Kim Jong Il looking at persimmons; Kim Jong Il looking at a leaflet. From http://kimjongillookingatthings.tumblr.com/.
The Dear Leader looked at things, as we know; looking at things was virtually his whole life as leader, his chief and almost only duty, the way he took care of his people. Indeed, you could say that his commitment to looking at things was what killed him in the end: according to state media he
died on a train due to a "great mental and physical strain" during a "high-intensity field inspection" Saturdaybetween looking-at-things stops, as it were. He had perhaps looked at last at all the things he could manage, and something snapped.
