Kim Jong-un is the current Supreme Leader of North Korea, and there are several key points about him:

  1. Background: Kim Jong-un was born on January 8, 1984, in Pyongyang, North Korea. He is the third son of former North Korean leader Kim Jong-il and his wife, Ko Yong-hui.

  2. Rise to power: After his father’s death in December 2011, Kim Jong-un was declared the supreme leader of North Korea. He was only 27 years old at the time, and his succession was unexpected.

  3. Political ideology: Kim Jong-un follows the ideology of Juche, which is a blend of Marxism and extreme nationalism. He has also emphasized the importance of developing North Korea’s nuclear capabilities as a means of protecting the country’s sovereignty.

  4. Human rights: North Korea under Kim Jong-un has been widely criticized for its human rights abuses, including forced labor, public executions, and political repression.

  5. Relations with the US: Kim Jong-un has met with US President Donald Trump twice, in 2018 and 2019, to discuss North Korea’s nuclear program. However, no significant progress has been made towards denuclearization.

  6. Personal life: Kim Jong-un is married to Ri Sol-ju and has at least two children. He is known to be a fan of basketball, especially the NBA, and has a close relationship with former NBA player Dennis Rodman.

Hidden cameras expose Kim Jong-un’s clandestine weapon and drugs trade | 60 Minutes Australia

30 mrt. 2021

Like a petulant child who doesn’t get its way, North Korea likes to throw tantrums. A few days ago the rogue state reminded the world how troublesome it is by launching several short-range missiles in the first weapons tests since President Joe Biden took office, sending a sharp message to the new US administration. But behind the aggression, dictator Kim Jong-un is in serious trouble as his regime teeters on bankruptcy. Tom Steinfort, one of the few western journalists to have reported from the hermit kingdom on multiple occasions, says North Korea desperately needs cash and is willing to do almost anything to get it, even selling weapons and drugs on the black market. Now though, these long-suspected crimes have been fully exposed by the unlikely combination of an extraordinary hidden-camera sting and a heartbroken family determined to get justice for their son, who travelled to North Korea for an adventure holiday but ended up imprisoned and tortured to death.

4 okt. 2021

He’s the world’s most enigmatic and dangerous dictator, cultivating an air of secrecy around himself and never giving interviews. But what do we really know about Supreme Leader and ’Rocket Man’, Kim Jung Un? Posing as tourists, we travelled to Pyongyang to experience life under his autocracy.

Born the third son, by Kim Jong II’s second wife, Kim Jong-un’s childhood remains somewhat mysterious. When he succeeded his father in 2011, many thought he was too young and weak to take power. They under-estimated him. He soon removed or executed all of the most powerful members of the regime. The most notorious ’elimination’ was the murder of his older half-brother, Kim Jong Nam, in Malaysia.

Back in Pyongyang, Kim Jong Un recently declared that he wants two million foreigners to visit the country each year. But the experience of American tourist and student, Otto Warmbier, is bound to put many off. After being arrested for stealing a propaganda poster and imprisoned for two years, Warmbier died shortly after being returned to America in a coma. According to rumours, he had also tried to access a forbidden floor in the hotel. All over Pyongyang – from the museum of American atrocities to leaders’ statutes in the main square – Kim Jong Un’s propaganda is omnipresent. At the age of 34 – in addition to his career as leader – Kim Jong-un has apparently already taken the time to author a dozen books.

All over the city, people are uniform, synchronised and smiling. But above all, subservient. At all times, North Korea remains a society under control.

Released in 2017.

10 jul. 2020

This documentary provides a rare glimpse of change in the notoriously closed country. Filmmakers Gregor Möllers and Anne Lewald discretely shot the video on trips to North Korea in 2013 and 2017, when they were not allowed autonomy or spontaneity.
Despite the fact that their itinerary was arranged for them in advance and guides chaperoned them everywhere, the two Berliners found a way to register their impressions. They depict a city lacking authenticity, a country longing for reunification and a people shaped by Juche beliefs and socialist propaganda. In a society steeped in obfuscation and spectacle, where deception is necessary for perception and expression, the filmmakers were forced to play a double role, secretly recording without permission while also genuinely relating to their hosts. By blending travelogue and espionage, A Postcard from Pyongyang captures what happens when you rely solely on what you see, not what you’re told, and reveals a reality Kim Jong-Un’s regime doesn’t want foreigners to see.

4 What happened to Otto Warmbier in North Korea? | DW Documentary

27 nov. 2020

US student Otto Warmbier was sentenced to 15 years in a North Korean labor camp in 2016. Warmbier was released the following year, but he died of brain damage shortly after his return to the United States. Was he really the victim of torture?

