I can see that the DPRK, far from being a “hermit kingdom", is a socialist nation following Kim Jong-il's maxim to "plant feet in our land, and lift eyes to see the world."👍✌️

North Korea, 1980s, Lyrical Dancing: Wangjaesan Dance Troupe

[2017]
I'm able to see that by creating “Art [that is] Juche-oriented, revolutionary…national in form and socialist in content” that “encourage[s] creative workers and
3/"and artists to produce works of high ideological and artistic value”, North Korea is advancing its socialist contemporary culture in keeping with the times.👍✌️

By studying, assimilating & appropriating foreign dance & music styles into DPRK's own unique contemporary culture

WHAT IS LYRICAL DANCE, AND WHAT IS THE MEANING BEHIND IT?
omahaschoolofmusicanddance.com/our-blog/lyric…
“Lyrical dance is a style that combines ballet and jazz dancing techniques. It is performed to music with lyrics so that it inspires expression of strong emotions the choreographer feels from the
2/“lyrics of the song. This style concentrates on an individual approach and expressiveness of such emotions as love, joy, hurt, or anger. It does not concentrate on the dancer’s precision of movement…

The Lyrical style has a relatively recent history and brings together ballet

Why Russians Are So Good At Ballet | AJ+ via @YouTube
2/“While in the U.S. ballet is seen as entertainment for the elites, in Russia it’s mainstream culture. During the Cold War America used popular culture to spread its views w/ things like movies & television. The Soviet Union countered w/ high culture in the form of music &
3/"ballet.”

“The role of ballet in Russian culture has always been one that’s connected to the government. Ballet is not just something that people do, or companies have done, but rather that this has become something that’s seen as deeply connected to political power.”

I am Jin Hui | Jin Hui Vlog #dprk, #northkorea (visual & audio enhancement)

On Oct 10, 2020 everyone was celebrating and enjoying the holiday of the 75th founding anniversary of the Workers Party of Korea in North Korea. Jin Hui speaks in fluent Russian in
2/ this Vlog to a Russian & international audience, w/ English & Korean subtitles.
3/It's nice to see a Vlog wherein Jin Hui speaks Russian, which reflects the historical, ideological & cultural overlapping b/t North Korea & Russia thru the years. Will there be a day when DPRK looks favorably to the US in ☮️time as it does to Russia today? I surely hope so.☺️

The Power of the Photograph:
When we share our photo albums w/ one another, our differences in language, culture, nationality, race & ideology melt away in the universality of our shared human experience. From North Korea here is:

Jin Hui’s Story: Album 1

2/Photo albums & video documentaries are powerful story-telling devises. The opening 35mm photo of a surfer at Big Lagoon Beach in the Part IV video of my recent camping-road trip👇(& others) was taken in 1987-88. How is my video different than Jin Hui's?
3/"Jin Hui's Story: Album 1", on the surface, is a concerted effort by Jin Hui, North Korean media & travel-tourism personnel & video arts specialists affiliated w/ the Party meant to make inroads into Western social media, inviting the public into viewing "Jin Hui's Story".
