THE 4 SEASONS OF PYONGYANG is a propaganda video, produced by the comrades in North Korea, showing all of the magnificent architectural structures of Pyongyang, as well as the wonderful services that the State and Party provide to the lucky inhabitants of Pyongyang.
At the end of the Korean War, the capital city of North Korea was nothing but at mass of rubble. After the war, Pyongyang was rebuilt in an extremely modern style architecturally; the objective being to make it a "paradise of the people". The result, undoubtedly is one of the most oddly beautiful and unusual cities in the world.
With a background of surprisingly beautiful music, the video shows the "ultramodern" capital Pyongyang throughout the 4 seasons of the year,
