re: the generals

I don't think the generals would capture the power - they'd still have to reinstate and empower one of their own then. So in the end, it's just swapping one for another plus there'd create a big mess in the process.

re: mass weaping

It was really sad to watch it and I don't believe the people are faking it. It's a product of cult of personality. These people were indoctrinated to love their leader since childhood.

re: unification

It can only happen with one condition - the socio-economic gap between the two people must be minimal. Presently, it is at its maximum and the divide continues to grow. Had the unification happened today, the North Koreans would have gone South. They'd be unemployed there and lot's of social problem would have risen like crime.

You all must be devastated. Here is something to cheer you all up!

[shakey]

I'm more interested where all of this could lead... so many possibilities..... just want to watch it all progress. I just hope someone even crazier than the last doesn't come into power... just imagine how his son could be with someone as that as role model.

It will most likely be his son, but there are reports that some other powers at be could try and take it over. Would be interesting to see.

2. In 2004, Kim Jong-Il claimed to have invented the hamburger

Jong-il called them 'gogigyeopbbang,' which is Korean for 'double bread with meat.' Just rolls off the tongue, doesn't it?

3. Kim Jong-nam, the oldest son of Kim John-Il, was originally going to replace his father but lost his chance after a "botched attempt" to visit Japan's Disneyland

"In 2001, Kim Jong-nam and his entourage were detained at Narita airport, en route to Tokyo Disneyland. Kim had attempted to enter the country on a forged Dominican Republic passport, using the Chinese name Pang Xiong - Fat Bear. "

4. Kim Jong-Il was actually born in Siberia

That makes him Russian.

5. Kim Jong-Il once attempted to ship all the short people out of North Korea

"Jong-il?s government issued a letter to every short man and woman in the city, telling them of a new wonder drug which would boost them to average, if not beyond ? but, when the short people arrived, they found no drug present. Rather, they found themselves kidnapped, whisked away to parts unknown, in an attempt to rid Pyongyang?s gene pool of their substandard stature. These people were never heard from again."

6. Kim Jong-Il's father, Kim Il-sung, is technically still in charge of North Korea

That's right, the president of North Korea is a dead man.

7. Kim Jong-Il does not have an officially recognized date of birth

Soviet records list it as February 16th, 1941, while Korean records list it as 1942.

8. In 1978, Kim Jong-Il kidnapped director Shin Sang-ok and forced him to make a "socialist Godzilla" film

Sang-ok later escaped to the United States and directed Three Ninjas: Knuckle Up.

9. There is a flower, Kimjongilia, named after him

10. Kim Jong-Il has over 50 unique titles

These include: "Guiding Star of the 21st Century, Brilliant Leader, Commander-in-Chief, Guiding Sun Ray, Highest Incarnation of the Revolutionary Comradely Love, Party Center, Ever-Victorious, Iron-Willed Commander, and Dear Leader, who is a perfect incarnation of the appearance that a leader should have."

11. Kim Jong-Il "routinely shoots 3-4 hole-in-ones" every time he plays golf

12. Kim Jong-Il is a heavy drinker, reportedly spending spending about up to $800,000 a year on Hennessy cognac

All this until 2006, when a UN resolution effectively banned foreign goods from going to North Korea

Via: washingtonpost.com

13. Kim Jong-Il's favorite movies were Friday the 13th, Rambo, and Godzilla

14. Kim Jong-Il planned to breed giant rabbits to solve North Korea's hunger problems

"Despite Szmolinsky warning that the rabbits would make the situation worse - they only yield about 15 pounds of meat and have a huge appetite for carrots and potatoes - Kim insisted the animals should still be sent."

15. When he was forced to give up cigarettes for health reasons, Kim Jong-Il forced the entire country to do the same - effectively banning them

He has also banned "mobile phones, newspapers, the internet and books."

16. Kim Jong-Il reportedly injects his body with the "blood of virgins" in an effort to stay young

Via: independent.co.uk

17. Kim Jong-Il kept up a completely deserted propaganda city

Kij?ng-dong is a city right on the border between North and South Korea. The city contains "a number of

brightly painted buildings and apartments" that, upon closer inspection, are just "concrete shells lacking

window glass or even interior rooms, with building lights turned on and off at set times and empty sidewalks

swept by a skeleton crew of caretakers" to give the city the "illusion of activity."

18. Kim Jong-Il's biography claims his birth was "foretold by a swallow and heralded by a glorious double rainbow and the appearance of a new star"

19. And that he can control the weather

20. His biography also says that he does not defecate or urinate

No wonder he was so full of ****.

Can only post one image at a time. More than one gives an error at Neowin, saying your post is too short.

So that explains this: :laugh:

Idk something doesn't feel right when poking fun at the dead even if they are tyrants.

Idk something doesn't feel right when poking fun at the dead even if they are tyrants.

I know what you mean. But he and his father were directly responsible for a huge amount of deaths.

We may never know the exact figure, since it was such a closed country.

It was deaths after deaths.

Idk something doesn't feel right when poking fun at the dead even if they are tyrants.

Normally, I'd be inclined to agree, but this guy and his dad have essentially destroyed an entire nation, and their own at that, so I find it very hard to sympathise with him or anyone who aligns with him. This is a country so destroyed by it's forced belief system that even the Chinese give them a wide berth. In a world of crazy countries, NK is Gary Busey.
