Speculation about the health of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un is abounding. In fact, from the beginning of his dictatorship, reports have appeared that Kim Jong Un is not in the best shape. This time, however, there are signals to the media that North Korea may be getting ready for the leader’s departure. What could be wrong with a dictator?

Kim Jong Un is thinning in his eyes
North Korea may be getting ready for Kim Jong Un’s departure. Such conclusions, based on an analysis of the overall situation, are made by Business Insider. Although things go wrong in the country, the dictator appears less and less in public. In turn, the political changes taking place in the country may indicate that North Korea is getting ready to resign at the summit.
The mere fact that Kim Jong Un avoids public speaking might indicate that the dictator is not feeling well. The rumors about his health, however, are fueling something else. When the cameras captured Kim Jong Un in September, it turned out that he had clearly lost weight. Comparing his photos from November 2020 and September 2021, you can even get the impression that they are two different people. Kim Jong Un from a year ago is clearly rounded, while less than 12 months later his face is much more slender.

This fact did not escape the attention of the foreign media, which already in June this year. they speculated that something was wrong with the dictator. It was suggested then that Kim, who was about 170 cm, lost even 20 kg (from about 140 kg). The dictator in the photos from September looked even thinner.
However, Hong Min, an analyst at Seoul’s Korea Institute for National Unification, suggested that the dictator’s decline in weight was not a disturbing symptom. Rather, it was to show that Kim Jong Un went on a diet to lose excess kilos.
And in fact, it would be fully justified, because assuming that the dictator, at 170 cm tall, currently weighs 120 kg, he has a BMI of 41,52. This means obesity of the third degree, and therefore a very dangerous condition for health. Morbid obesity can cause heart disease or diabetes, and lead to ischemic stroke or heart attack. And let us remind you that a year ago the 37-year-old weighed about 20 kg more, so his body was burdened more by obesity.

Can Kim Jong Un get sick?
In the case of Kim Jong Un, the only certainty at the moment is that he is losing weight and suffering from obesity. Sudden weight loss, if not dietary, may indicate serious medical conditions, including cancer. And this one, taking into account the alleged lifestyle of the dictator (apparently he does not shy away from alcohol and also smokes cigarettes), is a real possibility. Alcohol in combination with tobacco promotes laryngeal cancer in particular, but not only. Recent research has linked alcohol to cancers of the esophagus, throat, liver, colon and anus. As for cigarettes, they are associated with lung and prostate cancer.

Of course, excessive alcohol consumption also leads to cirrhosis of the liver. In the case of Kim Jong Un, cardiovascular diseases may also be involved. There have been cases of serious heart problems in his family. Additionally, the cardiovascular system weakens the dictator’s lifestyle and weight.
Is Kim Jong Un actually dying? It is not known how much truth is in the rumors that are now based only on political reshuffles and the dictator’s decline in weight. What is certain, however, is that the lifestyle of the 37-year-old is not conducive to a long healthy life. While obesity treatment, if that’s what we’re dealing with now, is definitely a good change.
