Let’s face it – you’ve got no chance of being a badass if you haven’t got your own theme tune.
North Korean State Television recently unveiled a song to help the image of ‘The Great Successor’, Kim Jong-Un, to further cement his place as the nation’s leader.
Seemingly straight out of a 1940′s war film, the song is pompously epic with overtones of needless aggrandizement – much like the North Korean dictatorial dynasty itself. Although translations are not currently available, it is said that the lyrics are a ‘remix’ of Kim Jong-Un’s rally cry at the 100th anniversary celebration of his grandfather Kim Il-Sung.
Currently being played in heavy rotation on North Korea state radio, it’s rather unlikely that the song will be popular anywhere other than Pyongyang – but I quite like it!
