North Korean leader Kim Jong Un made his first public appearance in about a month, with state media showing him at a ruling party meeting that discussed ways to improve the country’s deteriorating economy.
Kim, wearing his signature black Mao suit, said it was time to take "additional state measures for solving pending problems urgent for the economic work and people’s living,” the official Korean Central News Agency reported Saturday. A plenary meeting of the Central Committee of the party will be held in early June, KCNA said.
Kim also reviewed the "execution of major policy tasks in different fields” in the meeting, state media said.
