Here we describe Kim Il-sung’s second wife, the two sons of Kim Sung-ae.
They are Kim Pyong-il and Kim Yong-il.
Kim Jong Il kicked off his two half-brothers from the power race to succeed.
Kang Myeong-doi, a defector (former North Korean government official and exile rather than a refugee), said of Pyong-il’s personality as follows.
There is an episode indicating that Pyong-il is “smart and warlike”.
Kim Pyong-il’s life gradually disturbed as his position increased. He and his confidant Kim Changhe and others gathered at Kim Byung-sya’s home in the Great Wall area and drank alcohol. In addition to calling out the members of the escort ensemble ensemble’s ensemble to spread the turmoil, he also scattered watches engraved with the name of Kim Il Sung. Sometimes, they shout “Long live the Kim Pyong-il”.
In North Korea, where Kim Il Sung’s only system of thought has been established, it was an action that could not be imagined. (Ibid.)
The “single system of thought” is the only principle in North Korea and is the law. Only Kim Il Sung is worshiped in this country, and using “Long live” for other persons is considered a serious treason against the “single system of thought.”
Kim Jong Il did not overlook Pyong-il’s movement. He immediately reported to Kim Il Sung.
Kim Jong Il reported this to Kim Il Sung as soon as detailed data on Kim Pyong-il was completed. Kim Il Sung read this and was furious. In particular, they were angry at the stage where they hosted a pink party with the women of the escort bureau ensemble ensemble and spread the “Kin Il Sung Clock”, and also chanted “Long live the Kim Pyong-il”. It came out in my heart.
“Get fired instantly!”
Kim Il Sung’s anger order has been issued. Kim Pyong-il was removed from school on that day and discharged. That is not all. The escort command officers to whom Kanehira belonged were all relegated to rural areas.
At the same time, Kim Jong Il undertook a total reshuffle of personnel at the Escort Command. An officer who shook a handshake with Kim Pyong-il was relentlessly stripped of his military uniform. The escort headquarters ensemble was also dismantled.
Kim Pyong-il, who can no longer stay in North Korea, fled to East Germany to end as a student. From then on, to this day, Kim Pyong-il has been traveling abroad, including in Hungary, Bulgaria, and Finland. (Ibid.)
When Heiichi drops out of the power race, his mother’s love will disappear from the front stage.
The ex-pleasure group Shin Young-hee testifies about this.
They were alienated and alert, and even those close to them were treated as “branches” and suffered disadvantages. But in terms of enjoyment of power and wealth, they were different from the mainstream, but they were still royal families. (Shin Young-hee, “I was the dancer of Kim Jong-il,”)
