Steve, are you sure you weren't on 1467 instead? There is no jammer in the DPRK on 1476. That frequency is Sound of the Great Northern Wilderness in most of the area. 1467 is a powerful DPRK jammer, however. It often bleeds over onto 1476, but I can't imagine you'd get the local bleed-over from such a distance. However, Great Northern Wilderness has a decent deal of Korean-language programming. I can check if there is a new jammer on this frequency to block it, as it seems that was their intention with the 1584 jammer, also blocking this network's sister station with Korean, but it seems unlikely.
