Ask what Korea is talking about.

North Korean leader Kim Jong-un has inspected a major naval base under construction on the east coast, calling the project "crucial" to the country's security and maritime sovereignty, state media reported Thursday. Yonhap also reported the inspection on Nov. 11, and the Korea Times carried the story on Nov. 12. Kim's remarks were reported as urging timely completion of the project, though the documents do not detail further reactions from Korean people or outlets beyond the initial reports.
