Large luxury yachts belonging to North Korean leader Kim Jong Un appeared active off the coast of Wonsan over the weekend, around the time state media implied he was in the area, according to NK Pro analysis of satellite imagery. 

The timing indicates Kim could have been using his yachts to relax off the east coast in secret even as he has recently sought to project an image of himself managing disaster response and taking care of food shortage issues.

Kim blamed local officials near Wonsan for flooding and praised military-led recovery efforts last week
