North Korean media has reported that long-time leader Kim Jong-Il has died, the Reuters news agency said.
MOVE OVER KIM JONG IL
IT'S TIME FOR KIM JONG-UN
North Korean media has reported that long-time leader Kim Jong-Il died.
State television reported on Monday that he died on Saturday and the announcer said the cause was "physical and mental over-work".
The official news agency KCNA said Kim died on board a train during one of his field trips outside the capital.
Meanwhile, the Yonhap news agency said the South Korean military has been placed on emergency alert, as shares on the stock market in Seoul fell nearly five per cent.
South Korea's presidential Blue House has also called an emergency National Security Council meeting.
Reclusive 'dear leader'
Kim is believed to have suffered a stroke in 2008 but appeared relatively vigorous in photos and video from recent trips to China and Russia and in numerous trips around the country carefully documented by state media.
The leader, reputed to have had a taste for cigars, cognac and gourmet cuisine, was believed to have had diabetes and heart disease.
The news comes as North Korea prepares for a hereditary succession. In September 2010, Kim Jong Il unveiled his third son, the twenty-something Kim Jong-Un, as his successor, putting him in high-ranking posts.
"Just a couple of days ago, it was publicised that he was visiting a military installation," Don Kirk of the Christian Science Monitor told Al Jazeera.
"Obviously there will be a long period of pubilc mourning in the country, but the sense is that at least he organised his succession with [his son] Kim Jong-Un taking over."
"The country looks stable, but whether it will remain stable is not clear," he said.
Kim, 69, took power in 1994 upon the death of his father, Kim Il-Sung, the first leader of the country.
Pyongyang is due to celebrate the milestone 100th birthday of Kim Il-Sung in April 2012.

this time i actually read the OP and i am reasonably sure this quote is not in it
ah well
it's kinda hard to top daffy duck in terms of craziness
I am not one to dance on graves
but I really don't think he's going to be missed anywhere outside North Korea
like, even from a purely political standpoint, I don't even think China would miss the dude
Are there any forumers in South Korea?
it's a transition and I'm WORRIED AS FUCK
Ever tried. Ever failed. No matter. Try again. Fail again. Fail better

This is the most amazing picture.
Good that this old fuck is dead, but I don't know how it's going to play.
if only
he was reviled by his own people
and he was an enormous thorn in in china's side, so...
yeah you're technically correct
Rest in Peace great leader.
this is a fair point
I mean, his dad CREATED the hype
this kid was RAISED in it
not a good sign
or not.
A prophet I am not.
lost salient is currently back home in the states, but she teaches there
i picked him as number 2 in CDL
this is going to pay out in spades
well yeah I'm saying like
his family is in North Korea, and I'm sure they'll miss him maybe
and of all the prospective political allies North Korea could have, not even THEY want anything to do with him
so you know, clarifications etc
It is less that people will miss him and more that he was more or less in control of the military.
We have no idea what his son will be like.
Sunny, cold but not too cold.
