A famous hacker who goes by the name “The Jester” pointed out on Twitter that it appears as if someone hijacked a North Korean radio station to play “The Final Countdown” by Swedish rock band Europe last week. The song appears to have played on a shortwave 50-kilowatt radio station in the city of Kanggye. The station is located near North Korea’s border with China and broadcasts at 6400kHz which is between AM and FM radio. He posted an alleged recording of the one-hit wonder coming across a crackly radio.
