Death Rumors Swirl Around Kim Jong-un, Online Mockery


95 views

Rumors have been swirling the past few days about Kim Jong-un, with many saying he is dead or in a “vegetative state”.

Other sources claim he is still alive and doing just fine.

What to believe?

Let’s take a look.

First I want to start in perhaps an unusal place:  prophecy.

Prophet Charlie Shamp posted a prophecy on March 10, 2018 about Kim Jong-un and it is fascinating to read right now, over two years later.

Take a look at this recent Facebook post:

If you can't read that or the post gets taken down, here's what it says:

Just in case some may think that Kim Yo-jong is a non factor in the future of North Korea. It’s well documented what I was shown on March 5, 2018.

On March 5, 2018, I had one of the most fascinating and in depth dreams about Kim Jong Un and his sister Kim Yo-jong. In this dream a pristine 1953 white Cadillac Eldorado convertible pulled up in front of my home. Driving the car was none other then the North Korean dictator, Kim Jong Un. I walked out of my house to meet and greet him, it felt as though we had known each other for many many years and I was a close family friend. He came to show me the latest car that he had recently purchased. I jumped into the passenger seat and we were off cruising through the streets. While he seemed content to just want to talk about the car and life. I, on the other hand, was sent to discuss a much more important and delicate matter. While it was Kim driving the car in the dream I was directing him where to go. Unknown to him I had worked out a secret location with the United States government to open up a discussion between Kim and President Donald Trump. After awhile we finally reached our destination and he placed the car in park. Again, it seemed as though I had known this man for many years and that we were very close. I looked at Kim and said, "I have a most urgent matter I must discuss with you and this is why I have brought you here to this place." I told him that I had been working diligently with the CIA and the United States for many years relaying information concerning him and his family. He looked at me in shock as I disclosed many things to him about my dealings with the United States. I also spoke to him about several different options that the United States government was presently looking at to remove him from power, which I can not discuss in detail publicly in this prophetic word. I gave him several different options on how to precede in what was about to be a long negotiation with several different nations. Suddenly, he broke down and began to weep uncontrollably. We embraced and I began to speak of great change that needed to take place in North Korea if it was to survive. I told Kim of his destiny and purpose as not a dictator, but a liberator. That Jesus Christ was calling him to change his nation in one generation, to liberate the nation and break down the walls of separation between the North and South. We prayed together and he accepted the Lord as his personal Savior. It was a sight to see, even his face was changed as liberty came! I reached into my pocket and pulled out my cellphone to make a call to President Donald Trump and the Pentagon, but my phone would not work. I tried several times to make the call, but they all failed. I even tried to take a picture of Kim and I together and send a text, but it would not go through.

The dream fades to another scene and I’m once again back at my house. Suddenly the scenario plays out again only this time it is Kim Yo-jong, his sister driving the car. The dream plays out again exactly the same with his sister and ending with me attempting to make connection with the United States government only to fail to make the call because of the cellphone. In the dream I found both him and his sister to be broken and wanting change for North Korea. It felt as though they were weary and hoped for a new day for the nation. I truly believe something shocking is coming from North Korea that none of us could have expected, but we must pray!

-Prophet Charlie Shamp

And from the website itself, with a time stamp of March 10, 2018 you can read this from Charlie:

We can see by a study of the Bible that God has many ways of communicating with His sons and daughters. Throughout the scriptures we see various ways in which God relayed detailed information about future events and situations for people and nations, things that He had set in order in the future for the benefit of mankind. One of His miraculous ways of speaking to us is through the avenue of dreams. The book of Job chapter thirty three describes how God speaks through dreams, "For God speaketh once, yea twice, yet man perceiveth it not. In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falleth upon men, in slumberings upon the bed; Then he openeth the ears of men, and sealeth their instruction, That he may withdraw man from his purpose, and hide pride from man. He keepeth back his soul from the pit, and his life from perishing by the sword." (Job 33:14-18) 

God is always speaking, but it is our job to distinguish His ways of communication especially when it comes to delicate matters involving nations and world leaders. 

