North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un is 'alive and well', a South Korean official has said.
Foreign policy adviser Chung-in Moon said his government's position is firmly that the despot is not dead.
The aide said Kim had been living in the Wonsan area of the country since April 13, adding to Fox: 'No suspicious movements have so far been detected.'
Rumours of his death emerged from the vice director of Hong Kong Satellite Television Shijian Xingzou, who claimed a 'very solid source' told her Kim was dead.
She has 15million followers on Chinese social media Weibo, and is also the niece of one of the country's foreign ministers.
Separately, a Japanese media outlet claimed Kim was in a 'vegetative state' after he underwent heart surgery earlier in the month.
The despot has not been seen publicly since April 11 when he led a meeting of the ruling Workers' Party committee of policy makers, North Korean state media said.
But Chung-in Moon's comments appear to have poured cold water on the astonishing claims that he had passed away.
North Korean defectors agree, saying it is hard to believe the information would be leaked by his trusted aides.
Joo Sung-ha, a North Korean defector turned journalist, said in a Facebook post reported by the New York Times that it was reasonable to believe Kim had health problems, but that he had zero trust in reports why the leader has faced a medical emergency. 'The health of the Kim family is the secret among secrets,' he said.
Thae Yong-ho, a former North Korean diplomat who also defected, said it was hard to believe any reliable information about Kim had been leaked by his most trusted aids.

“How is Ruth Buzzy Ginsberg doing?”
still alive along with Keith Richards and Hillary Clinton.
You mean... he's gone full Biden?
It’s his government’s firm “position” that Kim is alive? That doesn’t sound like anyone knows. And the insistence that the family’s health is the secret among secrets is also not very convincing. If he’s dead or incapacitated that would tempt some to break the secret.
And a cold one afterward.
His breathing looks very labored in that video.
South Korea doesn’t want instability in the North, because they would fear millions of refugees pouring across the border.
I’m waiting on an opinion from Miracle Max - after all, he may just be mostly dead.
Daily mail likes to create their own stories......And moon would say what is necessary to keep calm on his border with the north....so too China.
Time will tell.
Greater than zero chance she poisoned him.
Her staff is still breathing and they are they ones doing all the work.
Preceded by two raw eggs and followed by an ice bath.
Come on ya'll. This is from an "official commie propigsndist" so whats not to believe? His fst ass sitting there. Turns his head and he's out of breath. This is a real healthy guy. Fit as a fiddle and ready for killing!
“Kim Jong-Un ‘is alive and well’...”
It all depends on what the meaning of ‘is’ is.
Kim, I mean Elvis, has left the building.
He is like a tomato.
People think he is a vegetable, but he is a fruit.
After which he will go swimming with his buddy, Chairman Mao.
