This was Ceausescu's second visit to North Korea I think. His first was in 1971 and that visit basicly started the cult of personality that revolved around him in Romania, since he was impressed with the way Kim Il-sung ran North Korea.
And guess who Kim Il-Sung learned it from: Joseph Stalin. Look up the INSANE 1950 Soviet propaganda film "The Fall of Berlin", it literally portrays Stalin as if he was a deity. It was considered so dangerous in terms of making a cult that even Khrushchev and Brezhnev both banned the film for decades IIRC.

Aside from the political killings, the concentration camps, the forced labor, the neglect and abuse of the peasantry leading to chronic mass starvation--------------aside from all these things, one of the regime's greatest crimes has been its attempt to extirpate Christianity. Instead it has substituted an emperor-worship cult not so far removed from Japanese monarcho-fascism as many people would care to believe. Or it might bear comparison with ancient Egypt, with its rigidly stratified society. During the Japanese occupation, Protestant Christians led the moral crusade of resistance, because they served a greater King than the Japanese emperor-------------namely, Jesus Christ. And Pyongyang used to be known as a 'capital' of Asian Christianity. But the political reorganization of the peninsula owing to great-power interference (in which the Kims were Soviet stooges) changed that. Seoul took over that mantle after the conflict of 1950-53. However, churches in the South have been active in helping North Korean defectors in their social adjustment. In turn many defectors from the North have found Christ and are now serving Him. Unfortunately, capitalist/imperialist mainland China 'needs' North Korea as a satellite. For China's sake, it is not allowed to forge its own path.

Indeed. The romanian's horror is exemplified by the "broken wrist/arm/finger" grip employed with the jerry lewis imitation Asian dolt. It reminds me of the same grip used by Larry David when he is coerced into a Christian Scientist prayer circle.
South Korea's GDP was also a mess during right-wing military rule. Then they turned around and boom, North's economy became too strained after the USSR collapsed.
@@SilverPlaqueVII well that is pretty much false. Romania is a corrupt country, not a poor one. The country has plenty of natural gas/oil/good agriculture, and it is a beautiful country with a lot of wonderful forms of relief. And yeah, the NATO and EU have big strategic interests in terms of Romania, because of its location. That's why they chose to add it.
@@GabrielDima98 You can trade with a county just as easily outside an alliance. ‘Strategic interests’ have nothing to do with it. Romania chose to add itself, as it feared Russian aggression. Not just because Russia invaded Ukraine, either. Russia clipped off part of Rumania in the transnistria region, and there are Russian troops there right now, maintaining this nominally neutral state in Russias orbit. Russia is currently telling lies about ‘nato encirclement’. They brought it on themselves.
I just can't get over the fact that North Korean, well the North Korean Government dispises America so much... yet in this parade they driving Lincoln American-Made cars... Ha!
Jason Arkwright this is the seventies. DPRK policies at this time wasnt as american hating as it is now, since theyre still thinking abt their economy and the south. when the USSR collapsed they looked at the US for ... blame?
They could produce a great mass choreographed show, but had to rely on western countries for better consumer goods. The masses got the inferior goods produced in Soviet, Chinese and East Block countries while the leaders got the superior goods from the west. In the case of the Lincoln's, I am guessing that despite the tensions between America and North Korea, Kim just liked this car and had to have it, given that they were used 33 years later to carry his body in his funeral to me confirms this. Nixon gave Brezhnev a Lincoln a few years earlier, perhaps this influenced him. He could have more easily procured Soviet ZIL limos or even Mercedes Benz. It is rumored that he procured them illegally through a Ford dealer in Japan.
@@captainnovolin While it made strategic sense for the Soviets to duplicate a B-36, I seriously doubt that they would have duplicated a Lincoln Continental. The amount of effort required to copy a car that was easily bought on the American economy to produce a handful of limos would make no sense and be counter productive. Even if successful, all they would have accomplished is further projected the image that American design and technology was so superior that they chose to duplicate it rather than create their own. It looks like the cars were stripped of all their markings that identified them as Lincoln's. The cars were probably bought legitimately in other markets and then smuggled.
3:39 honestly that Securitate captain should just stand up, unholster his service pistol, and come back to rule Romania as though nothing ever happened
Rocools,North Korea had food then because the USSR supplied it. The DPRK fell into starvation and deprivation when the USSR started cutting exports to North Korea in the late 80's
Como espectáculo en si, es una maravilla. Sin ordenadores ni autotune ni efectos especiales. Pero menudo nivel pusieron, como para superarlo en la siguiente visita 😂
Ceausescu should never have set foot into China and North Korea. He learned bad things (i.e. cult of personality on steroids!) from over there. His eventual demise has finally begun ...... :D
When Ceausescu was forced to flee Bucharest, his plan was to get to North Korea. Had he succeeded, he would have been a broken man by the time he got to the Hermit Kingdom . Ceausescu's reception might have consisted of a single limo taking him to a hotel without power/water in an industrial part of Pyongyang followed by dinner of a plate of cold kimchi with his North Korean minders.
Edited this: After seeing this clip and enjoying on how North Korea back then could really hold a big damn show/event or literally pulled up a big circus like this in the middle of Pyongyang just for a damn state visit, It's really amazing that North Koreans would sing almost every fucking song that you would like to play for them and they still got it almost as perfectly when it comes to the pronounciation (it's as point). No matter what even if they damn live under bad and old conditions being oppressed by that actual god awful Kim regime that doesn't even represent communism, they'll do it for you even if they are oppressed or no matter what damn thing you throw at them but you know what? Maybe any type of damn thing they would do (which kind of makes me remind myself that this sounds like some kind of slavery but-). Likewise on what I said, it reminds me of a quote somewhere that i forgot and now I'm gonna steal it. It's something as goes like this, "Even on the darkest times, we still try to put a smile on our faces" And lastly though, damn could they plan some event like this then back then huh. How hardcore Bye -Thomas
I would say that the North had an early start compared to the South. The Kim Il Sung dictatorship quickly swept away any dissent and had the advantage of controlling the industrialized North from the start. By contrast, the South was plagued by political factionalism and lacked of industries. But once the Park Jung Hee regime took over the South, the South started to industrialize at a breakneck speed, but it was not until the '80s when everyone could feel the change in the South.
Waterflux wasn’t Park Chung he as big a self promoting despot as “Kim il sung” (he actually killed the real Kim il sung and stole his name. Not that park Chung he went that far lol) ?

