North Korean News Agency Claims 'Unicorn Lair' Has Been Discovered

Joshua Berlinger

KCNA, North Korea's official news agency, claims that archaeologists have discovered a secret unicorn lair in Pyongyang.

Yes, unicorns.

According to legend, King Tongmyong — founder of the Koguryo Kingdom (B.C. 277-A.D. 668) — rode a unicorn.

KNCA reports 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 History Institute of the DPRK Academy of Social Sciences, told KCNA, " Korea's history books deal with the unicorn, considered to be ridden by King Tongmyong, and its lair ... The discovery of the unicorn lair, associated with legend about King Tongmyong, proves that Pyongyang was a capital city of Ancient Korea as well as Koguryo Kingdom."
