The atmosphere at that time was also described in detail, but let’s take a closer look at the details.
This is a story published by Bob Woodward, a Watergate journalist, which has become a hot topic in recent years.
It happened at a dinner with the American visitor to North Korea and President Kim, who visited North Korea to coordinate the summit between the United States and North Korea.
When President Kim lit a cigarette, Andrew Kim, then head of the Central Intelligence Service Center, said that smoking was not good for health and the dining room froze.
It was said as a sign of friendship, but the First Vice Chairman of the Labor Party, Kim Yeo-jeong, and the Vice Chairman of the Labor Party, Kim Young-cheol, were almost paralyzed and could not speak.
This is because the advice or request to the deified leader of North Korea was prohibited.
At that moment, however, Ms. Ri Seol-ju broke the silence and the awkward atmosphere softened.
“That’s right, I’ve been telling my husband about the dangers of smoking,” she said.
Earlier, at the time of the Panmunjom Inter-Korean Summit in April 2018, Ms. Ri Seol-ju publicly referred to President Kim as ‘husband’ instead of his title, attracting a lot of attention.

Former head of the center Andrew Kim, who made the comments about the cigarette, Woodward said he thought this might be a reflection of discipline.
In the midst of this, Defense Minister candidate Seo-wook said yesterday that President Kim Jong-un is not serving a mandate in the form of distributing power to his aide.
However, he explained that some of the new forms of government action are being identified that allow some of the key positions to assume responsibilities and roles.
As President Kim’s health ideals were raised, interest also turned to the background of Ms. Lee and others’ recommendation to President Kim to quit smoking through this anecdote and Vice President Kim Yeo’s status. -jeong.
