Apparently, a good deal of Western intelligence about North Korea's latest
missile came from a defector who worked in a pubs department. This guy
violated what is probably the world's toughest NDA:

"According to Kim Kil Son, who prior to defection to south Korea in
August 1997 worked in a publications department of north Korea's
Number 2 Research Center, development of this missile started in
1987..."
