    Korea in Kim Jong Un's

    KOREA IN KIM JONG UN’S ERA Foreign Languages Publishing House DPR Korea Juche 108 (2019) PREFACE Entering the 2010s, Korea still had to endure trials and hardships because of the death of Chairman Kim Jong Il and the ever-increasing political, economical and military pressure imposed by the hostile forces. However, it has dynamically advanced without frustration and retreat only along the road of socialism it chose itself, braving all hardships, and it is now making leaps and bounds at a maximum speed towards the realization of the people’s ideals. What is behind these leaps and bounds? What does Korea today under the global eye rely on for its existence and under what banner does it advance and develop? The Editorial Board publishes the book Korea in Kim Jong Un’s Era, hoping it will help those people with such questions. 1 CONTENTS 1. ENJOYING TRUST OF THE PEOPLE ………………………… 3 2.

Kim A Thesis in the Field of International Relations for the Degree of Master of Liberal Arts in Extension Studies Harvard University November 2018 © 2018 Eugene Y. Kim Abstract Kim Jong-un’s sudden ascent to power reflected the untimely departure of his predecessor, Kim Jong-Il. For the people of North Korea as well as the rest of the world, his modus operandi has only slowly begun to reveal itself with time. While qualitative analyses based on his political movements exist, there is little to no quantitatively based literature that ties him to particular tendencies as a political actor. This thesis explores those tendencies and offers a comparatively useful operational code by analyzing six New Year’s speeches from 2013 to 2018. By building on a former study by Dr. Joseph Bond (1990), in which he gave operational codes to both Kim Jong-Il and Kim Il-Sung, this thesis utilizes his methodology of operational code analysis and develops a more cohesive picture of the enigmatic leader of North Korea, offering a comparative analysis of his tendencies as compared to that of his predecessors.
