It's So Funny (Korean: 화술소품무대:재담[a]) is a type of North Korean comedy television show. These types of shows have been on the air since the 1970s, the start of state programming in North Korea, making them some of the world's longest-running television comedies as well as a staple of North Korean television.[1]
The show usually consists of a man and a woman in military uniform having a conversation. The two protagonists sometimes sing, dance and try slapstick, involving activities which exceed the boundaries of common sense.[1] The show is intended to improve troop morale. Its themes are often repetitive and its humor obscure, but its propaganda content in favor of the North Korean leadership is blunt.[1]
