The video was deemed fake:<p>&quot;Hi Moderator of &#x2F;r&#x2F;NorthKoreaNews here!<p>This is bullshit of the highest magnitude.<p>The South Korean and Japanese press monitor broadcasts from North Korea and they&#x27;re silent on this claim. North Korea has already publicly announced their support for the the South Korean team - <a href="http://world.kbs.co.kr/english/news/news_IK_detail.htm?No=103338" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;world.kbs.co.kr&#x2F;english&#x2F;news&#x2F;news_IK_detail.htm?No=10...</a>. Even more importantly the North Koreans are actually able to watch the World Cup on State TV - <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yPyHoDcwbzE" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=yPyHoDcwbzE</a>. Football is extremely popular even in North Korea.<p>The only evidence here is this Youtube video that seems cleverly spliced together from stock footage of North Korean Media.&quot;<p>via &#x2F;u&#x2F;systemstheorist on reddit&#x27;s &#x2F;r&#x2F;wtf.

This is obviously a fake.
