Particular stance from a Korean leader over personal hygiene issue (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

akimbo

'particular stance' is the definition.
(eg 'arms akimbo' or 'legs akimbo')

'a korean leader over personal hygiene issue' is the wordplay.
'korean leader' becomes 'kim' (Kim Jong-un, leader of North Korea).
'over' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'personal hygiene issue' becomes 'BO' (body odour).
'a'+'kim'+'bo'='AKIMBO'

'from' is the link.

(Other definitions for akimbo that I've seen before include "Stance with hands on hips" , "Hands-on-hips" , "Bent outwards (as limbs)" , "(Arms) on hips" , "display of arms" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
