SEOUL - Aides to Kim Jong Un are convinced the North Korean leader plans “a great operation”, state media said on Wednesday in a report that included lavish descriptions and images of the leader riding a white horse up North Korea’s most sacred mountain.
“His march on horseback in Mt Paektu is a great event of weighty importance in the history of the Korean revolution,” KCNA said. Analysts say the symbolism underscores North Korea standing up to international sanctions and pressure over its nuclear weapons and ballistic missile programmes. Last year, Kim took South Korean President Moon Jae-in to the top of the mountain as part of a historic summit.
Come on Reuter’s... you know this is BS - 'This is a statement, symbolic of defiance,' said Joshua Pollack, a guy in California. - How can these be “news”, it’s just the Christmas family photo shoot from the Kim’s.
Where did they get the horse from?
This makes me think about those cold Korean winters in the field when I served there in 1988.
That poor horse.
Thank God he doesn't have Vlad's predilection for toplessness.

Great, now Trump will have to attempt to ride a very beautiful, perfect Clydesdale to show up his buddy Kim.

Friend of Putin?
暴れん坊将軍!
Poor horse😒
My initial reaction to this obvious attempt at old-style propaganda & glorification of the kims is, this generation of the kim dynasty, the current leader, looks as if he's never, ever missed a meal, (while others in NK routinely starve) I feel very sorry for that poor horse..!
Next summit...
PR from the Putin playbook 😂

Korean horses are very strong, evidently.
A meme is about to be born.
Hmmm maybe on his next trip to Korea, our Despot-in-Chieg and his buddy, Kim Jong Un can take a horseback ride together...off into the sunset, perhpas? Now wouldn't that be quite the photo!
The poor horse!
