Every year in Pyongyang. Dictator Kim Jong-un throws a celebration in honor of himself.

... The greatest embodiment of love!

... The greatest embodiment of love!

... The sun of mankind!

... That's you, Comrade Kim!!!

... That's you, Comrade Kim!!!

... That's you, Comrade Kim!!!

While his people starve, Kim Jong-un has leisure parks built.

Excellent!

Great job!

The military parade made an impression on them.

The theme park here should be more beautiful than Disney World!

That's going to piss off the Yankees big time!

Beloved leader!

The Americans have responded to our show of military force!

The American Secretary of State is ready to meet you, beloved leader!

The Secretary of State?! How dare they!

I want to negotiate with the president personally!!

In October 2017, Kim Jong-un presents a special Christmas surprise on the sacred mountain Paektu ...

I, Kim Jong-un, Supreme Commander of the Invincible Korean Armed Forces ...

... will give U.S. imperialism a very special Christmas present ...

... a strategic weapon the likes of which the world has never seen before!

Hiyaa!!

The long-range missile was successfully launched, beloved leader!

... and now ...

... let it fall into the sea as close to the Japanese coast as possible.

Basketball fan Kim Jong-un also ties his own political survival to the atomic bomb.

Here! I stand free!

Dictators without this weapon, like Saddam Hussein and Muammar Gaddafi, had been liquidated by the United States.

Very nice, beloved leader!

Bravo, excellent!

Beloved leader, I am heartbroken to have to disturb you!

You’ll regret it … if ... it's ... not important ...

We have just received the response from the President of the United States.

Give it to me!

"Rocket man is on a suicide mission ...

... for himself AND for his regime!"

The long-awaited New Year’s speech of our beloved leader, sun of mankind: Kim Jong-un!

Comrades, the specialists of our victorious army have succeeded in ...

... producing nuclear missiles that can attack and destroy the American aggressor anywhere!

It's not an empty threat, it's a reality: ...

... the nuclear button is here on my desk!

B... Beloved leader, …

... the American President has just mentioned you in a Tweet ...

... so late? Show me!

Six months later, out of nowhere, a summit meeting between Donald Trump and Kim Jong-un is convened in Singapore.
Kim had written him "beautiful letters," Trump said, explaining the diplomatic coup.
In June 2019, Trump will become the first American president to briefly cross the inter-Korean border at Panmunjom.
After the pictures of the handshake of the two leaders went around the world ...
... Trump's interest in the North Korean dictator faded as quickly as it had appeared.
Trump's November 2020 election loss is answered by Kim Jong-Un with demonstrations of military strength.
He proudly presents his latest nuclear missiles at various military parades.
