We Went Undercover Inside North Korea
History Hit sends a crew posing as tourists into Pyongyang to see daily life under Kim Jong Un's rule, filming monuments, minders, and the choreographed routines visitors are shown in the North Korean capital. The undercover footage is intercut with interviews tracking Kim's own history, including people who knew him during his years at school in Switzerland, offering a rare personal angle on a leader who has never given an interview. The film also digs into the 2017 assassination of his half-brother Kim Jong Nam at Kuala Lumpur airport, treating it as a window into the regime's methods of controlling threats to the succession. Between the tourist-eye footage and the interviews, the film builds a picture of a state built on secrecy and a leader most of the world only knows through propaganda photos and missile tests. It stays focused on verifiable detail rather than speculation, using what the undercover cameras actually caught inside the country as its spine.