Apparently this is when Nicolae went off the rails. He was so impressed with north Korea that he undid all his reforms and tried to recreate NK in Romania.
@@hueyfreeman1983 starvation, energy rationing, no hot water, at the mercy of the secret police, no rights to speak of. I'm willing to bet you're a Starbucks Marxist, one of the idiots who complain about capitalism on your iPhone while sipping on your latte.
@@hueyfreeman1983 Famine, No Rights, Government taking everything, Personality Cult, No Contact with the outside world, this was communism in Romania. What you are saying is propaganda (the only ones that are somewhat true are the first ones, but they are nothing to the abuse Romanians suffered at the hands of the communists). If you want to know the truth, speak with people that lived under communist regimes and ask them how life was for them.
In the 70's north korea was the same as south korea, in an economical point of view: they had the same GDP. In 1978 (when Ceaucescu went in Pyongyang) the DPRK just began to lose its "economical power" which made everybody surprised (especially NATO). People trusted their country at this time, the trusted in the revolution and the power of the USSR. As communist militants (most of the opposants could go to the south during the Korean War and the retreat of the US Army because of China), they didn't believe in "Capitalist Propaganda", and that's why people here aren't actors.
Apparently Kim Il Sung was physically sick with worry when Ceaucescu was executed, because he had to come to terms with the fact that the same thing could happen to him.
Two ruthless dictators met in Pyongyang, and Ceausescu was deeply impressed by Kim Il Sung`s personality cult. And Ceausescu mimiced Kim`s cult of personality. But it provoked antipathy among Rumanian people, and his regime collapsed.
Those Lincolns were marketed as being in commemoration of the 200Th anniversary of the American Revolution. How did they smuggle a stretch Lincoln? It was later used as a hearse. I saw the NK ambassador to the UN in one in New Jersey. All the nice used cars for sale in NJ and he was riding in a piece of garbage. Koreand own service stations so it might get interesting if the ambassador showed up at one.
The difference between romanians a koreeans is that when romanians run out of food they murdered their dictator on Christmas day , koreeans when they ran out out food ,they switched to eat bark from the tree and grass and kept their dictator !!!
That is so true. So let me ask you then who is the better one here the one who killed due to hunger and starvation or the one who went to different paths to keep the cause of starvation alive?

+loan pena Best not to speak too lightly of eating grass and drinking bark tea! You might come off as insensitive to the suffering of others. They didn't 'keep' their dictator; they were forced to keep him. Undoubtedly Romanian methods of terror and brainwashing were less efficient, and/or they suffered less from geographical, economic, and cultural isolation. Try looking at a map. People from different Eastern European countries could cross borders. I saw it when I was there, during the late 1970s. Ascribing such things to 'national differences' is pretty simple-minded. Human nature is consistent across the board. People don't enjoy being abused. At the same time, they can't help abusing one another, because they are sinners by nature. 'For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God' (Romans 3:23).
@@jesusislord4135 You are right in a way, however diets in the East of Asia are more shaped by feast or famine than the diets of modern Europe, even the poorer countries such as Romania.

the visit that inspired Ceausescu to make Romania into a dictatorship
Rann B Romania was already a dictatorship under craucescu and his predecessor (who was a true Stalinist), but this this trip inspired ceaucescu to transform Romania into a juche style, inward-looking, anti-internationalist state, like N. Korea, Albania, or China post-sino soviet split and pre-death of mao
@Gemcitykid Well, Romania can transition to a true democracy. It'll probably take a lot of hard work and time to do it, though, as well as learning from other functioning democracies how to make it work.

