This talk is really interesting. It talks about the psychology of North Korea; and also touches on South Korea psychology too.

Really interesting. I listened to the whole broadcast (gotta love desk warming). The best info I've heard about North Korea.

Good luck.

The same kind of "worship your leader" psychology is alive and well at Korean churches. UGH!

That guy really has is stuff together- he made several good points-

My favorite:

How come the members of the Think Tank on North Korea can't read Korean?

My answer:

Their brother/sister/father-in-law/friend got them the job Wink

I also watched that video. Yes very interesting.

It's scary how messed up that country is. All the things he was talking about correlate to Communist and Middle ages Rulers more than 100 years ago.

The rest of the world has moved on...except North Korea.

Wouldn't go as far to say he's a koreaphile.
He had his jabs at Korea in general.

No Tangun, nationalism before colonialism and the need to emulate others? It isn't so!!

I recently went to North Korea this summer for Arirang. Screw State of Mind and see it for yourself.
