It looks like he used too much Butch Wax in his “haircraft carrier”. [Bad pun, but I couldn't help it.]

I think Kim Jong Un watched
The Interview on Netfricks and decided he liked the look.

I had a doctor tell me once that the loss of the outer third of ones eyebrows may be a symptom of hypothyroidism. One can hope.
