edition. You didn't ruin this song at all. 😂


Love the twisted humor of the song, especially paired with the North Korean film clips, but I'm completely mad about the little girl doing her best Shirley Temple imitation. How did you ever find her? Mad props, folks.


this must be the greatest, most kindest, most free country in the world ❤❤❤❤

"I'm so ronery, so ronery," will be for ever burned in my mind, lol.


Not sure what’s going on with that, but it seems hilarious to me, so kudos to you. New subscriber. We’ll see what comes up!


At that point when the one singer accidentally whistled off cue, I was bracing myself for the sound of a single gunshot afterward! Awesome job!


the best variation of monty pythons song ever ! 😥 <br>How long will it last, to become our narionalhymn in Germany ???

How long will it last, to become our narionalhymn in Germany ???


I wish there were a way I could like this again


Well done, very well done. One of the great things about the era we live in (unless you are in North Korea), is talented people can come up with stuff like this and the rest of us can see it!

And I don't think you ruined the song at all, it made me laugh at the little fat guy all the more.


Simultaneously hilarious and frightening.


Reminds me of the old saying:

"Every nation has an army - either one of its own or a foreign one.

  I would prefer to live in a country with its own, strong army, but alas ...."


Очень до боли напоминает ещё одну страну.


This reminds me of  Otto Frederick Warmbier. An American college student arrested and tortured for stealing a political poster. After his torture released to the United States to die of his injuries<br>Some profess their love for North Korea leadership and others die because of it

It's amazing what can give this auld woman a giggle on a grim day. This was just ... positively Pythonesque.


They should do a Shiny, Happy People cover.


You didn't ruin it: this is exactly what Monty Python would do if they thought of it.


This little girl with a guitar doing a face cam ate my soul with her piercing eyes


Unironically a very good version. The brass slaps


It boggles the mind that this place actually exists. Like… how???


Some how I found this to be amazingly satisfying,and rather disturbing in a dystopian kinda way…..


I can just imagine the terror and trembling that occurred during the making of this...


Imagine living in a world where how much you force a smile or force tears and crying on a nearly daily basis will determine whether you live or die, and everyone around you thinks it’s normal and acceptable.

@Sarah Berkner exactly, refer to what I said

@whatslifespurpose  Says person currently on YouTube lol

@anastunya Not really. Or a comparison at all. Or reasonable to even comment

@Tone Funny enough, there is not much difference.

Sounds like the social media world of the West!

Which you know how?

Amazing that some are so caught up in their own problems, they will not see this for the evil that it is.

they're probably still happier than most of american who live on pill

You're not gonna be killed if you don't smile in North Korea you know... that's West propaganda lol

@Tone both suck bro....imma be real chef both times people starve

@Dave L. This is not Communist its more fascist

And yet people still advocate for communism…


Seeing a smiling North Korean is like seeing a unicorn riding on the back of a tye-dyed Rhino.


That is so freaking great! Lol!!! Perfect!


The poor cameraman died of his injuries trying to smuggle this wonderful video to the rest of the world.


That was the funniest thing I have seen in years 🥸


Wah ! Really not sure about that ?! Somehow it was hilarious-perfectly pythonesque ! But also pretty freaking scary !?👌🤣


As an emmy award editor, I must say this is GREAT!! I know how much effort this takes


Ha, ha, absolutely brilliant. Why not do one of "I'm a little despot, short and stout"?


Every missile is sacred
Every missile is great
If a missile is wasted
Kim gets quite irate


So wholesome. Love it. The laughter through tears vibe is strong in this one.


Hi I am a south korean...and I feels like they look so happy so....let them live with positive side forever!!!! Good luck North corea


Hes not a fat dictator, hes just a very naughty boy.


Can't believe it's taken so long for this to show up in my feed. Hilarious. Instant subscriber.


1:10 why am I laughing 😭 my humor is broken


The key change into the marching chorus line got me. Bravo


Brilliant! For some reason I really enjoyed that!!


I always get reminded of the life of Brian whenever I hear this song


No one was crucified during this remake, like in the original movie !!<br>Except soldiers who were out of step after the filming ended.

Except soldiers who were out of step after the filming ended.


Absolutely love the "whole happy vibe" from the audience. Same kind of feelings when your dentist is about to pull your wisdom teeth. 😉🥴

ouch or know you have a seemingly endless series of appointments for crowns and fillings after having just 2 fillings done for the day.


it's so awesome and so disturbing at the same time.


“OK kids, I want you to smile like your lives depend on it. Because they do”.


0:13 the transition to the kids nailed it!! Though they’re North Koreans, so these might be actual malnourished adults from outside of Pyongyang.


I’m horrified. I’m transfixed. And I am wholeheartedly impressed. I no longer know what’s real.


People in North Korea are born to know how to be grateful😢


I didn't want to watch this at first but I'm glad I did. 😊


Didn’t know I needed this, but I’m glad I got it!


I LOVE MONTY PYTHON and this is the f***ing best version of Always look on the bright side I've heard in a while! Dude you're  A W E S O M E !

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍FELIE KOET   !!!!  I LIKE IT,,....👍👍 I  LIKE IT A LOT            Verrrry   Good  the  best   👍👍👍👍👍

Benny Hill considered funnier than Monty      <br>Python by two TV stations-- WOR and WLVI.

That was such a surreal feeling watching that..😂😂👌👌


Is this so wrong that it is utterly fabulous!!


People say North Korea is a bad place, this looks great! The missiles at the end really showed that they love huge fireworks, and they seem to be sponsored by nerf as well! Their kids are all very talented and you can really see the diversity in their people. Kim seems like a great man, shown in the propaganda I mean, just so happy and bright! Seems like a free place to live where they party every day! I, as am American will gladly visit!

(Americans can’t actually visit North Korea, oops.)


I also wanna live in a country where people know to clap on beats 2 and 4 instad of 1 and 3 like legit everyone does here in Germany…


God damn I wish this was real. The idea of them singing Monty Python songs in North Korea gives me those special feelings

@Peter Clarke Your correct. Their to serious for this,but the Americans Discoverd The Pythons in the 70s/80s,so Their planning a 'The Other Other Operation'!Since they suspect the American Capitolist Roadsters of planning something? We will see! 🇰🇵🎎🚜🇰🇵

I like to think they do. In my alternate universe, they're all secretly playing the biggest extended practical joke in human history, and the whole "world's most secretive nation" thing is a smokescreen for them actually having a shit-tonne of fun with dressing up and pretending to be militaristic, when actually they just really, REALLY like Monty Python.

