Posted by / April 9, 2013

CNN has compiled photos of Kim Jong Un and the North Korean military in this photo essay.

More photography.

Comments are off for this post.

  • Kimmy and his photoshopped army.

  • North Korea's military is huge.

  • +Amanda Taylor Well you know what they say, "Large army, small dictator." :>

  • +Guy Kawasaki I wonder if they get a medal for wearing a large hat and ill tailored pants.

  • 어휴, 저 어린 돼지새끼…

  • Wouldn't it be better if we just ignored them? If they want to fight a suicidal war there's nothing we can do to prevent it.

  • Yup, look at the antiquated equipment they are using…..lol

  • The guys down front have a lot of merit badges.

  • Nobody knows if we should laugh or cry about him… Keep it with a smile;)

  • hay

  • good fose

  • Only the 4 men in chairs and the first row of people standing are real. The background is an image glued to the wall.

  • You can fit their entire army in a single room?

  • +Adrian Clavijo, hate to say it but all of those men are real and they are a real threat to us.

  • The devil himself..

  • They're real, but the threat level is up for debate.

  • Could it be Kim Jung Un has homosexual tendencies (i.e.: Dennis Rodman visit)?

  • This photo is a fake. Real NK military have medals also on the pants 🙂

  • I see, western propaganda machine works on full power here..:/

  • He's wearing MC Hammers pants!

  • Ping Wang, evil is very relative. For example, americans don't consider themselves as evil, but in opinion of most people of the world, they are evil.

  • He is spending way too much time with his army men. He needs to spend some quality time with some women! This is his age to find some Love, not War!!

  • Love n korea.for sure it is capable of destroying US bases in asia

  •  I lake north korea…..! american go to hell

  • +Arthur D And that's very sad.

  • Is it a coincidence that they have a missile called No Dong?

  • Second row from the bottom on the right, schmuck is fixing his hat.

  • Ctrl+c Ctrl+v….

  • Did the dictator comb his hair?????

  • While I don't hate all of USA, I hope NK will bomb Wall St. with all bankers, Washington, California and whole damn state of Virginia.

  • Word War – Episode III : Attack of the Clones

  • Why so much hate here?? Do you even know what actually going on with north Korea or you just sit at your home listening to the media hating on north Korea

  • Jose, that's vely lacist.

  • Minh Nguyen yes they listen to what they are told, propaganda and "GOD BLESS AMERICA" patriotism is very strong in USA.

  • Most hate America +Arthur D ? Do you actually talk with people or is this from the forums or groups you hang out in? Because having traveled all over the world and from actually speaking with people, I'm throwing out the BS flag.

  • They won't say you that to eyes, but at least 1.5 billion people in the world hates USA and/or US government, military and corporations for acting like conquistadors around the world. Acting like "I'm doin' what I want and you're nothing to judge me".

  • +Stephanie Dana I suppose you could be right I'm saying that the photo could be real. In my opinion the lighting and how the shadows bounces off the bg is a bit off. There is no dispute that the men are real. Yes I belive the two in one photograph is real, I just don't believe they are all in the same location.

    Finally no I don't think North Korea is a threat. The only real threat NK has presented thus far is its influence in south Korea economy. And just for that, is enough reason for South Korea to go in guns blazing.

    North Korea is as harmless as a house cat. Don't threat, don't fear because nothing will happen to you or to the United States.

    I really don't know what north Korea hopes to gain from the negotiations once they are ready to talk and I don't know what agreements will the United States agree on to ease sanctions on North Korea?

    I do know that this will end with negotiations. I don't see war with north Korea in the near future.

  • Convenient having them all in one spot, hope they have another party.  The guy is 911 on a MASSIVE scale — hopefully, one of his generals  takes him out & creates a future for the country before good ammo is wasted.

  • What is 911 in this context, MAX B?

  • +Jeremiah Townsend people outside of America, do hate the United States.

    They may not hate the people living in the United States but they sure as hell hate our country.

    Mostly because of propaganda from their government or a real lack of knowledge and understanding.

  • I'm sure they hate formation photos too.

  • Strong nation, strong army.

  • If the leader is seated at the front then his standing army is short . Photoshopped once again ?

  • HAHAHAHA All people are the same.

  • Time will tell ever story that's every been told.

