Have you ever wanted to listen to North Korea’s English-language propaganda? Until now, your only option was to buy a shortwave radio or listen to edited clips on the Voice of [North] Korea website. But now, North Korea Tech points out, you can listen to the full hourlong daily broadcast streaming on the WRN site.
Having listened to some of Monday’s broadcast, I can tell you that the quality is pretty terrible. In fact, a lot of it is so staticy that it’s barely comprehensible. But hey, if you want something clear, you can always watch North Korean TV. If you need something in English, though, right now this is one of the only options out there.
The quality will likely vary from broadcast to broadcast, as the streamable online recordings come via the actual shortwave radio broadcasts and are thus affected by things like weather conditions. North Korea Tech reports that WRN is considering using a more high quality satellite feed, so it’s also possible that at some point the feed will get that upgrade. Until then, enjoy your free daily helping of static and propaganda!
