North Korean leader Kim Jong-un is reportedly furious over recent mass defections and has ordered retaliation against South Koreans.

"Major targets include South Korean regulars at North Korean restaurants," said an unidentified North Korean source, according to Yonhap News Agency, Friday.

The source said the plan was to lure South Koreans into back rooms, drug them and smuggle them into North Korea.

"North Korean restaurants are expanding rooms inside restaurants for such a purpose," the source said.

The South Korean government held discussions with major domestic travel agencies last month and told them of the threat of North Korea targeting South Koreans abroad.
