ONN's Regional Issues Manager and Senior Analyst Rachel Minyoung Lee's latest piece for 38 North, co-authored with 38 North Fellow Martyn Williams, analyses the evolution of DPRK weather news. This analysis was introduced in a Financial Times column.
In the analysis, Lee analyses how the changes in Pyongyang's weather news line up with the country's broader propaganda strategy under Kim Jong Un. Lee notes that the importance of weather forecasting in North Korea will only increase given the country’s push to revamp its national crisis management system.
