North Korea Officially Ghosted South Korea in Its New Constitution
After seven decades of promising they’d eventually get back together, Kim Jong Un just made the breakup legally binding on the official state website.
North Korea quietly posted its revised constitution online, and every single romantic reference to "peaceful reunification" has been deleted.
For decades, both sides kept up the awkward pretense that they were just an estranged family destined to reunite. Kim hinted months ago that the fiction was over, but now the legal paperwork is live on state web servers. Pyongyang scrubbed all talk of national unity and officially redefined the South as a completely separate foreign neighbor.
The text defines the country's borders from China and Russia down to the southern border, promising severe payback for any territorial violations. Meanwhile, troops in the Demilitarized Zone have been backing up the legal edits by planting fresh landmines, building fences, and test-firing high-speed torpedoes.
It turns out seven decades of shared history and reunification rhetoric can be wiped out in an afternoon with the backspace key.
