North Korean officials are looking for new medicines to treat Kim Jong Un’s health problems related to obesity, including high blood pressure and diabetes, according to South Korea’s spy agency. Kim has regained weight and appears to be about 140 kilograms (308 pounds) again, putting him at high risk of heart disease. He has shown symptoms of these conditions since his early 30s and is believed to have developed them due to his drinking, smoking, and stress. The officials are trying to obtain new medications abroad for Kim’s suspected health issues.
