I wouldn’t doubt that they feed false info only to disprove it later.

Glorious Ms. Kim is the smartest, most beautiful, hardest working, strongest woman in the Earth. Our woke queen will bring death to the capitalist pigs.

This is essentially North Korea in a children-friendly version:

Anyway, anything more about these rumours emerged yet?

Quote
North Korea's state-run media has acknowledged the country was experiencing difficulties, lauding the direction of supreme leader Kim Jong Un but staying silent on his public absence amid rumors regarding his health.

Rodong Sinmun, the newspaper of the ruling Korean Workers' Party Central Committee, published an article Wednesday saying that the country does "have some [areas] lagging behind others so far. It is also true that we are going through hardships," as translated by the South Korea-based NK News. The report ultimately placed faith in Kim's efforts to build a "strong, self-reliant foundation" that meant "catching up with the advancing countries' level is never a matter of a distant future."

China has sent a team of doctors to North Korea to help determine supreme leader of North Korea Kim Jong Un's health status, Reuters reported on Friday. Hong Kong Satellite Television reported that Kim was dead, though there has been no confirmation from U.S. sources at this point.

Not sure why I paid so much attention in the class I took during my undergrad on the DPRK, but it was SUPER interesting.  

This is 100% off-topic, but weren't you a medical student? Why were you taking classes on the DPRK in college?

This was undergrad. The class was a one-off elective that I took just to fill out some credit requirements.

No one believes Fake News CNN. But now that a legitimate outlet like TMZ breaks it, we are all in agreement.

This is all very alarming. I do hope North Korea doesn’t implode or get forcibly invaded and turned into a colony by NATO or China in the near future.

The unanswered questions surrounding Kim Jong-un
Amid rumours about his health, the North Korean leader has not been seen for days

"The North Korean leader had missed the “Day of the Sun” commemorations of his grandfather’s death on 15 April last week."


"Why might China suddenly buy large quantities of rice for which it has no clear need? Is China preparing for a humanitarian crisis?"
A well-placed source has said that China is buying up large quantities of rice and cooking oil through commodity-trading front companies, despite it having no obvious additional domestic requirements for these food supplies. This is, to stress, just one source and the claim has not been verified. But if correct it might suggest Beijing is preparing for a possible refugee crisis should the regime in Pyongyang collapse.

Highly recommend the article.

TMZ is now also reporting Kim is vegetative, and TMZ is a way more credible source than CNN or NBC, so I'm inclined to believe it now.

Sarcasm

Anyway, for a government like the DPRK, Kim in a coma is far worse than Kim dead, because they can't elevate a new leader while he's still alive and who's going to pull the plug on a Kim?

I once speculated about her hotness 6 years ago:

https://talkelections.org/FORUM/index.php?topic=203334.0

I thought she looked like 15 back then, only to be reminded by another poster that the picture I googled from her was in fact from a 15-year old Korean singer ... (To me, Korean women between 15 and 25 all look the same).