I'm sure the the surviving Pythons would like it as well.RIP Graham(Brian),Terry(Brians Mum).North Koreans likening this is funny.🇰🇵🙏🙂🇰🇵

Andrew Buckle. I don't Blame you,it's brilliant.🇰🇵🙂🙏

Having just watched The Life of Brian  ........  Say no more!


Too funny! And a good time was had by all the North Koreans, because they were told to do so!


We all know Bryan was born in the best Korea 🇰🇵


Brilliant music (and performance) from Pyongyang


I always play this when I'm sad. It's top on my  playlist

Don't forget bro, always look on the bright side of life.


Well done. Mel Brooks and The Producers really seemed to spring to my mind watching the video.

I get the song selection and Monty Python however.

@saint denis I'd say there is a bit of Terry Gilliam humor in there as well. Mel Brooks always enjoyed his over the top musical numbers. Springtime for Hitler and Germany was the first thing that sprang to my mind when I started watching the video.

Michael Hansen  Not ''Monty python'', by any chance?


Never know they have such sunny attitude on life. 🎉


It's just amazing that many people would live under those conditions, it's just unbelievable they think that is the correct way to live. Sometime humans are just so easily lead astray.


Smile in the face of fear - someone at a time


This is like my favorite video. I laugh until I cry. Most people do not understand it is a parody of the most negative dictatorial country on earth. This is BRILLIANT. Perfectly timed.


This was so accurate, i thought it was real.


This harkend back to quintessential late 2000s Youtube. Sublime


You have not ruined it this time, you've improved the legendary song.


Very well made, perfectly matched timing. I love these humorous adaptations of mass performances in a country where everyone effectively has a gun pointed at their head forced to worship their bullshit glorious dictator. Funny but scary.


OMG! LMAO! After the show comes the executions! The suspense is killing me!


Absolutely brilliant, well done. Glad to see the ministry of silly walks got their time to show their flair. Look forward to the sequel, Radetzky march could be a good opener followed by the can can from whoever the fat one is that is in charge leading it. Sorry for my dark sense of humour.  Clip was just great, obviously a lot of work went into it, once again thank you to all who put this together. The world needs humour like this.


Ну разве они не классные?!)❤

lol, man, I thought it was wrapping up, then when the slow beat started and it went out to the slow motion soldiers and everyone in the streets, I don't know why but I just started cracking up. It went from good to fantastically amazing right there for me. Well done.


best laugh i have had in a while.  thanks


I’m sure Monty Python would’ve loved this.


When I say, "This is inspiring.", I'm not exactly sure what I mean by that...


Brilliant work in creating the parody and retro-lip-synching. <br>North Korea is truly an insane, scary place.  Proving once again just how much stranger fact is than fiction.  You, truly, couldn't make it up.

North Korea is truly an insane, scary place.  Proving once again just how much stranger fact is than fiction.  You, truly, couldn't make it up.


My favourite part was the one with the singing.  Glory to this masterpiece, and to the great and powerful Wizard Kim Jong-Un.....and his haircut.


такие дружные ребята)))))

такие дружные ребята)))))


Very nice. And they all sing without an accent! Fabulous! Thank you.


love the medals on the band leader.<br>He must have played some REALLY TOUGH gigs ?

love the medals on the band leader.
He must have played some REALLY TOUGH gigs ?


This is kinda disturbing given the context lmao. Masterpiece👏!


I watched the video, I've scrolled through the comments, and I still don't know if this was real or not.  It wouldn't surprise me at all, knowing that those Kims love all things American (well, British here) and pop culture.


Dripping with perfect, repurposed irony! A masterpiece...


If you’re an optimistic in North Korea you reached GOAT status.


This is the stuff nightmares are made of.


This is the new definition of "dark"  humor


"He's not the supreme leader, he's a very naughty boy!"


It is settled then. I am moving to North Korea. This video really pushed me over the edge, and I feel really good about this decision now. Looks like such a happy place!

Agreed. So much variety of fashion, expression and freedom coupled with an oversupply of healthy food. For me, though, I prefer a society more regulated, ordered and controlled. And a little more regimentation. Best stay where I am.


Dark humor is like food: not everyone in the world gets it.


Amazing!! Bravo!!!<br>Can you make a full version? I'm sure all the Pythons would love this.

Amazing!! Bravo!!!
Can you make a full version? I'm sure all the Pythons would love this.


To really learn about North Korea people should read one of the books in their local library about escape from North Korea.


0:38 I love the fact that Tim got featured in this :')


Congratulations. You've earned a spot on "Dutch Opium"


hahahahaha i love it and share it every few months hahahaha


Weirdly, this is very fitting. To a lot of people actually living in n. Korea, I'd imagine it could double for the national anthem.


hilarious, a lot of effort went into this and it shows


Beautiful! I think the Pythons would approve.


Terryfing and funny as hell at the same time!


Man that ending made me think i just got done watching a Simpsons episode XD


I love this one so much! Like an upbeat marching band, but theres a dystopian army looking happy in the background


He's not the 'Dear Leader'. He's a very naughty boy.


The department of joy at the North Korean embassy in London is going to be hyperventilating seeing this and demand punishment...


When your told to enjoy yourself under the threat of death.


To the best of all the Western countries’ respective intelligence services, all performers are thought to have still been alive at the time of release of the great dictator’s gala performance.  No badly missed notes, even by the tots. Phew!


Улыбаемся и машем.

Улыбаемся и машем.


This is absolutely awesome.  I don't think I'll ever look at these North Korean epics again without thinking of that song.  :)


For a moment I almost believed they sang it


This is horrible, not horrible. Not because it's bad. Because it hits the nail on the head.


Each person is living in abject fear for his life. Except for Rocket Man.


Always look on the bright side of life... And don't you DARE do anything else!


