Spy Agency Dismisses Kim Jong-un Death Rumors
South Korea's spy agency reported to a parliamentary committee on Friday that recent social media rumors claiming North Korean leader Kim Jong-un might have died are false, according to Yonhap and the Korea Times. The agency's assessment, relayed by sources, indicates no unusual signs regarding Kim's health, with one report noting he is in a state of 'severe obesity' around 140 kilograms but showing no anomalies. Korean media coverage focuses on the official denial rather than public reaction, with outlets like KBS World and the Korea Times also reporting on related inter-Korean tensions, including Kim Yo-jong's warnings of border countermeasures and propaganda loudspeakers.
