BEIJING/SEOUL (Reuters) - China has dispatched a team to North Korea including medical experts to advise on North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, according to three people familiar with the situation.
The trip by the Chinese doctors and officials comes amid conflicting reports about the health of the North Korean leader. Reuters was unable to immediately determine what the trip by the Chinese team signaled in terms of Kim’s health.
A delegation led by a senior member of the Chinese Communist Party’s International Liaison Department left Beijing for North Korea on Thursday, two of the people said. The department is the main Chinese body dealing with neighbouring North Korea.
The sources declined to be identified given the sensitivity of the matter.
The Liaison Department could not be reached by Reuters for comment late on Friday. China’s foreign ministry did not immediately respond to a request for comment late on Friday.
Daily NK, a Seoul-based website, reported earlier this week that Kim was recovering after undergoing a cardiovascular procedure on April 12. It cited one unnamed source in North Korea.

Re: Kim Jong Un in ill health?
I've seen reports saying he's dead, reports saying he's in perfect health, and reports claiming everything in between. I'm sure one of them's right.

Ha! Phat jokes!
I read that he’s a potential covid/corona virus patient. Being overweight puts him in the high risk category too. So only time will tell. I mean it’s not like he’s going to have any issues getting medical treatment/supplies.

I remember Rochey posting about the last one kicking the bucket.
What does defeat mean to you?
Nothing it will never come. Death before defeat. I don’t bend or break. I end, if I meet a foe capable of it. Victory is in forcing the opponent to back down. I do not. There is no defeat.

Well King of the Cupcakes didn't kick the bucket. He was seen recently. What happened and what was done is still secretive.
