A close inspection of the photograph published yesterday by the Korean Central News Agency suggests that the shadow cast by Mr Kim is very different to those cast by the soldiers standing alongside him.
Anthony, from Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia, commented on the news story accompanying the image: “Notice how the shadow of Kim's legs is vertical while those of the troops on both sides of him are at an angle.”
