Okay, that was a pretty tasteless joke. But I followed it with that priceless gem of a pun.
Anyway, a South Korean think tank is estimating that the North will be short of feeding its people this year by about 1.2 million tons of food if international aid isn't received. The country apparently needs 5.23 million tons of total food to feed their population, according to the Korea Rural Economic Institute.
I'm surprised that story didn't mention that the lack of international assistance is mostly because of the nuke deal that looks like it will never happen. But I suppose that's a story unto itself, isn't it?
