Our Dear Leader’s son/amorphous bag of goo/successor has taken the next great step towards ruling North Korea – he bought himself a furry hat just like his dad’s. It’s not any old hat. The Fargo inspired accessory is made of otter fur by the hands of a master craftsman. Only if you’re very serious about ruling North Korea do you get to wear one of these.

On 23 and 24 January observers noted a fur hat atop Kim Jong-un’s head during a trip to the Mansudae Art Studio in Pyongyang where our Dear Leader likes to spend time pointing at things. The observers added, “The hat was customized by a foreign master craftsman using top-quality otter fur. It’s an unwritten rule that nobody else can wear such a hat, so if Kim Jong-un is also wearing one, it means he has now reached almost the same status as his father.”

You’ll notice the young-un in the picture above peeping over Kim Snr’s shoulder looking particularly smug.

Here he is again posing with his dad and some highly decorated officials. Highly decorated, yet without that essential accessory – a hat made of otter fur.
