SEOUL (Reuters) – South Korea’s assessment is that North Korean leader Kim Jong Un did not have a surgery, local news outlet Yonhap said, citing an unidentified senior official at presidential Blue House.
“There were speculative reports that Chairman Kim underwent a surgery citing some difference to his walk,” the official was cited as saying.
“We have reasons to believe that there was no surgery, but cannot disclose such details.”
