In the European, Japanese and American press mentioned such unacceptable measures of impact, as public executions, forcing for abortions, the creation of labor concentration camps, the abduction of foreign citizens. But since the DPRK was and remains a fully closed country, and the press and television of North Korea are under full supervision of the government, it is impossible to confirm or refute such accusations. Also in the country, as in the predecessor Kim Ire Seine, and the successor to Kim Chen Ira acted propaganda the personality of the ruler. Kim Cheng IR created a person's cult around himself, probably even exceeded a similar cult around Joseph Stalin.

But that's not all. North Koreans are confident that the great leader is an unsurpassed architect who invented the concept of a skyscraper and created the plan "Buchery Tower" in Pyongyang; Amazing culinary coil who prepared the world's first hamburger; World golf game record holder; The most outstanding expert in the field of Internet and mobile communications. However, since the head of North Korea was very long to be the only person in the country who had the right to use the mobile phone and the worldwide network, the last statement was actually true.
Personal life
If his father Kim Il Siena had two wives, then Kim Cheng Ir married four times. According to data that is considered reliable, the great leader left three sons and daughter, but according to unofficial information, the North Korean leader became a father 17 times, and nine children were born out of marriage.

The first wife Kim Jong Ira, Son Hhe Rome, was famous in the country actresant. In 1971, she gave birth to his wife Kim Chon Nama. Like most of his relatives, the boy studied in Switzerland.

The second wife of the ruler was Kim Yong Suk, the daughter of a high-ranking military, who was chosen for his son personally by Kim Il Saint. According to some sources, she was the only official wife of the ruler, and the rest of the only civil spouses. Perhaps this is explained by the fact that it is often called the first wife Kim Chen Ira, although it is impossible from a chronological point of view. The husband openly showed that he had no feelings for a woman. Nevertheless, Kim Yong Suk gave birth to his daughter Kim Sol Son, who later becomes the personal secretary of his father and lead the propaganda and party literature.

Like the dream of He Rome, the third woman in the life of the great leader was an actress. Her name was Ko Yong, and she was not only shot in the cinema, but also sang and danced on stage. Since she became the mother of two sons Kim Chon Chown and Kim Jong Yana, the youngest of which will be subsequently the successor of the father, then Ko Yong Hee also became a cult figure in North Korea. But the cult of her personality could not have a lot of weight due to the origin of a woman - Grandfather Kohi collaborated with the Japanese army at one time. Therefore, in the press, her name was hidden by the title, calling the "Great Mother".

The fourth wife Kim Chen Ira, who was younger than 20 years old, became a politician Kim Ok.

Now the last wife Kim Jong Ira is on the treatment of joints, and in others - under house arrest.
Death
As in the case of the biography of Kim Jong Ira, his death also has two possible versions. It is known that the great supervisor was very sick. He was diagnosed with diabetes, as well as a number of cardiovascular diseases.

In any case, the head of the DPRK about his health care for little. He climbed a lot to the last days, and only the strongest cigars and cigarettes, and also regularly used brandy.
Ultimately, the diseases took their own and Kim Jong Il died on the morning of December 17, 2011, and the people reported on his death only two days later. Diffuses in the versions of death concern the place of his death. According to official data, Kim Cheng IR, despite the difficult state, continued to work and performed an inspection trip around the country on a personal armored speaker, in which he met the last day of life. But other informants argue that he has not left his house lately in Pyongyang and died exactly there. The official cause of death Kim Jong Ira is considered to be a heart attack - the same diagnosis as his father.
