Kuryong Falls at Mt. Kumgang
North Korean optimism (within its capital, that is) has seldom been so high.
With new love at the top (what else is there?), an Olympic high, news comes also of Uncle Jang going north to China.
According to Chinese state media, Beijing and Pyongyang have agreed to
"accelerate their joint development of two trade zones in North Korea."
"Kim Jong Un's powerful [sic] uncle Jang Song Thaek formalized the agreements Tuesday in meetings with China's Ministry of Commerce."
Jang is a vice chairman of the powerful National Defense Commission and is seen
as a leading economic policy official.
Uncle Jang's six-day visit could (even) be prelude to a visit by Kim.
Chalk it all up to the July surprise wedding honey?
Hope (and true love?), even in the darkest of nights, springs . . .
Kim Jong-un and Ri Sol-ju take a stroll
