Ok, so this is my 46th video that I've uploaded, a lot of people have asked me…
/"How could you download a YouTube video in NK?/".
/"He downloaded the video after returning to Indonesia, because he did not dare to download it directly from NK/".
No… that's not entirely true…

The answer is..

I am already back to Indonesia and currently living in Indonesia.
My first 23 videos were uploaded while I was in North Korea.

The most different thing is that when I uploaded a video in NK, for a 15 minute video, it took two days to upload, because the internet there was unstable due to the electricity going out several times a day. I cannot subscribe to mobile cellular Internet. because it's way too expensive and… not reliable too…
but… when I'm in Indonesia, I can choose which internet provider and to download a 15 minute video it only takes me a few minutes…

ALL RIGHT..
back to this video..
I was going to a store located inside the diplomatic compound in Munsu District, behind the Vietnam Embassy (you can check it out on Google Maps).
Of course… because these videos are about my daily life in NK… so I only posted about my routines, the things I do in NK).

This store named Pyongyang Shop, which only several people can access inside, only foreigners and local Koreans who can get permission to be inside the diplomatic complex (usually Koreans who work for organizations and foreign embassies).

By the way…sorry for the bad English and Korean..

Any viewers who understand the Korean language might laugh hearing me try to converse with the locals… please forgive me.
