Sample Book Insights:
#1 Wonsan is a paradise in North Korea. It is where the country's elite spend their summers. It is also where Kim Jong Un spent his childhood summers.
#2 While the North Korean people were starving and suffering from floods in the 1980s, the Kim regime was shipping relief aid to South Korea from Wonsan. In the 1990s, while North Korean children were eating seeds for nourishment, Kim Jong Un was enjoying sushi and watching action movies.
#3 Wonsan was an extremely important place for Kim Jong Un. It was there that he built a huge amusement park, as well as missile launching sites. He watched as his munitions chiefs used new 300mm guns to turn an island just offshore to dust.
#4 The Kim family's claim on the leadership of North Korea has its origins in the 1930s, when Kim Il Sung was making a name for himself as an anti-Japanese guerilla fighter. In 1942, when Korea was liberated from Japan, the Soviet Union and the United States decided to divide the peninsula between them.
