SEOUL, South Korea (May 10, 4:29 a.m. ADT) - North Korea, one of the world's poorest countries, claimed Friday it has invented a drink to ease a health threat few outsiders would associate with the country: computer fatigue.
Computers are a rarity among the communist country's hunger-stricken 22 million population. Visitors say the Internet is available only at a few hotels in the capital, Pyongyang.
Still, North Korea's official KCNA news agency said the drink, invented by the Institute of Plant Resources, was tested on computer users, and the "results show that the eye and mental strain has considerably been reduced."
The drink, which ingredients have been extracted from "fruits of a tree," has a "good odor and sweet and sour taste," it said, without giving further details.
