Kim Jong-un is in coma claims South Korean diplomat as North Korea passes power to Kim Yo-jong

New Delhi: Fuelling rumours about the failing health condition of North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, a former aide to South Korea’s late president Kim Dae-Jung, Chang Song-min has claimed that Kim is in a coma and that’s why his sister Kim Yo-jong has been given powers.

“I assess him to be in a coma, but his life has not ended. A complete succession structure has not been formed, so Kim Yo-jong is being brought to the fore as the vacuum cannot be maintained for a prolonged period,” Chang said in an interview according to a report by South Korean media.

Yeah, kind of like ROCKY XXVI but at least there were some minor subplot changes.

You're a sick puppy even thinking that way.

My real problem is that you beat me to saying it.

When he turns green and starts reeking like old cheese, I’ll believe it.
No, they will pickle him like Lenin. Maybe even automate him for ceremonial occasions.

Hey, there you go. A remote-controlled Weekend At Bernie's with a Playstation pad. Even I'd like to watch. I can hear his successor now: "OK, make Fatso turn his head and wave to the troops."

Steel Rain is a 2017 South Korean movie that included as key to the plot the Lil Kim is in a coma and needs medical attention in South Korea.

I suspect the only way Sis will get a man is on a Blind Date.
Once you know who she is, and what she’s capable of, that going to result in some level of Performance Anxiety for most men. “You not performing!! I hate you! Guard, take him away!”

Maybe he just can’t tear himself away from the video games.

Maybe he's had Disneyland all to himself.

[One problem could be her perceived need to demonstrate toughness in that culture.]


A dictator has to ward off potential challengers with exemplary killings - oppose him and you and your family will be killed as an example to all who might make a grab for the throne. While our caricature of dictatorships is of drones in thrall to the queen of the lot, in reality, they are nests of intrigue, with any number of individuals and cliques all looking to put themselves on the throne. So if she’s next in line, she needs to kill potential rivals in order to consolidate her power. If she is wrong-footed, she will be killed, probably with the rest of Kim Il-sung’s progeny. If she goes down, what’s equally possible is a puppet, perhaps a child, from Kim Il-sung’s bloodline being put up as a figurehead, while the true power rules as his guardian. Not much different from Japan’s thousand-year rule by shoguns in which emperors were puppets on a string.
