Rare photos from Kim Jong-un’s childhood emerge
Unrecognisable photos of North Korea’s leader Kim Jong-Un have been released, a contrast to the dictator seen today
The country’s state media revealed images of the dictator as a teenager during a documentary on Kim’s mentor.
Pictured here is the North Korean leader in his early teens holding hands with Army Marshal and mentor Hyon Chol-hae.
And another in his older years.
The documentary called “Closest to the Sun” describes the close relationship between the two and Kim’s involvement in Hyon’s heart treatment between 2017 and 2021.
According to the film Hyong suffered from chronic heart disease and heart failure with Kim giving detailed medical instructions to the doctors treating him.
Kim’s adviser died last month after being in hospital for a long time.
Adidas is contemplating a significant financial blow as it considers writing off $320 million worth of Yeezy shoes following its separation from music and fashion icon Kanye West.
The sportswear giant’s decision to sever ties with West’s Yeezy brand has left a mountain of unsold merchandise, threatening to dent the company’s balance sheet.
The partnership between Adidas and Kanye West, which began in 2013, had been immensely successful, with Yeezy shoes becoming a highly sought-after fashion statement.
However, recent controversies and disagreements between West and Adidas prompted the sportswear company to distance itself from the celebrity designer.
The massive inventory of Yeezy shoes now presents a dilemma for Adidas, as it grapples with finding a solution to deal with the surplus stock. A $320 million write-off could significantly impact the company’s financial performance in the short term.
Adidas is currently exploring various options, including discounting, donating, or repurposing the unsold inventory to mitigate the financial hit.
