Giant Hamburger you've got some competition!
 
Crazy Kim is trying to weasle in on your territory, or is this some clever ploy by clan hamburger???

SEOUL, South Korea (AP) - North Korean leader Kim Jong Il has introduced hamburgers to his reclusive, communist country in a campaign to provide "quality" food to university students, media reported Wednesday.

The hamburgers were introduced in 2000 and dubbed "gogigyeopbbang," Korean for "double bread with meat," according to the June 29 edition of the North Korean state-run newspaper Minju Joson. The report was carried by South Korea's Yonhap news agency on Wednesday.

Although reports from the isolated country have in recent years mentioned the introduction of the American fast food classic, the latest announcement seems to credit the country's leader for their advent.

The news marks a curious development for North Korea, where U.S. consumerism is routinely reviled in the official media and people refer to the soft drink Coca Cola as the "cesspool water of American capitalism."

Wednesday's report cites leader Kim Jong Il as saying at the time of the hamburger's introduction: "I've made up my mind to feed quality bread and french fries to university students, professors and researchers even if we are in (economic) hardship."

The government then built a hamburger plant and Kim Jong Il ordered officials to pay close attention to modernizing mass production, the report was quoted as saying by Yonhap.

Hamburgers from the factory were first provided only to students at the elite Kim Il Sung University in Pyongyang, but were later provided to other schools, the daily said.

Hamburgers are now familiar to many North Koreans, it added

Exactly!! It's all just a part of the much larger picture. You can't simply take this at it's face value. Now...excuse me whilst I take a sip from my icy cold can of cesspool water of American capitalism.

Hail 8!

I did some consulting for Kim Jong-il some years back. It's nice to know that he made good on his promises to me. I even suggested the name "gogigyeopbbang" during a round of golf whilst visiting the old NK. I didn't even think he liked it. Expect more "Hamburger Factories" to start popping up in repressive regimes around the world. Everything is coming together as planned.

It will be soon,

Hail Fremen!

If those hamburgers were not tasty enough you have only to say the word. I will line every road from there to your computer with the disembodied heads of the insolent man-apes that do not respect you with, not only exemplary service, but the tastiest meats and cheeses their establishment has to offer.

A human life sits precariously perched on each one of your taste buds.

I think gogigyeopbbang just rolls off the tongue, doesn't it?

Uh-Oh, North Korea has discovered Coke's secret ingredient.

Capitalism surrenders!
