North Korea announced last week that it’s launching Manbang (“Mon-bahng”), what it’s calling a “Netflix style video-on-demand.” Manbang literally translates to “everywhere” in Korean, and North Korea hopes the device will be ubiquitous.

According to NKnews.org, the set-top box has two primary features: replaying documentary films about Kim Jong Un and his leadership and providing language-learning resources — for Russian and English.

Great answer to a trivia question - “What is 0bama’s bath house name?”
Lil’ Kim has a gay video channel? Hahahahahaha!!!!
LOL, so they can learn English or Russian on TV? Sounds great until there is a knock on the door and you are asked; “Are you planning to leave NK?”
Yes, it will be everywhere for the 13 people with electricity in North Korea.
“which movie featuring a fat slob in flabby clothes pointing at stuff do we want to watch tonight?”
Even Kim himself might get tired of that one, though it would take a few weeks...
All the kids are gonna want to ‘manbang and chill’ now.
Yeah, that was my other thought. They have nothing to eat, I doubt "What's on the Tube tonite?" is really on their minds.
Or is that CNN? Sometimes it's hard to tell.
The jokes write themselves about NK.
Alright! The several hundred people with access to the internet will now be able to watch great patriotic musicals of the past!
“BO might take a page out of Kim’s playbook. “

LOL.
From what I’ve heard, all abodes are fitted with a radio that churns out propaganda 24/7. Dials can only be turned down to low.....but never off.

Channel 073-00 on the Dish Network is now labeled OBAMA. ("What is up with Sen. Obama having his own channel?" asks a St. Louis reader.) The channel plays his two-minute ad laying out his economic plan on a loop, over and over.
BO, on a two minute loop, over and over again? That's one of Hell's INNER circles, AFAIC.
Manbang?
Soon to be Barney Frank’s favorite video-on-demand source.
Manbang and chill?
Look it up on wiki if you don't know
I would rather eat than starve watching TV
