Accompanied by senior North Korean figures, Kim took two well-publicized rides on the snowy slopes of the sacred Paektu Mountain in October and December. North Korea has a long history of buying pricey horses from Russia and customs data first reported by Seoul-based NK News suggests that North Korea may have bolstered its herd in October.
It was the biggest buy since 2015, when North Korea spent $192,204 on 61 horses from Russia. Altogether, North Korea has imported at least 138 horses between 2010 and 2019, at a cost of $584,302, according to the Russian data.
£4,800 for a thorough bred stallion is cheap!
Lol wtf are you doing ?
असली मस्ती तो यही कर रहा है
KJU looks to be a formidable horseman though! surprise
Those poor horses! They will likely be ridden hard and then eaten if they can't perform. North Korea is another disgusting and heartless country!
When she tells you her parent's aren't at home
Beautiful horse
Damn, they don’t have horses there?
too
Horse and Jockey both are impressive! *note
Meanwhile...
poor horse!
Im sure the starving people of N Korea would appreciate the import of food and medicine.
ECCO LE CINGLE SUR TWITTER . MAIS C EST CA LA DEMOCRATIE . CERTO CERTO . MADONNA .
Kim got the Arabian
Thats a very old image from before 2016 ...?
it's the Cadillackov Horses!
He needs Jesus in his life.
This picture is at least one year old in my memory.
There is no such thing as a purebred.
Gah, Trump is probably going to want a horse now.
Kim riding his favorite horse, who he named Rocket.
well, at least he isn't shirtless
Prolly worthwhile looking to how North Korea got the foreign currency to pay for such extravagances. I mean, there's not much made (or grown) in DKRP that has any value for export. 🤔
I bet the end of this ride didn’t work out to well. Butterball Kim is about to take a header. Next time get an American Quarterhorse.
priorities
This dude is still on high horse? 🙄👎🏼
He should take his shirt off like Putin
Looks real comfortable 'holding on the saddle horn', like a child. He is looking like he is scared.😂😂😂
Prioridades...
Knight on a White Horse
Kim's riding buddies.

How tall is he and how much do you think he weighs? Anyone?
While his people starve
Poor horses...
