Dennis Rodman Returns to North Korea for Second Visit This Year 🇰🇵

MANILA, Philippines – Former NBA star Dennis Rodman arrived for his second visit to North Korea this year, but he’s not in town to negotiate the release of a jailed American missionary. There had been media speculation that Rodman would try to secure the freedom of Kenneth Bae, who has been sentenced to 15 years in jail after being convicted of trying to overthrow the Pyongyang government. Rodman’s latest trip is being sponsored by an Irish bookmaker, and he said en route that he was going to meet his friend, Kim Jong Un, and possibly help start a basketball league. Rodman met the North Korean leader on his first trip this year. Kim, 30-years-old and the third of his line to rule North Korea, is a basketball fan and appeared to get on well with Rodman on the earlier visit. Mornings @ ANC, September 4, 2013
