North Korea Attempts To Turn South Korean Data On Its Head

New videos published by Uriminzokkiri use South Korean data and broadcast footage to undermine its neighbor

New anti-South Korea videos published by Uriminzokkiri (우리민족끼리) show North Korean propagandists attempting to turn South Korean data and broadcast material on its head to illustrate just how bad life is in South Korea.

One 3 minute video clip entitled,“President Lee and the People’s New Years Talk”, presents South Korea's outgoing President Lee Myung Bak talking with three "average" South Koreans about the problems facing their country. Touching upon unemployment, high suicide rates, and a stagnant economy, the video provides a logical presentation and a carefully phrased selection of slides that portray a convincing argument when compared with North Korea's propaganda of the past.