Otto Warmbier was sentenced to 15 years hard labor in 2016 after being convicted of attempting to steal a propaganda poster during a trip to Pyongyang. Just over a year on he was dead, having been sent home to the US in a vegetative state. US President Donald Trump tweeted that he had been “tortured beyond belief ” in North Korea. The US president blamed both the North Korean leader Kim Jong Un and the Obama administration for Warmbier’s death – and Trump appeared before the media with the student’s parents. This was at the peak of the North Korean missile crisis. Later, as relations between Trump and Kim Jong Un became warmer, the US president changed his tune. In 2019 Trump said that he believed that Kim did not know what happened to the US student much to the consternation of Warmbier’s parents.

What really happened to Otto Warmbier in North Korea? Veteran foreign correspondent Klaus Scherer sets out to try to find out. In the documentary, Scherer interviews a number of people with knowledge of the case who have been largely unheard up to now. He shows that a US court investigating a liability case against North Korea brought by Warmbier’s parents also ignored important witnesses, who continue to cast doubt on the torture allegations. These include the coroner in Cincinnati who examined Warmbier’s body. She believes that the account given by North Korean doctors is credible. They claim that Warmbier had inadvertently been given too high a dose of sedatives by prison staff. This, the medics say was the cause of his state of unresponsive wakefulness. Could Trump’s initial torture charges simply have been motivated by political opportunism?

6 Bureau 39: Cash for Kim (Part 2) | People and Power

1 okt. 2020

How is it possible that North Korea, one of the poorest countries on earth, manages to finance a nuclear weapons programme? 
 
The answer is through Bureau 39, a secretive organisation hidden deep inside the government apparatus. Its aim is to procure foreign exchange, by any means possible, to fund Kim Jong Un’s regime. 
 
From printing counterfeit dollars and profiting from slave labour sent overseas, to illegally selling arms, committing insurance fraud and widespread computer hacking, the inventiveness of North Korea’s sanction busters knows no bounds. 
 
In this two-part investigation, filmmakers Sebastian Weis and Carl Gierstorfer gain remarkable access to whistleblowers previously involved in these activities. They reveal how for decades North Korea has been circumventing UN sanctions to finance its nuclear arsenal and how Kim’s money men have repeatedly managed to outwit the West.

Kim’s Cash Flow: The Brutal Money System of North Korea | Bureau 39 | ENDEVR Documentary

How is it possible that North Korea, one of the poorest countries on earth finances a nuclear weapons programme large enough to challenge the USA? The answer: Bureau 39, a legendary organization nestled deep inside the government apparatus. Its aim is to procure foreign exchange by any means possible to provide Kim Jong-un’s regime with money.

Printing dollars, dealing drugs, smuggling arms, insurance fraud, human trafficking – nothing is too unscrupulous for North Korea’s money makers.

Years of research have given us unique access to insiders. They reveal the most spectacular cases and breath-taking tricks of how North Korea has been circumventing UN sanctions to finance its nuclear arsenal for decades.

Another went to work in a bank in Singapore. 
 
Over the years, an estimated 150,000 North Korean workers have been sent abroad to raise money for the ruling Kim family. 
 
This film reveals the men and women who help generate billions of dollars for North Korea – from former high-ranking officers to the workers who toil in factories and on construction sites around the world, only to have most of their salaries go directly back to the pariah state. 
 
101 East meets defectors who say the cash earned overseas goes directly to the Kim family and has helped fund the development of their nuclear missile program. 
 
A former high-ranking official reveals how former leader Kim Jong-il created ‘Office 39’, which manages thousands of companies and factories overseas and provides half of the country’s gross domestic product. 
 
That money comes from labourers like Lim II. 
 
He describes how he worked day and night on a construction site in Kuwait for five months but was never paid any wages. Instead, he says, his salary was sent straight back to Pyongyang. 
 
Another defector, Kim Kwang-jin, says he made tens of millions of dollars for North Korea when he was sent to Singapore in the early 2000s to work for the country’s North East Asia Bank. 
 
“Our main goal was to make foreign cash and this foreign cash business is a complete secret,” he says.

Uncover hard truths in the underbelly of Asia.

Fishing ships from North Korea, discovered with dead bodies onboard, have been washing up on Japan’s shores. We investigate why there has been a spike in the number of these “ghost ships”.

 
 

12 dec. 2019

A growing number of North Korean fishing boats are washing up on the shores of Japan.

Sometimes there are survivors but often they carry a tragic cargo of corpses from the so-called “Hermit Kingdom”.

Shizuo Sato recalls the day he made a grim discovery on Japan’s west coast.

“We’ve known of many ghost ships found in this area,” he says. “We all thought that if it’s a dead body, it must be a North Korean.”

