Hermit Kim visits China

NORTH Korea leader Kim Jong-un has visited China, Bloomberg reports citing three unnamed sources, in what would be his first known overseas trip since taking power in 2011 and ahead of a potential summit with US President Donald Trump.

Details of his visit, including its purpose and itinerary, were not yet known.

Footage from Nippon News Network showed a green train carriage with yellow horizontal lines, part of a 21-car train, similar to the kind that Kim’s late father, Kim Jong Il, rode when he visited Beijing in 2011.
