A video clip was posted on the state-run Radio Pyongyang's YouTube account, in which a female announcer read what she described as "an information technology review assignment of the remote education university for No. 719 expedition agents." She repeated phrases such as "No. 23 on Page 564, No. 19 on Page 479" for about one minute in the post, which had been viewed 2,500 times as of 11 a.m. The numbers were not broadcast on the radio.

I also checked at 657 kHz. 22 Oct /20 1551’51“ to 1556’11“ 657 kHz w/YL reading text in KK. My audio is at https://radio.chobi.net/DX/SPYnumBBS/img/2333.mp3 . This is like an editorial. Gyeongsangbuk-do (慶尚北道) and Daegu (大邱), which are the administrative areas of South Korea, are mentioned. The name Gim Young-hae appears in the story. Is it the story of the Japanese rule?

KK not the native tongue here Since the DPRK hold a deep bitterness of the 1910-45 Japanese colonization period, not surprising they would carry that type of commentary.
