i swear, western news media is just purposely screwing with people at this point

It's fascinating how the west will claim that the DPRK worships this guy and his every action and bowel movement is mentioned on the evening news over there, but like, the only place actually obsessing over what his personal habits are is the west.

They're just trying to say it will be harder for him to "throw his weight around."

I'll leave now. :P

The word "could" is doing massive work in that headline

Top tier title haha

I don't know if this article is new, but if I recall correctly there was a bunch of articles like this around the second wave of COVID, as people were speculating he had dropped a ton of weight due to being super sick. If this is from that time, that's probably the angle they were going for, rather than gossiping about his eating habits like a tabloid magazine.

"Now, you might think this means there is more food for the starving citizens of North Korea, but, our sources indicate that Kim is actually eating more than he has ever been, and his weight loss is due to his new workout regime (an authoritarian workout regime at that) that he has adopted simply out of spite for his citizens and the desire to deprive them of food." -- RFA, probably.

Lift so hard that the world itself trembles.

South Koreans freak out and make headlines when their pop idols lose 0.0005 grams or earn 0.00003 grams of weight. This is not surprising lol.