On March 5, 2018, I had one of the most fascinating and in depth dreams about Kim Jong Un and his sister Kim Yo-jong. In this dream a pristine 1953 white Cadillac Eldorado convertible pulled up in front of my home. Driving the car was none other then the North Korean dictator, Kim Jong Un. I walked out of my house to meet and greet him, it felt as though we had known each other for many many years and I was a close family friend. He came to show me the latest car that he had recently purchased. I jumped into the passenger seat and we were off cruising through the streets. While he seemed content to just want to talk about the car and life. I, on the other hand, was sent to discuss a much more important and delicate matter. While it was Kim driving the car in the dream I was directing him where to go. Unknown to him I had worked out a secret location with the United States government to open up a discussion between Kim and President Donald Trump. After awhile we finally reached our destination and he placed the car in park. Again, it seemed as though I had known this man for many years and that we were very close. I looked at Kim and said, "I have a most urgent matter I must discuss with you and this is why I have brought you here to this place." I told him that I had been working diligently with the CIA and the United States for many years relaying information concerning him and his family. He looked at me in shock as I disclosed many things to him about my dealings with the United States. I also spoke to him about several different options that the United States government was presently looking at to remove him from power, which I can not discuss in detail publicly in this prophetic word.

I tried several times to make the call, but they all failed. I even tried to take a picture of Kim and I together and send a text, but it would not go through.

The dream fades to another scene and I’m once again back at my house. Suddenly the scenario plays out again only this time it is Kim Yo-jong, his sister driving the car. The dream plays out again exactly the same with his sister and ending with me attempting to make connection with the United States government only to fail to make the call because of the cellphone. In the dream I found both him and his sister to be broken and wanting change for North Korea. It felt as though they were weary and hoped for a new day for the nation. I truly believe something shocking is coming from North Korea that none of us could have expected, but we must pray! 

Since this was a dream there were a few symbols that I feel were significant that I want to discuss in an attempt to draw out information for us to pray into over the next several months. We understand that there are layers within dreams, as well as there are three distinct pieces to anything God says. First, there is the initial revelation then there is the interpretation and finally there is the application. These three are essential in deciphering anything that God is saying. There are mainly two points of interest that I want to key in on. 

First, the automobile that was driven by both Kim and his sister,  the pristine 1953 white Cadillac Eldorado convertible, I believe is something significant. El Dorado is Spanish for “the golden one”, which would describe the position that Both Kim and his sister have been placed in as leaders of the nation. I believe overall the car represented the Nation of North Korea. Cadillacs often represent in dreams a decision making style that is focused on appearing impressive to others. This would make sense in the case of North Korea because they are always presenting the nation to others as a powerful force in the world. They have made a decision to deceive others into believing they have power when in fact the dynasty is very broken. They are at a crossroads and a decision must be made.

I believe the Convertible represents a change and conversion that can take place both with Kim, his sister and the nation as a whole. I believe it speaks to converts to Christianity and a possible open heaven coming over the nation of North Korea, this is God’s greatest desire! The color white and year of the car also is significant in that 1953 was the year of the cease fire and seemingly the end of the Korean war. I believe the Lord is wanting to wash away the pain of that war and bring a pure discussion of reunification of the North and South. 

Finally my greatest concern was this issue with the cellphone. It spoke to me deeply that the enemy would love to bring a miscommunication and cut communications between North Korea and America before a true discussion can be brought forth. I can even see hindrances being connected to the media and how they tend to twist things. I believe we are at a critical time in human history and we desperately need to pray this situation through to victory. We need to pray for the conversion of Kim and his sister to the Lord, as well as, pray all forms of communication stay open so that God’s will can come to pass for this nation. It is my deepest desire to see transformation for Korea. Please let us stay focused and pray through this dream and all that the Lord is speaking at this time. 

-Prophet Charlie Shamp

Now let's check out what the news is reporting:

Some say he is dead or brain dead or in a vegetative state:

From the NY Post:

North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un is in a “vegetative state” after he underwent heart surgery earlier this month, a Japanese magazine says.

The weekly Shukan Gendai reported Friday that a Chinese medic sent to North Korea as part of a team to treat Kim believed a delay in a simple procedure left the leader severely ill, Reuters reported.

North Korean media hasn’t mentioned Kim’s health or whereabouts, even though reports by other media have sparked international speculation about his well-being.

The Chinese expert told the magazine that Kim clutched his chest and fell to the ground on a visit to the countryside earlier this month. A doctor accompanying Kim performed CPR and took him to a nearby hospital.

Kim, believed to be 36, needed a stent procedure, which calls for placing a tube into a congested blood vessel to allow blood to keep flowing to the heart, according to Shukan Gendai.

The hashtag #KimJongUndead was trending on Twitter but without any proof of the leader’s death.

Earlier this week, Seoul-based website Daily NK reported that Kim was recovering after undergoing a cardiovascular procedure on April 12. The outlet cited one unnamed source in North Korea.