A masterpiece over a masterpiece. Somehow, this produces a stronger feeling of empathy on me, being the protagonists actual contemporary people.


North Korea's freedom is like dark humor, they wouldn't get it


I just can't get enough of this. Watching it over and over again... 😅


looks like a fun place. must visit.

edit: on a more serious note, i wonder how many of these people have mysteriously disappeared (for reasons)


RIP to whoever that was whistling off-cue


How did you make the audio?  Is it a real choir audio or a choir audio simulator??


I am in awe! This has to have taken an insane amount of time.


I love how fantastically twisted this is.


oh for crying out loud i thought this would be a rare appreciation of the performance


Which life do you choose between such a happy side or in a carton box?  Me : the carton box.


This is when one family literally moulds an entire country into their own surreal coke dream


This is definitely one of your best...<br>The degree of irony is off the charts and the synching is véry impressive...

This is definitely one of your best...
The degree of irony is off the charts and the synching is véry impressive...


I do hope someone shows this to Eric Idle. He would love it.


I’m North Korean and can confirm this is exactly what North Korea is like on Saturdays.


North Korea, Belarus and Russia it is very hard to understand how they fail to understand that they need to clean out the upper layers in society. I mean it almost makes life in China look like a good idea but they are not far behind


I don't know what to say other than I will continue watching this on a loop for the next half hour.


Оформляем канадскую визу


Great parody great editing. I feel a little better


Ladies and gentlemen.. introducing.. the 4 foot 3 tenors


🎵Always look on the bright of life!🎵 <b>tank goes by</b>

🎵Always look on the bright of life!🎵 *tank goes by*


I'm laughing so hard I think I'm going to have to finally write my will.  XD  This made my whole week!


Thankfully they have enough discipline to clap on 2 and 4


It’s creepy how those 4 year olds are all doing the same movements and the same expression


This is so python, I'm betting the original pythons would enjoy it very much if you showed them it.


OMG!  AAAAAAAAAHHHHH HAAAAAAA HAAA HAA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!  The Pythons need to see this!!! I cannot stop laughing!!!


"Life is just a show keeping laughing as you go " - they took that part literally


"arays rook on the bright side of rife" is what they should be singing


This is THE BEST video short I have ever seen on youtube!!! 😁


I'm surprised the kids aren't wearing military uniforms.


It's amazing how happy people can be at the threat of death or a life long of hard labor if you make 1 little mistake.

@ElroyMcDuff From what media did you get that from?

@Not Provided Oh sure, except that one just happens to be a story concocted by a fascist state & if you deviate from it you and your ENTIRE FAMILY will pay the consequences...

People in North Korea aren't being persecuted. There are two sides to every story

People can be even more enthusiastic at the threat of the gruesome massacre or a life long dangerous poverty when your only mistake was getting born (ex. Jeju or Seoul)


When I see this Generals and military Fools trying hard not to break down under the weight of all the sheet attached to their uniforms, it reminds me of a phrase used by the germans in second WW, making jokes about Herrman Göring, sparkling like a christmas tree. They said, that it continued on his back side


It's a work of art!  But some viewers don't get it.  Scary, eh?


Wouldn't be surprised if this gets picked up by NK state media. Just like when the Onion declared Kim 2011's sexiest man of the year 😆


Wow they're performing like their lives are depending on it.


Soooo much effort went into finding the right clips and then syncing them to the music. 10/10. Brilliant


Hilarious if the people of North Korea saw how the vast majority of the world really views their country like.


Can't decide if I'm about to laugh or just be very disturbed

Protip: eat popcorn while watching... if your shocked you'll stop eating


The clone march would be appropriate too.

PS: The fake smile of the children is particularly haunting.


The goose step is one thing but damn it. That stuttered goose step… is just so beautiful!!  Chills!!! 👏👏👏👏👏 Whoah.

"Goose Step Mama! Oh, yeah!" - Rutles<br>(Eric Idle played Dirk McQuigley)

"Goose Step Mama! Oh, yeah!" - Rutles
(Eric Idle played Dirk McQuigley)


This is awesome! Good thing you are not in North Korea!😄 I'm pretty sure this would bring you a really bad punishment.


What a nice military themed amusement park to take the kids to


‘What are you thinking, Kwan?’

- ‘Same as you Joon.’

‘In that case Kwan, I arrest you in the name of the people!’


The scenes of marching soldiers, tanks, and parading missile transporters played with "Always Look on the Bright Side of Life" are eerie, to say the least


Look at the skeletons in costumes of military outfits! It's like Halloween!


I hope you do an Iranian version as well - great video , so 1984 ish


Oh my gosh, I'm laughing so hard I'm about to get a hernia. That cake-walk to the beat is so hilarious.


We should adopt a political system like that one so we can be that happy and content


Why do I see a new Monty Python movie in the making from this?


This almost feels like something I"m not supposed to be laughing at but it's so good.


How great life would be, if we can see that we are conditioned too. There is actually not much difference.


This honestly sounds morbid ngl. It's like that montage music that plays during a war film where various stuff and murdering are jumpcut with upbeat music...


Holy crap, LMAO! Sir Dictator needs to get control of his flatulence!


North Korea looks like a wonderful place to live. Can’t wait to visit.

I once wrestled a bear, but lost. I hate bears.


Beautiful and very well made! Perfect! 🔥


These people are really nothing more than SIMS being played by one person.


This video, The Life of Brian, and The New Testament form a trinity.


That guy who whistled and coughed ais probably dead now kim wasn't happy at all 😔


imagine that you accidently fart during the silent moment of the performance, but you still keep smiling. (later, shooting sounds in the middle of music)


I didnt look at the channel name first and you had me going there for a second.
Your editing is brilliant, almost having the people mimicking the words perfectly.
Only a few times I thought WAIT AMINUTE THAT DOESNT FIT and then looked at the channel name. XD
Great Job!


The smiles, cheering and clapping are the other choice.


The guy who sang wrote this song Michael Palin accually coincidentally made a documentary about North Korea


I would not be a surprised if North Korea has the best musicians in the world

Living in a Normalized Mammal Cannibal Holocaust


A country that is actually a death camp. Good depiction. Too kind.


