AUDIO: NORTH KOREA OPENS BEACH RESORT
Kim Jong Un, Supreme Leader of North Korea, has unveiled his country’s new beach resort. It’s called Wonsan-Kalma, and it’s located in Kim’s hometown of Wonsan, on the country’s east coast. It’s on a 2.5 mile stretch of beach and can accommodate up to 20,000 visitors (* …who WILL BE HAPPY!). It is said to have water slides, hotels, restaurants and shopping centers, although none of those attractions have actually been verified by foreign press. State-run media said the resort will play a leading role in establishing the tourist culture of North Korea.

* This sounds suspiciously like the next season of White Lotus.
* Make sure you bring some sunscreen, a beach umbrella, and a mine detector.
* Wonsan-Kalma … Hold on … Hmm, not finding it on Trip Advisor … or Expedia … or Trivago …
* Oh – and the restaurants also ask that you bring some food for them to cook. Also, an explanation of what food is.
