Ignore the mention of the NK TV series; these are jokes collected from
defectors.

The first:

* An Englishman, a Frenchman, and a North Korean are having a chat. The
Englishman says: "I feel happiest when I'm at home, my wool pants on,
sitting in front of the fireplace."

The Frenchman, a ladies' man, says: "You English people are so
conventional. I feel happiest when I go to a Mediterranean beach with a
beautiful blonde-haired woman, and we do what we've got to do on the way
back."

The North Korean man says: "In the middle of the night, the secret police
knock on the door, shouting: Kang Sung-Mee, you're under arrest! And I say,
Kang Sung-Mee doesn't live here, but right next door! That's when we're
happiest!"
