Ageing TV Anchor becomes famous as N Korea turns notorious

An ageing TV anchor of North Korea, Ri Chun-Hee, suddenly made a reappearance a few days ago to announce an earth-shaking news. The viewers were familiar with the famous anchor and knew something great was coming. They did not have to wait for long, for she soon informed the listeners of an act that would "make the world ... look up to our strong nuclear country." North Korea had for the first time tested the Hydrozen bomb! While Pyongyang rejoiced the event marking their leader Kim's birthday, there was world-wide condemnation of the nuclear proliferation despite sanctions against the specific act by North Korea. Ri chun-Hee was perhaps famous in the Koreas till then. She was there as anchor for many milestones of North Korea since 1971, when she joined the newly set up TV channel in her country. Ever since she rose in her career and became famous as `People's Broadcaster," in her trademark `chima jegori,' the country's national dress. But after the H-Bomb, she became world famous. As the important H-Bomb event was breaking, Ri Chun-Hee was recalled to announce the matter to the world. She is famous for modulating her voice to suit the event.
