It has been just over ten years since the death on 17 December 2011, of North Korean dictator Kim Jong-iI, who had ruled North Korea with an iron fist for 17 years. He was succeeded by a young and at the time unknown Kim Jong-un, a 29-year-old who had grown up in Switzerland and was a diehard NBA fan.
A decade later on VisualPolitik we ask some questions: How has North Korea changed during this time? How did the young Kim manage to consolidate his leadership in a regime dominated by old glories? What lies behind the major decisions taken by the leader? And perhaps the most important question of all: where is North Korea headed? In this video we tell you all the details.

all your content is stupid.. channel for propaganda purposes
Sell out. Boooooooooooooooo!!!
Fundamentally, I don’t think the Kim dynasty can open the DPRK up to the global economy or even to a place like China’s economy without completely undermining its legitimacy with the people of NK. The regime built itself on this idea that it was the ideal society for the Korean people and that no system is better outside of it. Once the average North Korean takes that blindfold off completely it’s going to be difficult and costly for the Kims to put the lid back on the bottle.
You would be surprised. Korean culture could accommodate it if put to the people correctly. Tyranny is one way, and the NK's are straight up brainwashed.
excellent analysis
Maybe. China is an example that people will choose willful ignorance as long as their standards of living improve.
@@badluck5647
Is it really willful ignorance though? Just slap a crown in Xí's head and you basisally have Imperial China's policies, especially the more expansionist Emperors Tianzong and Han Wudi.
@@prestonjones1653 The Chinese people aren't stupid, so their belief in statements from the Communist Party that are full of contradictions or defy common sense must be willful ignorance.
I don't think North Korea would ever dismantle its nuclear program they saw what happened in Lybia even without the Kim regime I don't see them getting rid of the nukes because a new government would still need legitimacy with the people because Korea is in the middle of great powers like China Russia USA and Japan so don't expect democracy at best the government structure will be like Singapore or China
Never trust the west
Never trust usa
Singapore is more like a corporation than a government dictator ship in ways.
@@koharumi1 what ?
Unfortunately, in a chaotic place like China you need a heavy hand to get anything done. If you look at China before the CCP came into power, it was already a political mess. You had multiple factions vying for power against a backdrop of poverty and inequality.
Your use of named eras in Kim’s economic and military approaches is helpful. A future video on the background and political prospects of his surly sister would be fun and thought-provoking.
Protesters against nuclear power plants say, "If you protest nuclear power plants, yakuza and ko-an, the secret police of Japan, at COINTELPRO alternatively come to you. Today, yakuza and the corrupt cops came at a time!
The police in Japan are busy in COINTELPRO stalking and harassments, and make no effort to catch truly evil criminals, such as North Korean agents who abduct over two hundred Japanese citizens. Due to the police negligence, more and more Japanese will be victimized with those terrorists.
Ikeda, Daisaku the cult leader of Soka-gakkai in Japan, is also a Korean. Many corrupt cops in COINTELPTRO belong to Soka-gakkai cult.

N.korea is the real Korea with real Korean culture unlike south 🤡
Mate people were worried about Kym jung un , he’s sister is a scary woman
11:00 there were couple of documentaries showing Poland allowing North Korean workers as the working visa aplication did not include North and South Koreas but just "Korea" (both recognized by Poland, both have embassies there) to go around the sanctions.
Kim Jong Un should just call himself king of Korea North and proclaim the new Kim Dynasty.
Kim Jong Il: "Hey Satan, while you feed me to these Pirhanas, is there any news from back home?"
Satan: "Well- apparently the country is in catastrophic recession, completely isolated, all previous gains are gone, the people are living under the terror of the military goons, a plague is rampant, floods are decimating the countryside, and famine is widespread again."
Kim Jon Il: "That's my boy!"
Kin Jong II got a meeting with Satan, while his son got a meeting with Trump. Things are looking good for the Kim family.
Perfect timing, I was just about to mow the lawn

