Exciting career opportunity for North Korean women: Join Bowl Cut Jr.'s 'Pleasure Squad'



On the one hand, I guess you have to give it to Seth Rogen and James Franco for nailing this in The Interview. The basketball court scene had the Pleasure Squad to a T. On the other hand, how much credit do they deserve for something so seemingly obvious, especially when you consider that it's basic sophomoric humor and they surely would have put it in whether they thought it was true or not?
Anyway, if you're a hot North Korean woman not too far into your 20s and you're looking to earn a little cash, this is the opportunity for you. Provided, of course, you don't mind having sex with Bowl Cut Jr.:
North Korean authorities are recruiting young women to be part of a revived so-called "pleasure squad" that entertains dictator Kim Jong Un, according to a published report. The South Korean newspaper Chosun Ilbo said that the group that used to perform for Kim's father, Kim Jong Il, was disbanded shortly after the elder Kim's death in December 2011. The members were made to sign a pledge of secrecy in exchange for money and gifts. According to the paper, the women who worked as entertainers received an amount of money worth $4,000 before returning to their hometowns. The Chosun Ilbo reported that women who worked in Kim's palaces and summer homes as maids and cleaners received about half that amount. Both groups of women also reportedly received home appliances.

Britain's Daily Telegraph quoted Toshimitsu Shigemura, a professor at Tokyo's Waseda University described as an authority on North Korean affairs, as saying that Kim believed the women who entertained his father knew too many state secrets. I wonder if you get a bonus if you end up becoming the mother of the inevitable heir to the throne - Kim Jong Uh Oh. Obviously I offer this mainly as a curiosity. It's hardly unheard of for dictators to avail themselves of the sexual services of young women who either want to get close to power or who feel they have no choice. In fact, it's not always necessarily limited to dictators. But you might consider that this is the same guy with whom we frequently make deals, you know, of the food for nuclear good behavior type. Come to think of it, he and the Iranians are basically BFFs in a realpolitik sense. (I know it's Dennis Rodman on a social scale.) By the way, I wonder what vintage those appliances are. Are North Korean refrigerators advanced to the point where they have automatic ice makers, or do you still need to fill up those trays? Microwaves with buttons, or still just dials? Or do you get better appliances if you're willing to, shall we say, take things a little further? Honestly, I don't know how the concubine reward system works. If you can enlighten me and keep it clean, by all means. It's Friday. Enquiring minds want to know.
