North Korean Children's Cartoons
Keith Longo, on his animation blogSeems when theyre not busy making nukes and being a general menace in Asia the fellas up in NoKo bang out their own animated TV shows for the kiddos to watch. Guess they gotta do something while they slowly starve in their bunker society. Thing is, on a TV level this stuff isnt half bad. Oh its not good, no. But its not horrible like I expected, either. Ive seen worse on US air/cable-waves, thats for sure. Of course the stories might be a tad, um different. To quote the story It aint exactly Warner Bros.the cartoons are designed to implant into the minds of children warm patriotism and towering hatred for the enemy, according to official news agency KCNA. All I gotta say is if youre gonna have hatred for your enemies, make sure its not some half hearted wimpy hatred, but a towering hatred. Hit the link for one of those embedded YouTube player thingys.