INCREDIBLE!! An 11! Fantastic work, everyone. This is the best satirical editing I have ever seen.


Always look on the Bright Side of Life while showing all types of Weapons of Destruction.


It's easy to see why the world has a problem dealing with N.KOR. such fierce pride in who they are as a people makes them unbending, even in the face of grievous suffering.


Superb - but I doubt if there are too many happy people in North Korea


This is going to be your most popular upload. More North Koreans singing please!


brilliant! Now the EU version please, with Ursula!


That is the price of honor!<br>I think it is well worth it in life to earn honor.😇

That is the price of honor!
I think it is well worth it in life to earn honor.😇


0:53 "I'm so sorry, I won't make that mistake again." "Yes, you won't."

"Always look on the bright side of death"


I saw that Grand Illusions clip. Tim is such a wholesome fella


Wow- they really ARE the happiest people on Earth. Kim was right….


Perfect theme for our upcoming nuclear armageddon ❤


This is a very beautiful musical special operation!


In the first seconds of the video, I thought this was a real performance in NK when someone posted it on a chat group


Gods - that's some of the skinniest soldiers I've ever seen


Could almost be a scene from the 'Michael Palin In North Korea' documentary!! 😆😆


The Gracie Films Jingle was the icing on the cake.


Monty Python:  The West's greatest export to the terrifying regime of North Korea.


A minute and a half of brilliance. Well done.


It’s crazy to think about it… I mean there’s no way the Kim would actually like to listen to this or have this played.. 😂


Uncompromising editing. Brilliant !

Where does the soundtrack come from - is that you as well ?  (In which case, brilliant^2 ).


I've seen some of those video clips in their original context previously, which makes this all the more poignant. Brilliant!


Marching just as good as Russian soldiers.


I have always loved the NK women's jaundice-yellow tights!


This kind of editing is every politician's wet dream


Wow, they're actually very good aren't they..Do you think they might do a global tour sometime?

@93 Octane  boy can't wait for US tour next


And to think, the people that could benefit from this humour the most will never get to see it.


And for once, North Koreans looked happy


Lol! Man, I cannot even begin to fathom the amount of work you put into this. I saw one chord off. The People's Republic Of Self Improvement will visit you shortly to correct that....


North Korea has never felt so welcoming! It's nice to be synchronized not just in movement but also in starvation.


이 땅을 갈라놓은 수많은 욕심들
상처입은 과거를 이제는 끝내야해
우리 미래는 우리의 것이고
길은 아직 끝나지 않았으니까
튼튼한 두 다리와 뜨거운 심장으로
일번 국도를 달려 통일로 (가자)🤗


Makes me wish I’d been born in North Korea!


Someone put this song over the end scene of "the interview".


I just discovered this about two days ago shared it at least 10 times...it's brilliant!


I loved the old Generals with the big Heads. They clap his Hands to save her Life


Up until about two years ago No-Ko was afraid of us, now they laugh at us.


This is very unhinged and uncanny but I like it.


I love that no matter how incredible you are at these, you couldn't find video of a north korean man with a slide whistle XD

Also, the choir at 0:24 is actually Chinese, although in the original footage they were singing a song from DPR. Korea

Владислав Лазерев

😆 I looked. I would have settled for Chinese too. Not a big slide whistle culture.


Man, North Korea is one whimsical country isn’t it?


Köstlich, einfach nur zum Brüllen, wenn es nicht so traurig wäre


@The Divine Siphonophore bruh bro no cap gen z gen z no cap Fax drippy drip based redpilled mid no wayyyy im gen z no cap  fax

@The Divine Siphonophore get off the internet and get a life bruh

whats dark. nothings dark being shown. i know what north korea is but if you show it to a random person they would think its just a normal music video without knowledge of child labor and stuff like that


You do know that a lot of those soldiers didn't want to be soldiers..........they wanted to be........................................LUMBERJACKS!!!


There is a bright side of life in North Korea? The music is whimsical and up beat. Amazing! Makes me want to move there.


I’m a Canadian and most of us are at food banks now. Struggling to survive. North Korea looks pretty good right now.


You have not stayed true to the name of your channel, for this makes the song BETTER, not ruining it.


Pretty sure if this was in Korean you could share it saying it was real and people would believe it.


It's all there in the syncopated goose step. I knew the North were a fun crowd.


Sorry, you didn't ruin this one. This... This is a masterpiece!


Benny Hill vondiders funnier than Monty Python by two TV stations-- WOR and WLVI.


yes. i dont understand why people are disturbed in the comments its just a music video in north korea


Weather forecast in North Korea is Always Sunny all the time also you're not hungry ever.


🎵 North Koreans are still trying to find the bright side of life 🎵


👌 a beautiful rendition , brilliant timing , and ever so patriotic .<br> The Dear Leader, will  be most pleased with you 😆😂

👌 a beautiful rendition , brilliant timing , and ever so patriotic .
 The Dear Leader, will  be most pleased with you 😆😂


Ain't no party like a Pyongyang party, cause a Pyongyang party is absolutely mandatory.


The sociological teaching potential of the North Korean's, especially as they are locked within a gilded cage of sorts, viewing the world advance around them while they abide, stoically, for their opportunity and chance? You give these folks a good, solid leader based on egalitarian ethics, and we'll see some advances within the human race very quickly.  Excellent video, you captured the human condition perfectly. Thank you.


I like the cameo of Tim from Grand Illusions!


This video makes me want to travel to this country.  The people seem so nice and charming.

No need, toal world domination is the goal of the CCP and already has control of your country

These people are even more propagandized than the right-wing citizens of our country,  😮 if you can believe that. Totally controlled by fear and misinformation.

The ordinary people probably are the cult regime ruling the country with two iron fists are most certainly not.

@Greyman well yea, but I imagine it is very expensive to go there.


I asked a north korean what he things of life there, he said "I can't complain"


Perfectly contrasting the NK horror with such a silly song also NICE END REFERENCE


Always look on the brightside of life! The bright side being, if you do something wrong, you wont be alone, youll take your entire family with you sometimes!


Instead of participation trophies they get participation medals. Good job my North Korean bowler/baseball player.


