What's the frequency?

CBS discovers that there's starvation in North Korea...it must be an imperialist plot;
A North Korean soldier believed to be in his late teens defected to the South on Monday by sneaking across the border that divides the two Koreas, an official at South Korea's Ministry of National Defense said.
The South Korean troops who received him, first fed him some ramen. Because;
... in 2012, when North Korea's young new leader Kim Jong Un was hardening his grip on the military, three soldiers defected separately across the border, including one who defected after killing two of his superiors who caught him stealing food.
Leave it to the heirs of the Dan Rather legacy to put a spin on it (our bold below);
During the Cold War, South Korea's authoritarian regime celebrated the defection of North Korean soldiers as an important victory in its propaganda war against the North.
Courage.
