It always interests me on how many rows of ribbons they have. Here’s some 60-year old general, with fifteen rows and you just have to wonder....how often do you get a medal in NK, for doing nothing?

If you have lived to be a 60-year general in the NK military, you deserve every medal you got.

Each of them is the “Not Getting a Bullet in the Back of the Head” ribbon of the year.

You probably get at least one medal for every purge you survive. Over the course of a career that's a lot of medals.

You get a ribbon for every year you survive without being executed by the Kims ;)
