FRONT PAGE: "North Korea's Leader Returns to Parliament," call-out pix for inside story, Wall Street Journal, 10 April 2009.

[Ed. Couldn't find the before and after, but here's a link to a Reuters video of Kim appearing at Parliament.]

Stunning comparison shots: vibrant, smiling Kim on left from October 2007 summit; frail, stiff Kim on right in shot from last week. New Kim has no smile and clear droop on left side of his face, giving his tight lipped look a decided asymmetry. He suddenly looks about 10 years older, especially since he doesn't seem interested in maintaining his hair dye job.

Honestly, it's almost like a father-son comparison.
