Shock from Third Son's Motorbike Accident Led to Kim Jong-il's Collapse

Japanese Monthly 'Will' reported in its latest issue that N. Korean leader Kim Jong-il collapsed from the shock that his third son Kim Jong-woon was injured in a motor cycle accident in early morning of Aug. 16, with no hope of recovery.

According to the monthly, Swiss and French doctors were urgently called into Pyongyang to treat Jong-woon, but they also ended up attending to Kim Jong-il when he collpased after seeing the grisly shape his son was in.

Jong-woon suffered stroke and have been kept alive with a respirator. Doctors declared that he has 'no chance of recovery'(coma.) The shocking news pushed Kim Jong-il into serious depression, according to the report.

Kim Jong-il was reportedly on his way to recovery for a while, but since Sept. 13, he suffered heart attack again and his recovery may not be possible.

This report was filed by a freelance writer 'Phillip Ho,’ who is half-European and half-N. Korean, 'Will' said that Phillip Ho had frequent contacts with European doctors who treated Kim Jong-il in person and was able to get this information.

Will is the 2nd highest-selling monthly magazine in Japan.

Interesting.  I imagine that he is probably already dead.  It will be even more interesting to see what happens with NK in the near future.
