What Happens to North Korea if Kim Jong-Un Dies? Nuclear Weapons, Disappearances & the Kim Family

- Recently, North Korea's Supreme Leader Kim Jong-un made headlines for something unexpected, he went missing.
For weeks, no one saw him in public & the North Korean media & government said nothing about where he was.
It became massive international news & rumours started swirling. Is Kim Jong-un dead? Is he in a coma? Did he have an operation that went badly? Has Kim Jong-un caught coronavirus?
But, they weren’t the only questions being asked.
If Kim’s no longer the Supreme Leader what happens next & would it be the end of North Korea as we know it?
I decided to get in touch with some experts to find out more about North Korea itself & what the future holds.

the only reason why his sister is on his side most of time over the year's, because she doesn't wanna get killed
His sister always has that look on her face like she's up to something.
His sister is playing nice then she’ll have him eliminated
feel bad for that horse 1:20
1:13 Kim accidentally drops his book on the nuclear button...
Imagine if his sister took over the country, and literally open up North Korea to the world. Changing North Korea transform it into a new place like any other country in the world. That would be epic
What happens if Kim Jung-un dies?
North Koreans: that's our new independence day
This make no sense. People say that he’s dying but then his sister is missing and now he’s all awake and people think that he killed her because of being worried she was taking his place.
Can't imagine a woman dictator in North Korea as defectors have claimed there is much injustice for women and inequality. Yet this is a bloodline that is worshipped even if superficial. And I've heard reports she's just as ruthless and a ruthless woman scares me more. I could see it go both ways actually but it would be strange to see the ppl weep at her mere presence. This country is so strange and unpredictable in many ways. Never know what might come but a refugee crisis is imminent imo. Maybe not in my lifetime but eventually
What are you trying to say?
Sorry to
This is the first time i heard his voice
If my Grandson dies, my Grandsister will take over!
yes dad she will and im alive I MISS YOU
*escapes north korea*
Correction in the title: It is not *if* Kim Jong-un dies; it is *when.*
5:10 this clip actually seems... quite nice XD
My heart goes out to the people that have to live here.
Kim be like: it's a prank, why so flustered?🤣🤣🤣🤣
THE SISTER LOOKS 100 TIMES MORE EVEL AND CRUEL.
“That sounds strange...that’s because it is”
what would happen if multiple nations decided to cooperate in secret and assasinate as many powerful people in north korea as they can, then full on invade the area in secret surrounding the country while trying to take the main leaders/ the brains in the military orginization as hostage? what would happen to the country then?
These videos are so well paced and information packed but easy to understand! Well done on another quality video BTN and Nick Maher 👏👏👏
dude, it comes down to two words: Civil Rights.
What about covid 19
United Nations
yes
I’m very thankful this is not me but I am sad for the people who live their, and I hope they find a good leader one day.
He is a horrible man!!!!! 😳😳😳
He gets replaced by a doppelganger and his sister takes all the decisions.
amazing.I LOVE YOUR VIDS and u make me smarter in nearly EVERY THING
Yes!!!
What is 98-43
he asks why we care about what happens when kim dies and answers NUCLEAR WEAPONS and i am like bruh there are people living in that country we care about them at least
My theory is he died, they cloned him, and bam, he’s inmortal
They look WAY too similar.
If Kim wasn't evil or actually taken care of North Korea, Kim looks like he'd be adorned
Kim Jong Un: The entire United States is within range of our nuclear weapons
Missile defence system: am i a joke to you?
I love how true and interesting this channel and their vids are
He has gone missing again! 12 days again, no sight of him.
I’m interested in what happened to him
He might have been shielding and who knows he might have underlying health problems he will keep a secret but unfortunately he’s still alive
I believe his sister maybe more ruthless and more energetic with it. Definitely more clever and resourceful.
Most depressing country. If only I could've helped😔
That country is sick.
This is coronavirus with an upgrade
This video totally changed my line of thinking. I just thought it would be a smooth transition to a top military general and that would be that.
Kim's sister is probably one of the closest people to Kim
I am not saying that he won't kill her if she did anything wrong
He practically grew up with her in Switzerland
We shouldnt just care about their nuke capabilites but also for the well being of its overwhelmingly oppressed people.
I’m your biggest fan BTN!👍🏻😘🥰❤️👍🏻🤩
1:18 Me leaving when my brother gets in trouble and he mentions me.
Why there family have to be so ruthless?! legit I feel so pity for those who was born in North Korea and live in North Korea- imagine knowing your country is hell, a president which is a demon and bro- I saw so many videos of ppl from North Korea ''escaped'', legit they could die in the open-
Your videos are always so interesting! Thank you for making this one! 💖
Whenever a Pope dies - successor.
