"Twitter in China is flooded with rumors that North Korean Leader Kim Jong-Un has been killed...Chinese twitter ‘Weibo’ is saying Kim Jong-Un may have died or even been assassinated. Additionally there are reports of massive action at N.Korean embassy in Beijing..More as the situation becomes clear…''

The embassy part puts merit, I feel.

I found this:

what i find odd is this news article only posted 4 hours ago, his brother talking about north korea

bribery and corruption will be the undoing of a country ruled by an inexperienced young man

www.skynews.com.au...

Not seeing any confirmation on this, all the sources (including those in this thread) are just passing along the twitter/weibo rumor.


Although it's worth noting that his brother had this to say when he took power:

They've never met, but Kim Jong Un's brother, who lives a life of exile in Macau, thinks the new leader of North Korea is too inexperienced and will wind up the victim of a military coup. And that may be a sign of hope for North Korea. In his new book My Father, Kim Jong Il, and Me, about Kim Jong Il's eldest son Kim Jong Nam, Japanese journalist Yoji Gomi paints a portrait of a "smart, overweight playboy" (as one professor described Jong Nam) who has little faith in the future of the land of his birth. Gomi told CNN that Jong Nam "thinks he (Kim Jong Un) has a lack of experience, he's too young, and he didn't have enough time to be groomed." Agence France-Press, which previewed the book, quoted Jong Nam: "My father governed the country with the backing of the military, but the power of the military has become too strong," Jong Nam reportedly told Gomi in one of many interviews. "If the succession ends in failure, the military will wield the real power for sure." source

Emphasis mine.

yeah i posted that just above, seems such an obvious connection, these rumours could all be fake, but if not, there's enough reason why this could happen, if it hasnt happened yet, its something that must of def crossed his brothers mind.

Agreed. If this rumor is true, it has to be the military. Right? I am not too familiar with the North Korean Powers That Be, but if he has been assasinated, it has to be a military coup, I would think.

Is there anybody that is more informed about North Korea that has a different idea? Even if a military coup, is that a bad thing? Wonder if they would be um..., less crazy/better leaders/global citizens. I am largely ignorant about what this could mean.
