Vox: 

The rumors of Kim Jong Un’s “grave” illness, explained

Is the North Korean leader sick? Dead? Missing? Here’s what we know.

North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un has become a visible global presence over the last few years. But in the last week, he’s completely disappeared from public view — and rumors have started to swirl that he may be seriously ill, or even dead.

On April 15, Kim didn’t appear at a celebration commemorating North Korea’s most important holiday, which honors the founder of the country, Kim’s late grandfather Kim Il Sung. State-run media oddly hasn’t published any photos of a recent weapons test, which typically show the leader watching in approval. And official statements from the country have curiously lacked any direct comments from Kim himself. 

All of this has led to rampant media speculation that the 36-year-old Kim is recovering from major surgery, or gravely ill, or dead, and a flurry of activity by US intelligence to figure out what, if anything, is really going on. 

Meanwhile, North Korean media outlets have kept mum about the swirling rumors and continue to act as if life in the Hermit Kingdom is proceeding as usual. Even as they publish old (or undated) statements from Kim about the economy and other topics, the gist is that there’s nothing to see here and everything is fine.

That could be true. Kim has disappeared for weeks before, only to show up in public as if nothing had happened. The coronavirus has also impacted the country, and the dictator may be taking precautions to avoid infection. Plus, North Korea’s culture of secrecy means rumors can run rampant regardless of how farfetched they may be. 

But Kim is known to be in poor health; he’s obese, he’s a cigarette smoker, and he’s believed to have severe gout.

Report: Kim Jong Un in 'vegetative state' after stent procedure gone wrong


Japanese magazine cites medic as saying delay in a simple surgery left Jong Un in a severe condition

 

As mixed signals are coming regarding the state of North Korea's Kim Jong Un, an unconfirmed report in the Japanese media claims that Pyongyang's leader may be in a vegetative state.

 

According to by Shukan Gendai, a Japanese magazine, during a visit to a rural area earlier in April, Jong Un unexpectedly collapsed, clutching his chest.

So he's a vegetable? Will the religious right protest if he is taken off his life support? 

 

 

Are you complaining about the only thing keeping you clinging to a semblance of life? You are barely living proof that all vegetables are not good for a person. You're like iceberg lettuce, no nutritional value but very shittable.

You don't remember Terri Schivo? 

Yes....but picking a reference to the ‘religious right’ on this particular story is a bit odd. That’s the first place your mind went? Really? Were you tortured by a cult in your youth?

I’m an idiot? That’s another odd response. The leader of a foreign country is potentially dying and you take that as an opportunity to toss out an attack on people who have nothing at all to with the story....and I’m the idiot? OK...you want to offer any opinion on the Bills draft picks? That has about as much relevance to this topic. What do you think of Epenesa?
