North Korean K-pop

By request...



I don't like it. Sounds like the same commie crap from China 30 years ago. Obviously, anything coming out of NK is government propaganda but the video is still lame... no miniskirts or hot pants. They should have featured some Pyongyang traffic girls instead.

The title is weird too. I can't read Korean but the Chinese title at the beginning of the video says 骏马姑娘. 姑娘 has a lot of definitions, from girl to prostitute, but 骏马 basically means fine horse or steed. The literal translation into "excellent horse-like lady" is funny but not very meaningful. Maybe there's an idiomatic meaning in Korean (or Chinese) that makes more sense.