There's a common but major misconception about Byungjin presented here that needs correcting, and that is the idea that 1) Byungjin was a "new" policy invented by Kim Jong Un and 2) that it was meant to promote spending more on the civilian economic sector to make it equal to that of the military.
The exact opposite is the case.
Byungjin was invented by KJU's _grandfather_ Kim Il Sung over half a century ago, and it was meant to promote spending more on the military to make it equal to that of the civilian sector.
BR Myers, an excellent researcher of North Korea, describes this in detail in a book titled "North Korea's Juche Myth," but he put it more succinctly in an article titled "A Note on Byungjin" which he published back in 2017 (at the height of the nuclear drama with NK).
_"Byungjin is not Kim Jong Un’s invention, nor does it stand for any toning down of the military-first policy, let alone for the de facto end of it... The personality cult tolerates no insinuation of a need to correct previous infallible leaders._
_The sloganization of the word byungjin dates back to the early 1960s - 1962 saw the most-quoted reference - when Kim Il Sung invoked it to elevate the importance of armament and war readiness to that of economic development. It made its debut, as a MILITARIST slogan..."_
We now know from declassified East Bloc diplomatic records that North Korea was gearing up for another invasion of South Korea during this time. NK had been entirely rebuilt after the Korean War and was awash with East Bloc aid, and Kim Il Sung was desperate to have another crack at "liberating" the "Yankee colony" in "southern Korea." It took combined diplomatic effort of the entire East Bloc in order to restrain him.
My take on "KJU's Byungjin" is that it was NK's attempt to coopt the black market that had emerged (and actually flourished) in the years after the 1990s famine under Kim Jong Il's rule. In other words, KJU would allow the black market to turn into a legal and legitimate private sector that could service the civilian economy, so long as they chipped in and contributed to military/nuclear spending as well (instead of hiding their money under mattresses and floorboards like they used to).
And while it is true that the party has been taking a larger roll in governing the country, the party has been taking in more people from the military than ever.
(In international relations, this is called "trading khakis for suits"; when a military dictatorship assumes the veneer of civilian leadership by invading the civilian institutions in that country.)
North Korea calls itself "Songun Choson," which literally means "Military-First Korea." They would never even dream of abandoning the Military-First Policy because it is directly tied to the ideology, identity and legitimacy of the North Korean state itself.
In addition to this, Marcus Noland, an excellent economic researcher of North Korea, explained several years ago that the Byungjin Doctrine (the idea that NK can have nuclear weapons AND economic prosperity) is inherently contradictory.
How can North Korea attain economic prosperity and nuclear weapons simultaneously when...
A) So much of the economy is cannibalized and sacrificed to build and sustain them (countless North Koreans have been starved to make the nukes)?
and...
B) The nuclear weapons bring about international condemnation and sanctions (which further degrade the economy)?
Joshua Stanton, the lawyer who actually authored some of the international sanctions against NK, may have provided an answer a few years ago. He argued that the declaration of the "Byungjin Doctrine" communicated NK's commitment and intention to use nuclear blackmail as an official economic policy.
That NK intends to use its nuclear weapons to threaten and extort the outside world into paying them and propping up their economy; essentially armed robbery, but with nukes instead of a gun.
That's pretty much the only conceivable way North Korea can enrich itself with nukes, because anything short of that, the nukes only help to impoverish it further.
The troublesome triad: Russia, China and North Korea all border each other.
the biggest troublesome country in the world is USA, for one of this crazy country's objective is to defeat every single country that don't agree with it.
@@wonderlander fool. If they wanted that they would have done that in the 1950s or 1990s.
It's funny how these countries are just convenient trial scenario, strategic depth, meat-grinder and last ditch efforts more than they are friends.
the west is far more troublesome
@@mochalo4912 to the troublesome, yes, the west is inconvenient. The west is weak too, so basically do nothing.

They are able to build a nuclear weapons but never a nuclear power plant
Buying the good will of your people by economic development only works for a certain amount of time until poverty has mostly become a thing of the past. There is a bavarian proverb, "no matter how rich you are, you can still only eat one Schnitzel a time." - so the current policy of china might work for one or two generations - and we are already very late in the first generation - but some day people will say "hey, I am not getting any richter and the goverment keeps harrassing me. Maybe a change would be nice." - Sure, the goverment can supress this for some time while creating disent for which "making people richer" won't work. Lowering moral, lowering public opinion, lowering security and internal unity. More pressure will just fasten these problems. And in the end China would most likely go down the russian road: Corruption ruining a once promising country, incompent leaders getting into high position not for qualification but for loyality. After that, the end is nigh.

Fun fact: Kim jong un had western education since childhood. makes you think about what they teach at school.
It does not matter where one is educated. The system and type of society you are in, more often than not, takes precedence over how you will turn out. It's the same with China, they send thousands of students overseas. Is China acting any closer to the sensibilities likened to that of the developed world? A lot of people would say "No".
He killed his uncle for nothing. Lol
Got the chicks for free.
We never knows..
I wonder how cool of a guy you must be to be in Kim Jong un's entourage.
Or you're the biggest snitch in the country.
If they were smart they would’ve played ball a long time ago; establish a form of constitutional monarchy or at the very least a system like the UKs..
With "if", you could change the whole world.

I had been curious about this
He's hugely overweight and smokes continuously. I don't see him being around all that much longer. Worst case scenario? His evil sister seizes control.
I Still Not Get The point , why many people say if His sister more dangerous than Kim ? Because in Asian History , It's not yet have Women dictator .
Let's hope she will.
I think he will try again, but with a different strategy. The problem he have is his nuclear weapons and how it affect/hurt North Korea international, and how to deal with that.
The problem is the leaders of the West who believe in the denuclearization of the country.
Hilarious, they should totally get rid of nuclear weapons like Libya did, their country totally won't get bombed into oblivion.
I think Kim can maintain control until his death-if he or his opponents arrange for that death to take place in the very near future. Otherwise, it might or might not be possible.
Thanks, good update.
Is it me or is ol Kimmy boy getting wider and wider?
He actually lost a lot if weight recently. The speculation it happened when he was hospitalized for covid.
Funny how that works these days doesn't it? The elites of socialist dystopias get fatter while their people starve to death.
There was a line in the movie Spartacus about the worst dictators being skinny. They apparently never met the Kims of DPRK.

