"While you are forced to tighten your belts and live on little, this is how Kim Jong-un and his family live." This is the tenor of the myriad of leaflets that a group of South Korean activists are passing across the border of the 38th parallel to inform the people of the "hermit state" of the well-being and opulence that the dictator indulges in together with a small circle of privileged loyalists.

The leaflets, accompanied by photos, reportedly reached the North Korean capital Pyongyang, causing a stir and even the ire of Kim and his entourage.

In the flyers, the supreme leader is shown wearing a luxury watch on his wrist, strictly Swiss: a $13,400 IWC Schaffhausen.

Even favorite daughter Ju-ae is in the crosshairs for her Dior leather jacket worth several thousand dollars . And again: Kim Yo-jong , the big boss's younger sister, loves designer bags, and a luxury bag was also shown off by the minister. Foreign Minister Choe Son-hui during a summit in Russia.

The leaflets – delivered across the border by drones – also inform about the US dollars – an arch-enemy country – possessed by Kim's family and also about his passion for K-pop songs, which are strictly forbidden in North Korea.

As mentioned, the counter-propaganda launched by activists, many of whom are North Koreans who have taken refuge in the South, has infuriated the leader and his inner circle. Kim Yo-jong, the regime's number two, has even gone so far as to threaten the "destruction of Seoul" if the drone strikes continue.
