IT'S SO BAD THAT IT'S GOOD!!!!!
This North Korean movie entitled "A Traffic Controller on the Crossroad," made sometime in the 1980s, has legions of YouTube fans precisely because it's so bad. Just like other B-movies such as "Attack of the Killer Tomatoes." BTW, the hot chicks don't hurt either.

Chaoxian (North Korean) Beauty Stuns Netizens
Chaoxian women are feminine and beautiful. But this "tea shop girl" is particularly so. Horny netizens are salivating over her. But it's more than physical attraction. It's also the fact that she's just so feminine in her demeanor, a trait that anglo-saxon women no longer have...

(Reuters) - North Korea said on Friday the uncle of leader Kim Jong Un, previously considered the second most powerful man in the secretive state, has been executed for treason, the biggest upheaval since the death of Kim's father two years ago.
The North's official KCNA news agency said Jang Song Thaek had been executed after a special military tribunal found him guilty of treason, only days after he was stripped of all posts and expelled from the ruling Workers' Party.
News of the execution followed a swirl of unconfirmed media reports that one or more of Jang's aides had defected to South Korea. The South's spy agency says it has no knowledge of any such defections.
North Korean politics are virtually impenetrable from outside and the reason could also easily be a falling out between Kim and his uncle, or even with Jang's wife.
If true, the execution caps a spectacular downfall for a man who had long been a fixture in North Korea's leadership.
"The accused Jang brought together undesirable forces and formed a faction as the boss of a modern day factional group for a long time and thus committed such hideous crime as attempting to overthrow the state," KCNA said.
"The special military tribunal of the Ministry of State Security of the DPRK ... ruled that he would be sentenced to death according to it. The decision was immediately executed," it said, using the North's title of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea.
The official Rodong Sinmun newspaper also on Friday carried a photograph of Jang in handcuffs and being held by uniformed guards as he stood trial. It is not known how the sentence was carried out.
Jang was a vice chairman of the powerful National Defense Commission and a member of Workers' Party politburo.
Married to the sister of Kim's father, Kim Jong Il, Jang had been considered the man who could help his nephew establish himself in power but at the same time presented the greatest threat to the young and untested leader.
"This is a man who could have competently executed a coup in North Korea," said Mike Madden, an expert on the North's power structure and author of the North Korea Leadership Watch website and blog.
"He knows how the body guards work, how the security forces in Pyongyang work, how state security works - this guy had very intimate knowledge about very key nodes of control in North Korea," Madden said.
Earlier this week, North Korea stripped Jang of his power and positions, accusing him of criminal acts including mismanagement of the state financial system, womanizing and alcohol abuse.
"From long ago, Jang had a dirty political ambition. He dared not raise his head when Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il were alive," KCNA said, referring to leader Kim's grandfather and father, the previous rulers of the dynastic state.
"He began revealing his true colors, thinking that it was just the time for him to realize his wild ambition in the period of historic turn when the generation of the revolution was replaced," it said.
Regional powers have watched the purge of Jang and his associates - conducted in a rare, publicly prominent manner -for implications to regional security.
South Korea's presidential Blue House was holding a ministerial meeting to review the developments.
The United States said it was following the developments in North Korea and consulting with allies in the region.
"If confirmed, this is another example of the extreme brutality of the North Korean regime," said Patrick Ventrell, a spokesman for the White House's National Security Council.

迎 恩 門 (Yeongeunmun)...Gate for Welcoming (Chinese) Imperial Benevolence
Photo Credit: Wikipedia.com
Korean political history and culture are inextricably linked to China's . The picture above of 迎 恩 門 (Yingenmen or Yeongeunmun in Korean) was where Chinese imperial envoys were welcomed by Korean kings. Korean kings also knelt and bowed toward the direction of Beijing as the envoys left the gate. Thus, the name of the gate, Gate (門 ) for Welcoming (迎) Imperial Benevolence (恩).
In fact, Koreans were so crazy about all things Chinese that they named a lot of their important cities and rivers for China and the Chinese. For example, the Joseon capital (what is now Seoul) was Hanseong or 漢城 (Hancheng, or City of the Han Chinese). Similarly the Han River that runs through Seoul is 漢江 (Hanjiang, or the River of the Han Chinese). Interestingly, the modern name for Korea (in use since 1897) 韓國 (Hanguo in Chinese or Hankook in Korean) is based on the ancient Chinese state by the same name during China's Warring States period.
Because of modern-day nationalism, Koreans don't emphasize the Chinese origin of their place names. That's really too bad because history should not be rewritten to suit modern taste. Let's give back to history its own voice...

