“A North Korean singer said to be Kim Jong-Un’s ex-girlfriend and reported to have been executed by firing squad last year has appeared on state television, apparently alive and well.”

Most of us read about the execution from a highly authoritative source: Straightdope (Although the OP’s initial post stated it was not confirmed, there was little doubt elsewhere in the thread)  
[http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=16619159](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=16619159)

So does anyone here follow the back-from-the-dead sites (which surely must exist) and can thus comment?

PS. Some of us believe the guy is totally crazy and thus don’t require a high level of evidence about almost anything concerning him.

For those of us that read World War Z this is unsettling.

A couple of weeks ago Dennis Rodman was interviewed on CNN about his BFF. He says that he was amazed at the amount of love people showed for Kim Jong Un - the way they’d weep when he’d walk into the room. Rodman also claimed that Kim’s uncle was there the whole time as well, right with the entourage. He claimed that the stories about his execution were lies made up by the western press.

With a cite like Dennis Rodman, you know it has to be true!

Do we have to make a retroactive adjustment to last year’s death pool?

Of course she’s back from the dead. We knew from the beginning that she was Un-executed.

Wait, did Kim Jong-Un execute his girlfriend?

Or, did Kim Jong un-execute his girlfriend?

Insert pointless joke about how they all look alike… or not.
