[Seoul = Daisuke Kinoshita]South Korea’s intelligence agency, the National Intelligence Service,
The NIS reported that the North Korean authorities gathered the latest medical information overseas for insomnia treatment for a top-ranking person in April. A large amount of foreign cigarettes and high-end snacks are being brought into North Korea, and the possibility of Kim Jong-un suffering from insomnia due to alcohol and nicotine addiction is also being watched.
An artificial intelligence (AI) analysis estimates that Kim Jong-un weighs in the mid-140kg range. Two years ago, he gained attention for his weight loss of 10-20kg from 140kg before, but he has rebounded.
In North Korea, corn prices rose by regarding 60% from the previous year and rice prices rose by nearly 30% due to the worsening food situation, reaching the highest levels since Kim Jong-un took office. He also pointed out that organized crime such as robbery of goods using bombs occurred, and that the number of suicides increased by 40% from the previous year.
South Korean media speculate that Kim Jong-un’s health may be the result of stress caused by recent domestic and international trends.
