Balloons Carry News of Ri Sol-ju’s ‘Porno’ to North Korea

On October 6th, South Korean conservative political groups decided to tell the people of North Korea that Ri Sol-ju, wife of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, had starred in a pornographic film. Seizing on reports from Japan’s Asahi newspaper that members of North Korea’s famous Unhasu Orchestra, in which Ri used to work, had been publicly executed for making a pornographic film, the South Korean groups included similar allegations that Ri herself had been in the videos in packages sent via balloon over the DMZ. North Korean state media condemned the Japanese report, and even defector media groups within South Korea strongly doubted the truth of the story. Online comments were harshly critical of the balloon launch, saying it would only hurt the trust-building diplomatic process and make conflict more likely.

Pamphlets to be Sent to the People of North Korea

Ri Sol Ju, the wife of Kim Jong Un, First Chairman of North Korea’s Security Council, has not been seen in public since Japanese media reported that she was involved in a sex scandal. On the morning of October 6th, representatives from Blue Union and citizen’s defense groups met at an observation platform at Yeoncheon in northern Gyeonggi Province to release balloons carrying news of Ri Sol Ju’s sex scandal. The groups hoped that the balloons would scatter packages of pamphlets with descriptions of Ri’s actions into the hands of North Korean citizens.

HiKorea:

I don’t really think this is the best thing to do…

마린보이:

how embarrassing

귀거래사:

If there’s a war, would these guys be doing the fighting? What do they think they’re playing at

talentful:

Where is the honesty here? Our government is trying negotiation and trust building while at the same time these groups, which receive government funds, are spreading these pamphlets? Where is the trust building?

ε‥날づн를달Øŀ‥з:

If there is a war, these guys have to go to the front and fight

ranee1967:

haha what jiral…and where do these groups get the money to pull of stunts like this…

빨간하늘:

Come on, you’ve got to be more sensible, these groups are crazy

korea-ri sol ju-porno-kim jong un-balloon

화이트보드:

Looks like these guys got bored with just eating and decided they needed something to do.. senseless bastards.. you’re the worst, go back to the North

폴리티카:

Looks like these guys are praying that war starts [lit. “making ritual sacrifices for”] She’s still a human being, do you think it’s okay to insult Ri Sol Ju like this?

저멀리우주:

shit, great job

신비한:

these warmongering red defector bastards should get their asses back to the North~

쏘키:

Hey idiots, don’t you know that stuff like this just makes relations with the north worse, did you think it would be helpful? But then again, you guys need to keep attacking North Korea and insulting it in order to feel important, so this must be natural for you… Don’t you think this could hurt your precious Lady President’s efforts to build trust with the North? Please just leave it alone, eh? try to think more about what you’re doing

소금장수:

What do you get by doing this? bunch of reactionary conservative morons

진실만보자:

Cut it out.. What do you get from irritating the North? Looking at what you would do if war actually broke out on the peninsula, you must be reds yourself!! And if you’re looking for scandals, you don’t have to go very far.. What exactly did your precious Lady President do with that fake preacher Choi Tae-min??? tsk tsk tsk tsk [Choi is alleged to have fathered a child with Park Geun Hye decades ago]

다미맘:

Just go straight to the North and start fighting. Don’t do this inside our country~ As much as North Korea deserves to be criticized, I don’t think this a good idea. There is no benefit to our country when you do this. Actions like this make me wonder if these guys really want South Korea to prosper.
