MOA Korean news report claims 67 million won in taxpayer money funded translation of "My Friend Kim Jong-un" - a book portraying North Korea's dictator favorably.
The National Assembly audit exposed this funding through a cultural translation program. The book reportedly claims Kim Jong-un's favorability has increased and tells readers "don't misunderstand North Korea's reality."
Opposition lawmakers demand investigation into how government cultural grants selected a book that glorifies South Korea's main adversary. The revelation has sparked outrage about using public funds to translate content praising a dictator while North Korean citizens suffer under his regime.
Should taxpayer money ever fund content that beautifies dictatorships?