It is funny, but also very sick to think that those puppets can only do as they are told,complain and they and all their family go to a concentration camp.


'Sing for your life' has never had so much meaning...

@?i Ha! Sadly so true... #sovietunion #iran #maoistchina #prc #communism


It becomes even better when u realize how much those people suffer in North Korea.


No there is a gross misunderstanding of Art or the most cynical rendition I've ever witnessed.


I really dont know why my YT algorithm show me this but i like it


They look soooo happy!   I hope we are this happy signing to dementia joe


Did Monty Python get back together temporarily? I pinch myself to test if I’m dreaming. This will make Eric proud. At the conclusion of the Life of Brian I do shed a tear for its Christlike hero and for us all. With this: I shed a tear for the North Koreans and for us all. This is not a movie- it’s the documentary version.

@There I Ruined It really!!!! Wow cool!!!! So happy for you! I think you deserve it, honestly- like I implied, it makes me laugh, and cry too, lust like the end of life of Brian! Happy for you! Excellent editing and fulfillment of idea!!!

Mr. Idle shared it on Twitter :) Super cool.


Q:  Who claps for the Supreme Leader?<br>A:  Anyone who wants to live.

Q:  Who claps for the Supreme Leader?
A:  Anyone who wants to live.


That's why I love North Koreans, they're always so cheerful and optimistic. A real glass-is-half-full nation.


In Best Korea everything is sunny, all the time. Always good time beach party


I can’t believe the North Koreans made this, they really have changed


1:03 looks like they're doing a kick line.


I burst out laughing on my balcony at the silent part


After being in Spamalot…… flashbacks to performing this song nightly


GREAT music and sound design for video!!!


North Korea must be great. Everyone always seems so happy there.


Apparently they have toddler beauty pageants in North Korea too.


I wept for 3 days and nights straight of happiness for this Glorious Music Arrangement by Our Beloved Leader.

You better weep for at least 5 days if you want your entire extended family to live.


It's nice to see North Korea celebrating the Life of Brian


Sometimes I wonder if sanctions were lifted what they can achieve. As they have crippling sanction but they somehow maintain gigantic army and develop Nukes. Very impressive IMO


I don't deserve such lovely gifts, we hardly know each other, but thank you so very much. This made me cry with glee.


Im surprised North Korea isnt just a massive quarry at this point. The amount of metal they need for the generals 900th medal for Complimenting the supreme leaders looks


Well...they look like they're doing just fine


Bro this was the silliest shit I’ve seen all 2023 😂


Reminds me of German comedian Werner Finck telling his fellow prisoners: "You don't need to be scared of the concentration camp. We are already in it."


I think the Spamalot cast would adore this!


They like their medals, don't they ? Everyone has a ton of them.


3 million views...probably 10k of them are me, its a fucking masterpiece.


well an army with that song would rather get me to surrender than with guns <3


Plot twist: North Korea is actually a happy, fun place ... none of our politicians want us to know how awesome it is, otherwise they would have to create similar utopias for us as well


Does anyone know who sings this version of Always Look On The Bright Side of Life??


Let's get a petition going to replace this as their national anthem!


Featuring Tim from Grand Illusions on the slide whistle. I'm impressed.


только сейчас стал замечать, что все диктатуры стараются создать красивую картинку общего состояния, а жаль, вся жизнь прошла и на основе таких заблуждений, я принял очень много плохих решений, ну хоть на последок все прояснилось и приняты шаги по минимизации рисков - и все организовано так, как я видел когда мне было 30 лет


If you don't, you will never see the light at the end of the tunnel.


That sounds great with such a broadway-esque big choir though


Must be a great leader, they can’t stop clapping him.


those kids scared me bro-the irony of fate wanted THIS song to be played in north korea


It’s claimed that that day only one village was completely burned down, as opposed to the compulsory three.


You should make an American version. At least you can use recent video footage and lots to choose from.


This is so alien to me being from the US.  Everyone here ran away from some oppressive authoritarian at some point in their family history.  These people have an expression similar to some of those religious videos where fanatics start speaking in tongues.


Jong un: how many badges do u want?

The general: Yes..


Some things in life are bad, they’ll really make you mad.<br>This isn’t one of them.

Some things in life are bad, they’ll really make you mad.
This isn’t one of them.


The North Korean Military Chorus - Always Look on the Bright? Side of Life


Kim Jong Un liked the song so much, he decreed an official period of mourning when it ended.


Reminds me of munchkin land. Keep waiting for the lollipop guild to pop out


All non-North Korean people: don't pretend that you are free!


I was having a truly awful, irredeemable day... until this.

Thank you oh Ruinous Music Man.


People, give credit to this big guy Kim. Hey diesel, you actually perfected creating a country of AI robots. The West is still on a research and testing stage. How did you do it, big guy, you, you...genius you.


Music is a great way to demonstrate, diversity and conformity in which is needed in life. It demonstrates the movement or music cannot happen without a composer to sync the works together. SO in a sense, music is a backbone of civilisation and literacy, etc... but its also danger to other forms of it... but meh, we definately have a degenerate system of hatred poured into other places... but meh, continuity and active person demenstrates a great input into a system meaning order of such things is what some humans needs, IE a perosn poor is then active and can demosntrate and be with common group of poeple, in civil realm, all we get is narcisstic and patronizing and hateful peopel that are opposite of all the inclusion and diverty that htey talk about its about moeny, and miltiary is evil, well I have my thigns against various miltiary more when its acting in a systme that would be against its purpose IE survival.... so meh...  some reason civil realm is constantly hit with the abosltue wild mentality nad money is poured into other nonsense... so it is a war and attack... copy follow, liquidate.


It's a MAD MAD MAD MAD WORLD BUT I LOVE IT☺


Great marching.Thought I saw  Hunter in the crowd

If anyone dares to remake Stanley Kubrick's genius and beautiful movie Dr. Strangelove this is the only acceptable version of the song I will accept to be used for the ending!

We'll meet again will be good enough for a remake.

This makes me think that We'll Meet Again would be a great song for this channel. <br>Even if Limmy's techno dance cover is a tough act to follow.

In N. Korea, even among the privileged and the chosen, it is impossible to find properly nourished people to man the audience and military parades with...


