Pinoy in North Korea - The Arirang Mass Games 2018
The Grand Mass Gymnastics and Artistic Performance Arirang.
In celebration of North Korea’s 70th Founding Anniversary.
What are the Mass Games?
The Mass Games are a 90-minute, stadium-sized, synchronized gymnastics performance featuring as many as 100,000 volunteer participants against the backdrop of a massive, ever-changing human-powered “Jumbotron.“
The Human Jumbotron
One of the most spectacular sights at the Mass Games is the giant mosaic “Jumbotron,“ which is made up of tens of thousands of individual students. The North Koreans have boasted it to be the “largest picture in the world.“
Also known as the Arirang Mass Games, or the Arirang Festival, a mass gymnastics and artistic festival held in the Rungrado May Day Stadium in Pyongyang, North Korea.
The Arirang Mass Games were performed annually until 2013, after which they were discontinued for unknown reasons despite their popularity.
The popular show has finally returned after 5 years, and will run for 1 month starting September 9, 2018. The first night of the performance was attended by the Supreme Leader, Kim Jong-Un (cameras were not allowed, and audience were heavily screened). We watched it again on September 12 and there were no more security checks and cameras were allowed.
This year’s return performance will be titled “The Glorious Country.”
On Aug. 14, 2007, the Guinness World Records recognized the Arirang Mass Games as the largest gymnastics display in the world, with 100,090 participants.
The games take place at Rungrado May Day Stadium in Pyongyang, the largest stadium in the world in terms of capacity (approximately 150,000)
