Crazy than his son
The leader was Russian and forced staff to take drugs
He spent $ 700,000 a year on expensive cognac
It seems that the whole posture of Kim Jong Il radiates something strange. Maybe because of his style of dress, and maybe because of his ability to look at everything without a smile. Whatever the reasons, there is definitely no shortage of funny and strange facts about him. Although he was inherited by at least the equally strange and no less controversial son Kim Jong Un, it is worth remembering how “crazy” Kim Jong Il is.
So, let’s start over – the year of birth. Namely, this is not known for sure. According to Kim Jong Il’s official biography, he was born on February 16, 1942, in a secret military camp on North Korea’s Bekdu Mountains during the Japanese occupation, and prophets say he will “appear” under a double rainbow in the sky. a new star will be born. But the truth seems much more convincing. Namely, according to Soviet data, Kim Jong Il was born in the Siberian village of Vyatskoye in 1941. So the former North Korean leader is actually a Russian.
Another detail of the North Korean leader’s life is his fear of flying, which is why he prefers to travel by armored private trains and unofficially in one he eventually died.
Deports all lowly people
According to one of his former teachers, Kim Jong Il uses brochures advertising growth drugs. In this way he lures the low people into his trap. They would like to buy such a medicine, but in reality there is no cure. Anyone interested in the drug in question is caught and deported to the “uninhabited North Korean islands.” In this way, Kim is trying to remove their genetic code from the North Korean people. The deportees were never found.
According to North Korean national television, Kim Jong Il is the best athlete in the world or at least a golfer. Namely, in 1994, “Dear Leader” broke the golf record. He only needs one hit for 11 of 18 holes, so his total score of 38 hits is the best in the history of this game. And the most interesting thing is that this is Kim Jong Il’s first meeting with golf, he has never played before.
He kidnaps two directors
The former leader of North Korea is a big movie buff. He has more than 20,000 films in his collection and reportedly his favorites are “Friday the 13th”, “Rambo” and “Godzilla”. In 1973, Kim also wrote a book, On Film Art, which became a handbook for all North Korean directors. Dissatisfied with their films, he takes matters into his own hands. No, he doesn’t make films, but in 1978 he kidnapped a respected South Korean directorial couple (Shina Sang Oka and Choi Yun Hee) and forced them to remake Godzilla. Their film, called Pulgasari, only hit theaters when the couple was forcibly married in 1983 after years in a refugee camp. They managed to escape to Vienna in 1986, where they applied to the American embassy.
He kills his brother
According to one rumor, Kim Jong Il killed his younger brother at the age of five. Kim Shu Ra drowns in the pool of the family house in Pyongyang. Soviet media reported that the young future leader may have been responsible for the incident.
Kim Jong Il spends $ 700,000 a year on expensive cognac. According to a study by Dr. Gerold Post, a former CIA psychologist, Kim adores Hennessey cognac, which sells for about $ 63 a bottle in North Korea. This is slightly below the average salary in the country. According to Dr. Post, Kim spends between $ 650 and $ 720,000 a year on this cognac.
Perhaps the strangest thing that can be found on the Internet about Kim Jong Il is that he goes to the place where “the king goes on foot.” Namely, according to the official biography published on the state website of North Korea, Kim Jong Il never went to the toilet because the “Dear Leader” never needed it. Although this information was downloaded from the web shortly after its publication, the legend still remains.
Internet expert
North Koreans are not free to use mobile phones and the Internet, but their former leader is considered a communications expert. “I’m an expert on the Internet, too,” he told the South Korean president in 2007. “It’s good to have the Internet in the industrial zone, but there will be a lot of problems if we allow it in other areas of North Korea.” Kim Jong Il then.
A former member of Kim Jong Il’s team is writing a book in which he said that “Dear Leader” is forcing his staff to take the same painkillers as him. Why? So that he is not the only one dependent on them. By the way, Kim Jong Il became addicted to these drugs after suffering an unpleasant fall from a horse. He is forcing waitresses at Pyongyang’s restaurants frequented by foreigners to undergo plastic surgery to look more “Western.”
When he has to give up cigarettes due to ill health, Kim Jong Il forces the whole country to do the same – ban cigarettes and tobacco products for everyone. One of Kim’s former chefs said in 2004 that their leader developed a refined taste for French wine, lobster and donkey meat. Kim is also obsessed with rice. The “Dear Leader” instructs the female staff to check every rice grain they eat to be of standard length, weight and color.
