To be clear, nobody actually thinks Kim Jong Un doesn't need to use the restroom. You can say anything you want about the DPRK and people will believe you, which ends up being a clickbait race for tabloid media (which is where stories like the no peeing thing come from).
So this was just bullshit? I thought this was the party line.
Most of what's reported about the DPRK is bullshit. It's closer to Cuba than it is to, say, the mythical religious state that worships the party and eats rats that is often reported as.
