Some pictures have hit the web of Kim Jong Un visiting a pickling factory, and his outfit is incredible.

The North Korean dictator rocked a white t-shirt, a hat and a massive smile in the four photos Oliver Hotham recently tweeted out.

Without a doubt, the first two photos are the funniest. First off, they couldn’t appear more staged if the North Koreans tried. That’s part of the humor behind the whole thing. It’s almost like we’re supposed to forget he’s a murderous dictator because he’s also really fat and has a big smile.

Also, major props to whoever made the decision for him to wear the hat. Is that violent tyrant Kim Jong Un, or is that retired fisherman in the Florida Keys? Honestly, with that hat on, I’m not sure anymore. He looks less focused on starting a nuclear war, and much more focused on grabbing a few Cuban cigars as he tells stories about the good old days.

The outfit without the hat is still pretty comical, but the casual southern farmer vibe is just too much for me to handle. Yes, he’s one of the worst guys on the planet, but sometimes you just have to tip your hat to a man’s great hat choice.
