That's Going to Be an Interesting Debriefing

That's gonna leave a mark:

North Korea could be facing its most serious defection in 15 years as South Korean media said on Friday that a man who managed funds for the ousted uncle of leader Kim Jong Un had fled the isolated country and sought asylum in South Korea.

The aide, who was not named, was being protected by South Korean officials in a secret location in China, cable news network YTN and Kyunghyang Shinmun newspaper said, citing sources familiar with the matter.

That ought to be good for a nuclear test or series of missile launches if the North Koreans don't manage to intercept (and kill, if I'm not clear) this guy before he gets to South Korean territory, eh?
