The Missing Chapter Podcast
A Strange Bird

The country of North Korea has been riddled with mystery - little is known about this Mississippi-sized country - until fairly recently. North Korea has been locked down to outsiders, and after miraculous escapes by defectors, and a handful of documentary film crews breaching the borders, we’ve become more enlightened about this Hermit Kingdom and what truly happens on the north side of the 38th parallel. As electric fences and barbed wire stretch along the border, we now know their purpose is not to keep foreigners out, but to keep their own people in, and after years and years of propaganda, their supreme leaders of North Korea, who have become deities to their people, have made some highly questionable decisions, as well as coming up with very odd, bizarre solutions to simple problems. Find out one of the more strange decisions the North Korean government made to fix a problem they created, on this episode of the Missing Chapter.
