Interesting.

What’s the Korean word for Perestroika?

In NORK parlance, does “fired” mean shot?

Most likely fired because he didn’t sink the capitalist South Korean ships.

Interesting in light of information that the Young Un was there for the shellings.

TLR - we were all talking about this guy last week and how, noticeably, his name was missing off the funeral list. Seems like SK intel has come to the same conclusion you did last week.

Coming from a Chinese source, this is noteworthy. Maybe this power transition isn’t going so smoothly.

According to the Maeil Gyeongje, stocks are falling fast with talk of a possible coup in North Korea and Chinese cyberspace lighting up with talk—originally posted on a Chinese military affairs website—that China should deploy ground forces to North Korea to prevent a sudden collapse of the North Korean regime.

Now the world will be denied seeing the Nork's leaders going from Il to Sik.

We downloaded this comedy from Netflix last night.

The Juche Idea

2008NR 61 minutes

Director Jim Finn helms this experimental satire that examines what happens when a South Korean filmmaker sojourns into communist North Korea to breathe new life into that country’s flagging, propaganda-driven movie industry. Believing that cinema can prop up North Korea’s Juche Idea of self-reliance, mad dictator Kim Jong-Il pulls out all the stops to help the young émigré produce appropriate films. Sung Kim and Daniela Kostova star.

Kim was not on the list of the funeral committee for Kim Jong Il

It's not looking good for Kim...

Right. They are testing the waters and put people on notice.

S. Korean stock market is always full of rumors. Kim Jong-il has died a dozen times over before he finally kicked the bucket.

That photo in the link looks like Lee Hee-ho, widow of former South Korean President Kim Dae-jung. Story here: Kim Jong-il’s heir meets with S. Korean delegation.

Isn’t that the word for “in your face Yankee”.

I though Juche is the term for DPRK defiance.

No?

She is a home-grown fifth column. Her late husband is even more so. Nobody has done so much damage to S. Korea as Kim Dae-jung. Her death will be another step into the right direction.

Kim Jong Mentally Ill was a big a movie fan, especially of South Korean films. He had the biggest female star in South Korea kidnapped and taken north, where he hoped she would help invigorate the North’s film industry. (This when he was still Number One Son, and had not yet ascended to the throne.)

Apparently, she was a good enough actress to play along and eventually won enough confidence from the tin pot tyrant in waiting that she was allowed to leave North Korea for a film festival in some east European country still at the time under Soviet domination. The first chance she got, she bolted and appealed to the local police for asylum. Habits of a thousand years of civilization die hard and the east Europeans returned her to her homeland.

The Korean word in parenthesis deliberately does not match the Juche. Juche is the cult of self reliance, that is a huge part of North Korean official ideology. A strange ideology from a polity that cannot feed itself. And whose leaders’ biggest vice is imported French liquor and German cars bought with counterfeit Benjamin Franklins.

Interesting.

How is the term in parentheses pronounced please?

Would you have a rough translation perhaps?
