South Korea's National Intelligence Service (NIS) estimates that North Korean leader Kim Jong Un is suffering from severe obesity, but no signs of serious health deterioration have been identified at this stage. This was reported in South Korea following a briefing by intelligence officials to lawmakers.
According to reports, lawmakers present at the briefing stated that, based on the NIS assessment, Kim's weight is estimated to be over 140 kilograms, placing him at high risk for obesity-related health issues.
