They are thinking that you're Fidel Castro (cuban landlord) who's the great leader Kim JI's only close friend. Laughing

So I think NK agents are surfing the Dave's site to kidnap some foreign English teachers from SK and ran into "Cuban Landlord" = Fidel Castro. Laughing

You are correct. Internet privileges are given by Kim himself to his "selected few". Even then, the net is closely monitored and logged. Very strange indeed. hehehhe. Dave's ESL is being monitored by the North! Shocked


Must be. My guess is they found your site through this one. They are trying to dig up dirt on you to pass it along to their agents in the South and in Cuba.

If they are basing their assessment of the Western World on Dave's, it would explain a lot of their diplomacy and doctrine.

A lot.

(It would explain their crappy English too...)

All triplets in North Korea are being forcibly removed from parents after birth and dumped in orphanages. The policy is carried out on the orders of Kim Jong-il, who believes that a triplet could one day topple his regime.

Is that true?

Every so often I check my website stats. Today I noticed that I have had 15 people from North Korea look at my website. Shocked

Are there English teachers in North Korea (probably a stupid question)?


IP's are notoriously inaccurate--or rather, IP loggers.

There is Internet in North Korea. I know a guy who volunteered up there for half a year. Most likely they'd have it in the UN compound and it would be a pretty lousy connection.

Also considering how Kim Jong-il has all the technology he needs, I'm sure major important party members have unrestricted access to the Internet.
