Just a few days ago, it was reported that a normal day in US President Donald Trump's life involves him ordering about a dozen diet cokes and watching four-eight hours of TV. While he has denied these claims and has called it "another false story," it has still given people a hint of what he usually does, apart from his presidential duties.
However, how many of us can say the same about North Korean leader Kim Jong un? The leader is known to live a very private life and people outside the country, until a few years ago, didn't even know if he was married or who he was married to. Hence, knowing the details of what a normal day in Kim's life involves was out of question. Well, until now!
It looks like when Kim is not test-firing ballistic missiles, having a war or words with Trump, and banning drinking and singing in North Korea to tighten control on citizens, he spends his time controlling the weather. Yes, you heard it right! At least that is what state media KCNA claims.
Photos of Kim standing atop Mount Paektu, a volcano on the North Korea-China border, were released on Saturday and KCNA claimed that the weather changed on the 9,000-foot mountain after the leader arrived. While the mountain usually witnesses wintry weather with snow and blizzard this time of the year, Kim apparently brought sunshine, the agency said.
It was a "marvellous scene with glee at the reappearance of its great master" and the mountain showed "fine weather unprecedented," KCNA said, according to the Washington Post. "His eyes reflected the strong beams of the gifted great person seeing in the majestic spirit of Mt. Paektu the appearance of a powerful socialist nation which dynamically advances full of vigor without vacillation at any raving dirty wind on the planet," the article on the agency read.
The state-run media also said that the North Korean leader had climbed the same mountain about two years ago and many believe that his trek is often followed by a drastic step. While it was the execution of his uncle the last time, people cannot help but wonder what could be expected now.
"It's unlikely that Kim went up the so-called sacred mountain for fresh air. He is likely to have considered how he will formulate external policies after having declared the regime a nuclear state," a source in South Korea said, according to United Press International.
Strangely, this is not the first time KCNA has made such bizarre claims. It has earlier said that the hermetic leader could drive when he was just three-years-old and could sail by the age of nine. According to Newsweek, North Korea in 2015 claimed that Kim and a few scientists had formulated a wonder drug that could cure AIDS, Ebola, various types of cancers, heart disease, impotence, "harm from use of computers," and could even reverse ageing.
