How Kim is playing the World

In her new book “Becoming Kim” former CIA analyst Jung H. Pak lifts the curtain on Kim Jong-un, the enigmatic young dictator who had gone missing mysteriously for weeks – before he suddenly resurfaced in a fertilizer factory. She reveals the meticulously calculated grooming of the North Korean leader and highlights the two most important women in his shadow.

Once again, Kim Jong-un had the world on tenterhooks. The North Korea dictator had been missing since mid-April. Rumors were rife that he might be dead from a botched surgery. His father, notorious for his own gluttony, died of a hernia, as did the grandfather, Kim Il-Sung, the legendary, near mythical, founder of the impoverished peninsula.