Wait! Is the Diva Still Alive?
The spokeshole for the DPRK's Youtube channel hints that Hyon Song Wol may still be alive. He did not specifically say that she's alive but stated that her band will perform on September 9, 2013.
So if the band performs on 9/9 without her, then the world will know for sure that the story of Hyon's murder by machine-gun fire (floated by South Korea's Choson Ilbo, which has been known for making outrageous statements. See the Fairbank Report's critique of the Choson Ilbo) is true.
So let the world wait and see if the talented Hyon Song Wol still lives...
Isn't the Internet grand?
Here's the spokeshole's statement:

RIP Hyon Song Wol (玄松月)... You're in a Better Place Now...
Above: The late Hyon Song Wol singing her 2005 hit, "Excellent, horse-like lady."
Little Kim is really out to prove himself. First, he executed a Pyongyang (party animal) cadre with a missile and now a great, beautiful singer by firing squad. Worse than his daddy and grand-pappy...
From USA Today:
A jarring report out of North Korea that claims Kim Jong Un's former girlfriend was executed by a firing squad last week.
Chosun Ilbo,an English language newspaper in South Korea, said unnamed sources in China told it that Hyon Song Wol (of "Electric Horse-Lady" fame) was arrested on Aug. 17 along with about a dozen others; Hyon was a singer, and a number of the others were members of the Unhasu Orchestra.
They were accused of making a sex tape and selling it and were shot three days later for violating the country's pornography laws. A source said some allegedly had Bibles in their possession, and all were treated as political dissidents.
The report has not been independently verified by other media outlets. Chosun Ilbo is one of Seoul's main daily newspapers.

Down with Kimchi Revisionism!!!
In an article on Korean-Chinese (Chaoxianren or Chaoxian minzu) in Korea, the so-called Chosun Ilbo newspaper of South Korea jingoistically proclaims that northeastern China during the 18th century was a part of Korea. LMAO! And more LMAO!
Firstly, refer to the map of Qing China below. Secondly, use some common sensical logic. The ancestral homeland of the Qing was Manchuria, which has always comprised the northeastern (dongbei) territories of China. (Manchus lived in Manchuria, for the benighted writers of the Choson Ilbo.)
At its apex, the Qing empire stretched from Outer Mongolia to Vietnam. An empire this large (and before 1842, quite powerful) surely could have afforded to protect and defend its own ancestral homeland from tiny Chosun (Chaoxian) Korea. In fact, Chosun (Chaoxian) Korea was a vassal/tributary state to Qing China. The Chosun (Chaoxian) king had to pay his respect to the Qing emperor every year or so by sending tributes to the Forbidden City.
Here is the offending paragraph from the Chosun Ilbo (July 6, 2011 online version):
Korean Chinese can trace their roots back to the late 18th century, at around the end of the Chosun Dynasty. At this time, Koreans began migrating in search of food to northeastern China, which was then considered a part of Korean territory.

Gaunt North Korean Dancers in Beijing

Photo courtesy of http://world.huanqiu.com/photo/2010-09/1065773_2.html
Note how abnormally gaunt they look, and these gals are the elites of Chaoxian (North Korean) society. One shudders to imagine the physical look of the less privileged folks in North Korea.
So this year's floods and the Chaoxian government's failed economic policies (including the poorly thought- out currency reform initiative) must have brought havoc of Biblical proportion on the wretched people of North Korea.

They Don't Look Starved to Us; Just Naturally and Wholesomely BEAUTIFUL
Unlike their Southern cousins who are a bit skanky and plasticky (as in eye job and nose job), these Chaoxian beauties are naturally gorgeous, wholesome and full of socialist virtues.
