Kim Jong Un a No-Show At Workers Party's 69th Anniversary Celebration

Kim Jong Un's disappearance from public view became officially worrisome to some observers Friday when he failed to attend the ruling Workers Party celebration of North Korea's 69th year as nation. Kim hadn't missed one of those since 2011 shortly before coming to power as Dear Leader of the most isolated nation on Earth.

One of Kim Jong-un's last appearance before disappearing from public view: A trip to the Chonji Lubricant Factory.

Will Kim Jong-Un Show Up at Friday Workers Party Meeting And is Sister Kim Yo Jong Actually In Charge?

Some light may be shed Friday on the whereabouts of now-reclusive North Korean leader Kim Jong Un. It's the workers celebration of North Korea's 69th year as nation. Leadership traditionally shows up at the official acknowledgment of the day. Sometimes, in off-years, the Dear Leader has been absent, so it would be even more glaring should a leader miss the 70th anniversary than this one.
