Kim Jong-il Losing his Marbles

Lee Yong-soo

2010.07.07

Watching the same performance again in less than two weeks

Ordering the rebuilding of a theater still in good shape

N. Korea leader Kim Jong-il continues to show signs which put his judgment in doubt, for example, ordering the rebuilding of a theater still in good shape

Quoting a source in China, Radio Free Asia (RFA) based on U.S. reported, "National Theater located in Joong-gu District of Pyongyang was torn down in last May and now being rebuilt. Citizens of Pyongyang have trouble understanding why the building which underwent renovation in 2003 has to be rebuilt."

It was right after his visit to China (May 3~7) when he watched the light comedy 'Echo'(reported in May 9) as his first public event after the visit. He also watched it on Apr. 27 right before his visit to China. He was likely to have ordered the rebuilding after watching the performance second time.

(S. Korea's) national security authorities said, "It is strange (for him) to watch the same performance in less than two weeks. It defies common sense even more to order the rebuilding of the building which was renovated seven years ago. Effects from his stroke must be more serious than we thought."

When he eats inordinate amounts of wagyu beef, golfs incessantly, flies here, there and everywhere on a 747, invites Paul McCartney over for a private concert and can't speak without a teleprompter, then we'll know that ol’ Kimmy has lost it.

Had 2 parents, and have an in-law doing that now. It's a definite sign.

I understand he is quite a golfer. On his first outing he shot not one, but two holes in one! And he has witnesses!

The NK position is that his record is 11 holes-in-one in one round of golf.

They say that, I’m serious.
