- The exhibition displayed more than 70,700 items of clothing across over 30 types and more than 170,000 pairs of shoes in over 60 kinds, produced at factories under Kim's regional development initiative.
- State media published photos Tuesday countering unfounded claims that Kim had died or fallen into a coma in Beijing, as the rumors lacked any credible evidence.
- Unfounded health rumors spread on social media starting Sunday when anti-Chinese Communist Party profiles claimed without evidence that Kim had died or been hospitalized, reaching tabloids before official confirmation.
