The N. K.'s specifically said in their release that NO RADIATION WAS LEAKED. I found that unlikely, and, thus, became skeptical and submitted this question. Thanks for the answers so far. I'm still interested to hear more.

Personally, I think they're for real. But, I have that small skepticism/theorectical curiosity that drives the question. I'm sure the US gov't (which I've come to distrust) will give a definitive opinion shortly.
