What is exactly going on? What do you think is going on?
Kim Jong Undead, the harbinger of the Zombie Apocalypse!
Are North Koreans up to something, do you think?
Not if the rumor originated in China.

This seems to explain what happened: Kim Jong-il 70th birthday celebration at the NK embassy in Beijing.
Too bad it is just a rumor.
I heard the rumor might have been started by North Koreans to destabilize South Korea so they are in high alert mode. Not sure what to believe.
You heard a rumor about the rumor? :dubious:
Yes, at this stage. :dubious:
Maybe he really is dead, but they are waiting for the story about Whitney’s death to die down so this news won’t be buried on page 7 of the newspapers.
IF he’s dead, I score a lot of points in the Dead Pool.
And North Korea is going to collapse.
Nothing but win here, folks…
It would be a really, REALLY long road back for the citizens of North Korea, if their charade of a government suddenly up and disappeared.
They’re so entrenched in their beliefs, and so isolated, that even if their regime were over tomorrow, I would wager it’d take 50-100 years for North Koreans to “catch up”. Even if the two Koreas were to reunite peacefully (the best possible and least likely scenario) how in the world would they even BEGIN to start re-educating 25 million brainwashed zombies? While keeping them fed and working, and establishing an economy and not losing sight of national security. (Let us not forget North Korea has nuclear weapons and South Korea doesn’t.) It would be quite a task. Also a very expensive undertaking. I sure hope the US doesn’t volunteer to help take things in hand.
