Kim Jong-un, seen here on 31 August, vanished from view for weeks
North Korean leader Kim Jong-un has made his first public appearance since 3 September, the state news agency says.
The official KCNA agency said Mr Kim "gave field guidance'' on Tuesday at a newly built scientists' residential district.The absence of the 32-year-old leader has prompted a flurry of speculation.
Official media have cited unspecified personal "discomfort" as grounds for Mr Kim's absence from public view.
On Sunday, North Korea's ambassador to London told the BBC that Mr Kim was in good health.
KCNA said that Mr Kim was briefed on the Wisong Scientists Residential District "before a map showing its bird's-eye view" and that he then "overlooked it".
It also said that Mr Kim "visited the newly built Natural Energy Institute of the State Academy of Sciences''.
