North Korean illustrators and graphic designers appear to have helped produce work for US animation studios unbeknownst to those companies, suggesting that unreleased episodes of a few popular American cartoons could include work from one of the most closed-off economies in the world.
I think the actual cause of this is outsourcing to China where you have no transparency as to who actually does the work. It’s nearly impossible to outsource to NK from inside the USA, but it’s pretty trivial to do it inside China.
My guess is that the work got outsourced twice with one Chinese middeman company keeping the difference.

Oh, I don’t doubt that. However the fact that presumable neither of us work in outsourcing and can deduce that makes it seem willful ignorance.
