SEOUL, Feb. 27 (Yonhap) -- North Korean leader Kim Jong-il increased the number of his public visits three-fold this month from his average activities for February in recent years, Seoul officials said Friday.
Kim appeared publicly 15 times this month, compared to an average 5.3 visits he made in February between 2000 and last year, said the Unification Ministry. This year's figure was the highest since he took the rein of the country after his father and North Korean founder Kim Il-sung's death in 1994.
The 67-year-old Kim dropped out of public view for weeks after his suspected stroke in August. His absence from the important 60th anniversary of the country's founding in September spurred rumors that he might be seriously ill.

Five times in 9 years and then 15 times in one month? Either he has assumed room temperature, or he’s undergone a miraculous recovery that makes him look and feel 15 years younger. Especially in pictures.

Looks like the hardliners in China have signaled for their pitbull to forceably eject US influence from the penisula. Wouldn’t that be something if Obama lost Korea to China by way of NK.
