The Korean Central News Agency reported the following about the launch of the 5,000-ton destroyer.

A serious accident occurred during the launching of a destroyer. Due to immature command and carelessness in operation during the launching process, the parallel movement of the bogies (dry dock sleds) could not be guaranteed, which resulted in the launching sled in the stern being released first and becoming stranded, the ship's balance being destroyed by a dent in the bottom of some sections, and a serious accident occurring in which the bow section could not be released from the stern.

Here's a pic of the destroyer 9 days before the launch:

And here's footage of dictator-supreme Lil' Kimmy at the launch ceremony before the incident.

It has, but the title has nothing to do with the story.

I searched the words “Korean” and “destroyer” and didn’t see anything.

You know how it be with the search feature here. It is the thread titled, "You thought you were having a bad day at work...".

Is it evidence that we live in a scripted simulation that a random poliboard poster started a thread this very morning stating that NK is our biggest threat?



Probably the first thread/mention of NK in months and not 4 hours later an NK military asset fails in spectacular fashion on camera broadcast across the globe.

Ah. I figured even if it’s wasn’t in the title of the thread, the words “Korean” and “destroyer” would have to be mentioned in a thread about a North Korean destroyer capsizing. My bad.