Just as a question out of left field. Would China ever try to annex or absorb North Korea Into China
No , China Need to secure their economy too . If china annex North korea , it would be boomerang for them and attack by west .
Just Similiar with When Vietnam Beatdown Khmer Rouge in 1979 .
More People Remember Vietnam Of Invaders Rather than Savior which is Beat Evil Dictator .
North Korea will retaliate but could in the end come to the south for help, if China try’s. (If China wants to achieve this they would have to get the leader before anything)
Looks like 2024 to hopefully see a unified Korea just need to straighten things out with China on a few things they consider an issue

Would be interesting to see a constitutional change that permits Kim Jong Un to be a limited constitutional monarch with a more open system for deciding actions in Parliament
Such a move couldn’t possibly be imposed from outside the country though
its not a monarchy

@@taliblond7597 I did read, your just very wrong. Why would there be a CONSTITUTIONAL CHANGE to make Kim Jong Un a Monarch when he is the Chairman of a socialist party?
Since when did all of the TH-cam presenters start speaking so fast? I guess they're in a hurry to get the 5 minutes of embedded sponsor ads at the end of the video.
Camp for you sir
well no the byungjin doctrine was founded by kim il sung in the 70s
he didn't recognise markets , it was in 2002 that they organized semi markets like how only married women can trade on a very small scale , and even that was not for the long run , like how they still have state run stores , and every supermarket is run by the state or cooperatives
they do have full farmers market every 10 days which existed since the founding of the country
VisualPolitik, the major spanish multicorporation in the world
i guess kim will get close to Russia now that both countries are under sanctions, they can exchange some favors. North Korea already recognised Donetsk and Lugansk and supports Russian intervention in Ukraine, Kim is not doing this for free.
Russia seems to be under sanctions all the time
At least North Korea’s dearest leader has the world’s most iconic hairstyle 🤣 and Fatty Kim still eats and drinks well despite regular famines in the country.
How long before his health goes bad?
"regular famines" they only had one famine. In the 90's.
@@nedifar-haunts-you then North Korea shouldn’t need to depend on international food aid. They rather keep spending disgusting amounts on military and political elite than feed their own people.
@@sg_hokkien_opera Sure. You think it's that easy, right? The famine is maybe over but the aftermaths still affect this country today. Not to mention that the country is heavily sanctioned, which makes the situation even worse.
There's several non-governmental organizations that work there, and who fed a lot of people working with the government. They also improved the situation for elderly people, etc..
Not to mention the aid they receive from China, which includes food.
They maybe spend a lot of money for the military which doesn't prevent them from feeding their own people. And they have no other choices but spending huge amounts for the military since North Korean army is bad when it's about tanks and air force. They need to have a advantage on South Korea and the United States, that's why they developed a nuclear program, ballistics missiles, and other asymmetrics materials. Without that, they're will not be able to have any advantage on the South or the US. So, the amounts aren't "disgustings", it's logical.
I would add that NK want to reach self-reliance, which means depending on no one. Aid is not the solution, they need their sanctions to be lifted without conditions, so they can stop being dependent from such aid.
that can whent a great state it also can whent a real desaster , what i dont think it when toghter with south korea soon or might never again .
Where’s ya bracelet?
Now, raise your hand if you think, in light of Iran, el trumpacabra would've lifted any sanctions had North Korea scrapped its missile program.
I doubt it! Both sides weren't serious! Both sides wanted the max result, all at once, instead of starting step by step.

She was convinced by another man from North Korea that she was going to be in a movie
Well some reform is better than no reform. Also, people need to come to terms with the fact that they will not give up nukes unless by force. Why is this a surprise?
And trying to use force would lead to disaster.
Ooh, only 15 seconds ago!
Now if only I was clever enough for a joke
Why don't we just lift the sanctions. We all know North Korea is never going to give up their nuclear weapons. Maybe if we let the modernize a little bit, then they'll be heavily dependent on imports.
See thats the thing. If they did that then why would they stop. You must understand for near 30 years the north use nukes and full scale war games to get things they need, the idea is to balance sanctions with getting NK to slow down or freeze production of WMD and nukes. If we lifted that block all they understand is all there talk of war and threats just opened there borders and got them cash...autocrats dont back Down once the steam rolling starts. Also there special eco zones as free as it gets and even then any company that settles is exposed to the regime and its laws.
His sister is the smart one of the two, watch her for anything else
... The truth is that it was suspected...... Strange way to start a sentence.
Just add it to the long list of failures that is NK.
It's a failure because the policy of the West is not realistic.
North Korea can do more for his people providing troop to Putin. It will invite close relation with Russia. And form their own alliance with Pakistan, India, China, Iran, Palestine, Kazakhstan, Venezuela, and Saudi
