North Korean propaganda shows Kim Jong Un in ‘Putin-esque’ horse photoshoot

Recent political propaganda from North Korea shows leader Kim Jong Un riding a white horse on a sacred Korean mountain.

The horse and location are symbols associated with the Kim family’s seven decade dynastic rule over North Korea.

According to North Korean state media, the scenic photographs of Mount Paektu’s, the spiritual homeland of the Kim dynasty, have his supporters convinced the leader is planning a ‘great operation’.
