Russian Soldier Struggles with Korean: Hilarious Video Surfaces

Recent reports suggest that North Korea has dispatched approximately 10,000 troops to Russia, with some already moving closer to the Ukrainian front. Meanwhile, the Russian military appears to be preparing for joint operations with North Korea.

X shared a video from the Live Ukraine Telegram channel, which provides real-time updates in English on the situation in Ukraine on Monday.

The video features a Russian soldier studying North Korean conversational phrases, with North Korean text displayed alongside Russian explanations and phonetic transcriptions.

When a fellow soldier asks, “How’s the studying going?” the soldier responds with a curse. He then points to a phrase that reads, “What’s happening?” and quips, “I might as well ask a chimpanzee what’s going on.”

The two soldiers laugh and express their confusion, saying, “I don’t understand any of this.” They then point to another Russian phrase, “Where are you from?” exclaiming, “This makes no sense. I really don’t get it,” followed by more expletives.

As speculation about North Korean troop deployments increases, interest in the authenticity of this video is growing.

Meanwhile, the Ukrainian military reported that around 3,000 North Korean soldiers are stationed in Kursk, a southwestern region of Russia near the border, primarily conducting training at night.

The National Resistance Center (NRC), operated by Ukraine’s Special Operations Forces, confirmed that North Korean troops are undergoing training at various facilities. They also noted that staff from communist embassies have arrived at these training sites to assist with interpretation and observation.

Ukrainian authorities continue to monitor the situation regarding North Korean troop deployments. They reported that North Korean soldiers were seen in Kursk on October 23 and that the Russian military has assigned one interpreter for every 30 soldiers. Additionally, each North Korean soldier reportedly receives 50 meters (164 feet) of toilet paper and 300 grams (10.6 ounces) of soap each month.