At 0:04 when Kim turns to the camera I swear you can hear the cameraman piss his pants


i always wonder how those signers got all those medals on their uniform? caught a falling violon before it hit the ground? changed the roll of toilet paper without being ordered to?


Living in isolation inside of the Hermit Kingdom shelters them from reality of understanding how creepy they really are.


It is soo amuzing to see all those uniformed adults singing an American children's song


World politics are so absurd nowadays I can't really tell what's real and what's satirical anymore.


Just the 'pick me up' you need when being strapped to an anti tank missile for not smiling enough at the great leader!.


If there ever was song made for North koreans this'll be it 😂


Those friggin kids with the guitars is something you'd see in a Stephen King movie.


I wonder how Eric Idle feels about this.


The fact no one is talking about is that this actually happened, and is real footage of a kim parade.


North Korea hopes that their film footage will strike fear into our hearts.<br>Outside of NK, we laugh at all the spoofs being made out of this footage.

This has been uploaded on Eric Idle’s birthday. You nailed it dude.


During that pause at the 55 second mark there should have been a distant gunshot edited in.


For a starving nation, they look surprisingly energetic.


It would be interesting to see if they gave everyone in North Korea free options to stay or leave. That would show how good the nation really is. But when the Sunday locums North Korea or completely crumble


Wouldn’t that be “Arways rook at the blight side of rife”?


The State also included a cross, and a doll. Called it “Pin the Capitlaist traior on the X” His name? Brian :D


This makes this even better because I know of the movie “The Interview”


K͠a͠j͠ó͠n k͠o͠n ͠g͠ü͠e͠s͠o͠s


LMAO, they even have The Ministry of Silly Walks, starting at .059!


Your talent is infamous yet a masterpiece in itself.  <br>Like a door you don't want to open; there is some dark liquid seeping from the threshold, the knob is writhing, a faint smell of rot and delicious cinnamon buns, and a faint irregular heartbeat comes from the room, and yet... when you do open the door you behold a majestic horror.  Something that was always there, in our collective.  You tapped into it, and we revolt and applauded you for it.

Oh yeah, and loved this, can't complain

Show the cannon they use when one of the performers messes up !


Aren't those little ones so utterly gorgeous?


It's amazing what you can get a mass group of people to do if you starve beat and persecute them in to blind submission


I love North Korea existing as they give us all a great laugh!

I say what I like and I like what I say!


I like the inclusion of Tim from Grand Illusions at 0:38


Almost as good as Chinese parade dancing to Stayin' Alive.


This is exactly what Eric Idle always wanted


You have to give it to Kim Jong-un. Winning the "Miss Greater Derry" pageant (held by the Miss America organisation) was the greatest PSYOP North Korea ever pulled.


If such parades and orchestras were the keys to developed nations then N Korea and the USSR would have had the moon and mars colonized by the end of the 20th century.


North Korea singing like German Erika marching on South Korea LMAO


🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 GREAT DUB

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 GREAT DUB


"Sir, I have a "Kim Jong Un" on the phone for you? He says he wants to offer you an all-expenses paid vacation to Pyongyang. Do you want me to tell him you're in a meeting or just that you prefer to live?"


Amazing to see people perform under the threat of death and destruction of their families!


It just occurred to me that the 'Share' button is a perfect fit for this video. It promotes Communist awareness and makes this content available for redistribution. Stalin would certainly award you the coveted 'Герой Советского Союза' honor.


and that's exactly why the internet is the best invention of mankind!


Какие же они все счастливые!!! Скоро,очень скоро и мы так заживем.

Уже совсем близко!

Уже совсем близко!


Such a happy video, what is missing is the megatons exploding on all of this to freeze it in time forever ...

Their reward is an extra turnip at breakfast..


Imagine seeing this and not believing how happy they are.


It's sad really,   Good Korean people caught up in a terrible political situation.


When I see the North Koreans in uniform, why do I always have an urge to laugh, laugh, laugh,???


Kim Jong Un enjoys a 100 percent approval rating. He must be doing something right!


We should just get a giant magnet and put it near the commanders of their military, all the medals will fly of them, hitting everyone in the process, crippling their military command.


I know that beard and toy loving smile! It’s the British guy!


It's November and they are coming into their "Happy" season and this rendition proves it!  No wonder Donald Trump and Kim are in love!


Reminded me of the occasion when officials from North Korean Embassy tried to threaten a barber to remove a photo of the great leader which was mocking his haircut 😂


Хорошего человека чучхой не назовут.

Хорошего человека чучхой не назовут.


The great leader will reward you generously. Even if your Dad is at his gulag, he will by your request freed him and one of his chosen prisoner


It would SUCK to be trapped in the middle of that.


I would like to see a Russian “ special Ukrainian operation “ version of the same song .

I would like "It's Only a Movie" for a set of clips from the Russian "Special Operation". That would ruin Family's fifth best song ever.....😉


I don't imagine their madman dictator that Trump "fell in love with" would find this too amusing.


Very clever. This kind of humor is like food in a communist country: not everyone gets it.


Seems the military parade is doing the Silly Walks...


Always look at the mushroom cloud 🫣🥴🤪😗😗😗


1:00 I see that North Korea has a very big Silly Walks ministry!


This was really funny at first, but then I remembered how death camp prisoners in WWII were made to carry huge bags of salt all the way across camp, then told to carry it all the way back, accomplishing nothing in this sadistic form of psychological and physiological torture. Now that's what this video reminds me of... joking about slavery of the north korean population and mocking their nightmare of a reality. <br>Have a great day though! It was funny before I realized it's not actually funny

I had a friend of mine years ago in the Air Force but he was in South Korea with the ROK Marines he said what a bunch of bad ass men they were so they real strong men China's probably the same they don't mix up their military with women and different cultures like here in the West that's why the West is dying and that's what they want the rulers of this world


This honestly made me cry. <br>It's a modern day Holocaust, and no one cares 😭😭

This is how

*The ultimate goal of the PSYCHOPATHIC LEADER is to make everyone equalized equivalents of controlable family members, who can be made to obey their every commend.*


I love how they are glorifying theyr military but no one ever had any combat experience. I don't even think they know what to do If something goes of.


