When a reshuffle happens, you have the biographical context within minutes — not after an hour of archive excavation. When a new term appears in DPRK media, you can trace every prior usage back to 1996 instantly.

Chart the frequency of any keyword or phrase across DPRK state media output over time. Select a date range (preset 60-day, two-year, or all-time), choose one or multiple outlets, and generate a visualisation of how often your term appears in state media output.

Research applications: mapping escalation and de-escalation cycles; tracing the rise and fall of specific policy language; quantitative analysis of propaganda priorities; comparative coverage analysis across outlets. Export charts for use in reports, publications, and presentations.

A continuously updated index charting the frequency of mentions of Kim Il Sung, Kim Jong Il, and Kim Jong Un across all DPRK state media. The relative mention frequency of each leader is a documented indicator of political priorities and legitimacy framing within the North Korean system.

The relative balance between mention of Kim Jong Un versus his predecessors has shifted measurably during his tenure, consistent with documented changes in how his legitimacy is constructed relative to theirs. The index makes that trend visible and trackable over any time period.

The Threat Index scans DPRK state media daily for vocabulary typically associated with periods of elevated military tension — threat language, adversarial framing, military references — and applies an algorithm to the frequency and distribution of those terms to generate an approximate threat level indicator.

Not a classified assessment. Not a prediction. A structured open-source signal that complements other threat assessment inputs and provides an objective, reproducible baseline against which analysts can measure their own assessments. Useful for government analysts, security researchers, and journalists contextualising North Korean language during periods of elevated tension.
