The Dear Leader's Gwangmyeongseong "Satellite"
And the entire int'l news community was forced(^^) to report about the "successful launch of the Eunha-2 space vehicle..", or as NK's No. 3 Radio Broadcast announced today at 13:00 (KST): "The Gwangmyeongseong-2, which is a declaration of the achievements of a strong and prosperous state to the whole world, entered(*) its orbit successfully!"
Reuters (09:35 CET): "North Korea said it had successfully put a satellite into orbit on Sunday on a three-stage rocket that was now circling the Earth and transmitting revolutionary songs." "Der Satellit überträgt die Melodien der unsterblichen Revolutionshymnen 'Lied von General Kim Il Sung' und 'Lied von General Kim Jong Il'", the German Spiegel interpreted a KCNA report.

CNN: No object entered orbit, the North American Aerospace Defense Command said Sunday, after North Korea claimed it had launched a satellite.
BBC: North Korea failed in its attempt to get a satellite into space after a rocket launch early on Sunday

Following "report", published in today's Chosun Ilbo MUST be an April Fools' joke(*):
Kim Jong-il's Son Feels Japan's Reaction 'Justified'
North Korean leader Kim Jong-il's eldest son Kim Jong-nam has said he believe Japan's reaction to the North's impending rocket launch "justified" for self-protection, Fuji TV reported Tuesday. The cable news channel interviewed Kim's eldest son on Monday at Beijing International Airport and in Macau.
Kim had been asked whether the Japanese government was overreacting. The questioner did not directly mention the missile launch, but Fuji TV said Kim's reply was surprising since North Korea warned on Mar. 9 that shooting down the missile would be tantamount to a declaration of war.
When the reporter asked Kim why North Korea was bent on launching a missile at this moment, he said he did not know but felt the timing must be connected to the six-party nuclear disarmament talks and direct dialogue with the United States.
When the reporter said Kim senior looks pale and emaciated, Kim responded, "As you know, you lose weight as you grow older. Isn't it better to be thin than to be fat? Perhaps father was tired because of his overwhelming workload."

* Just y'day KCNA Blasted Japan's Anti-DPRK Ruckus! And the very angry pamphlet ended with the warning: "Should Japan dare recklessly intercept the DPRK's satellite, the KPA will consider this as the start of Japan's war of reinvasion... and mercilessly destroy all its interceptor means and citadels with the most powerful military means!"
But possibly it has been also just an April Fool's joke (but a little premature!)??(^^)