I guess that on 20 May 1978, 20% of North Korea GDP was depleted for this big show.
The balance went to the military
South Korea's GDP was also a mess during right-wing military rule. Then they turned around and boom, North's economy became too strained after the USSR collapsed.
So then, he came back to Romania, built the Palace of the Parliament, starved the whole country and died
And Romania, as one of the poorest nations in Europe, went on to become a NATO and EU member aligning it with the US who is at Russia’s doorstep.
@@SilverPlaqueVII well that is pretty much false. Romania is a corrupt country, not a poor one. The country has plenty of natural gas/oil/good agriculture, and it is a beautiful country with a lot of wonderful forms of relief. And yeah, the NATO and EU have big strategic interests in terms of Romania, because of its location. That's why they chose to add it.
@@GabrielDima98 You can trade with a county just as easily outside an alliance. ‘Strategic interests’ have nothing to do with it.
Romania chose to add itself, as it feared Russian aggression. Not just because Russia invaded Ukraine, either.
Russia clipped off part of Rumania in the transnistria region, and there are Russian troops there right now, maintaining this nominally neutral state in Russias orbit.
Russia is currently telling lies about ‘nato encirclement’. They brought it on themselves.

Che accoglienza, ordine. pulizia, disciplina degne di di un grande paese e di un popolo meraviglioso
I just can't get over the fact that North Korean, well the North Korean Government dispises America so much... yet in this parade they driving Lincoln American-Made cars... Ha!
Jason Arkwright this is the seventies. DPRK policies at this time wasnt as american hating as it is now, since theyre still thinking abt their economy and the south. when the USSR collapsed they looked at the US for ... blame?
They could produce a great mass choreographed show, but had to rely on western countries for better consumer goods. The masses got the inferior goods produced in Soviet, Chinese and East Block countries while the leaders got the superior goods from the west. In the case of the Lincoln's, I am guessing that despite the tensions between America and North Korea, Kim just liked this car and had to have it, given that they were used 33 years later to carry his body in his funeral to me confirms this. Nixon gave Brezhnev a Lincoln a few years earlier, perhaps this influenced him. He could have more easily procured Soviet ZIL limos or even Mercedes Benz. It is rumored that he procured them illegally through a Ford dealer in Japan.
@@captainnovolin While it made strategic sense for the Soviets to duplicate a B-36, I seriously doubt that they would have duplicated a Lincoln Continental. The amount of effort required to copy a car that was easily bought on the American economy to produce a handful of limos would make no sense and be counter productive. Even if successful, all they would have accomplished is further projected the image that American design and technology was so superior that they chose to duplicate it rather than create their own. It looks like the cars were stripped of all their markings that identified them as Lincoln's. The cars were probably bought legitimately in other markets and then smuggled.
Lincoln: the car for evil Communist dictators!
@@captainnovolin They are definitely Lincolns.

Ya gotta hand it to the North Koreans, 3:17 they can put on one hell of a half-time show.
Ceausescu should never have set foot into China and North Korea. He learned bad things (i.e. cult of personality on steroids!) from over there. His eventual demise has finally begun ...... :D
This almost looks like a Disney production.
When Ceausescu was forced to flee Bucharest, his plan was to get to North Korea. Had he succeeded, he would have been a broken man by the time he got to the Hermit Kingdom . Ceausescu's reception might have consisted of a single limo taking him to a hotel without power/water in an industrial part of Pyongyang followed by dinner of a plate of cold kimchi with his North Korean minders.
It’s like an Olympics opening ceremony.
I gotta give credit where credit is due. They sure as hell know how to make a welcoming gesture.
Edited this: After seeing this clip and enjoying on how North Korea back then could really hold a big damn show/event or literally pulled up a big circus like this in the middle of Pyongyang just for a damn state visit, It's really amazing that North Koreans would sing almost every fucking song that you would like to play for them and they still got it almost as perfectly when it comes to the pronounciation (it's as point). No matter what even if they damn live under bad and old conditions being oppressed by that actual god awful Kim regime that doesn't even represent communism, they'll do it for you even if they are oppressed or no matter what damn thing you throw at them but you know what? Maybe any type of damn thing they would do (which kind of makes me remind myself that this sounds like some kind of slavery but-). Likewise on what I said, it reminds me of a quote somewhere that i forgot and now I'm gonna steal it. It's something as goes like this,
"Even on the darkest times, we still try to put a smile on our faces"
And lastly though, damn could they plan some event like this then back then huh. How hardcore

