'Defiant message' as North Korea's Kim Jong Un rides white horse on sacred mountain

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.

Heres something even cooler, me in my Jeep climbing the Uwharrie National forest with some bad azz heavy metal rockin

Poor horse!

He’s little more than the mind of a spoilt child in the body of a chubby man

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

Strong horse!!! not easy to carry 200 kilogram and still run

meanwhile, outside Korea... well, it's complicated.

Beside impeachment trial Trump needs to ride a white horse now? dammit

HuffPost cnnbrk reuters maddow Sorry, but this is laughable & pathetic!

He has more likely eaten that horse already.

Big horse for a big guy!

Trying to be as macho as putin

Congratulations to Pyongyang Chewing Gum & Glue factory on reverse engineering a whole horse from their surplus glue.

I thought nothing was sacred in North Korea.

Putin would be shirtless...

Cool

That’s an incredibly strong horse

Photoshop 😆

Still looks like a blobfish with the worst haircut.

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 😂

Where's Tonto?

Popularly known as the end of the horse.

Emotional rescue?

Was't there someone to take this beast out CNN

King of the north😂

They hatin cos he took his horse to the old town road

realDonaldTrump right now: “damn, i wish I knew how to ride a horse....”

Thanks joshjonsmith. Paektu Mountain 백두산 is also notable for being the highest peak of the Korean Peninsula.

How is it horse did not collapse?

Hope he falls

I feel a Disney North Korea announcement may be coming, or an NBA store.

For all of the amount of time it took to take the photo?

He a mad man but funny with it . Just need to make sure he is kept in a good mood 😂

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!

Lol

The horse is like jesus christ. Why not just strap a cruise ship to my back. It would weigh less than this a hole

Maybe Trump could join the horse ride in their next summit.

What a man

He looks terrified to on that horse..😳

kim going to rescue his heroine 😂
