I'll believe it when he is live on camera

[karenogo]

Wow I never been sad when someone’s alive

[STierGamer]

The only time I've ever been sad about someone still alive

[TheMarclan]

The entire world is in quarantine. He’s home watching Tiger King. He’s not dead. Just chillin’.

[cristinaortega]

Kim probably got a calling card and went into hiding before he gets a change of heart

[williamchristian]

Possibly he left Pyongyang due to a Covid-19 outbreak? He’s sealed off from the masses?

[mrhexadus]

big man upstairs.. we desperately need this one to go home... he's been a poor team mate..

[Lavisionacrobatics]

May be he was on vacation for 2 weeks on Miami Beach

[samuelmarzo]

Mission failed, we well get em next time.

[shahriarakram]

Everyone is like where is kim jong ?
But no one asks how is kim jong?

[TheFireMonkey]

it occurs to me that if he was dead or in a vegetative state then the obvious way for the government to keep it quiet would be to take his train there and park it and maybe even have a body double seen walking in some woods or something. Just saying....

[MonkeyOnFleek]

What's the obsession with him being alive or dead here?

[Future_Pheonix]

Even if he dies, they could put a lookalike in his place, or temporarily allow some of his relatives to rule until his son is of age. It won't end so easily... And his scary sister will probably be running things behind scenes.

[rolandtinker]

He's got a bad haircut and he's waiting for it to grow out

[WeAreDIVES]

Yes, It has been rough for me. I will be ok fellow followers!

[Mtthyman]

“A nuclear armed state with no clear successor, in the midst of a pandemic

[pinv]

I got this odd feeling that he's alive

[zteague]
