Why can't he die of illness himself...

never knew he had a wife

does the couple have children that will eventually succeed to north korean leadership???

I hope so.

Yes he has one for sure. This son by the way tried to illeagly visit japan a few years ago. He is overweight as well. In anycase I hope that north korea does not survive long enough to have any living there let alone ruling.

poor kim. i know it must hurt him lots to lose someone that's loyal and his only friend and true companion : (

^ not really. he has like 12 rooms full of girls

yeah nbut i betcha none of them girls were as trusting and loyal as his wife!! right? ammi right. i are right.. poor kimmy poo

I hope he's as crazy as his dad.

Kim Jong Il's wife that died was pretty. Itz sad that she was forced to marry such an ugly guy.
Heres her pic

You get good pickins when you're the dictator.

lets not wish ill on the man.

i dont feel sorry for him. he kidnapped a south korean actress! he's evil, like an asian hitler or something.

You insult Hitler. Krazy Kim is only as talented as Hitler's toe nail clippings.

lol, I remember when Kim Jong Il's son got busted in Japan. He was visiting Tokyo Disneyland of all places on a fraudulent passport.

Yes this is true. Kim is simply one north korea. I would prefer to wish ill upon the entire north korean people.

It is unfortunate he was only slapped on the wrist for his crime.
