North Korean Vice Premier Executed for Showing Bad Posture
There is probably more to this story in regards to why Kim Jong-un would order his execution that has more to do with his bad posture at meetings:
North Korea has carried out the execution of a vice premier and punished two senior officials, a Seoul official said Wednesday, as the North’s leader is seeking to further strengthen his reign of terror.
The official said North Korea executed the 63-year-old Kim Yong-jin by firing squad last month after being branded as an “anti-party and anti-revolutionary element.”
He was investigated by the North’s intelligence agency due to his sitting posture shown at a key parliamentary meeting held in late June.

Timing is everything… He might have displayed less than enthusiastic joy at one of the chubby guy’s proposals (how long are those speeches, anyway?)… Or he may have lost it because of the Olympic medal count relative to the South…
Should have practiced at home by balancing a book on his head!
I mean, look at Fatty Kim’s hairstyle. Seems designed for walking with a whole stack of books up on that fat melon of his.