I suppose Kim Jong-un is secretly a fan of Monty Python (and had a secret deal with. Eric Idle)


Yeah, I'd say that's sufficiently ruined. 😆


Boy you really ruined that one! Never ceases to disappoint and always stays true to your motto, ruining everything


If this is how we start the nuclear holocaust it was totally worth it


NK has just the "courage" to coalesce and show what in the West we conceal or make up...


Is it just me, or does it seem like North Korea has pretty decent liberal arts programs. Maybe not much more, but they put their best foot forward in that one area. You know what, nevermind. I could also go on about Osama bin laden's dexterous use of Expedia, but it'd be pretty messed up. Carry on, and don't mind me.


What else can you do but to satire their extremes... it is beyond sad, beyond what is life...


Please do one on Joe Biden and the Marvellous American people. The North Korean leader was spotted successfully negotiating a flight of stairs only two days ago.


Chesty Puller would not even find a bright side to the PROK nor the PROC.


I wonder what North Korea thinks we're saying about them on the internet 🤔


This is how effective advertising and marketing works. For a moment we all forgot the fact that these people had guns to their neck and a slightest HUMAN error can get them killed…. Just like how forced prostitution works, where the client, despite knowing the girl may have been abducted or forcefully sold, still tries to find amusement and makes sure he gets what he want.    Do not be deceived by any of these gimmicks, or the low life American vloggers who goes to North Korea for a three day trips and returns to say that “ it’s not that bad”, only when you get closer to the seed of the mango, will you be able to taste sourness.


N. Korea has not been at war for about 70 years.  How did those officers get so many medals?


This must have been made after Michael Palin went there for a visit!


Let us celebrate by eating a handful of grass.


Those are a suspicious amount of medals when there last war was 70 years ago….


Considering how horrible, awful and dread is the life for a north korean, this is beyond doubt the perfect song for them.<br>Not even the Python would've been so twisted!

This is one way to start a Nuclear war..😂😂😂


0:30 Are those women clones of each other?


Should've used "Under my Thumb" for this.


I dunno how did I get here, but thx for the algorhytm, its simply genious 😂😅😅


The life of Kim will make an interesting movie.


Well, it still holds true - want a good look at yourself? Have a close look at your enemies


The guy who missed the cue to stop whistling was eaten by dogs a few days later.


Performers have a little bit of flesh on their faces because they're in front of the cameras... look at the audience members, sunken in cheeks... :"(


I think Kim is wondering where his Happy Meal & Ho Ho's are!


364 days of rehearsals, perform, then sleep for one night and back to next years rehearsals!


Last year i actually thought this was real!


Do a I want to brake free North Korean one


Plot twist: Imagine if Kim Jung Un actually liked this song 😂😂😂


That girl, 55th from the right in the 122nd line of marching military maids, you know, the brunette in uniform... she's a real banger. Anyone know her name and/ or got her Insta? (Asking for a friend).


From the Department of Whimsy Enforcement 💀💀


The little kids with the guitars were waaay creepy.


I like how there’s random video of a tank there as well


If you make a mistake, you don't eat that day!


If even one solider makes a mistake. Death Penalty.


0:11 you can tell there are guns pointed at them out of frame.


Forced happiness is the only way !!!!!!!!


Can we talk about the cute little girl in red who was very obviously copying Shirley Temple?


Федоров Иван


Ah the cup a tea I needed. Ta for the laff


The new  "It's A Small World" at Disneyland.


🤣🤣🤣 Who ever uploaded this video is having a laugh


Little known fact that Kim Jong-il wrote this song along with most Top 40 hits of the last 50 years1111


There, there. Things may not be so bad after all. Unlike in my own country. Bangladesh is suffering under heatwave after heatwave. I see a parched and thirsty, arid, desert. In thirty years time, who knows what may become of it.


0:38 sneaking grand illusions in there I see


0:38 what is the name of the instrument that does that "wee" sound?


Y al término del concierto, todos fueron ejecutados, 🤣🤣🤣


The frantic clapping in the beginning…. 😢hurts my soul to see pandering like that.


Life could be a sh*t when you look at it


the kids playing the guitar accurately like little robots really freaks me the fuck out every time i see them.


My man's about to be recruited to head N Korea's Department of Propaganda and Public relations.


278 North Koreans were killed in the making of this video after they failed to get the words right first time.


Life's a piece of sh*t when you look at it.


It’s funny. But the moment i saw the kids i was like shiiiiiit sucks to be them damn

Robots stripped of their souls and individuality, by a evil and depraved tyrannical monster…


I'm going to hire someone to deal with Kent.


I hope someday someone will tell them they don't need to do this.  Saddest country ever


Some day the nightmare of North Korea will end.


Where's the original performance audio from?


0:39 why is the slide whistle that toy guy from YouTube😂😂


Man, Such a jolly place, this North Korea. No wonder Santa lives there.

North Korea is such a perfect and happy country that they invented cure for cancer and unicorns live there somehow 😊

please help me

Anyone else expect 0:54 to be followed by a gunshot? Or would that be TOO dark?

Agreed, that would've been dark, but accurate


What do you mean this is not their national anthem?


To be controlled by a man child<br>Talk about control and fear

Nice of us laughing, I'm just curious would any of us survive living the actual hell

The regime is made fun of, not the people. Everybody around the world hopes they eventually will live in the real world.


Monty Python as Propaganda Minister  in another world.


just before you draw your terminal breath....


I wonder how much starvation all those uniforms cost.


Hey Kim Yong Un from Switzerland: are you missing the chocolate? HA HA HAAHAHAAHAAAAAHAAAHAAAAAAAAA


Я купил журнал Корея -<br>Там тоже хорошо

0:55 Kim Jong Un be like: "The beat go off?"


omg how freaky is this.Even those adorable kids are like puppets. American kids could use this type of structure.


Please, new version with Russia and Mr. Putin!


Surprisingly, they use imperialist, reactionary musical instruments.


this is funny and also sad

but, I'd like to add before you draw your terminal breath . . .


Perfect order drenched in nauseating kitsch. Otherwise it's hysterical.


Those kids playing guitars is a very disturbing image.


