SEOUL: An acquaintance of the half-brother of North Korean leader Kim Jong-un says he did not respond to advice to seek asylum in South Korea.

According to Yonhap News Agency as quoted in The Korea Herald, the South Korean resident in Malaysia said that he used to recommend that Kim Jong-nam go to South Korea rather than live in constant fear, as Seoul would protect him.
