Football in DPR Korea: Propaganda vs. Practicality (Lecture)

This is a lecture I did at the University of Vienna back in June. I'm on holiday this week, so I'll see you back next week with more content! How did the DPRK inject state propaganda into football, and was it always as intense as it is today? What gave birth to the DPRK players’ mentality of extreme loyalty? Could we see a normalisation of DPRK football culture in the near future? In this talk, Yong Ja Hong gives a historical overview of the development of the DPRK’s totalitarian political system through the lens of football. Using a myriad of hard-sought original DPRK sources and the knowledge base of ROK academia, she explains how the expansion of Kim Il Sung’s personality cult had a profound impact on athletic life and how the personality cult had to take a back seat as winning football on the international stage took priority. With something for football fans, historical enthusiasts, and sociologists alike, this session will give a uniquely relatable perspective on one of the world’s most closed societies. Yong Ja Hong is a doctoral candidate in North Korean society, culture, and media at the University of North Korean Studies in Seoul. She also holds a master's in North Korean studies and a bachelor's in unfication, diplomacy, and security from Korea University. Her work, which primarily concerns DPRK athletics, has appeared in NK News and various academic conferences throughout Europe. Check us out at the following links for more coverage!
