In the video aired by the North's state-run television station, KRT, soldiers performed multiple shows of strength: smashing items, breaking free from chains, lying on glass and throwing knives. Kim smiled and clapped as he watched the show at the Defence Development Exhibition 'Self-Defence-2021'. During the exhibition, Kim said his country's weapons development is necessary in the face of the US' hostile policies and a military buildup in South Korea.

It's not a demonstration of their physical strength. That's just how strong North-Korean concrete is.
-
This is one of the rare occasions where he seems to be genuinely impressed.
-
1:00 he had that look on his face like these guys are crazy
-
While the supreme leader himself is on his way to become a human panda.
-
Their enemy: Oh no, their so physically strong Also the enemy: brings out guns and missiles
-
Legend has it that they're still clapping.
-
The only 10 guys being fed 😂
-
The incentive for the soldiers to do this was to imagine that they were destroying Kim Jong-un's head.
-
The dude who busted the brick with his head while running is my hero . I've always wanted to run at full speed like juggernaut and bust through doors .
-
I cannot lie, these guys are unbelievably agile and strong. Their weight training programs gotta be insane
-
My throat hurts after watching two soldiers bend an iron rod.
-
i respect that these activities were seemingly selected by how ridiculously dangerous and unbelievable they are. astounding
-
I'm honestly impressed by how agile they are, military troops around the world are usually trained to be bulky these lads are trained like ninjas
-
And I thought opening my tomato sauce bottle front of family was kickass.
-
Its more like a kim jung un's personal circus. 😂
-
This is impressive but I doubt it would be very effective against a guy with a gun.
-
Kim looked genuinely shocked when the dude ran through the bricks with his head
-
Imagine all the physical training they had to go through and then they just die to a bullet to the head.
-
I cannot believe my eyes......what a performance.....what a quality!:)
