Kim Il Sung

Kim Il Sung's reputation as a tough warrior lands him the role of leader in North Korea's Soviet-led puppet government. His rapid rise sets off alarm bells in anti-communist countries around the world. But it is the Korean Civil War that fuels Kim's reign of terror. Both sides plan to eliminate the other. But after the dictator's failed assassination attempt on the South Korean head of state, South Korean intelligence plans a movie-worthy assassination. A plot that will remain a closely guarded secret for almost two decades. (Text: History)