These mysterious “ghost ships” are a diplomatic, logistical and financial nightmare for Japan, costing millions of dollars in police investigations, clean-up operations and repatriation of survivors and human remains.

In December 2017, eight North Korean fishermen washed up dead on Japan’s Oga peninsula.

The remains of the fishermen are still in limbo. For now, they are being kept at a temple by a local monk, Ryosen Kojima.

“The eight bodies were cremated and the ashes are temporarily kept here,” says Ryosen. “I imagine the crews died with unimaginable fear.”

While analysts debate what the ghost ships may reveal about the secretive nation, in Japan, the shipwrecks remind some of a dark past when North Korean spies abducted Japanese citizens.

“We’ve been warned not to get too close to North Korean ships, as they might do something bad to us,” says Ken Honma, a fisherman who spends nine months of each year in a fishing zone about 500 kilometres (311 miles) from the North Korean port city of Chongjin.

11 Abducted By North Korea (North Korea Documentary) | Real Stories

3 feb. 2017

In the 1970s and 80s, hundreds, possibly thousands, of men, women and children were abducted by North Korea’s Secret Service on the orders of Kim Jung II. The majority of these victims came from Japan and South Korea but it’s believed that nationals from at least 11 other countries, including Thailand, Romania, Holland and France were also taken. Some were abducted to teach North Korean spies their language and culture so that their spies could integrate more easily in foreign countries. Others were taken to provide wives for American deserters or North Korean army officers. The fate of most of these hostages is still unknown. Some were held hostage in the totalitarian dictatorship for 40 years before finally being released. Others died or were killed in captivity. However some may still be alive and being held against their will. We investigate the phenomenon of the North Korean abductees.

Please do not judge the North Korean people in this video. It is impossible to make a fully balanced view of the country by traveling there – on a controlled guided tour. This video is simply presented to give you an indication of my travel experience and my thoughts after returning.

North Korea is a unique, if not slightly weird experience. It was safer than many countries I’ve visited. Hopefully, this will give you another perspective on the DPRK.

26 Visiting North Korea | DW Documentary

29 dec. 2017

Few tourists manage to peek behind the iron curtain of North Korea’s dictatorship. But the journalist Luca Faccio managed to visit Kim Jong Un’s regime.

Anyone venturing behind the world’s last Iron Curtain into North Korea will experience a very different country to the one we know only through the usual images of rocket launches and mass rallies. The country is ruled by the dictator Kim Jong Un, whom the people worship – or are made to worship – as a god-like father figure. Little is known about daily life in North Korea, because all images that reach the outside world have been censored by the government. Visitors rarely see evidence of oppression, enforced conformity and starvation in the rural population. Still, journalist Luca Faccio is able to offer some interesting insights into the isolated country – although, of course, government watchdogs are on his heels everywhere he goes.

PLEASE RESTRAIN YOURSELF FROM leaving incriminating comments or accusing us of anything!! DPRK is a heavily controlled country and one can not film or go anywhere he wants. This is all what we could and were allowed to film.

Thank you for watching and respecting our work!

36 Mijn dagelijks leven in Noord Korea (mysterieuze reis van 7 dagen)

1 aug. 2016

UPDATE – Een jaar nadat ik Noord Korea heb bezocht, reisde ik naar Zuid Korea en heb een video vergelijking gemaakt van beide landen.

Bekijk het hier: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AJUSI…

Ik was altijd al geïnteresseerd in Noord Korea omdat het een van de meest uniek en mysterieuze landen is van de gehele wereld. Zo ziet mijn dag tot dag leven uit gedurende de 7 dagen verblijf in Noord Korea. Je kunt niet objectief beoordelen of dingen in scene is gezet of niet omdat zij alleen die plekken je laat zien die ze graag willen laten zien. Je mag niet eens aangeven waar je naar toe wilt gaan of wanneer. Zij vertellen je gewoon dat je in de bus moet stappen en vragen je op de locatie weer uit te stappen.

Daarom geef ik geen mening over of iets in scene is gezet of niet, wanneer en of ze juist of fout zijn, eerlijk of juist niet eerlijk zijn. Mijn doel was om het degelijks leven te bekijken en laat jou zelf de conclusie trekken en beoordelen.

Beoordeel Noord Korea niet uitsluitend van wat je hebt gezien in deze video. Dit is was zijn ons hebben laten zien en er zullen redenen zijn waarom ze iets wel en niet laten zien. En zo ook, hoe zij de mensen onder controle houden, kan slecht voor ons in scene zijn gezet.

41 A Day in the Life of North Korean Dictator Kim Jong Un

31 okt. 2018

What does Kim Jong Un live like? What does he do on daily basis?

