why every place is so quiet
Jaka can you please start putting full subtitles on your videos, it would help clarify alot of things for everyone. And I love your videos please keep up the good work.
I'm glad for the English subtitles. I like knowing what people are talking about.
You are very brave for buying refrigerated seafood in NK as there are frequent power cuts, even in the capital.
3 staff to catch a few fish....Can tell they don't do that everyday ;)
Cocoklogi 😅
Only rich person can buy fresh Fish and live in tank..that way 3 staff don't that everyday....
If you NK from poor family and live in Vilages...youre son or daughter go to city for Work 4-6mon just ony 2 week in village.
Wow really captain obvious
Indeed.
they're also dainty pretty girls so they're awkward doing work like that
Gloves and insulated snow suits are worn indoors. No heating system.
perhaps that's to keep the fish cool?
where do you have heating in stores? you must waste so much food
@@hivemind010 well all food stores in cold places have heating (perhaps with the exception of in North Korea), because customers don't want to be walking around at -20 degrees to do their groceries.
you can see multiples air condicioners instaled on the walls.
It's funny how their are so few customers at these stores that they can get away with the extremely inefficient layout and procedure.
The real beauty of korea without plastic surgery :)
Yes North Koreans are so beautiful.
Video is real. Windows XP on the cashiers computer. All I need to know.
Paying in 3 different currencies is wild
Your videos are fascinating!!!
These videos are fascinating and in their own way, heartwarming. I hope things get better for the DPRK.
The female employees are all nice and even welcomed the foreigners. I didn't expect she would asked you "do you speak korean" or something like that, then you said "jogeum jogeum" (a little) hahaha. It's nice and interesting to see on how north koreans socialize on daily life. Once again thanks for the video! (btw jaka parker orang indonesia bgt lah, mikir-mikir kalo belanja ga asal beli tapi yg perlu2 aja, meskipun sebenernya dompet masih keliatan penuh wkwk)
CandyCruise Duile you do know these videos are north korean propaganda right? They pay this guy to do this channel to show a fake side of North Korea....this isn't how the majority of North Korea is.
Daily Scratcher Well he's an Idiot, lol, feigning ignorance is one of Indonesian's trait.
Lo mikir dulu isi komen lo, kwkw.
Senzaki S lo mikir dulu isi komen lo... gw balikin kata2 lo
CandyCruise Duile lol, buta lo gabaca berita. Kesian gw, cocok lu disitu.
Start feeding ur brains fact, watch ted's video for starter :).
tiap belanja,pasti tempatnya sepi terus, hmpir jarang pengunjungnya, tempatnya rapi, bersih, barang2nya lengkap, pelayanannya ramah, yg kerja cewek semua, dn tempat pembayarannya pke kalkulator..
ada yg bisa jelasin?
Semua pekerja di pyongyang di gaji pemerintah bro, tdk ada yg swasta, posisi pekerja di atur pemerintah, populasi penduduk di pyongyang pun di batasi, intinya hnya pekerja di pyongyang, yg berinterkasi dgn warga asing dan pejabat lokal, penduduk distrik lain otomatis terisolasi
baju jaket karyawan nya biru semua😅
apa brngnya terutama yg makanan gak kadaluarsa soalnya koq pengunjungnya hampir tak ada😀
I still want to check this country out, I am sure you had the ability to travel freely, but still would be worth the experience.
Melihat semua video tentang kota pyongyang, sangat sesuai dgn yg saya baca selama ini,
Semua pekerja pyongyang di gaji pemerintah, dan posisi kerja pun di atur, jg populasi penduduk pyongyang di batasi, hanya penduduk pyongyang yg bisa berinteraksi dgn diplomat dan turis, distrik lain nya auto ter isolasi
All the stores have lots of food but never see any other customers ever. How old is that frozen stuff? Also wierd seeing American money being used over there.
I think they use Euro 🙄
Talk about fresh Live fish! I do realized that almost all their stores look Empty but clean!!!!
The stores are for privileged people only.
Beli ikan aja bersih banget itu tempat..
Kalo diindonesia kadang gak cuman ikanya yang berenang, yang beli juga bisa kalo mo ngojay, aernya juga jernih banget lagi disini..
I would love English subtitles!
