A video claiming to be from the funeral of North Korea's supreme leader Kim Jong Un's funeral are going viral on social media. A Facebook page name KAM TV share a video with a Caption  "LIve North Korea dictator Kim Jong Un funeral"

The viral video recived 66,000 views and 332 share at the time of writing this article .

A twitter user name Assam Walla   share a picture of a dead body laid in a memorial palace with a claim that "Kim Jong Un is dead".

Fact Check 

We found that , the image appears to be a doctored version of a photograph of the late Kim Jong Il, Kim Jong Un’s father and North Korea’s former supreme leader, who died in 2011.

The video had the logo of news agency AP. After searching, we found the same video on Youtube Published by AP news on 30 July 2015 . Using caption "Scenes of mass grief as mourners line streets at funeral for Kim Jong Il- 2011".  The video clearly shows  Kim Jong-un walking beside his father's hearse at 52 second.

We also found a report of New York post  in which the same picture can be seen which is now getting viral . According to the caption written below the image " The body of North Korean leader Kim Jong Il is laid in a memorial palace in Pyongyang" .

Speculation about Kim’s health first arose after his absence from the April 15 anniversary birthday celebration of North Korea’s founding father Kim Il Sung, the grandfather of Kim Jong Un. According to a report President Donald Trump said Thursday that reports suggesting North Korea’s Kim Jong Un could be incapacitated were incorrect.  He said "I think the report was incorrect, let me just put it that way,” Trump said when asked at a White House press briefing if he knew of Kim’s condition.

The South Korea is confident that there is no basis to the recent swirl of rumors that the North’s leader, Kim Jong-un, ?is gravely ill, ?the South’s chief policymaker on the North? said in comments reported. “Our government has enough information-gathering capabilities to say confidently that there is nothing unusual” about Mr. Kim’s health, Kim Yeon-chul, South Korea’s unification minister, said during a forum. 

Conclusion, the viral video of  Kim Jong Un's funeral  is fake . We found that the video is of Kim Jong Il, Kim Jong Un’s father and North Korea’s former supreme leader, who died in 2011.
