North Korean leader Kim Jong-un 'has illness'
CNN ^ | 26 September 2014 | CNN

Posted on 09/26/2014 1:34:53 PM PDT by Dallas59

North Korean leader Kim Jong-un has an unspecified medical problem, state media report, after he failed to appear at a key political event.

A report on state television said on Thursday that Mr Kim, 31, was in an "uncomfortable physical condition" but gave no details.

Earlier, the leader was absent from a session of the Supreme People's Assembly - North Korea's legislature.

Mr Kim has not been seen in public for more than three weeks.

His non-appearance at the SPA - to which he was elected in March with 100% of the vote - on Thursday prompted renewed speculation about the leader's whereabouts.

The report on state-run Central Television later in the day showed footage of the leader limping during one of his regular inspection tours back in July.

Does being a fat pig count as an illness?

A$$ raped by a rabid goat would be too much to hope for?

I wonder what country the doctors who will be able to actually help him come from, and the medicine he needs as well.

Perhaps a Rue-Y might be considered from the looks of him.

(but I sure as hell wouldn’t want to be the poor guy who mentions that option to him...)
