I have for years speculated, half seriously, that the opposition in NK, if there is any, would have to be sought in the Foreign Languages Publishing House. <br>
By the way, you might be interested in this rather lengthy version of a first assessment of the KJU leadership with a few interesting details, including possible plastic surgery in NK:<br>

I wonder if some of the North Koreans who put it together had their tongues in their cheeks! Don't they realize that those of us who don't have the privilege of living in the paradise that is the DPRK will find this entire video more amusing than inspiring? <br>