South Korean government officials and a Chinese official with the Liaison Department challenged subsequent reports suggesting that Kim was in grave danger after surgery, Reuters said. South Korean officials said they had detected no signs of unusual activity in North Korea.

Other's say he is alive and well:

From CNN:

South Korea continued to pour water on mounting speculation about the health of North Korea's leader Kim Jong Un, telling CNN he is "alive and well." 

"Our government position is firm," Moon Chung-in, the top foreign policy adviser to South Korean President Moon Jae-in, told CNN. "Kim Jong Un is alive and well. He has been staying in the Wonsan area since April 13. No suspicious movements have so far been detected." 

Questions were raised about Kim's well-being after he missed the celebration of his grandfather's birthday on April 15. He had been seen four days before that at a politburo meeting, according to North Korean state media, KCNA. 

CNN reported earlier in the week that the United States is monitoring intelligence that Kim is "in grave danger after a surgery," according to a US official. Another US official told CNN Monday that the concerns about Kim's health are credible, but their severity is hard to assess.

It followed a report by Daily NK, an online newspaper based in South Korea that focuses on North Korea, that Kim reportedly received a cardiovascular procedure because of "excessive smoking, obesity, and overwork." It added that the leader is now receiving treatment in a villa in Hyangsan County.

After assessing that Kim's condition had improved, most of the medical team treating him returned to Pyongyang on April 19 while some of them remained to oversee his recovery, according to the news site. CNN is unable to independently confirm the report.

On Sunday though, North Korean state newspaper Rodong Sinmun said Kim sent thanks to workers who helped in remodeling the city of Samjiyon in North Korea. CNN cannot independently confirm the authenticity of Sunday's report and whether the note of thanks came directly from the leader. 

It is not the first time North Korean media has reported on Kim's activities since news of his potential health issues emerged.

In either event, all speculation is now turning to Kim's sister, who would be the heir to the throne.

And by many accounts, she seems cold-blooded and much worse than Kim himself.

From Fox News:

North Korea’s male-dominated Kim dynasty may be about to hand over the keys to the Hermit Kingdom to a woman.

With speculation swirling over Kim Jong Un’s health, all eyes have turned to his sister and closest confidant, Kim Yo Jong, as his most likely successor.

Yo Jong may lack the bizarre, high-fade bouffants of the three generations of male rulers in her family, but she shares her brother’s secrecy and penchant for lashing out against political adversaries

Still, much about her remains a mystery.

Yo Jong’s age is not exactly clear, though she’s believed to be in her early 30s, a few years younger than Jong Un.

She’s kept a low profile, only last month releasing her first public statement, mocking South Korea as a “frightening dog barking” for opposing a live-fire military demonstration.

But she’s still been active enough behind the scenes to suggest she would serve with an iron fist. Like other North Korea officials, she was blacklisted by the US Treasury Department in 2017 for “severe human rights abuses.”

Kim Yo Jong, the sister of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, attended the Olympic Games opening ceremony in the South. She will be the first member of North Korea's ruling family to visit the South in about 60 years. (Reuters)

Yo Jong has a reputation for aggressively pushing North Korea propaganda and was among the officials who have worked to enact “rigid censorship policies and conceals its inhumane and oppressive behavior,” the department said at the time.

“Among the North’s power elite, Kim Yo Jong has the highest chance to inherit power, and I think that possibility is more than 90%,” an analyst told the Associated Press.

Yo Jong may have to contend with her other brother, Kim Jong Chol for power —  though he was already passed over when their father chose Kim as the next in line to serve.

She has been routinely observed at her brother’s side at public appearances and is involved in relations with Washington and South Korea, whose media has dubbed her “the Ivanka Trump of North Korea.”

Perhaps her most prominent moment in the spotlight came during the 2018 Winter Olympics in South Korea, where she served as a delegate and sat alongside South Korean President Moon Jae-in.

In the late 1990s, she joined Kim Jong Un in attending primary school in Berne, Switzerland. The two lived in a private home with staff and bodyguards, according to North Korea Leadership Watch.

There’s not much known about her life between her time in Switzerland and 2007, when she began playing a role in the ruling party, other than that she was reportedly a favorite of her father, Kim Jong Il, who ruled from 1994 to his death in 2011.

“She has gotten a lot more serious,’’ Michael Madden, a government consultant who manages the Web site North Korea Leadership Watch, told the New Yorker.

“When you see footage of her on the receiving lines, she is smiling, a nice friendly young woman, but when she is out of those lines, the smile vanishes and she even looks like Kim Jong Il.’’

And nothing has stopped the memes from rolling in online:
