The dictator, 김 정일 <심층취재>

 

And we’re going to take a closer look now at the mysterious man who is the focus of the world’s attention and concern tonight. North Korea’s leader Kim Jong Il who ordered the launch 발사 of those 7 missiles. At home 자국 내에서, the state-controlled media calls him dear leader. Many of the West call him cruel and ruthless 무자비한, 냉혹한 dictator 독재자. More now from ABC’s Bill Wier.

 

While the world heaps scold on ~에게 심한 비난을 주다 Kim Jong Il, opinion polls 여론 조사 within North Korea are unlikely to change. After all <문두에서> 아무튼, 어쨌든, they’re not allowed public opinions or any outside information. The self-proclaimed 스스로 선언한 dear leader 경애하는 지도자 has isolated 고립시키다 his country unlike any other dictator in recent history.

 

Before succeeding 승계하다 him as leader, he was his father’s master propagandist <대개 정치적> 선전원 and helped turned Kim Il Sung from president into deity 신적 존재. When the elder died, he took over as demigod 반신반인, 숭배받는 인물. And ever since, every event from children’s dance recitals 무용 발표회 to massive military parades, are designed to glorify 찬양하다 the man in charge 실권을 쥐고 있는.

 

While foreign media is strictly 엄격히 forbidden 금지된, Kim is a satellite television junky 광 with a home video library of 20,000 films. And while at least 2 million North Koreans starve to death 굶어 죽다 under his reign 통치, 지배, Kim was spending around three quarters of a million dollars a year on cognac.

 

“He lives in a 7-story Pleasure Palace 환락궁 in Pyongyang. He recruits young girls at a junior high school level for the, quotes, joy brigades 기쁨조.” Professor Gerald Post prepared a psychological profile of Kim for the US government. He calls him a malignant 매우 위험한 narcissist 자기 도취자. “He has every grain <쌀과 보리 등의> 낱알 of rice that he’s going eat hand-inspected. Any that is slightly chipped 깨지다 will be discarded 버리다.”

 

But beyond the bouffant 불룩한 hairdo 헤어 스타일 and platform shoes 통굽 구두, those that have met the diminutive 아주 작은 man call him anything but 결코 ~이 아니다 mad. He is, they say, shrewd 영리한, calculating 빈틈없는, and determined to stay in power. “He’s crazy like a fox 여우처럼 교활한, 빈틈없는. He’s unpredictable. He’s reckless 무모한. But you have to take them seriously.”
