Washington Post (WP) reported on the 26th (local time) that North Korea's Chairman Kim Jong-un's whereabouts and health were in the middle of a few days, with all sorts of mischief in Pyongyang.

The author is Anna Pyfield, WP's long-time reporter, who has been covering North Korea. He looks back on several occasions when the North Korean leader's death story has been found to be fake, and he knows Kim's status until North Korea announces it or until Kim reveals it. I drew a line that I could not.

However, he said in the floating rumor, the situation seems a little different than usual, as Kim is firmly positioned to have had any heart-related surgery.

When Pyfield became known that Chairman Kim was not in Pyongyang, words were coming and going over whether Pyongyang, who has ruled for over 8 years in Pyongyang, where elites under the North Korean regime have gathered, is currently hopeless, and the stockpiles reflect uneasy sentiment. He said it was going on.

However, the residents of Pyongyang reportedly stocked everything from detergents to rice, liquor, and electronics. At first, they bought it mainly for imported goods, but from a few days ago, they also stocked domestic products such as canned fish and tobacco.

He added that helicopters are flying low in Pyongyang, and that trains in North Korea and trains outside China's borders are said to be disrupting.

Among North Korean experts, there is speculation that Kim is doing "social distance" from Corona 19, starting from the speculation that "something is wrong" for Kim's absence from attending the ceremony on Sunday (Sunday). "There are some opinions about how confident he is in his own career," he said.

In fact, Chairman Kim said that he has been in power for a longer period of time than any other leader in Korea, Japan and China, as well as in the United States and Russia.

However, if Kim died in North Korea, where the 'Kim's baekdu lineage' ruled for the third time, Pyfield pointed out that the wave is difficult to measure.

In particular, unlike President Kim Il-sung and Kim Jong-il, who died after designating a successor while being elderly, he added that it is impossible to know who will be the successor if Kim is young.In the absence of a definite male heir, Pyfield said that Kim's younger brother, Kim Yeo-jung, the first vice president of the Labor Party, is the only sure candidate, but the young woman is a weakness.

But he pointed out, "I don't know how Kim Yeo-jung will be a leader in North Korea, but I don't know how she will be a leader. There's nobody else."
