South Korean Activist To Drop "The Interview" In North Korea Using Balloons

Posted by samzenpus on from the it's-raining-movies dept.

Siddharth Srinivas writes Park Sang Hak, a North Korean democracy activist, said he will start dropping 100,000 DVDs and USBs with Sony's The Interview by balloon in North Korea as early as late January. He's partnering with the U.S.-based non-profit Human Rights Foundation, which is financing the making of the DVDs and USB memory sticks of the movie with Korean subtitles.

    Perhaps that's the answer to the North Korea problem, grizzly as it may be: get as many civilians there killed as possible (by their own government), for petty things. Eventually, they won't be able to sustain their economy and government as there won't be enough people left to actually do any real work. After that collapses, everyone will starve; give it ten years or so, and there won't be any population left except a few feral people. Then the DMZ can be taken down and the land repopulated by others.
