  Just an FYI, Kim Jong-il isn’t the President of North Korea but the, ‘Chairman of the National Defense Commission.’ Kim’s father and former leader of the DPRK, Kim Il-sung, used the title of ‘President,’ and it was decided after he died that he would keep that title ‘eternally,’ and that new leadership would be called… something else.

  Thanks! Corrected to “leader.” Hadn’t realized they had retired “President.”
