Recent Chinese documentary shows rare footage of Kim Il Sung tumor on his neck
Recent Chinese official Documentary “Jiang Zeming” reveals rare footage of Kim Il-sung‘s visit to China.
The trip occurred amid profound geopolitical shifts for North Korea, including the Soviet Union's decision to establish formal diplomatic relations with South Korea.
North Korean leader Kim Il Sung developed a large, baseball-sized tumor on the right side of the back of his neck by the 1970s. State media enforced a strict ban, forbidding photographers from capturing his right profile to protect his flawless public image.