Thank you very much for uploading all these videos!
thanks.. please enjoy..
+Jaka Parker are black people liked in North Korea cause I am black
kaneki san I don't think there are many black people there. Close to zero. But I don't think they are unliked, but maybe you would be looked at a lot.
Lol
2 dollars for 1 kilo fish!? COME ON AND SHE SAYS ITS EXPENSIVE...oh wait i forgot the north korean economy isnt great ;/
Depend what kind of fish
On a side note, if anyone has the stomach, a book to read: Aquariums of Pyongyang. It's something I can't forget.
It looks frozen since 2010
You wish you could go back to 2010
@@johnhighway7399 nah it sucked i failed 8th grade
North korea looks like a military research base everywhere you go.
indeed
Thats because it basicly is....put it this way no country would want too get into a war with NK
stop asking this guy to add subtitle, cuz he doesn't even know enough korean to make one.
He couldn't really speak English all that well either, so if he can barely speak either language, then ppl needs to stop asking for translations.
Hi Jaka,Love the channel,I take it you are not in DPRK anymore? Do you have plenty more uploads for us though from DPRK? John
the curtain in entering door is to keep cold air out. they dont have heater inside store.
To me the most interesting part of this is the fish in the tank next to the 1 he buys from. I'm curious about what species of sturgeon they are ? Had 1 in a tank myself for a couple of years and they are neat critters.
I like this market. It has nice aquarium use for selling fish
This channel is very inspiring, I hope this channel will build more in the future, greetings from Indonesia, sir
Dia juga orang indo
Orng Indonesia koq dia memang 🤣
He is Indonesian too
hey i really like your video, but can you add the subtitle so i could understand what are you just say because sometime i have wonder about it. thank you :-)
u can see why there is not customer, except our ambassador , people cant afford to go supermarket
Well for starters theres no one fucking there. ever. Except of course the women that work there who look suspect.
Locals are not allowed to these stores, at least not regular people. Nor could they afford anything anyways.
friendly girls at least. First Ive heard laugh.
I have watched a few of these videos that Jaka Parker has put out, why does everyone wear coats inside, is there no heat in the buildings?
In this video you can see small AC units on the walls and you can hear them whirring away. They look like small units meant for smaller areas but there are 3 of them that I saw. I don't know how well these would work but I noticed there was a blanket covering the entrance which suggests that the heat is easily sucked out of the store from people opening the door. Also North Korea is known to have power outages often so there would be times where these AC units wouldn't work and there would be no heating at all like you said. But of course there are alternative means for heating that don't require electricity such as kerosene, but I really don't know that much detail about North Korea. When it comes to people wearing coats on the inside I think that would be normal for regular shoppers but for the employees I'm guessing they feel cold inside of the stores because the small AC units aren't effective or their jobs require them to go outside or be in cold areas of the store such as freezers considering it is a food store.
That looked like a really busy food store, not. There is lots of information about NK and Jaka Parker shows a lot. It really is a sad situation really.
indeed...no heat , no hot water in the buildings...
With the frequent power outages in one day I doubt they have proper heating systems.
How much for the fish out of the green tank with a dead fish floating at the top? 2 USD for 1 kilo? What a great deal!
A quienes les venden ? Siempre están vacíos los super o no es para cualquier persona ?!
Solo puede comprar la gente con dinero pero alli hay mas pobres que ricos=(
pasar ikan nya bersih kyk jualan es krim. ama gak gitu rame.
di indo pasar ikan udeh becek , ber jejer2 , rame yg beli sampe desak2 an
10:00 hidden voice
Andika Dwi ikan nya juga udah di es berhari hari kalo di sini
Tergantung lu beli dmn
Very neat, thanks for the video as we don't usually get to see stuff like this. How were you allowed to film? From what I understand its usually not allowed?
+IcefixIsNOTHere Wrong
Luckily jaka family is indonesian so i can understand 😅
We need subtitles so we can figure out what is being said.
The thing I realize in Nk is,There no Male worker and use black plastic.
i wonder why there are NO Korean clients in those stores full of products - conclusion: these stores are for SHOW with exorbitant prices that only foreigners AND party officials can afford.
Konstruktivist Neo even all of that fish is an actors
dharmawan raka and your comment is like an actor
Locals are not allowed to these stores, they are only meant for the privileged, mainly foreign diplomats etc, I suppose...