What's the original soundtrack on the background?


Funny that so many know so much about North Korea without ever being there.....ohhhh maybe the news we trust so much?


i like how they incorporated the korean girl singing the n word clip


That was even better than the "Springtime For Hitler and Germany" vid from Mel Brooks in '67.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1zY1orxW8Aw


...this is dark satire...i'm up for it...but dear lord....


Always looking on the bright side of a nuclear explosion...


Such an utopia this country, everybody coming together and contributing.


wonder how many beetings the kids got to play music


I thought this was real until I read the comments.


Oh, someone please please please send this to Kim Jong. PLEASE!


The only Bright Side of Life must happen when the two Korea's and Japan unify all together for a full democracy freedom Japorea.


Here is a happy, free people who can eat their fill!


0:26 0:32 They seem to love playing instruments that are disproportionately sized compared to their bodies.


Always look on the bright side of life because of dear leader Kim jong un


You say what you want, but nobody loves a musical number like the NK Thanotocracy.


North Koreans must be some of the most optist ic people ever,


R they actually singing in English or was it just computer translated


What a nice, passively threatening, video.


Only a matter of time till this gets mistaken for a real thing and gets reported on.


sad thing. lots of people think this is deep but its not


Simping automatons practicing self preservation.


So everyone there is in the military or a child.


Uniforms look like they're from pound land......


Seems like a very HAPPY country to me.<br>Bit disappointed the Pyongyang Suicide Squad didn't appear. Probably sorting rice.

Just another bizarre day in cloud Cookoo land.


Nobody marches better than the North Koreans!


The creator of the universe created N. Korea to show the celestial version of heaven and he'll waiting for us talking apes. Scary either way. Think about it.


If you don't smile and be happy with enthusiasm then you will be shot, looks like the sing in fear.


and then when they see a nuke coming for them they gonna be singing this song then boom!


The soundtrack Trump hears when he thought he could install his own government.


Im guessing this is the north korean anthem


North Korean "Fly Me To The Moon" from Squid Game


You didn't even have to remix the song. Isn't North Korea wonderful?


Why don't they use rocket for this song?


I guess that those are the people that they feed.


..... OMGAWD ..... 🤭🤣❣🤣🤭   *Smashes that Subscribe button....


I wish Michael palin would visit n Korea again and show Kim jong un this!


The sad part of this video is I am sure N. Korea has a song like this they use to indoctrinate there people! lol


Always look on the brighter side.....of nuclear explosion.


How on Earth can they earn so many medals? Poor people conecto slavery under a crazy ruling family.


This is why they want to nuke us. Because we meme on them.

hmm more goose stepping humanbots cool !


You mean the most beautiful thing you have ever seen. I have to assume.


What's the original song performed by NK

Always look at the bright sides by monty phyton


Никита Казначеев


Their is no bright side if you live in north Korea.

There is, usually when North Korea tests Nukes, it can get very bright.


И не одной Жидовской хари!!!

И не одной Жидовской хари!!!


Well......at least they know what a man and a woman is.


Perfect cringe! 11/10 <br>Will watch again!


Tell me the truth, would you date Kim's sister?


There I ruined it, this is one of my personal favorites and you are right, you ruined it for everybody OK?


@There I Ruined it, what’s it like to be on North Koreas kill list


that little girl in red looks familiar 0:35


Why Am I afraid to change the channel ? 😂 Or else….


On the bright side, Light Pollution is minimal in North Korea. If insects collapse elsewhere else they'll make a lot of money exporting theirs.


Soon after the song ends every country gets bombed and they play this song. Imagine that.😂


kimmy needs some foodlike a bucket of lard..


Life??? You call living in lock-step a life?  Does anyone ever NOT wear a uniform?


@1:14 Why do they have a painting of Seth McFarlane


Still not as good as 'Party Rock'...I've laughed for infinity over that shiat!


Seeing those NK children playing perfectly like that should be impressive, but knowing what NK is like makes it only depressing. You know those poor children went through utter hell to get there.

The NK government needs to die.

I'm sorry, I know this video is supposed to be funny and light-hearted, but I just can't see anything NK-related and not think of the suffering the NK people go through. It's nothing short of heartbreaking.


Next time I see Kim, I must remember to tell him that you are not supposed to march at the salute. If you just copy things without learning how they work, you make mistakes like that.

I must also ask where all the medals came from. They have not been in a battle since ‘53.

Just so you know, your ruined that song for me forever and I loved every second of it. Thank you


They look at bright side becus they are in the darkness


In fact, under the communist system in North Korea, the people have never had freedom, freedom of belief, reflection, and knowledge of the real world. Maybe they have been control by the government for so long so they can obey the government. You see, that's why they're like that, they're really pathetic.<br>     Hope this system ends soon. Only in this way can the people feel real happiness and freedom. Thanks

     Hope this system ends soon. Only in this way can the people feel real happiness and freedom. Thanks

I must give I still haven't learnt thé language of thé country I have decided to Ask thé nationality.


Soon be like this in Britain if some spineless mp/s don’t sort unions and illegal immigrants out.Maybe some of their ways aren’t so bad..No war in Korea since 1953 but medal manufacturers must have a hard time keeping up .


Wouldn't be surprised if this was used as propaganda lol


You know what? I think we ain't doin so bad as a society. The West is pretty dope.

@WaaDoku 【和ァ独】 That's true but it's sadly heading to more and more dichotomous and disordered thinking with Gen Z, especially the left. Socialism never worked and it will be the west's downfall.

@G-Force with a Zoom The fact no one will be executed for making, obtaining or watching this is pretty impressive imo. This has been standard practice for most kingdoms or empires in the past and still is in more countries than one would think. The West is a rare exception. Let's hope it stays that way

Love the north Korean state. Long live the revolution. Down with western sanctions that limit the ability of N Korea to operate as a sovereign nation.

Die Fröhlichkeit muss aber nicht geheuchelt sein - wer von diesen Leuten versteht denn den Text ?

Mit welcher Inbrunst haben wir im verregneten Mitteleuropa in der FlowerPower-Zeit mitgesungen: "It never rains in Southern California" und haben nicht drauf gehört, wie der Text weitergeht  ;-)?
