In reporting the execution by machine gun of North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un’s former girlfriend (supposedly for making sex tapes with other members of her similarly executed orchestra), the Chosun-Ilbo newspaper provides perhaps the greatest understatement in media history:
Kim Jong-un was last year seen at a performance that featured Disney characters and versions of Western songs, stoking hopes that the young leader is more open to ideas from overseas, but that was apparently a misreading.
