Press Statement of Kim Yo Jong, Vice Department Director of C.C., WPK


Pyongyang, October 18 (KCNA) -- The following is the press statement of Kim Yo Jong, vice department director of the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea, titled "Do not spout absurd remarks":


We cannot but call the clan of the ROK as a really weird one.


The head of the information office of its Joint Chiefs of Staff, at a regular news briefing on Thursday, talked about "copyright" all of a sudden while grumbling about the measure taken by us to completely block the roads and railways connected to the ROK near the southern border of the DPRK physically.


He asserted that one of the three photos of explosion released by KCNA was the one taken by the ROK and we disregarded the copyright by using it without permission.


The ROK seemingly doesn't know what the blasting carried by us means and what imminent severe security crisis it faces, ignorant of the essence of the current situation. No wonder, it has gone as foolish as to hype a "rumor about photo," something completely irrelevant to the matter.


Dancing to that tune, media and so-called experts are busy with a detailed analysis, talking about "camera angle" and "shape of smoke".


They have nothing to do more significant, haven't they?


Their behavior makes even a cat laugh.


I would like to inform those idiots of the fact that the photo is a screenshot from one of the video clips released by NBC, Fox News, Reuters and other foreign media.


We cannot take a photo at that angle. So we used that photo, finding that it met our intention, being visually good and excellent in composition.


Is it problematic?


Hasn't the ROK used the photos and video clips released by KCNA when airing the news about us?


Then a question arises as to whether the ROK thought about a violation of international law and copyright when reporting the news about us with our photos and video clips.


It is their unreasonable criterion that nothing matters when they do so but when we do it, it is a violation of international law and copyright. I would like to make them unable to say anything more at once.


According to our initial investigation, Yonhap News, Kyunghyang Daily News and other media of the puppet ROK all abused the two photos of explosion opened to public by us for their news report.


It seems that it is necessary to probe into whether our approval was secured in the ROK where international law is allegedly well observed.


This is just chicanery peculiar to the ROK, the country without a parallel in the world in abusing international law, international standard, principle and generally accepted value for their benefits and hurting others.


Its Joint Chiefs of Staff in charge of defending security of its country should properly investigate the grave violation of the sovereignty and security of our Republic first, instead of disgracing itself by engaging in such a deed unbecoming to its position as photo assessment.


They will be watched until they refrain from dodging and feigning ignorance.


Explicitly speaking once again, we are clearly aware that the ROK has severely violated our sovereignty.


Curiosity arises as to how much they will get for shirking responsibility and letting out nonsense.


They are, indeed, weird ones. -0-
