Right after this, they announced that they have invented "fire".
"Pyongyang, December 28 (KCNA) -- The Branch Academy of Railway Science under the Academy of Sciences of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea has developed a new kind of converter to be used in lighting of passenger train. Merited scientist and associate Prof. Pang Sung Gwan told KCNA that this 30 kilowatt device converts high voltage of direct current flowing through railway lines into alternating current to supply electricity for fluorescent lamp and incandescent electric lamp as well as electric fan, air conditioner and heating equipment in train.
The converter, as big as twice an ordinary filing cabinet, saves direct-current motor, generator for lighting of passenger car, much manpower, materials and funds. And its production cost is very low. The converter enjoys good popularity at home and abroad. "
Anyone else monitor the North Korean "official" website? I do occassionally for interest and humour sake.

It's hilarious in it's propaganda about the south and the US. At the same time though it's kinda scarey and worrisome in it's idol worship of the Great Leader and how it shows the absolute total uncontested power and brainwashing of the state. I feel sorry for the people there. A desperate nutjob country like this with nukes is a million times more dangerous than a place like Irag.