  • +Adrian Clavijo, North Korea has missiles pointed at us, South Korea, and our bases in Germany and Japan. Those missiles are nuclear

  • No, they have missiles, and they have a nuclear bomb. They dont yet have a missile with a nuke in it.

    secondly the United States have missile defense system all over the world. Don't worry our allies are safe.

  • They won't last very long when the very countries that would side with them like Cuba and Russia don't seem to condone this behavior, this is why the young are not ready to rule…. We lack the restraint more than the experience……

  • I dont think It's him, I think he's just being used as the poster boy

  • small dictator ! its fukkin funny cuz he's korean

  • Hey i saw that movie…"The Mouse That Roared" 1959 with Peter Sellers.

  • The greatness of North Korea

  • Send in the drones.

  • +Stephanie Dana They're as much threat to us as WMDs in Iraq were circa 2002.

  • I wonder?the bible said a young man from the east that is like by many and that the next anti christ would come<< , Hmmm, Eagle shall fall to the bear and the yellow race will over come.do you think this picture says that??? Hmmm.

  • Let' s destroy all communists of the world!!!

  • … so veh-wee ronery…

  • North Korea

  • Copier Coller Lool xD !!!

  • One of these guys should shoot this punk in the head, it would help the whole world if he did , and N.K.

  • Copy and paste!!!

  • Looks like a heard of Zombies.

  • Launch quickly, we could kill the snake & and pull any other fangs in one blast.

  • photoshop

  • +Stephanie Dana first of all, do u actually know that north Korea have missiles pointed at us?? … 2nd, the US has enough nuclear weapons to destroy the entire world, is that not a threat? … Think outside the box please

  • Mr. Nguyen
    I believe they have one, and as someone said do they have the testicular fortitude to launch one I guess we will see in the coming days, hope not

  • The World doesn't need this archaic type thinking anymore, Why start world war three, to what purpose does Korea think they are going to take over the world! They do this and they will be wiped from the face of the earth!

  • +Guy Kawasaki I find the entire North Korean situation to be both fascinating and terrifying. Have you heard this excellent Planet Money podcast that outlines the almost stupefying backbone of their economy? http://www.npr.org/blogs/money/2011/07/20/138166864/the-friday-podcast-north-koreas-illegal-economy

  • The Rise of the Daleks…..

  • oopsss…si vis pacem para bellum? The exhibition, pscycologically, is a sign of anxiety. Is it the end of history for the communisme?

  • @JP Loinsigh he is no longer alive haha

  • +Stephanie Dana  Not too worried about the US defending itself many times over, my worry is more for the neighbors of N. Korea —
    Couple stats — 
    >>The United States has 18 Ohio Class subs, 14 of which carry 24 ballistic missiles (Trident II) , each of which has 8 independent separate guided nuclear missiles, for a total of 192 highly accurate nuclear hits per single submarine.  Between the 14 subs, this reflects 2,688 separate guided nuclear missiles.  The other four Ohio subs carry 154 nuclear tipped Tomahawk cruise missiles each for an additional total of 616 nuclear hits. The subs are constantly mobile and can unload from beneath the water.    
    Hopefully — they're not pushed into attack more

  • Idiots

  • The US is taunting then for war, it's all part of the NWO.  They need this war.

  • +Dale Ludwig who needs this war? North Korea?

  • I don't feel anyone needs war. Saying that I certainly don't feel like we
    need to give up any assets or be told by any dictator, or any other country
    or terrorist group how our lives are going to be lived. I do firmly believe
    however,that N
    orth Korea has no business with the type of artillery they are capable no
    matter how far they can deliver it. The nut job at the helm is crazier than
    his father.

  • Small ……… , big ego to try to make up for it.. #lame #warispointless

  • ABD ye tek kafa tutan adam helal olsun sana

  • It takes two to tango . News sources are biased to the particular big dog that rules the area ! I hear this quote in movie " If you don't start nothin there won't be nuthin " .
    My personal opinion is that the leaders of the opposing sides should be the ones to fight to death over the perceived reason to fight .

  • +Adrian Clavijo I had a hunch you were right all along but couldn't put my finger on why. Just did.

    People in first two rows seem to be under bright white spotlight. People standing behind don't. Seems like natural light or or incandescent; maybe a weaker fluorescent.

    The white light doesn't seem to reach them; even their lower extremities. Light doesn't just fall on the subject. It moves past it in a straight line.
