Hamhung City Street Scenes - North Korea, DPRK

2 minute view out on the street in Hamhung City, North Korea, DPRK. Hamhung is in the North East of the country near the Bay of the East (Yellow) Sea and is a major industrial area. A farmer walks his bullock and cart down the main street / side walk - and one of the many steam / gas powered trucks which we weren't allowed to film. Shot in front of the Sinhungsan Hotel in Hamhung (39.914798°, 127.528507°). Thanks for reminding me where this was NKeconWatch :-)

map of North Korea

North Korea, officially the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK), is a country in East Asia, constituting the northern part of the Korean Peninsula. It borders China and Russia to the north, at the Yalu (Amnok) and Tumen rivers, and South Korea to the south at the Korean Demilitarized Zone. Its western border is formed by the Yellow Sea, while its eastern border is defined by the Sea of Japan. North Korea, like its southern counterpart, claims to be the legitimate government of the entire peninsula and adjacent islands. Pyongyang is the country's capital and largest city.

In 1910, Korea was annexed by the Empire of Japan. In 1945, after the Japanese surrender at the end of World War II, Korea was divided into two zones along the 38th parallel, with the north occupied by the Soviet Union and the south occupied by the United States. Negotiations on reunification failed, and in 1948, separate governments were formed: the socialist DPRK in the north, and the capitalist Republic of Korea in the south. The Korean War began in 1950, with an invasion by North Korea, and lasted to 1953. The Korean Armistice Agreement brought about a ceasefire and established a demilitarized zone (DMZ), but no formal peace treaty was ever signed.

According to Article 1 of the state constitution, North Korea is an independent socialist state. It holds elections, though they have been described by independent observers as sham elections, as North Korea is a totalitarian dictatorship, with an elaborate cult of personality around the Kim dynasty. The Workers' Party of Korea, led by a member of the ruling family, is the dominant party and leads the Democratic Front for the Reunification of Korea, of which all political officers are required to be members.

According to Article 3 of the constitution, Juche is the official ideology of North Korea. The means of production are owned by the state through state-run enterprises and collectivized farms. Most services—such as healthcare, education, housing, and food production—are subsidized or state-funded. From 1994 to 1998, North Korea suffered a famine that resulted in the deaths of between 240,000 and 420,000 people, and the population continues to suffer from malnutrition. North Korea occupies the northern portion of the Korean Peninsula, lying between latitudes 37° and 43°N, and longitudes 124° and 131°E. It covers an area of 120,540 square kilometers (46,541 sq mi). To its west are the Yellow Sea and Korea Bay, and to its east lies Japan across the Sea of Japan.

Early European visitors to Korea remarked that the country resembled a sea in a heavy gale because of the many successive mountain ranges that crisscross the peninsula. Some 80 percent of North Korea is composed of mountains and uplands, separated by deep and narrow valleys. All of the Korean Peninsula's mountains with elevations of 2,000 meters (6,600 ft) or more are located in North Korea. The highest point in North Korea is Paektu Mountain, a volcanic mountain with an elevation of 2,744 meters (9,003 ft) above sea level.[95] Considered a sacred place by North Koreans, Mount Paektu holds significance in Korean culture and has been incorporated in the elaborate folklore and personality cult around the Kim dynasty.

North Korea follows Songun, or military first policy, for its Korean People's Army. It possesses nuclear weapons, and is the country with the second highest number of military and paramilitary personnel, with a total of 7.769 million active, reserve, and paramilitary personnel, or approximately 30% of its population. Its active duty army of 1.28 million soldiers is the fourth-largest in the world, consisting of 5% of its population. A 2014 inquiry by the United Nations into abuses Pyongyang 평양직할시 (Chung-guyok)

DPRK/North Korea: May Day Marked in DPRK (KCNA, May 2022)

May Day Marked in DPRK

Pyongyang, May 2, 22 (KCNA) -- The working people in the DPRK enjoyed May Day, the international holiday of the working people the world over.

At the Kumsusan Palace of the Sun, the sacred temple of Juche where President Kim Il Sung and Chairman Kim Jong Il lie in state, the visitors paid deep respects to the portraits of smiling Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il.

Officials and working people laid floral baskets, bouquets and flowers at the statues of the President and the Chairman and mosaics picturing their smiling images on Mansu Hill and in other parts of the country before making bows to them.

Officials of the Party and power organs across the country enjoyed May Day together with the working people.

There took place colorful sports and amusement games at the industrial establishments and co-op farms, including the Pyongyang Trolley Bus Factory, the Kim Chaek Iron and Steel Complex, the February 8 Vinalon Complex, the Jenam Coal Mine and the Unjong Vegetable Cooperative Farm in Kanggye City.

A horse-riding game revved up the festive mood in Hamhung City.

Colorful performances were given at theatres and outdoor stages in the capital city of Pyongyang to enhance the working people's enthusiasm for the revolution and struggle.

The National Folk Art Troupe, the Phibada Opera Troupe and the Central Art Squad for Agitation for Increased Production and others gave performances in different parts of the city, including the Pyongyang Indoor Stadium, Songhwa Street and the Hwasong area where the construction of 10 000 flats is going on.

Art performances were also given in North and South Hwanghae and Jagang provinces, Kaesong City and other regions. -0-

누들로드 여행 한번 떠나보자고????

① 경기도 하남 미사리

함경도와 평안도 전통음식인 초계탕에서 유래한 '초계국수'!
닭육수에 닭고기를 얹어 보양식으로서도 좋은 음식이지!
차가운 육수와 푸짐한 닭고기 콜라보! 최고!

(02:00) 오늘의 명언...적어두자구..


② 경기도 수원

시초는 인천인데, 쫄면 명소로 유명한건 수원이다? 어째서??????
1970년대 장안문 팔달문 주변에 수원 쫄면집이 점차 늘어났다나봐!
너무 달지도 않고, 재료와 조화를 이루는 양념이...크..★


③ 경기도 여주
1978년, 실향민이 천서리에 막국수집을 연 것을 시초로 만들어진 여주 천서리 막국수촌!

40년 전통으로 이어진 양념장을 슥슥 비벼서 먹는 막국수란..
얼마나 맛있게요♥
막 만들어서 만들었다는 말은.. 아닌거같지?????

④ 경기도 연천

비빔국수 매니아들 사이에선 이미 이름난 '망향비빔국수' !
그 본점이 있는 경기도 연천으로 왔다!!
그 시작도 한번 들어볼래?
1968년 5사단 앞에 문을 연 망향비빔국수는 장병들 입소문에 전국적으로 유행하게 되었대!
직접만든 면과 야채수, 양념김치가 그 비결이라나봐!

(10:31) 비빔국수에 만두???? 빠지면 섭한걸~
