Kim Jong-Il=Big Brother. This means that he controls the way that people under his rule act, think, do anything. He keeps his country on the brink of starvation and technologically behind the rest of the world. But, could this all be changing?
Intellectual stimulants can come in the strangest ways, especially when it’s from a concert video uploaded on youtube. I’m a huge fan of Korean music, and one of my favourite Korean artists is Shinhwa (Myth), a 6-member boy band. Out of the hundreds of videos I watched of them, there was one that really sent my mind reeling.
My knowledge of North Korea is limited to a couple of anecdotes and the debate whether North Korea is building an atomic bomb. It doesn't seem like anyone at all has a pure idea of what it's really like: perhaps more than any other country, it is entirely shrouded in mystery.
Ron Paul, at least on the internet, is massively popular. He seems to be the perfect candidate, although he is a Republican, he supports "States' Rights" and Libertarianism, ending the war in Iraq, as well as the war on Drugs These seem like terrific ideas, right? Well, yeah, but that they are coupled with a few horrible ideas and the right ideas come for the wrong reasons.
I never used to be interested in current events because I always thought that they were extremely depressing, but I always ended up reading a newspaper or looking up certain things online. Maybe it's because like everyone else I wonder, what is going to happen next?
