Beijing-backed HK satellite TV general channel”s vice director, also niece of a Chinese foreign minister, claimed [Kim Jong-un] passed away and bragged about her very solid source. She has over 15 million followers on Weibo.” this gets more interesting. Beijing-backed HK satellite TV general channel’s vice director, also niece of a Chinese foreign minister, claimed KJU passed away and bragged about her very solid source.

We broke down the message into three parts and tried to translate each one using Yandex, but it is still a bit difficult to decipher. Here is the first part: Second: And third: Here is Google”s translation of the third part (which appears to be the most important): Taepodong continued their thread: (Though i suspect most of her followers are zombie accounts). Princelings can be very arrogant, but also can be well informed. So her claim shall not be very easily dismissed. At the beginning she only posted two candles, and made the assertive claim after being questioned. pic.twitter.com/8gyCsSQvEq – Taepodong (@stoa1984) April 24, 2020 These info are posted FYI. I have no idea what is going on but I think the words of a Chinese princeling and a head of a Beijing-backed HK media may carry some credibility concerning this current KJU situation. – Taepodong (@stoa1984) April 24, 2020 So who is she? the niece of former Foreign Minister Li Zhaoxing. It seems she has made a name for herself both on English and Chinese language web. https://t.co/trEgJtEolk – Taepodong (@stoa1984) April 24, 2020 And she was born into a family of Chinese diplomats. So that”s all I know now. Has she been discredited before? I have no idea and am happy to know more about her. – Taepodong (@stoa1984) April 24, 2020 and this is a funny article prasing her(embarrasing to read actually): “A Hard-line Approach to Political Journalism” https://t.co/ynwmS2QbVJ – Taepodong (@stoa1984) April 24, 2020 One person asked if the information provided was valid. The OP responded by saying, “It”s for you to decide.” It’s for you to decide. – Taepodong (@stoa1984) April 24, 2020 BREAKING: Kim Jong Un has died, according to sources in US intel. – Rogue WH Snr Advisor (@RogueSNRadvisor) April 25, 2020 This picture is doing the rounds as well! #KIMJONGUNDEAD pic.twitter.com/zpmoddX9Na – Aditi Chaudhary (@Aditi_C16) April 25, 2020 Main Image Credit: The Dallas Morning News 796 views
