North Koreaโ€™s Newest Farm, where Plants Grow on Propaganda Music ๐Ÿ‡ฐ๐Ÿ‡ต

I signed up for the Pyongyang International Marathon to be part of the first group of "athletes" allowed into North Korea after the borders slammed shut five years ago. For the past six years, Iโ€™ve dedicated myself to learning Koreaโ€™s historyโ€”both North and Southโ€”which has earned me several awards and the title of Honorary Citizen of Seoul. But my curiosity doesnโ€™t stop at the DMZ. I wanted to go beyond the border, to meet North Koreans face-to-face, speak with them in Korean (as best I could), and see the people behind the regime. This was actually my second visit to North Koreaโ€”my last trip was in December 2018, just months before the borders closed. But this time, it felt different. With my backgroundโ€”living in South Korea, married to a South Korean, and having made videos with North Korean defectorsโ€”I honestly wasnโ€™t sure if they'd even let me in. And if they did, how would they react to me? This is the third video, where we go around famous landmarks in Pyongyang, both old and new. Sometimes the weirdest things happen in North Koreaโ€”and today was one of those days. We visit places like the Mangyongdae Native House, a Taekwondo demonstration, and the Kangdong Greenhouse Complex. I learn that many North Koreans prefer apartment living these days, and that plants apparently grow better with revolutionary propaganda music. Oh, and I spoke with a local on the streetโ€”but she knew exactly what to say. Enjoy! Enjoy the adventure. ์ œ๊ฐ€ ํ‰์–‘๊ตญ์ œ๋งˆ๋ผํ†ค์„ ์‹ ์ฒญํ•œ ์ด์œ ๋Š”, ๊ตญ๊ฒฝ์ด ๋‹ซํžŒ ์ง€ 5๋…„ ๋งŒ์— ์ฒ˜์Œ์œผ๋กœ ๋ถํ•œ ์ž…๊ตญ์ด ํ—ˆ์šฉ๋œ โ€˜์„ ์ˆ˜โ€™ ๊ทธ๋ฃน์— ํฌํ•จ๋˜๊ธฐ ์œ„ํ•ด์„œ์˜€์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋‚จ๊ณผ ๋ถ, ํ•œ๋ฐ˜๋„์˜ ์—ญ์‚ฌ๋ฅผ ์ง€๋‚œ 6๋…„๊ฐ„ ๊พธ์ค€ํžˆ ๊ณต๋ถ€ํ•ด ์™”๊ณ , ๊ทธ ๋…ธ๋ ฅ ๋•๋ถ„์— ๋ช‡๋ช‡ ์ƒ์„ ์ˆ˜์ƒํ•˜๊ณ  ์„œ์šธ์‹œ ๋ช…์˜ˆ์‹œ๋ฏผ์ด๋ผ๋Š” ์นญํ˜ธ๋„ ๋ฐ›๊ฒŒ ๋˜์—ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ํ•˜์ง€๋งŒ ์ €์˜ ํ˜ธ๊ธฐ์‹ฌ์€ DMZ์—์„œ ๋ฉˆ์ถ”์ง€ ์•Š์•˜์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ตญ๊ฒฝ ๋„ˆ๋จธ ๋ถํ•œ ์‚ฌ๋žŒ๋“ค์„ ์ง์ ‘ ๋งŒ๋‚˜๊ณ , ํ•œ๊ตญ์–ด๋กœ ์ด์•ผ๊ธฐ ๋‚˜๋ˆ„๋ฉฐ, ์ฒด์ œ ๋’ค์— ์žˆ๋Š” โ€˜์‚ฌ๋žŒ๋“คโ€™์„ ์ง์ ‘ ๋ณด๊ณ  ์‹ถ์—ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด๋ฒˆ์ด ๋ถํ•œ ๋ฐฉ๋ฌธ์€ ๋‘ ๋ฒˆ์งธ์˜€์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ฒ˜์Œ ๋ฐฉ๋ฌธ์€ 2018๋…„ 12์›”, ๊ตญ๊ฒฝ์ด ๋‹ซํžˆ๊ธฐ ์ง์ „์ด์—ˆ์ฃ . ํ•˜์ง€๋งŒ ์ด๋ฒˆ์—๋Š” ๋ชจ๋“  ๊ฒƒ์ด ๋‹ฌ๋ž์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ํ•œ๊ตญ์— ๊ฑฐ์ฃผํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ๊ณ , ํ•œ๊ตญ์ธ ๋ฐฐ์šฐ์ž๊ฐ€ ์žˆ์œผ๋ฉฐ, ํƒˆ๋ถ๋ฏผ๋“ค๊ณผ๋„ ์ฝ˜ํ…์ธ ๋ฅผ ๋งŒ๋“ค์–ด์˜จ ์ €์˜ ๋ฐฐ๊ฒฝ ๋•Œ๋ฌธ์— ์ž…๊ตญ ์ž์ฒด๊ฐ€ ๋ถˆ๊ฐ€๋Šฅํ•  ์ˆ˜๋„ ์žˆ๊ฒ ๋‹ค๋Š” ์ƒ๊ฐ์ด ๋“ค์—ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋งŒ์•ฝ ๋“ค์–ด๊ฐ„๋‹ค ํ•ด๋„, ๋ถํ•œ ์ธก์ด ์ €๋ฅผ ์–ด๋–ป๊ฒŒ ๋ฐ›์•„๋“ค์ผ์ง€ ์•Œ ์ˆ˜ ์—†์—ˆ์ฃ . ์ด๋ฒˆ ์˜์ƒ์€ ํ‰์–‘์˜ ์œ ๋ช…ํ•œ ๋ช…์†Œ๋“ค์„ ๋Œ์•„๋‹ค๋…€๋ดค์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์˜ค๋ž˜๋œ ๊ณณ๋„ ์žˆ๊ณ , ์ƒˆ๋กœ ์ƒ๊ธด ๊ณณ๋„ ์žˆ์ฃ . ๋ถํ•œ์—์„  ๊ฐ€๋” ์ •๋ง ์ด์ƒํ•œ ์ผ๋“ค์ด ์ผ์–ด๋‚˜๋Š”๋ฐ, ์ด๋‚ ์ด ๋”ฑ ๊ทธ๋Ÿฐ ๋‚ ์ด์—ˆ์–ด์š”. ๋งŒ๊ฒฝ๋Œ€, ํƒœ๊ถŒ๋„ ์‹œ๋ฒ” ๊ณต์—ฐ, ๊ฐ•๋™ ์˜จ์‹ค ๋‹จ์ง€ ๊ฐ™์€ ๊ณณ์„ ๋“ค๋ €๊ณ ์š”. ์š”์ฆ˜ ๋ถํ•œ ์‚ฌ๋žŒ๋“ค์€ ์•„ํŒŒํŠธ์—์„œ ์‚ฌ๋Š” ๊ฑธ ๋” ์ข‹์•„ํ•œ๋‹ค๊ณ  ํ•˜๋”๋ผ๊ณ ์š”. ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  ํ˜๋ช… ์„ ์ „ ์Œ์•…์„ ํ‹€๋ฉด ์‹๋ฌผ์ด ๋” ์ž˜ ์ž๋ž€๋‹ค๋Š” ์–˜๊ธฐ๋„ ๋“ค์—ˆ์–ด์š”. ์•„, ๊ธธ์—์„œ ํ˜„์ง€์ธ๊ณผ ๋Œ€ํ™”๋„ ๋‚˜๋ˆด๋Š”๋ฐ... ๋ฌด์Šจ ๋ง์„ ํ•ด์•ผ ํ•˜๋Š”์ง€ ๋”ฑ ์•Œ๊ณ  ์žˆ๋Š” ๋А๋‚Œ์ด์—ˆ์–ด์š”. ์žฌ๋ฐŒ๊ฒŒ ๋ด์ฃผ์„ธ์š”!
