Interesting article regarding the recent apparent absence of Kim Jong Un in North Korea and North Korean politics.

If he isn't in charge now, is this good or bad for South Korea? Could we see a unification of the peninsula?

North Korea’s Kim Jong-un misses key celebration, but sources say coup rumors are false

North Korea's mysterious leader Kim Jong-un has not been seen in public for 34 days, sparking a wide range of speculation including that the head of one of the world's most secretive country is ailing or has been removed in a secret coup.

CNN said earlier today that tomorrow (Korea time) is an important time, because Kim should appear at some function. If he doesn't appear, it could mean there's trouble brewing. Also, I read (maybe in the article I posted) that the #2 and #3 military leaders were visiting South Korea recently, during the time that Kim was absent from the scene. Could be nothing, but it's interesting, to say the least.

This whole "inheritable regime" thing has got to end, along with NK's utter mismanagement.

I still wonder about the feasibility of unification between the Koreas. I know that the state-run media in the North has likely diluted their citizens' support for the idea over the years, but even they have to know it would be better for them if they did.

As SSG Colette Simons said, Kim has reportedly re-appeared. It's being reported on CNN:

http://www.cnn.com/2014/10/13/world/asia/north-korea-kim-jong-un/index.html?hpt=hp_c2

North Korea says Kim Jong Un has reappeared - CNN.com

North Korean state media has attempted to end the international speculation about the whereabouts of leader Kim Jong Un.

Samsung and Hyundai are in charge, North South East and West. They want the Kaesong

Industrial Zone open so they can use slave labor rather than Union Workers in the south.

Kim Jung Un was never really in charge of the DPRK, yet he plays the role of a demented national leader extremely well.

Kim Il Sung chose Nam Il to lead the Party and take all decisions of the DPRK, because Nam Il was more brutal than himself. Nam Il groomed Kim Jung Il.

A pulled tendon?

C'mon Man! Really!?! This is the best they could come up with??? I am really leaning towards the serious health/no longer in power discussion now.
