The Medicis on the Yalu. Palace intrigue, avunculicide, plotting, scheming all rich material for a Shakespeare or a Machiavelli. Napoleon Brandy swilling young Prince Kim heads off a coup d'etat lead by his father's brother and the queen, whose relatives enjoy decadent sensual pleasures while watching Desparate Housewives and applying Jean Patou cosmetics.

As for the two associates, those close to power frequently have a second function, scapegoat material. Regime changes are particularly bad times for such people!

Never hire family, never work for family. It always ends badly and that RUINS family get-togethers at the military reviewing stand on New Year’s. I can hear it now: “Where’s Jang?” He just spoiled the next one.

“Hmmmm ... Death Panels?” Seems so. Tough life to always be looking over your shoulder.

Yes, they apparently got “Fish Lips” Chang). The speculation: his bitch of a wife, “Black Eyes”, a co-tutor of young dictator Kim Jong Un, was behind it and has had her own husband eliminated or at least under house arrest if not sent to the gulag, and his closest associates machine gunned. In fact, death by machine gun has been rather common up there these days. Who controls the launch codes and command authority for their nukes? Whether this means the Boy King KJU is calling the shots, or she is, remains to be seen, but she is not a strumpet to be played with, that’s for sure. Neither is Kim Jong il’s beautiful but very jealous “bring me her head on a plate” type wifey. Chilling.

KN has no one in the top level that has any clue about how to run the country. Anything can happen.
