Kim Jong Un's health in grave danger after surgery?

[shogun]

North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un is reportedly in danger of dying after having a heart operation.

CNN reported Monday evening that Mr. Kim, 36, was in “grave danger,” citing “a US official with direct knowledge” of intelligence reports on the matter.

A second American official told the network that while it’s difficult to assess how severe Mr. Kim’s health woes might be, concerns about them are credible.

South Korea not buying it.
China intel says the same.

The rumours started from a NK defectors website. Of course the fake news establishments just took it and ran clickbait without verifying anything. Such a shame on US news media. I believe what SK says. They would have a very reliable intel network of spies inside NK since the start of the Korean War.

Reports that North Korean leader Kim Jong-un is seriously ill after heart surgery are not true, officials in South Korea have said.

The claim about Kim Jong-un's ill health surfaced in a report for a website run by North Korean defectors on Tuesday.

An anonymous source told the Daily NK that they understood he had been struggling with cardiovascular problems since last August "but it worsened after repeated visits to Mount Paektu".

This led to a chain of reporting by international media on a single-sourced story.

News agencies then began to run with that claim, and it was all they had until some reports emerged that intelligence agencies in South Korea and the US were monitoring the claim.

But then came a more sensational headline in US media that the North Korean leader was in a critical condition after heart surgery.

However, a statement from the South Korean government, and sources at Chinese intelligence - speaking to the Reuters news agency - said this was not true.

Kim Jong Un may be dead or in ‘vegetative state,’ Hong Kong and Japanese media say

North Korean media hasn’t mentioned Kim’s health or whereabouts, even though other media have sparked international speculation about his well-being


North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, right, smiles while walking with U.S. President Donald Trump for a meeting in Hanoi, Vietnam in 2019.

Kim Jong Un may be dead, according to a Hong Kong broadcast network, while a Japanese magazine is reporting that the North Korean dictator is in a “vegetative state” after he underwent heart surgery earlier this month.

A vice director of HKSTV Hong Kong Satellite Television, a Beijing-backed broadcast network in Hong Kong, claimed that Kim was dead, citing a “very solid source.” Her post on the Chinese messaging app Weibo has been shared widely on social media, according to a report in the International Business Times.

Other unconfirmed reports, attributed to senior party sources in Beijing, said an operation to insert a stent went wrong because the surgeon’s hands were shaking so badly.

The North Korean dictator is in a “vegetative state” after he underwent heart surgery earlier this month, a Japanese magazine says.

The weekly Shukan Gendai reported Friday that a Chinese medic sent to North Korea as part of a team to treat Kim believed a delay in a simple procedure left the leader severely ill, Reuters reported.

North Korean media hasn’t mentioned Kim’s health or whereabouts, even though reports by other media have sparked international speculation about his well-being.

The Chinese expert told the magazine that Kim clutched his chest and fell to the ground on a visit to the countryside earlier this month. A doctor accompanying Kim performed CPR and took him to a nearby hospital.

Kim, believed to be 36, needed a stent procedure, which calls for placing a tube into a congested blood vessel to allow blood to keep flowing to the heart, according to Shukan Gendai.

The hashtag #KimJongUndead was trending on Twitter but without any proof of the leader’s death.

Earlier this week, Seoul-based website Daily NK reported that Kim was recovering after undergoing a cardiovascular procedure on April 12. The outlet cited one unnamed source in North Korea.

South Korean government officials and a Chinese official with the Liaison Department challenged subsequent reports suggesting that Kim was in grave danger after surgery, Reuters said. South Korean officials said they had detected no signs of unusual activity in North Korea.

President Donald Trump has downplayed reports that Kim is ill, and an official familiar with U.S. intelligence said the government had no reason to conclude he was seriously ill or unable eventually to reappear in public, Huffington Post reported.

Probably dead, interesting

The interview...

[Les Bain]

Remembering a story that ran where some private school students were surprised when their chubby schoolmate reappeared as the new North Korean dictator after his father passed.
There was speculation he would have heralded a change for the country but in short time it proved to be business as usual.

Doesn't matter whether he's alive or dead, honestly. As long as there's another family member to assume the role.

[Country_Bookie]

I disagree that it doesn't matter. If he's dead, most likely his sister will take over. Women leaders tend to be less obsessed about nuclear weapons and war than male leaders.

[Dizzy28]

Laughs Thatcher and Golda Meirly!!!!

If he passes his sister will rule until his sons become of age.

um, you don't know just how evil women can be sometimes


Especially when they have big shoes to fill, she's gonna overcompensate and be more ruthless than her brother/father.


Women in male dominated positions always over compensate.

Its one out of two things.Either she can be just like them or she can actually do good for the country.Maybe she has a different perspective(hopefully positive) on how the people should be treated and can't say anything.The man killed their own half-brother so who is her?

[matr1x]

Reports is she is way worse




Think azula levels of f**ked up

The top US military contractor executives are females and they killing more people every year than entire countries combined. Statistically women in high places are more evil then men and their number 1 focus is targeting other women who they see as a threat.

Women are poor at leadership. Some are ok, but arrogance is another failing

[shogun]

Ent?

I sense that there might be a health issue going on... but he especially reclusive and secretive, ON TOP of his cabinet and administrative body already having such a long history of secrecy, that your sources have to be damn good to actually get to the truth.

[Numb3r4]

Thoughts and prayers go out the the family in these trying times.

[maj. tom]

Fake news as usual. The man had a press meeting yesterday.

Kim Jong-un has warned North Korean authorities to prepare for the dangers posed to the country by the coronavirus pandemic and a looming typhoon.

Mr Kim's appearance at a party meeting comes after widespread speculation over his health.
