It says he's a fan of manga characters. There are a lot of horrible, cartoonish dictators in manga

Spooky. |

Great... now I can look forward for NK to kidnap Hayao Miyazaki and making him direct propaganda anime.
You know... it's kind of creepy and sad that I could be arrested for saying that in North Korea. |

His father loved Hollywood movies.
Maybe ps-ed, but still funny.

Wait, this is bad. Real bad.
His dad was a huge movie fan -> Kidnapped his own movie director to make movies for him. His son is a huge manga fan -> Might kidnap mangaka from Japan to draw manga of him! Kubo, Oda, need secret service protection stat! Actually though, for your average C-level mangaka, being kidnapped and forced to draw propaganda manga for North Korea in pseudo captivity might actually be a better life than they lead now

I'm sure the brainwashed masses will soon believe he became fluent in Japanese when he was 3 months old and drew 1500 manga while he was in college. Like father, like son.

I wish I had bought Kim Jong Il's film theory book before it went up to 270 bucks: http://www.amazon.com/Art-Cinema-April-11-1973/dp/0898756138/ref=tsm_1_tp_un_it
I don't know how much faith I'm willing to put in an anonymous source from years ago... |

They have already fine manhwa drawers and writers, so they shouldn't kidnap anybody. I found some propaganda comic on ryomyong.com 2 years ago.

All 1500 of which, one hastens to add, portraying certain social ideals in a conspicuously univocal manner. |

That Homefront trailer is eerie to me as well. Too close to home now. Makes me think that groups like the CIA will look at the manga he reads to try to gauge him in some way.
