24 Apr 2025
Where is the first place she goes after being released from prison? The investigators and reports want to know…They start following her - into the mountains? The first place she visits has an unsettling feeling. It’s in the middle of the mountains and there is a giant stone monument at the entrance that reads - “final resting place for souls.” What is that pink building?It’s a square baby pink shade colored building with NO doors. Just two tiny prison style windows. That’s it.Outside the building there are all sorts of “offerings” for the spirits… Whoever built this “temple” built it to feed off the energy of dead spirits. Whoever did this - is using dark magic to their benefit. When reporters look into it - they realize the pink home allegedly belongs to the President of South Korea and the First Lady of the nation. The ones accused of using shaman magic to win the election, change the trajectory of the nation, and ultimately lock down the country to take control. Full show notes at rottenmangopodcast.com
Full Episode
It looks like a hot air balloon, but it's so much smaller and it doesn't come in those like fun rainbow colors. It's just a giant white balloon with a big black bag attached at the bottom, just drifting into the air. People are standing outside. They're covering their eyes from the sun, but also they're trying to get a good look at this thing. What is this thing?
it's so anticlimactic it's slow the balloon is slow but it's coming down and it's also so random like what is this giant balloon and it's not just one over the span of five months thousands of balloons five thousand five hundred giant balloons just keep mysteriously floating in the air in different parts of the country of south korea how big are they
There, I would say, it could probably fit two, three people in a balloon. Oh, it's big.
Yeah. In the beginning, there was panic. I mean, some regions had to shut down the airspace. They delayed all flights. Some regions, the mysterious balloons, they start triggering these air raid alerts. But later on, it just becomes the way of life. Every citizen gets an amber alert. Balloon flying in your region, beware. Some of them land peacefully on the street, making people gather around.
Another one smashes into greenhouses. Others start breaking down mid-journey and they just start spewing stuff onto the street. A few land near police buildings. Two do end up causing a big stir because they land on the grounds of the South Korean presidential office, which means they got to be investigated thoroughly. The balloon itself is just a balloon. It's what's attached to it. That's weird.
There's no weapons. There's no like biological warfare. That's what people thought. It's just a ton of waste paper. Think about if you were to get all of your home trash bags and then attach it to a hot air balloon and send it on its merry way. There are cigarette butts, used toilet paper, cut up fabric. And there's also feces, animal feces, human feces, feces with live parasites like round worms.
I mean, I guess it's maybe if we're dramatic, could be considered biological warfare. It's poop balloons. That's what they're called. Sent to South Korea by North Korea. This is in 2024. Last year, for five months, when we were in Korea, we were getting alerts about the poop balloons that were being sent down near us. North Korea is sending a message.
Some of them have pamphlets inside with derogatory messages for the South Korean president and the first lady. And naturally, this becomes a huge diplomatic issue with Kim Jong-un's own sister, publicly responding, and she states rather sarcastically, That is wild. To be fair, they are not bullets. They are balloons. It's less lethal.
But North Korea, this is technically a reactionary measure since South Korean activists have been sending balloons filled with anti-regime pamphlets, thousands of USB drives containing K-pop songs and K-dramas. They called it the balloon wars. And this is just one of the many shitty things unfolding in South Korea in 2024.
