North Korea has started a new service called Manbang and boy does that have me excited!

For the first time we'll have access to North Korean television in a netflix type service called Manbang, which of course translates to "everywhere"

They do have people in North Korea that know english right? If this name is supposed to be a troll, they're trolling themselves so I guess I don't get it??

Isn't it actually supposed to be pronounced "mon bong"? All broadcasts will be influenced by Seth Rogen films and footage of Bob Marley.

...allowing viewers to replay documentaries about their leaders and learn Russian and English...

quote:

The Manbang is said to allow viewers to watch five different TV channels in real-time, all featuring state-sanctioned news and educational programmes, and find information about the activities of Kim Jong-un and Juche ideology.

I was gonna make a joke about how every show on the service is probably centered on Kim Jong-un, but it seems I wouldn't have been far off the mark.

It's also a really interesting viewpoint that companies in non-English speaking countries should be hyper aware of what their brand names sound like in the Almighty Anglo-Saxon Global Elite Language even if they are only marketed domestically

Well they can do whatever they want, but North Korea seems to care an awful lot about how they are perceived in the world, so you would think it would have come up.

That's what I don't get, I think they are doing it on purpose but it's like they don't understand trolling.

It would be like if I walked into a bar and said "Hey everyone, you can call me Stupid AssFace!" and then sat down and chuckled, thinking ha, I just trolled them good. :grin:

To be fair, Subaru once tried to launch a car named Fita. In most of Scandinavia that is way to close to slang for vagina so they dropped it.
