Kim Jong Un reportedly in “Grave Danger” after surgery.

We haven't heard anything about COVID-19 from North Korea. I have to assume the virus spread there over the Yalu. I wonder if that could be involved?

Kim Yo-jong, his sister, is the closest thing to an heir he has. Not good news for North Korea if true.

From a Guardian article published just yesterday:

As the world grapples with the coronavirus pandemic – with Pyongyang continuing to insist it has not recorded a single case – Kim Yo-jong’s ascendancy continues.

Last month, she made her first public statement, condemning the South as a “frightened dog barking” after Seoul protested against a live-fire military exercise by the North. And in March, she publicly praised Donald Trump for sending Kim a letter in which he said he hoped to maintain good bilateral relations and offered help in dealing with the coronavirus pandemic.

The publication of political statements in Kim Yo-jong’s name underlines her central role in the regime, according to Youngshik Bong, a research fellow at Yonsei University’s Institute for North Korean Studies in Seoul. “It is revealing that Kim Jong-un permitted her to write and announce a scathing statement about South Korea in such a personal tone,” Bong said. “He is clearly ready to allow his sister to become his alter ego.”

There is Kim's older brother (the one he didn't have assassinated), but supposedly he stays out of politics and prefers playing guitar.

If he is dead i wouldn't count on the sister, I would expect a nasty power vacuum.

Perfect time to spark a revolution and bring Korean Unification into reality.
