Watch: The Latest North Korean Video Threat

These CGI-enhanced videos are great, far from intimidating, and dare I say…cute. These media friendly, edited, and enhanced propaganda clips are typically meant for the citizens of the nation, and not the world. A topic we previously discussed in the hype following a similar Chinese video earlier this year.
