Among the many "Ask" blogs that AAK! inspired, TK feels the proudest of Ask a North Korean by NK News. Within the English language Internet, it is absolutely the closest to hearing the perspective of ordinary North Koreans on a regular basis.
So TK is happy to announce the new Kickstarter campaign by NK News, which will be used for hiring two new Ask a North Korean writers. There is a number of swag available for your donation, including eBooks about North Korea, coffee mugs and custom t-shirts bearing Unha-3 rocket or Taedonggang Beer logo.
Got a question or a comment for the Korean? Email away at askakorean@gmail.com.
Update: the campaign has ended with success. The original goal to hire an on-the-ground reporter at the North Korean-PRC border has been funded. The stretch goal to fund the hiring of two recent North Korean defector journalists has also been funded. As a contributor, I'm looking forward to wearing my NK swag.
