 Kim Jong-un, the Supreme Leader of North Korea, is one of the most polarizing figures in the
entire world. Kim is a person that people love to hate (just watch “The Interview”). He assumed
leadership when his father, Kim Jong II, passed away after two decades as the Supreme
Leader. Widely criticized for his lavish spending at the expense of North Korean citizens, it’s no
surprise that Kim has a long list of enemies.
 Kim’s power allows him to technically do whatever he wants, but as so many have seen, his
decisions are not always ethical or right. The United Nations recently discovered that Kim’s
spending on luxury goods eclipses the entire GDP of the North Korean people.
 While many world leaders are accustomed to leading luxurious lives, they do so with sound
mind, as their country is financially stable. However, Kim takes unethical spending to a new
level as North Korea is filled with economic downfall and poverty. What exactly is Kim
spending money on that could be used to help the people of North Korea? We found eight of
Kim’s most ridiculous splurges, starting with a long list of imported drinks.
8 Of Kim Jong-un’s Most Ridiculous Splurges
 Who doesn’t enjoy some premium liquor every now and then? Well, this lavish expense is an
everyday occurrence for Kim Jong-un. Kim indulges in some of the finest drinks in the world.
What are his two favorite drinks? Whiskey and cognac, both of which he has imported from
around the world.
 When Kim isn’t feeling too luxurious, he likes to drink Johnnie Walker whiskey. As the country of
North Korea continues to struggle, the Supreme Leader ships thousands of bottles of liquor into
his own personal kingdom for his enjoyment alone. Kim’s enjoyment, however, doesn’t stop
there. He also likes a cigarette to go with his whiskey, and Yves Saint Laurent are his favorite,
which he also imports into the country.
1. Expensive Imported Liquor
 One story that the rest of the world finds hilarious about Kim Jong-un’s father, Kim Jong II, is the
tale of his (obviously fabricated) historic golf records. It was said that Kim’s father once shot a
round of just 34 strokes in the capital of North Korea (Pyongyang), which included an
impressive 11 holes in one. That’s right, Kim II said that he shot an ace on the golf course not
once, but 11 times. He made the claim in real golf, too, not putt putt where a few aces on the
course are a given.
 Despite the hilarious claims, Kim II’s love for the game has been passed onto Kim Jong-un,
who has access to the finest private golf courses that his people can make. Thankfully, the
claims of impossibly low scores haven’t been as pronounced for Kim as they were for his
father, at least not yet. We’re just waiting for the day that Kim claims that he beat his father’s
record by sinking 12 aces in one round of golf.
2. The Finest Private Golf Courses
 Kim spent a massive amount on building a private ski resort named Masikryong. The resort was
built on Taehwa Peak and was the brainchild of Kim, who wanted to increase tourism in his
country. The resort was meant to help North Korea’s tourism industry go from 200,000 visitors
per year to over 1 million, but that money probably could have been spent on something
better.
 When you consider that North Korea does not get much snow, the ski resort seems downright
ridiculous. The resort spans an incredible 70 miles, and Kim likes to spend a lot of his time
there, even when there is nothing but green grass on the slopes. Much of the massive resort is
empty throughout the year, especially when Kim is on one of his private vacations— during
which time visitors are not allowed.
3. Masikryong Ski Resort
 Kim Jong-un likes to take to the seas once in a while, so apparently it was absolutely
necessary for him to spend more than $7 million on a yacht. At almost 100 feet long, the Fendi-
designed yacht is considered to be the nicest that Princess has ever built. The yacht even
features a saloon for Kim to drink some of that expensive imported liquor.
 In true Kim fashion, he was able to get his hands on the yacht before it was released to the
public. Kim’s family owns almost all of the territory in the southwest part of North Korea, and
Kim uses the yacht to travel up and down the coast to observe those in his native land.
4. $7 Million Yacht
 It’s not just fine liquor that Kim likes to spoil himself with, as his gluttony crosses over into food
as well. Kim imports his food from many different parts of the world, none of which includes the
rice or noodles that the people of North Korea feel fortunate enough to eat on rare occasions.
Kim opts for pork straight from Denmark and caviar shipped in from Iran. If Kim wants to eat
something a bit more scaled down like mangoes, he gets them shipped in from Thailand.
 The amount of money Kim spends on imported food is very off putting, especially when you
consider how many people are starving in North Korea. It is estimated that since the 1990’s,
millions have died from hunger despite the United Nations sending many rations for the
people. Of course, Kim has consistently denied that a food shortage has been a problem in his
country, but everyone else has said otherwise.
5. Imported Food
 How many pianos do you think the average person owns? In pretty much every house in the
world, there is no more than one piano sitting in the living room. For Kim, it’s a completely
different story as he owns more than 20 pianos for his multiple homes. While Kim’s piano skill
level is unknown, we imagine that it’s safe to assume that he’s a far cry from Elton John or Billy
Joel.
 Kim likes to take his workers along with him when he goes shopping for a new piano. Why? Our
best guess is that he likes hearing them say that he’s the greatest player ever and that any
missed note is the fault of the piano. Maybe one day Kim will showcase his piano talents to the
world and we can see for ourselves who to blame: Kim or the piano.
6. 20 Pianos
 Kim has been a huge fan of cars ever since he was seven years old, which was when his father
allowed him to start driving. As the future dictator of the country, Kim was able to get his hands
on any car that he wanted simply by asking his father for it. Because of this early interest and
accessibility, Kim’s car collection has consistently grown over the years. Today, it’s estimated
that Kim has over 100 cars at his disposal.
 Kim’s favorite model of car is the Mercedes Benz line, which his father was also quite fond of.
Kim also has a collection of race cars, but we probably won’t be seeing him on the NASCAR
circuit anytime soon. However, the North Korean media would have you believe otherwise, as
they have often stated that Kim was a master race car driver by the age of three years old,
which is four years before he reportedly started driving.
7. 100 Cars
 How many friends do you usually invite to see a movie, whether it’s at your house or the
theater? Kim Jong-un is able to invite up to 1,000 people to see a private screening in his own
luxury cinema. The total cost for the project was nearly $200,000 and we are fairly certain he
hasn’t showed “The Interview”.
 Kim even has concessions available in his theater. It must be a lot of pressure to be the person
that makes Kim’s popcorn, as one misplaced drop of butter could be the last thing that they
ever do. Kim has spent a lot of money on a lot of useless things, but this could be one of the
worst, especially when no one else in North Korea has their own cinema, much less popcorn.
