Its star Dan Aykroyd said “harmless and puffy” things can turn evil.

Who is he gonna call? A stylist.

Last week, The Sun also reported on how the leader also paid a visit to a tactical missile plant, after touring some of the country’s major weapons factories last month.

Kim "expressed satisfaction" with a factory's "recent focus on tactical missile production" and "expanding production capacity" during his visits last week, state media KCNA reported on Monday.

He "presented a significant goal" to improve missile production, praised the latest operability of howitzer shells, and personally drove a combat armoured vehicle, they added.

This is the latest in a string of visits by the leader of the communist country to defense facilities where he has emphasized mass production of weapons.

Between last Thursday and Saturday, he visited a series of production lines of engines for strategic cruise missiles and unmanned aerial vehicles.

Kim also inspected factories producing shells for super large-calibre multiple rocket launchers and transporter-erector-launchers, which are normally used to fire ballistic missiles, according to a KCNA report from last Sunday.

He gave instructions for increasing production capacities at the factories as an important part of strengthening the country's defence capabilities, they added.

North Korea has tested rocket launchers for larger calibre shells, advanced cruise missiles, and, last month, its newest ballistic missiles including solid-fuel intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM).

Kim called for the mass production of "various kinds of cutting-edge strategic weapon engines... and thus make a great contribution to bringing about a revolution in developing new strategic weapons of our style," KCNA reported.
