Kim Jong-un. How it is very hard to create new 'Greatest Korea' image - Polidicks

Even by the standards of the aptly named Hermit Kingdom, the youngest Kim is a cipher, a figure so intangible that he sometimes seems a phantom. He's thought to be 27 years old. Or maybe it's 28. He may or may not have gone to school in Switzerland. And although the ruling Korean Workers' Party has been lecturing North Koreans about him in ideological training sessions for more than a year, few dare mention his name in public. Even as the party convenes today, and is expected to elevate the youngest son of 68-year-old Kim Jong-il to the Politburo as a step towards taking over from his father, Kim Jong-un is so unknown that he probably could walk through the streets of Pyongyang without anyone looking twice. Only one confirmed photograph has been released, in which he appears to be about 12 years old.That has left the world's news media scrambling for an updated image. When South Korean intelligence reported last month that young Kim was accompanying his father on a trip to China, packs of photographers and reporters, most of them Japanese and South Korean, set off in hot pursuit. ''In this case, Kim Jong-il was definitely No.2. The photo everybody wanted was Kim Jong-un. That would have been the real victory,'' said a Chinese photographer, who asked not to be named because he previously had been arrested while trying to photograph the family. The photographer caught up with Kim's entourage outside a hotel in the Chinese city of Changchun and snapped a photo of a man behind a partly opened curtain in a limousine.[/quote] [img]http://images.smh.com.au/2010/09/27/1951742/Kim_Jong-Un-200x0.jpg[/img] North Korea will be Greatest Korea

I hope he's at least better than Kim Jong Il.

[quote]He may or may not have gone to school in Switzerland.[/quote] If he did, there may be a chance of an improved North Korea.

What an odd korea choice :downsrim:

I'd tap that

[QUOTE=RayDark;25088089]I hope he's at least better than Kim Jong Il.[/QUOTE] It surely won't be hard.... >_>

He would hold the wecord as the jongest wuler of a kommunist kountry

He looks like a cool dude

I'll be very interested to see the effect he has on the North Korean political direction when he gains full power. Perhaps we might be able to look forward to a less militaristic tone from them in the short term.

When I heard he would be taking over I instantly thought of that new game "Homefront". I need to get out more, although that trailer was fucking awesome.

[quote]Only one confirmed photograph has been released, in which he appears to be about 12 years old.[/quote] Sounds like they're mocking him "kim jong un jus sHUT UP ur about 12"

they all look the same, so hard to tell who he is. Till he starts to say that north korea is best korea

[QUOTE=smurfy;25091107]Sounds like they're mocking him "kim jong un jus sHUT UP ur about 12"[/QUOTE] no u shtu up i nuke ur cuntry biatch!!!!

I can imagine Kim Jong-Il dying and him just going "Sorry bout that, guys." and open up the borders.

[QUOTE=Jasun;25088147]What an odd korea choice :downsrim:[/QUOTE] god fucking damn it I've been preparing that pun all day and you beat me to it

[i]Some say that his age is either 18 or 37... While other say that his knowledge of America is based on the phrase "Fat pigs"...[/i]

Oh my god there are so many bad jokes in this thread it makes me want to vomit As for Kim Jong-un, he likely will be the same as his father. I hope not, but it seems most likely.

Kim Jong-un is supposedly more crazy than Il.

I really cannot believe that the rest of the people in power, as in the other members of the politburo and [I]especially[/I] the military (who effectively hold the real power in that country anyway) are willing to let this dumb monarchy continue. None of them want to step up and overthrow it, for better or for worse? Really??

I am pleased. I will make north korea greatest korea.

I guess they kept him so secret so they could send him to school abroad and stuff without any harsh anticommunists trying to assassinate him. :v:

[QUOTE=HolyCrusade;25092418]welcome to best korea. the entire population has been indoctrinated[/QUOTE] that's not a good enough reason in my opinion I have to believe that not every korean really believes the shit they're told, they just follow along so as not to get blackbagged and executed

[QUOTE=Kim Jong-un;25092451]I am pleased. I will make north korea greatest korea.[/QUOTE] Bitch please, I'm the best Great Leader. Kim Il-Sung, out.

Father approves of me [highlight](User was permabanned for this post ("Dumb gimmick" - Gurant))[/highlight]

too bad Jang Song-taek (second most powerful guy in NK, controls the military, Jong-il's best buddy and advisor) is gonna run this twerp any way he wants to

And the NK dynasty continues.
