He had a stroke a few years ago, and he's been accelerating his son succession within the past year, but he was still making his rounds to China and Russia. Crazy.

Here's some info:

"North Korean leader Kim Jong-il, who ruled the communist nation with an iron fist while pursuing nuclear weapons programs, has died, state media said Monday. He was 69."

"Kim, who took over North Korea after his father and national founder Kim Il-sung died in 1994, "passed away from a great mental and physical strain" during a train ride at 8:30 a.m. on Saturday, the Korean Central News Agency said in an urgent dispatch."

"A female newscaster, clad in a black funeral dress, also announced Kim's death on state TV. The late Kim had been in ill heath after suffering an apparent stroke in 2008."

Interested in seeing what happens with Jong-un. Also the response from South Korea and the U.S.

"North Korea and the United States are highly likely to delay bilateral nuclear talks set for this week in Beijing, following the report of North Korean leader Kim Jong-il's death, a senior Seoul official said Monday."

"South Korea's foreign ministry has immediately put all of its overseas missions on an "emergency response" status since Kim's death, officials said."

"First Vice Foreign Minister Park Suk-hwan was holding an emergency meeting to discuss Seoul's diplomatic responses following Kim's death, they said."
