Vice Guide to North Korea |
|
It's an interesting 3 part series of a journalist's trip to N. Korea. It's a pretty interesting insight into the culture, their propaganda, and how they try to hide the conditions in their country from foreigners. Part 1: Getting into N. Korea http://www.vbs.tv/watch/the-vice-guide-to-travel/vice-guide-to-north-korea-1-of-3Part 2: The Pueblo and the tour http://www.vbs.tv/watch/the-vice-guide-to-travel/vice-guide-to-north-korea-2-of-3Part 3: The People's Library and the Arirang Games http://www.vbs.tv/watch/the-vice-guide-to-travel/vice-guide-to-north-korea-3-of-3

|
is sponsoring them. Are they a front for a larger channel?

2. I don't know. This is honestly the first time I've seen any of their work. |
|
It looks like they were willing to take quite a few risks in N. Korea though. It's pretty interesting stuff.
