Kim Jong-un “Working all night is my nature”… Rodong Sinmun claims

North Korea began to highlight the image of a ‘committed leader’ by emphasizing that Chairman Kim Jong-un sees 5:00 am as the ‘end’ of the day and works through the night.

North Korea’s Rodong Sinmun argued in an article today (25th) that Chairman Kim said, “It has become a habit to work all night since childhood, and it has become a rule of life.”

Then, the newspaper idolized Chairman Kim, saying, “I postpone sleep and rest for the people and dedicate myself completely.”

On the other hand, the National Intelligence Service said in a 2016 report to the Intelligence Committee of the National Assembly that “Kim Jong-un worries a lot because of personal threats and cannot sleep well because of insomnia.”
