Unicorns are the stuff of, I dunno, unicorns. Theyāre fantasy! This isnāt the 1600s, and we know better. But in North Korea, which sometimes seems like itās stuck in the 1600s, the governmentās central news agency is running a story about a unicorn lair. Thatās correct, a lair where a unicorn lived.
Here is the entire article, because honestly, it must be read to be believedāor disbelieved. Whatever. Itās bananas. Iām posting the article as it appears on the countryās official mouthpieceās site, if anything, for proof that it actually did. Have a look:
North Korean propaganda can get interesting (if you havenāt seen it, the Vice documentary is definitely worth watching). But a unicorn lair? To prove Pyongyang was the capital of Ancient Korea? Really?
Itās like the North Korean government is getting revenge against The Onion for naming Kim Jong-un the sexiest man alive.