Whenever a Monarch dies - successor.
Whenever an Emporer dies - succesor.
Whenever a Supreme Leader dies - Kim Jong-un gives me a sidelong squint.
I love these videos!
I love your vids Btn. I watch them every day.
This whole country is a shame to humanity.
So sad for North Korea peoples
I didn’t see kim since Covid 19 is show up to earth 🌍 did the Corona know about this?
Imagine Kim Jong un watching and understands what your saying
Seriously doubt that his sister would be a whole lot different than him.
The poor NORTH KOREAN people need a human being who is anything but a UN puppet.
Say a prayer for these fellow human beings.
The only thing supreme about little rocket man is his arrogants.
Kim Jong Un's sister looks like she has a very cold, wicked look about her,
and she could be worse than him. We don't know if Kim is dead, was knocked
out of power by China or the military, or if he had a serious heart operation.
We in the free world, can only hope that somehow a good and strong leader
will come to power there, and improve living conditions for all North Koreans,
or have the 2 countries unite.
We'll all have to wait and see what happens with Kim Jong Un, and if he is
alive or dead, or maybe incapacitated ?? I suspect he's underwent a serious
surgery and is very ill, and not equipped to lead the country. It's very hard to say ?
When Kim missed his Grandfather's Birthday, we knew something is wrong with him, he would never miss that day.
omg since did when btn have a comment section
It's because this is not really for kids. If it is the comments section is removed
I know!
@@bringyourownbin6570 yeah you're right
Chill cube it is cause this video isn't under youtube's 'made for kids'
They had a comment section when they did the dangerous animals video too
This could be a good thing, all around.
China and USA should do something about North Korea. Its a madness.
more like china and north korea
Nothing really anyone can do
The funniest thing is that there are stories that covers the future aspect of North Korea when little information is presented in the first place.
Due to the lack of reliable resources, take these stories as a pinch of salt. It's filled with assumptions and predictions which makes it absolutely laughable and entertaining.
The City Is Gonna Be more better
Future wii be discussed after the declaration of Kim's death officially.
It's one of his top military Commanders
I think he might have been shielding
5:56 they way the walk
I feel like Kim knows how to fight 💀
2:20 see the difference
No?
I dont get it?
My gosh it’s like human evolution
No XDDD
Nope
when did BTN get so good
Unfortunately, nothing
Moon Jae-In that’s kinda true
He might be a bad leader but.... HAVE U SEEN HIS SEAT? LIKE WHAT HOW DOES HE SIT THE GALLOP LIKE THAT?!
He can't still beat Pac's fake death xD
There is some kind of planning going on.... Pls if u can reach out keep an eye on the north koreans.. India
Kim Jong Un looks like if a BTS member toured america and got addicted to McDonald's and made his role model Emperor Palatine.
"If" he dies? Looks like someone needs to have a talking to about life and death.
I love btn!
0:51 wheels on a shooping cart be like
Why so many missles
En Jesucristo está la Salvación.
What happens if Kim Jong Un dies?
USA: yay.....
I am big fann BTN😊
#THEANMK
I hope North Korea will be safe, friendly, and less overpowered one day. It’s not nice knowing how it’s suffering
Nice vid
i feel like if the sister maybe gets power she'll make North Korea a better place, because she kind of look likes she's up to something.
why is there so many comments with likes but no comments
Ikr wtf. North Korea probably took over or smth
Wow 2020 is really a bad year
Good !!
It would seem that if the leader needs to be a family member it would be Kim's sister; maybe until one of his children becomes old enough to take control.
what would happen if someone pressed that nuclear button?
Well now their family is paying for their atrocities and it will only get worse for their dynasty.
Well, he lived
Well its becoming true
He will go as all will ,all pass on now what no one knows
Are north Korea crazy carrying weapons like that
It's too early to predict.
Testing testing. Can u hear testing
💛💛
My discussion: I think there will be three major section ist= his sister she will try to take control
Second=officials as they have served the country they might be thinking that they have the right and it's the right time
Third=the section from people's side there is going to be a leader by the peoples side who will promise them freedom and dreams
(The third fraction have the biggest chances of being working with another country as they can be spys)
China 🇨🇳 controls North Korea watching Kim Jung dealing with USA China was upset
Why does everyone thinks the images of Kin are recent?
Trump pulling his clutch power move handshake at the end
good
🤔good horse rider to they say the leader is but it looks like he might have ate it as well.
I hope there wasnt a Coup
