Probably nothing but could be health-related. He is probably trying to get in peak physical condition for the Olympics.

Whitehouse 874 Posted June 28, 2021 Seems something serious is about to happen. It looks like state media is prepairing North Korean citizens for the worst. As a known chain smoker he could be on the verge death's door. Or he's punking the world..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not exactly late period Kirk Douglas 99% of NK’s population have less meat on them than him here, surprising they were so upset by how he looks. Then again that’s brainwashing and the fear of god knows what punishment for you. I have to commend Kim for his courageous battle against cheeseaholism though! While I can’t say the cockwomble will be missed, it’s a bit of a worry about who would step into his shoes should he cark it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

drol 12,138 Posted July 28, 2021 Also on a wheelchair and incredibly frail-looking Hyon Chol-hae O Kuk-ryol is wheelchair-bound too The surprise is Choe Yong-rim looking hale and hearty Absent were Ri Yong-suk, Kim Yong-ju, Kim Ki-nam, Choe Thae-bok, Ri Yong-mu, Kim Yong-nam. Every day that passes it is a miracle that none of these ancient hyerarchs die, but it will be quite a flood once it starts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tower1 93 Posted July 28, 2021 I have a hypothesis for this. Maybe some of them died and were replaced with similar looking people. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drol 12,138 Posted July 28, 2021 1)A hypothesis for what? I said their health is visibly deteriorating and it is only a matter of time 2)Yeah, surely, North Korea can't live without O Kuk-ryol... I think you are a bit overestimating the importance of these relics. Kim will attend a lot of state funerals in the next few years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Or mabe he won't attend any because they'll all live to 120 years because they actually died and were replaced with 30 years younger people in a ridiculous attempt to secure top spots on the list of longest lived state leaders. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
