North Korea: There are many rumors about North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un. It is being said that he had a heart operation, after which his health has worsened. Another report said that he was brain dead. There are reports coming from inside North Korea that Kim Jong is completely healthy.
However, in this era of rumors, the name of Kim Jong Un's uncle suddenly started coming up in North Korea. Kim Pyong Il, who had been living outside North Korea for 40 years, but is now considered the heir to the throne of North Korea.
65-year-old Kim Pyong Il is the last known son of North Korean founder Kim Il Sung. Kim Pyong Il spent nearly four decades abroad in diplomatic positions in Hungary, Bulgaria, Finland, Poland and the Czech Republic after losing to her half-brother, Kim Jong Il in the 1970s.
Last year, he returned to Pyongyang. However, Kim Pyong Il was effectively sidelined. He was largely cut off from the state media and was never allowed to develop enough power to become a serious challenge to the leadership.
Some observers in North Korea say he can take the reins of governance from 36-year-old Kim Jong-un because he has no successor. Kim also has blood in her veins and is also a male.
According to Thao Yong Ho, North Korea's deputy ambassador to Britain, conservative male leader Kim Jong Un's younger sister Kim Yong-jong in Pyongyang will oppose power, which has been helping to make policy for North Korea for years.
Has been standing with her brother for Let us tell that Thao fled to South Korea in 2016. He said that Kim Yo Jong would not be allowed to take power because of his gender and relatively young age.
Thao said the problem is that a Kim Yo Jong-led North Korea is unlikely to be sustainable. He warns that being a woman may lead to chaos with her as a collective lead. To avoid this, some in the leadership will try to bring back Kim Pyong Il, who is now under house arrest and also the focal point of power.
At the same time, others don't think Kim Pyong Il has a chance. Member of Parliament's Intelligence Committee, South Korean ruling party MP Kim Byong-ki, dismissed the possibility on social media on Sunday.
He said that North Korea has often deported those who are not in their favor, attempts to erase their influence, but also given a financial lifeline, so that they depend on the rulers of Pyongyang.
If Kim Pyong Il took power, his influence could endanger the current top leadership that has been suppressed for decades. When Kim Jong Un assumed power after his father's death in 2011, he soon eliminated potential rivals. He killed his uncle and one-time deputy, Jang Song Thak.
It is suspected that he ordered the killing of his exiled elder step-brother Kim Jong Nam in Malaysia.
