It was Kim's first public appearance after weeks of absence. NK News, a South Korean-based outlet, reported that Kim skipped a Politburo meeting on Sunday – the third time he ever did so. 

Kim’s previous prolonged disappearances have provoked speculation about his health. Per NK News, his longest-ever break from public appearances was in 2014, when he was not seen for 40 days.
