I have studied North Korea for most of my adult life.
In what I hope history will call the “Korean Olympic Thaw” I have viewed the developments with much suspicion knowing DPRK as I do, compared to all their actions over all the decades none of it made any sense and I guess they still don’t.
DPRK still is one of the most notorious violators of human rights in the world and their nuclear arsenal still endangers the entire region, maybe even the world.
But today, after seeing this, I am ready to have hope, please, let this be the beginning, let this be the clip when future generations look back in their classrooms in a reunified Korea, let this be the moment they look to.
I think a healthy amount of suspicion is still warranted, this is DPRK we’re talking about.
But, I’m ready to hope.
