Made in Korea? Bikes = yes, rockets = not so good.
Grow older but never grow up
Not quite. The rocket you refer to was made in North Korea. However, when I was living in Pucheon City in South Korea I heard a massive explosion one day. South Korea has some big scud-like missiles and what the conscripts have to do is go through the motions of launching, perhaps a bit like how Americans would pretend-launch their ICBMs, but they would never take off - but the conscripts pressing the buttons had know way of knowing whether 'this' time' was real or not. They just pressed the buttons. Anyway, there was a fault, and when the conscript presed the button, up went the bloody misslie on its way to North Korea. Luckily, it was remotely detonated shortly after launch, and it exploded over Incheon (very near and above where I was) and debris rained down everywhere. It was in the news for one day then conveniently disappeared. No one was hurt, but I remember a seeing a pic of the engine on top of a crushed car.
ACC - ha ha ha. I don't think so.
After thought - I would have loved to have seen the look on that conscript's face after he pressed the button!
