North Korea’s version of Facebook is not off to a great start.
“Best Korea’s Social Network” was set to take the world* by storm before it hacked only hours after it had gone live. The “culprit,” if he can even be called that, was none other than 18-year-old Scotsman and potential kilt-wearer Andrew McKean.