A modest welcome to the head of a small country thousands of miles away...
I would say that the North had an early start compared to the South. The Kim Il Sung dictatorship quickly swept away any dissent and had the advantage of controlling the industrialized North from the start. By contrast, the South was plagued by political factionalism and lacked of industries. But once the Park Jung Hee regime took over the South, the South started to industrialize at a breakneck speed, but it was not until the '80s when everyone could feel the change in the South.
Maybe they could organise something similar for Brexit
Waterflux wasn’t Park Chung he as big a self promoting despot as “Kim il sung” (he actually killed the real Kim il sung and stole his name. Not that park Chung he went that far lol) ?
@ByronMH in that time(1978 the DPRK didn t have famine, they lived of the USSR..when USSR vanished in 1991, they started to go hungry, because they arent self-sufficient.
Which eventually started to build nukes.

I'm Romanian, born a little after the fall of communism. I have grown up with stories from that period from my parents. Seeing this gave me the worst chills I have ever had. I never lived through the insanity of communism, but my parents did.
But you must admit this is very artistic and appealing of any government with a heart warming effect. NOT SUPPORTING WHAT THE GOVERNMENTS DID JUST AN AMAZING SIGHT!
Free education, guaranteed employment and pension, subsidised housing and free sports training, sounds like your parents went through hell, i dont know how they coped
Apparently this is when Nicolae went off the rails. He was so impressed with north Korea that he undid all his reforms and tried to recreate NK in Romania.
@@hueyfreeman1983 starvation, energy rationing, no hot water, at the mercy of the secret police, no rights to speak of. I'm willing to bet you're a Starbucks Marxist, one of the idiots who complain about capitalism on your iPhone while sipping on your latte.
@@hueyfreeman1983 Famine, No Rights, Government taking everything, Personality Cult, No Contact with the outside world, this was communism in Romania. What you are saying is propaganda (the only ones that are somewhat true are the first ones, but they are nothing to the abuse Romanians suffered at the hands of the communists). If you want to know the truth, speak with people that lived under communist regimes and ask them how life was for them.
In the 70's north korea was the same as south korea, in an economical point of view: they had the same GDP. In 1978 (when Ceaucescu went in Pyongyang) the DPRK just began to lose its "economical power" which made everybody surprised (especially NATO). People trusted their country at this time, the trusted in the revolution and the power of the USSR. As communist militants (most of the opposants could go to the south during the Korean War and the retreat of the US Army because of China), they didn't believe in "Capitalist Propaganda", and that's why people here aren't actors.
Apparently Kim Il Sung was physically sick with worry when Ceaucescu was executed, because he had to come to terms with the fact that the same thing could happen to him.
Thank god it didnt happen...
Two ruthless dictators met in Pyongyang, and Ceausescu was deeply impressed by Kim Il Sung`s personality cult. And Ceausescu mimiced Kim`s cult of personality. But it provoked antipathy among Rumanian people, and his regime collapsed.
I wish I was welcomed like this in school ;)
Those Lincolns were marketed as being in commemoration of the 200Th anniversary of the American Revolution. How did they smuggle a stretch Lincoln? It was later used as a hearse.

Best not to speak too lightly of eating grass and drinking bark tea! You might come off as insensitive to the suffering of others.
They didn't 'keep' their dictator; they were forced to keep him. Undoubtedly Romanian methods of terror and brainwashing were less efficient, and/or they suffered less from geographical, economic, and cultural isolation. Try looking at a map. People from different Eastern European countries could cross borders. I saw it when I was there, during the late 1970s.
Ascribing such things to 'national differences' is pretty simple-minded. Human nature is consistent across the board. People don't enjoy being abused. At the same time, they can't help abusing one another, because they are sinners by nature. 'For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God' (Romans 3:23).

You are right in a way, however diets in the East of Asia are more shaped by feast or famine than the diets of modern Europe, even the poorer countries such as Romania. Who in modern Europe eats carnivorous animals such as cats or dogs through choice? Pickled cabbage may form the basis of both Korean kimchi and German sauerkraut- but the modern German diet is more like the American or English diets than ever before.
@bubadebub Songs #1 and #3 are both Romanian songs as well. I dont know which songs they are (a user named @lenin502 has an account with a wealth of Ceaucescu-related songs, so I'll research it), but it fits into the alternating pattern of Ceaucescu/Kim il-Sung songs.
