How Americans Live Today

(YouTube link)

This is supposedly a North Korean propaganda film showing how Americans live. It's too bad we have eaten all the birds, but there is plenty of snow to eat and make coffee with. We are thankful for the North Koreans, who donate fabric to the Red Cross so we can have walls and hand out cakes to our senior citizens. The watermark on the footage leads to the website v.ifeng.com. Any insights from those who can read Korean Chinese (if you can find any info on the website) will be appreciated. -via Digg

Update: Too funny to be true. I traced the takedown order to the original producer, Alun Hill, who titled this video North Korea Comedy Show. It is satire. 


ifeng is a Hong Kong-based TV broadcaster, not North Korean. If their people weren't living in such horrible conditions, it'd be funny to think of North Korea as a giant "The Onion" country trolling the entire world.

"In other parts of the US, often disguised as a foreign country in Europe" where much of the footage was actually shot, of course. The disguise is so complete that they've successfully hidden any signs of non-white people.
