Not Far But Away
2015–2016, Cantonese, on TVB Jade. Created by Barry Cheung Chi-Ming.
Although North Korea and Hong Kong are not far from each other, most Hong Kong people have little knowledge of this mysterious country, and they harbor countless curiosity. In the eyes of foreigners, North Korea is a hell of a dictatorship, a lack of freedom, and a high-risk nuclear weapon. Although the locals are facing social problems such as food shortages, they still believe that they are living in the happiest paradise on earth. Hong Yongcheng once traveled all over the beacon fire and flashy places, but this time he shouldered a daunting mission and bravely entered North Korea. During the period, he will also shuttle through the Yalu River Broken Bridge, Sinuiju Art Museum, Pyongyang Film and Television City, Wenxiu Water Park, and Wanshoutai Grand Monument Square. Visit many famous landmarks in North Korea, learn the truest side of North Koreans on the spot, and uncover the mystery of this Iron Curtain country!