6:49 she said, "Wow, we brought only big fish in the fishbowl." in a very friendly manner.
That's pretty exotic. I've never even thought to buy fresh fish from a shop like that. "Fresh" to me always meant it was killed in a factory recently, not provided to me still alive lol. I haven't seen actual fresh fish for sale, but they were always too expensive for me to even consider buying one.
Come to Indonesia lot of fresh fish and even chicken
We sell and buy fresh fish like this in Vietnam too.
I suppose that's not a thing in western countries? In Indonesia, even supermarkets have things like this, they put live fish in a tank for display, you could choose the fish that you want then the staff would kill and cut them, even grill the fish for free if you wish.
i hope nk becomes a free country during my life time, those people deserve to live a normal life
Its interesting the way they always convert into USD. They never do it directly. But they always do it.
06:01 Ritter Sport Chocolate. THE BEST Chocolate in the World...amazing they got that there in North Korea
Shirin Aparte the problem is no one has $4 for a candy bar. That's why there's no people there
it´s a pity....everyone should get a taste of that chocolate
I dont know who are you but you have a lot privilege there
It’s cuz he’s a diplomat if he wasn’t ain’t no store for him
Everything about N Korea is so shady
show us the traditional market
Coordinates: 39° 1'37.49"N 125°44'6.63"E
not gunna lie this looks better than a walmart with fish in the back
lool
Me están mostrando una korea distinta a lo que cuentan?!
Awesome video!
thank you for your video
do you always visit store at odd times or N Koreans on diet. store's always empty
I think it's the former. He did say that he only go out when they're off from work so probably during weekends? Maybe most of the locals there prefer to stay at home on weekends.
@@kusuma2664 no . It's because nk citizens can't afford normal things and they already consider this as a luxury
The whole video seems kinda fishy to me.
he was buying fish what would you expect? Lol
;)
👏👏👏👏
7:00 "Eh si nurul mah" 😂😂😂
It's really funny. They claim they are anti-US and they somehow accept US dollar. Their anti-US campaign sounds so legit!
who claim that only usa makes bs storys on fox newes
you live better than most ppl on earth.
Thank you for posting. Just a few questions regarding your videos:
1. How there are only one or a max of 2 people in stores whenever wherever you go...
2. Parking lots are also normally empty with 1 or 2 cars...
you know because you know
1. Chances are, they are either there just for show in case a foreigner that works in the embassy came in. OR they are one of the few lucky folks that is within the confines of the “elites” and can pay for the high prices and is loyal to the government.
2. Again, that might just be for show and could be inoperable. OR OR OR….. could be for someone that, again, is part of the elite.
These shops are not for locals, but for diplomatic personnel like the author of the video
Behind that district I've always noticed giant private estates. Can you confirm if this is true? They are in a wooded area. You can see the houses from satellite.
Most fun those ladies have had in months.
if not mistaken, only certain people or privilege that can be to shop in NK
Wow it seems so peaceful
Since you're back in your country, do you still have stuff to upload from NK?
yup ;-)
A glimpse of N.K owe you. enjoyed vid many thanks.
could you ever tip these people, let them keep the change or are they not allowed?
Absolute Muppet that's a good question.
275 PESOS FOR A KILO OF TILAPIA??
Si!
number of cars parked outside no customers inside ? who drove the cars to parking lot?
Chill dudes, to everyone having concern about this guy's hired to advertise how cool NK is, that's normal that the country treats foreigners as privileged because they want to show the outside world they're normal and as abundant as any outside countries, so it's not like he was paid or hired by the NK govrt to show only the good side of NK but he's only allowed to be privileged and live under a good condition. Pyongyang
is the best city that only North Koreans with high songbun and foreigners are allowed to live in there, it's like the holy city of the country therefore it's impossible for you guys to see any poor people or whatever terrible you're expecting from these videos, sorry for my terrible english guys.
Your English is better than most of my fellow English speakers :D
you do know the lowest rank in North Korea are criminals and capitalist right. hence everything the West is.
also I'm pretty sure men have to join the military at the age of 15.
it's probably one of the highest ranks in society.
and all the rural areas are actually farm workers, you know the thing that every countries has.
love it how they make foreigners pay in foreign money. its one of the few ways they get foreign money in the country
It is against the law in North Korea for a foreigner to use local currency....
