North Korea says nothing wrong with leader Kim Jong-Un's health: South Korea

SEOUL: There is nothing wrong with the health of North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, a senior North Korean official said during an extremely rare visit to the South, after rumours of a debilitating illness or even a coup in Pyongyang.

South Korea's unification minister Ryoo Kihl-Jae, speaking on a television talk show Sunday, quoted Kim Yang-Gon as saying: "There is nothing wrong with the health of Secretary Kim".

Kim Yang-Gon, who heads a ruling party department in charge of South Korea-related affairs, visited the South's western port of Incheon Saturday to attend the closing ceremony of the Asian Games, along with two other high-ranking officials.

The delegation, led by Pyongyang's second most powerful man, Hwang Pyong-So, flew back to Pyongyang late Saturday after a series of meetings with Ryoo and other South Korean officials.

The minister said Hwang had asked him to deliver a "heartfelt greeting" from Kim Jong-un to South Korean President Park Geun-Hye, but there was no specific message from the leader.

The North's leader has not been seen in public for a month, fuelling rumours about his health and even triggering reports of a coup.

Kim3 won’t be allowed to defect.

Although I once wrote a satire about that kind of thing.

To where would Dear Leader defect? Interesting question...

I see four options, in no particular order:

1) Mongolia
2) Argentina
3) Zimbabwe
4) St. Petersburg (the original one, not where the Rays play)

My guess is he can’t handle warm weather, so no defecting to Myanmar, Iran, or Cuba for Kim.

Yep. Dead is very “stable”. J/K, I have no idea of his status. Now if the NK Rep. had said “he’s pining for the fjords” Then I might believe lil’ Kim is dead.

As someone who has spent many years in the cold, It's VERY easy to get used to warm weather in December. You hang the long sleeve shirts on the other side of the closet, the sweaters are moved to the bottom drawers.

I'll vote for Cuba or Libya, perhaps Iran or Saudi Arabia. Remember that Idi Amin had protection in Saudi Arabia 'til he died, in 2003...
