Suffering from discomfort

Kim Jong Un is suffering from “discomfort,” state media has said in the first official acknowledgement of ill health after a prolonged period out of the public eye. Kim has not been photographed by state media since appearing at a concert alongside his wife on Sept. 3, fuelling speculation he is suffering from bad health. An expert on the North Korean leadership says:

Based on his gait, it appears he has gout – something (due to) diet and genetic predisposition that has affected other members of the Kim family.
