North Korea ( listen), officially the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK; Chosŏn'gŭl: 조선민주주의인민공화국; hancha: 朝鮮民主主義人民共和國; MR: Chosŏn Minjujuŭi Inmin Konghwaguk), is a country in East Asia, in the northern part of the Korean Peninsula. The name Korea is derived from the Kingdom of Goguryeo, also spelled as Koryŏ. The capital and largest city is Pyongyang. North Korea shares a land border with China to the north and northwest, along the Amnok (Yalu) and Tumen rivers, and a small section of the Tumen River also forms a border with Russia to the northeast. The Korean Demilitarized Zone marks the boundary between North Korea and South Korea.
Korea was annexed by the Empire of Japan in 1910. After the Japanese surrender at the end of World War II in 1945, Korea was divided into two zones by the United States and the Soviet Union, with the north occupied by the Soviets and the south by the Americans. Negotiations on reunification failed, and in 1948 two separate governments were formed: the Democratic People's Republic of Korea in the north, and the Republic of Korea in the south. An invasion initiated by North Korea led to the Korean War (1950–53). Although the Korean Armistice Agreement brought about a ceasefire, no official peace treaty was ever signed. Both states were accepted into the United Nations in 1991.
North is a noun, adjective, or adverb indicating direction or geography. North is one of the four cardinal directions or compass points. It is the opposite of south and is perpendicular to east and west.
The word north is related to the Old High German nord, both descending from the Proto-Indo-European unit ner-, meaning "down" (or "under"). (Presumably a natural primitive description of its concept is "to the left of the rising sun".)
The Latin word borealis comes from the Greek boreas "north wind, north", which, according to Ovid, was personified as the son of the river-god Strymon, the father of Calais and Zetes. Septentrionalis is from septentriones, "the seven plow oxen", a name of Ursa Maior. The Greek arktikos is named for the same constellation, and is the derivation of the English word "Arctic".
Other languages have sometimes more interesting derivations. For example, in Lezgian, kefer can mean both 'disbelief' and 'north', since to the north of the Muslim Lezgian homeland there are areas formerly inhabited by non-Muslim Caucasian and Turkic peoples. In many languages of Mesoamerica, "north" also means "up". In Hungarian the word for north is észak, which is derived from éjszaka ("night"), since above the Tropic of Cancer, the Sun never shines from the north.
Korea, called Chosŏn (Korean: 조선; Hanja: 朝鮮) in North Korea and Hanguk (Korean: 한국; Hanja: 韓國) or Daehanminkuk (Korean: 대한민국; Hanja: 大韓民國) in South Korea, is an East Asian territory that is divided into two distinct sovereign states: North Korea, formally the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK), and South Korea, formally the Republic of Korea (ROK). Located on the Korean Peninsula, Korea is bordered by China to the northwest and Russia to the northeast. It is separated from Japan to the east by the Korea Strait and the Sea of Japan .
Korea emerged as a singular political entity after centuries of conflict among the Three Kingdoms of Korea, which were unified as Silla (57 BC – AD 935) and Balhae (AD 698 – 926). The united Silla was eventually succeeded by Goryeo in 935 at the end of the Later Three Kingdoms period. Goryeo, which gave name to the modern exonym "Korea", was a highly cultured state and created the Jikji in the 14th century. The invasions by the Mongol Empire in the 13th century, however, greatly weakened the nation, which forced it into vassalage. After the Yuan dynasty's collapse, severe political strife followed. Goryeo eventually fell to an uprising led by General Yi Seong-gye, who established Joseon in 1388.
Masikryong Ski Resort (Korean: 마식령 스키 리조트) is a ski resort at the summit of the 1,360-metre (4,460 ft) Taehwa Peak (Korean: 대황산) some 20 kilometres (12 mi) outside Wonsan City in Kangwon Province, North Korea. According to the official project plan, the first stage of the 2,430-square-kilometre (940 sq mi) development cost USD 35,340,000 (£21 million; €25.5 million) and included construction of a luxury hotel, ice rink, swimming pool and restaurants. Official revenue forecasts suggest that 5,000 people will visit each day, generating an estimated annual income of USD 18,750,000 (£11.1 million/€13.5 million). The Masikryong (literally, horse-resting pass) project was initiated by the North Korean government as part of a drive to "make people not only possess strong physiques and sound mentality, but also enjoy their sports and cultural lives in a world’s advanced condition." Despite political tensions with neighbouring South Korea, leaders in the north hope to host some events at the 2018 Winter Olympics to be held in Pyeongchang. Constructed in just ten months, North Korea's only ski resort is part of a drive by leader Kim Jong-un to increase foreign tourist numbers from 200,000 to 1 million per annum by 2016.
Kim Jong-un (Korean pronunciation: [kimd͜zɔŋɯn]; born 8 January 1983; also romanized as Kim Jong-eun, Kim Jong Un or Kim Jung-eun) is the supreme leader of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK), commonly referred to as North Korea. He is the son of Kim Jong-il (1941–2011) and the grandson of Kim Il-sung (1912–1994). He was officially declared the supreme leader following the state funeral of his father on 28 December 2011 and holds the titles of First Secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea, Chairman of the Central Military Commission, Chairman of the National Defence Commission, Supreme Commander of the Korean People's Army and presidium member of the Politburo of the Workers' Party of Korea. He is the third and youngest son of Kim Jong-il and his consort Ko Yong-hui.
From late 2010, Kim Jong-un was viewed as heir apparent to the leadership of the nation, and following his father's death, he was announced as the "Great Successor" by North Korean state television. At Kim Jong-il's memorial service, Chairman of the Supreme People's Assembly Kim Yong-nam declared that "Respected Comrade Kim Jong-un is our party, military and country's supreme leader who inherits great comrade Kim Jong-il's ideology, leadership, character, virtues, grit and courage". On 30 December 2011, the Politburo of the Workers' Party of Korea formally appointed Kim as the Supreme Commander of the Korean People's Army. In April 2012, the 4th Party Conference elected him to the newly created post of First Secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea.

Only an hour's drive from where the world's elite athletes will battle for medals at the Winter Olympics in South Korea lies a ski resort frozen in time after it was abandoned more than a decade ago. The Alps Ski Resort was one of the country's first winter sports destinations, attracting tens of thousands of skiers every year until it abruptly shut its doors in 2006. Restaurants, swimming pools, chairlifts and ski hire shops have all been left as they were, giving the resort an apocalyptic feel with nobody around.

North Korea on Tuesday (December 31) held an opening ceremony for a luxury ski resort in Wonsan, located in the country's east.

North Korean state broadcaster, KRT said leader Kim Jong Un visited the ski resort and expressed his satisfaction after looking around its facilities which included a hotel, ski service and rental shops. KCNA said the ski resort includes 10 ski courses.

Nov. 27 (Bloomberg) --- North Korea is one of the world's poorest countries... But that hasn't stopped leader Kim Jong Un from pushing a multi-million-dollar luxury project. Bloomberg's Zeb Eckert reports. (Source: Bloomberg)
North Korean leader Kim Jong Un ended the year by visiting the opening of the country's multimillion-Pound Masik Pass Ski Resort. Kim, who can be seen touring the resort in these photos, reportedly enjoyed skiing as a teenager studying in Switzerland, and this resort in Wonsan has long been a pet project of his. The project has also been carried out in rivalry with South Korea, where Pyeongchang will host the 2018 Winter Olympics. North Korea's Olympic committee has gone as far as to suggest the resort could share some of the events with its neighbour. Kim Jong Un assumed power in December 2011, after the death of his father Kim Jong-Il. Earlier this year the country's continued testing of nuclear weapons raised tensions with South Korea, and in recent months he has had both his former gir...

Lester Holt of NBC went to a so-called ski resort in North Korea. Looking at his video report it is obvious the Commies put on a show for Holt and group. It is also obvious Holt and group must have known it, but cared not about the fake display and reported it as genuine. In the video the ski slopes in the background are empty. A ski resort filled with people and empty ski slopes? Yep in Lester Holt’s world nothing unusual about that. English language reports on a large outdoor television screen. Seeing English used on the screen should have awaken NBC, but ignored the obvious. The lift-chairs in the background empty and motionless.

UPDATE - one year after visiting North Korea I traveled to South Korea and made a video comparing my experiences in both of these two countries.

This is my day to day life throughout the 7 days that I spent in North Korea. You can never be sure whether things were staged or not in North Korea because you are only shown what they want you to see. You can't choose where or when you will be going to specific places, they simply tell you to hop on a bus and ask you to get off at one point or another. That is why I didn't want to offer my opinion about whether things were staged or not, whether th...

I am well aware that all tours to North Korea are organized and preplanned, and what I saw was a skewed perspective (a small fraction) of the realities that may exist behind closed doors.

I was inspired to do this because of FunForLouis VLods in North Korea made the country appear safe to travel to and film in. His vlogs were very misleading. The filming I did raised the attention of my North Korean tour guides.

North Korea has been on my list for years and finally I made it. This short VLOG should give you a little impression of what it is like to travel to the DPRK or better known as North Korea. I went on a 3-days tour starting in Dandong, China. I went with Young Pioneer Tours and it was an incredible experience. I don't have an opinion on whether it was staged or not, whether they are bad or good, or how I feel about the whole trip. I went to the DPRK as a tourist and for a cultural exchange.

I had always wanted to visit North Korea. This fascination had gotten the best of me and I decided to venture into the mysterious country for a 7 day trip with Young Pioneer Tours. It was truly a life-changing experience. I learnt so many things about the history and culture. I also learnt that the North Korean people are very friendly. Many of them don't want to be governed by the Kim family but have no choice. I tried to be as unbiased as possible, while just showing you the things you can expect to see if you YOURSELF decide to take a trip to North Korea one day. I was only allowed to freely video things that the North Korean tour guide wanted me to. So this video is not meant as an expose of any sort. It is just a travel blog of my time in North Korea.

https://www.facebook.com/learnwithsyed WARNING: Some governments advise against all travel to North Korea due to the uncertain security situation caused by North Korea’s nuclear weapons development program and highly authoritarian and unpredictable regime. Though there is little evidence of safety issues concerning tourists on organized expeditions, those planning to engage in activities that the North Korean government forbids must be prepared to face severe consequences. Under no circumstances are you to say anything that could be perceived as an insult to or critical of Kim Il-sung, Kim Jong-Il, Kim Jong-Un, the Juche ideology, the Songun policy, the ruling Worker's Party of Korea, the North Korean government in general, or the citizens of North Korea. Simply avoid these topics if you c...

Little does Trump know, "Rocket man" is actually Kim Jong Un's favorite Karaoke song. I'm not proud of this parody... But I uploaded it anyway.
North Korea National Anthem - 애국가 (Instrumental)
In 2015 December, I was given a private tour of the Masikryong Ski Resort (마식령스키리조트) before it was opened to foreigners and tourists.
I had always wanted to visit North Korea. This fascination had gotten the best of me and I decided to venture into the mysterious country for a 7 day trip with Young Pioneer Tours. It was truly a life-changing experience. I learnt so many things about the history and culture. I also learnt that the North Korean people are very friendly. Many of them don't want to be governed by the Kim family but have no choice. I tried to be as unbiased as possible, while just showing you the things you can expect to see if you YOURSELF decide to take a trip to North Korea one day. I was only allowed to freely video things that the North Korean tour guide wanted me to. So this video is not meant as an expose of any sort. It is just a travel blog of my time in North Korea. I tried to remain as respectf...

North Korea: a fascinating country shrouded in secrecy thanks to the firm hand of leader Kim Jong Un. With the threat of war between North Korea and United States at an all-time high, the rest of us are eager for a glimpse at life in the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea. (Tourists are instructed what they can and cannot photograph, while customs agents at the airport can screen and confiscate any computers, hard drives, mobile phones and memory cards, so not a lot of unauthorized pictures make it out of the country.

This is a film about a traveller in the strange land called North Korea or officially the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK). Tours to the DPRK are tightly scheduled and normally include a visit to the demilitarised zone, museums and statues to Kim Il-Sung and Kim Jong-Il, Pyongyang’s amusements parks, chandelier-laden metro system and showcase entertainment facilities such as the Circus and the SchoolChildren's Palace. In addition to these, I took a flightseeing flight on a Mi-17 helicopter over the DPRK's capital city of Pyongyang. As well, as my tour was an extended one, it also went the northeast of the DPRK to the tri-country area around the Rason Special Economic Zone where the DPRK, China and Russia conjoin. The cult of the Kims is perhaps the most extraordinary feature...

A leköszönő Obama elnök azt mondta a frissen megválasztott Donald Trumpnak, hogy a legkeményebb dió Észak-Korea lesz számára a külpolitika színpadán. És úgy tűnik, igaza van, az ázsiai ország mára atomhatalom lett, mely rövid időn belül akár az USA-ra is veszélyt jelenthet. A film Észak-Korea zárt és rettegett világába kalauzol el Lisa Ling, a Nat Geo oknyomozó újságírója segítségével, aki 2006-ban a legnagyobb titokban, egy szemműtéteket végző orvoscsoport tagjaként járt először a diktatórikus államban.