Yup!
That might be true but he paid his bill in a combination of USD ($4), Euro (€1), and Choson Won (₩4000). He didn't have enough USD so he gave them $4 USD, then tried to pay the rest in Euros (€1.45) but only had a €1 coin, so he gave them the €.45 balance in North Korean Choson Won (the ₩4000 he gave them), so they obviously have access to local Won.
lastand09 Non-Nationals don't the exchange rate would had covered it in local currency since the hard cash is more important.
three people to serve the only buyer in an uninhabited store, only en KN
i loved when he asked which one of ice cream his daughter wanted and there was only 1 option available from 9.
can u do a vid showing the underground market in north korea
weird seeing more employees than customers in every shop you go to.
What kind of fish was it?
Tilapia fish, endemic to Asia
I find it interesting that all these businesses have computers at the register yet they calculate cost on a simple old school huge calculator.
They use it to convert the dollar paid by the customer. They accept foreign currency.
They look up conversions and do the math on calculator. Not that hard to imagine them doing. A lot of people in the us still do that. An 'old school' calculator is nice to have instead of using a calculator app on the pc.
So clean!
Thank you!
The american doller wins everytime
Opps dropped a fish no employee of the month for you!
mas jaka, mau tanya sebenernya mata uang korut itu apa?. dia bisa terima euro dan dolar?.
Winter outside, clean floor inside...I bet you two were the first customers that day (or the only ones).
It's from the tourist district. So yes, probably the only ones.
wow are those sturgeons?
Subtitle nya suka lupa ni admin.
bang jaka,,memang di korut boleh transaksi dengan dollar bang?
thanks infonya
Those bottles were perfectly set, i mean, did they know he wanted to take the tilapia?
How come you never close the refrigerator door freezer doors you always walk away? It's just a pet peeve of mine it's like turning the light out when you leave a room
Or lifting the toilet seat to take a piss......
@@mgaeeeee9150 I prefer the feeling of pissing on a closed toilet
I noticed he does this in another video too, it's rude to just walk away
he expects to be closed by someone else and also he doesn't stop the car for people to cross the street. he's not treating the regular north korean citizen with respect.
Di korut kyknya bebas polusi udara gitu,tmpatnya bersih sepi tenang,gak ada yg mabok2n,cewek2nya natural gak kyk tetangganya oplas semua,tp ya itu sangking naturalnya tu negara jd jadul dlm keadaannya..
Ya bagus natural lah bro, dia cantik hasil ciptaan Tuhan bukan ciptaan dokter 😅
For being "fresh" does tanks need to be cleaned..
It is so interesting that the US dollar is accepted.
The poor fish was gasping for air in that bag
I see you don't know how fresh fish buying works LMFAO. It is the same everywhere in the world
3 girls for one kilo fish...hardcore..2 dolar. And Mr.Parker is not patient. ;)
Is it legal to use foreign currencies for north koreans?
Korut keren
this is kinda like when you have young children and they play shop . with fake merchandise or empty boxes and fake money.
This place is interesting how its shielded from view outside. Clearly he has access to products and stores that the residents don't for whatever reason. He indicates that foreigners and diplomats can get to many things others can't. On the flip side though, the people walking the streets and working don't look to be deprived. Hard to say from videos but...they are living no problem. Less police in the streets than you see in america and very low crime so...hard to say it's so bad really. Just weird versus our way of life. If you were born into that though, you probably wouldn't think it was bad at all.
brainwashing propaganda is telling the people country is on top of the world in economy and military power. Maybe thats why they seems relaxed.
Michal Spisak heheh tell that to syria..better tobe brainwashed in believing your country is a best one instead of getting bombed everyday.
Pyongyang is a wealthier more well off part of the country. Where people live mostly normal lives. It's the country side and poorer villages where all the human suffering is. That's why tours don't go through there, you mostly stay in Pyongyang, that's what the state wants you to see.
thats because this is the privileged part of North Korea. the people in this video probably aren't starving badly like people living outside the capital city.
thank you doe your video,
your welcome.. people in your country are very friendly ;-) thanks
Looks cool.
