The Kim family have ruled North Korea for over seven decades but how did the original "Great Leader" get the job?
Questions surround the early days of Kim Il-sung and his dynasty.
102-year-old Professor Kim Hyung-suk came from the same village, and met him as he was starting out on his rise to power. ​

At the time they finished school, they can not recall or even remember the majority of the things they had learned. Subsequently, after graduation, they become fuels to the economical crisis -- to prolong perversity in all ways. They basically learned nothing because their souls are immature due to artificial learning. Now, they want to destroy the world system. 😯😯😯💪 I suggest that they should start facilitating indoor farming like the farming methods of the Singaporeans. They should also focused on how to build their own houses. Most kids want a fiancee at a young age and live in a nice home. Rightfully so! They need some type of inheritance from government initiatives. Hehehehe... The BLM needs to be improved and allow people to get more resources. I would certainly support these ideas.

Many legends circulated about Kim Il Sung during the anti-Japanese war due to the underground character of the KPRA, but the young General named Kim Il Sung was actually Kim Song Ju. The name Kim Il Sung ("becoming the Sun") was given to him by his comrades around 1928, and initially he did not even like it.

Having clear ambitions and goals and the strong will of a cause/ideology is very powerful. Afghanistan is an example, the taliban truly believe in their cause and will die for it, others fight because its a job. Vietnam vs America. Afghans vs Russia. Americans vs UK in revolutionary war. If you believe so strongly in your cause, you find you will triumph in the end against overwhelming odds, often people don't have a true sense of belief in something and crumble at constant pressure.

The idea that there was a big anti-Japanese Korean resistance general in his 50s named Kim Il Sung and that the Chinese communists and/or Stalin decided to replace this famous resistance general by the person we know today as Kim Il Sung, who was in his 30's and just trained as a communist puppet while others like the true Kim Il Sung fought the Japanese, is really interesting.

Alcathous I’ve actually known about this theory for many years.

I 100% believe this 102-year-old man, looks to me like he’s simply confirming the theory. I’ve also listened to a testimony from a different senior defector who was actually a small child at one of Kim Il-sung’s speeches in the 40s and he said that people in the audience were out loud saying “Isn’t he a fake? He’s too young”

Hard to say. Britain was just waiting for Germany to do something stupid, like attacking the Soviet Union or declaring war on the USA, which is what happened. And I also think that even if Russia had remained a monarchy (which, by the way, would have been a hundred times better for Russia and the world), Nazi Germany would still have been defeated by Russia. And even if Germany had not attacked the Soviet Union, it would still have had to somehow defeat the USA to end the Western world, which would have been virtually impossible even if it had defeated Britain.

@@brianyang5075 I actually don't think so. Because of the defeat in World War I, the Treaty of Versailles, the distrust of democracy and the Weimar Republic, as well as the mistakes of the Weimar Republic, the Nazis would still come to power. The fear of communism was part of their ideology, but it was not so bad that they would not come to power. They would certainly have been more "reasonable" and perhaps would not have seen the Russians as "Untermenschen" either, but they probably would have come to power anyway, been so radical, and started World War II.

Soviet union was allied with nazi Germany at the beginning of the war. The two invaded Poland and annexed it between themselves. Then the soviets helped to supply Germany's war effort right up until the moment the first German soldier stepped foot onto Russian occupied Poland. Soviet union didn't save anything. In the east it was simply one genocidal mass murderer against another. The only liberated countries were in the west. Thanks to the western allies.

Believe it or not Kim Il Sung was actually a good leader unlike his son and grandson. Kim Il Sung is like their Winston Churchill. People loved him and weren’t forced to, like with Kim Jong Il and Kim Jong Un who are both nasty pieces of work. To hear this man’s stories is amazing.

Yes, senior KIM ,the leader seems to be good leader. See his pictures, he is always smiling. Looks like that it probably was natural ----- that naturally he had a smiling face. With a smiling face, he will mix with children and public. Vey uncommon that Communist leaders/elders/dictators have smiling faces. So this natural smile he had, that was a factor for being popular in public.

Exactly. Kim Il Sung was the one who kicked Japan out of both North and South Korea. Unlike his son and grandson, Kim Il Sung was really loved by North Koreans. Life under Kim Il Sung was even better than now. Sadly, Kim Il Sung is hated in South Korea because he was a communist, but do not forget that Kim Il Sung kicked Japan out of the Korean Penisula

Right now, the basis of human rights is a natural right held by all mankind on Earth that has transcended ideology and system, and North Korea is consistent with nonsense that cannot even be said to be "only possible under a socialist system, and only by suppressing certain classes." Also, one of the biggest characteristics of our style of human rights is that it is not a 'right granted to everyone. They openly respond in a way that some give human rights and others do not. This, too, is plainly revealed in North Korea's explanation of "our-style human rights." "We do not hide our class in human rights. "Social human rights are not super-class human rights that give freedom and rights to adversaries who oppose socialism and impurities who violate the interests of the people." Here, another word "socialist human rights" was used, but in the end, the object to be referred to is the "our style human rights" itself, which has been repeatedly described above. The point is one. Human rights themselves are not given to those who do not support the North Korean system. Is this a horse? Are you farting? Just looking at these points, you can see that North Korea's "Korean-style human rights" are about tens of thousands of light years away from the commonly accepted definition of human rights. The human rights they refer to function only under the condition of unconditionally praising the Kim Dynasty, and are also a "right" worse than a scrap of paper that is very easily deprived if violated. However, North Korea ignores this reality and says, "We are a country that protects human rights very well, and human rights are being suppressed in capitalist countries such as South Korea!"It's funny because they only talk nonsense like
