Anyways,

Rumsfeld link to sale of reactors to North Korea - smh.com.au

Or more like the American government sold nuclear equipment to North Korea.
I see. But does North Korea make horror movies or suspense movies for the world like South korea?

They made a Godzilla rip-off with a kidnapped South Korean director.

Believe it or not, it's a joint Japanese-North Korean film.

During the 1980s, Japan took North Korea more seriously than South Korea.

Even today, some Japanese people have problems with this because they think South Korea is a less of a country than North Korea. Ironic how it sounds.

That's because North Korea's purpose of movie isn't entertainment.

Unless you go to Beijing and get a copy of Unsung Heroes, a very old North Korean movie.

Here's another North Korean created movie with South Korean producers.

Empress Chung - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

But the director is interestingly a Korean-American.
