Yeah, one shitty source in japan does not make it true... it'll be interesting to see how this all plays out.
sorry that was the link I got from reddit here’s Fox News on it New York post reporting he’s actually dead
I've heard reports that his sister is been quietly moving up into the inner-circle, and could be tagged next. I would hope that the State Department sees the once-in-a-lifetime importunity to try and reach out, and walk that country back from the ledge, but with what's happened over the last 4 months....... I'm just hoping everyone's hands are away from the "fire-Missile" buttons....
Good luck with that if the sister ends up in charge. Female dictator in her early 30s coming to power unexpectedly? Yeah, that's a recipe for some pretty extreme brutality to consolidate her position. Especially with the older brother still alive. Even if he doesn't want to be involved, there would likely be some people in power who might try to use him to shore up their own situation.
It's amazing how we're all just twiddling our thumbs waiting to hear if a brutal dictator is dead, and it's barely news because of all the other shit going on.
If the rumors are to be believed, complications from heart surgery. Either that or the surgery went fine and he's recuperating. Or there never was a surgery. Who knows.
multiple reports are that he needed a stent put into his heart, and either it was delayed for too long, or something went wrong during the procedure.
In Japan, heart surgeon. Number one. Steady hand. One day, yakuza boss need new heart. I do operation. But mistake! Yakuza boss die! Yakuza very mad! I hide fishing boat, come to America. No English, no food, no money. Darryl give me job. Now I have house, American car and new woman. Darryl save life. My big secret. I kill yakuza boss on purpose. I good surgeon. The best!
From what I've read she's more insane then him. So yeah, it may not be the "Ding Dong the Witch is Dead" moment everyone thinks it will be.

I wonder what happens to the people of North Korea now? They have to be just completely gutted by COVID. And now their god hero and idol dies. They must think it’s the end of times right?
alls I'm hoping is that whoever walks in as "the Boss" doesn't shoot 2 Generals in the face, and launch a missile, just to make a statement ...
