If you were in North Korea, your whole family would be persecuted for guilt-by-association. If you don’t believe me, you can go to North Korea and try.

Either his mother was Kim Jong-il‘s housekeeper or his father was a bodyguard for Fatty III’s mother.

zhforestcrazy [网易广东省珠海市网友]:

Might as well call this barbeque stand “Fatty III’s Barbeque”!

Fatty III, give me three big kidneys, extra spicy.

So similar, yet different fates.

ucome888 [网易山东省威海市网友]:

Didn’t [Kim] Jong-il go to Shenyang before?

ucome888 [网易山东省威海市网友]:

A pity that he’s [making a living] barbequing, Fatty III is recruiting body-doubles.

空亦空 [网易广西桂林市网友]:

We can consider using him to replace the real one, and control North Korea.

There he is an emperor, here he sells barbequed meats.
