Reportedly via China.

There was a fair bit of coverage on the DPRK's MD 500E fleet in 2013, including in The Aviationist and even Business Insider, after the aircraft appeared in a military display in July of that year.

Flight was one of the earliest sources to break news of the original sale, back in 1985.
