    Supreme Leader hasn’t spoken out yet, and it’s not clear whether his scientists have the capacity to harvest unicorn DNA to make him one so that he may ride out across Pyongyang, but they have indeed found a unicorn lair!

    North Korean state news agency Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) has now broken the incredible news that archaeologists in Pyongyang have discovered a unicorn’s lair!

    In fact the above statement isn’t entirely true – KCNA are actually stating that they are “reconfirming” the existence of the lair.

    The unicorn, which doesn’t have a name, is one of the unicorns that was ridden by the ancient Korean King Tongmyong.

    He was the founder of a kingdom that ruled parts of China and the Korean peninsula from the third century BC to seventh century AD.

    Says the KCNA report:

    Archaeologists of the History Institute of the DPRK Academy of Social Sciences have recently reconfirmed a lair of the unicorn rode by King Tongmyong, founder of the Koguryo Kingdom (B.C. 277-A.D. 668).

    The lair is located 200 meters from the Yongmyong Temple in Moran Hill in Pyongyang City. A rectangular rock carved with words “Unicorn Lair” stands in front of the lair. The carved words are believed to date back to the period of Koryo Kingdom (918-1392).

    Jo Hui Sung, director of the Institute, told KCNA:

    “Korea’s history books deal with the unicorn, considered to be ridden by King Tongmyong, and its lair.”

    The Sogyong (Pyongyang) chapter of the old book ‘Koryo History’ (geographical book), said: Ulmil Pavilion is on the top of Mt. Kumsu, with Yongmyong Temple, one of Pyongyang’s eight scenic spots, beneath it. The temple served as a relief palace for King Tongmyong, in which there is the lair of his unicorn.

    No mention was made as to why all unicorns died.
