North Korea's national television "General Secretary Kim's sickened figure hurts my chest"

North Korean state television broadcast an interview with citizens saying that Kim Jong-un, the general secretary, said, "It hurts my heart to see him in a mess."

There is a lot of interest in the intent of the broadcast as South Korean and American media report that General Secretary Kim seems to be thin recently.

Last week, North Korea's state-owned Korean Central Television broadcast a program to ask citizens about the concert that General Secretary Kim Jung-eun watched.

In an interview, a man said, "When I see General Secretary Kim sick, we have the most pain in our hearts. They all say that they naturally weep."

In addition, a North Korean person living in Beijing, China, told NHK that "when I see General Secretary Kim, I feel guilty that we must be more solid."

Regarding Kim, Korean media and CNN TV in the United States have reported that Kim seems to have lost weight recently, comparing images from June and past state-owned television.

It is unusual for state television to broadcast related to the physical condition of the Supreme Leader, and there is a lot of interest in its intentions.

Professor Atsuhito Isozaki of Keio University, who is familiar with the situation in North Korea, said, "I think it also has a meaning to lead to a movement that each and every citizen must do their best in a difficult economic and food situation and that Kim should not be burdened. I am analyzing.

Meanwhile, South Korean news agency Yonhap News Agency reports, "The Ministry of Unification of South Korea does not believe that there is a tendency to judge that Kim's health has deteriorated."