Even though it has been 7 years since he assumed power, Kim Jong-un remains an enigmatic figure. In North Korea, he is revered as almost godlike thanks to the state ideology of juche. That’s what we’ll find out, in this episode of The Infographics Show, “What Kim Jong-un does in his daily life.”

Because North Korea is a closed society, information about Kim Jong-un’s whereabouts is tightly controlled. What we know about his daily life is pieced together from North Korea’s state-run media and from accounts of people who know him personally. Some aspects of his life are kept secret, but others have been widely publicized.

As the “Supreme Leader” of North Korea, Kim Jong-un must devote part of his day to running his country. Nearly every day, he makes official visits to places throughout North Korea, including factories, farms, and construction sites. Reports of these visits are posted online in a special “Supreme Leader Activities” section of Rodong Sinmun, the state newspaper of North Korea.

FRANCE 24 live news stream: all the latest news 24/7
http://f24.my/YTliveEN

As Kim Jong-un and Donald Trump surprise the world by agreeing to a historic meeting, we met with North Koreans who have fled the Pyongyang regime. Every year, hundreds of them risk their lives by fleeing the dictatorship. For more than a year, we followed two young women on their voyage to South Korea. They passed through China, then Laos, before finally reaching the safety of the South. FRANCE 24 brings you the story of their risky journey to freedom.
Every year, hundreds of North Koreans risk their lives in a bid to reach China. In the far north on the Chinese border, those who aspire to freedom must attempt to swim through the freezing waters of the Yalu and Tumen rivers to reach the other side. But the few North Koreans who do manage to reach China are soon disappointed.
We followed 23-year-old Mina and 25-year-old Sung Hee for over a year. On arrival in China, they were sold by traffickers and forced into marriage with Chinese peasants. After several years of a miserable existence in a rural province, the two young women decided to flee to South Korea.
►► Reporters: Millions of single Chinese men desperately seeking a wife
We meet them in Beijing, where they are chaperoned by Kim, another North Korean refugee, who fled the Pyongyang regime in 1999. A South Korean NGO provides them with fake ID documents.
The young women embark on a 4,000 kilometre-long journey by train, bus, car and on foot. The long road to South Korea involves travelling across China to reach Laos, south of the border. Throughout the risky voyage, lasting several days, the two fugitives are terrified they won’t make it to safety.

TRT World’s Imran Garda was invited to visit the so-called hermit kingdom to take part in the Pyongyang marathon and be shown the city’s tourist sites. It’s a country known for its ballistic missile tests, its nuclear capabilities and a well trodden path of sabre rattling. But it’s also a country governed by the Juche ideal of self reliance and a country with enormous national pride. A country of paradoxes, this is ‘The Newsmakers in North Korea.’

59 🚀 Visit to the Strange Land of North Korea (DPRK)

11 aug. 2017

This is a film about a traveller in the strange land called North Korea or officially the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK).

Tours to the DPRK are tightly scheduled and normally include a visit to the demilitarised zone, museums and statues to Kim Il-Sung and Kim Jong-Il, Pyongyang’s amusements parks, chandelier-laden metro system and showcase entertainment facilities such as the Circus and the SchoolChildren’s Palace. In addition to these, I took a flightseeing flight on a Mi-17 helicopter over the DPRK’s capital city of Pyongyang. As well, as my tour was an extended one, it also went the northeast of the DPRK to the tri-country area around the Rason Special Economic Zone where the DPRK, China and Russia conjoin.

The cult of the Kims is perhaps the most extraordinary feature of the DPRK. Images or statues of Kim Il-Sung and Kim Jong-Il are found everywhere. These graven images are effectively worshipped. This film shows scenes of the veneration of the Kims (Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il) that were witnessed.

The government guides control both what you can see and also what you can take photographs of. If you take a photograph of the military, construction or something that they feel does not portray the DPRK in a positive light then they force you to delete the photograph. On exiting the country, the border guards also reviewed photographs to see if they conformed to the aforementioned standards. Despite these restrictions, this film contains images that accurately portray the state of the country as I saw it.

How Kim Jong Un Spends His Billions

Despite being a leader of a socialist country like North Korea, Kim Jong Un surely knows how to live large. International experts have estimated that the “dear leader” has approximately 5 billion dollars in foreign bank accounts. However, these are just the accounts various intelligence agencies have found, while rumors spread that his fortune may as well be north of 100 billion. Whatever the exact sum is, Kim Jong Un lives one astonishingly lavish life, and although many of his subjects are constantly starving, the North Korean leader doesn’t shy away from flashing his wealth. Care to learn more about Kim’s ultra-luxurious lifestyle? Well, let’s dive right in.
