K., U.S., & China Current leader of North Korea, Kim Jong-un, who is the youngest son of the previous leader of North Korea, Kim Jong-il took over the role as President in April, 2012 after his fathers sudden death due to a heart attack. Ever since Kim Jong-un became president of North Korea, political tensions had only ratchet up between North Korea, South Korea, United States, and China. The tension is still rising and does not seem to decrease. Slide 6 Page 6 Causes of the rising political tensions Ever since Kim Jong-un, who is the youngest son of Kim Jong-il, the previous North Korea leader, took over the throne as the president of North Korea. Political tensions had only ratchet up between North Korea and its other allied countries. And they are South Korea. United Sates, and China. The people of North Korae did not have much faith ad trust in this young leader. And this new leaders' actions had proved their guesses and panics to be right. The main cause of the rising tension is his threaten of proceeding nuclear missile tests in these nations. The once friendly relations between these nations are now gone. They are putting on a show of "coldwar". The tension is still rising and does not seem to decrease. Slide 7 Page 7 He'll just be another copy of his father, Kim Jong-il. Relations between North Korea and its other once friendly nations have changed so virtually and suddenly only 1 year after the previous leader of North Korea, Kim Jong-ils sudden death. After Kim Jong-un take over the throne, most of the people in North Korea does not have faith and trust in such a young leader. Even I can't see the future in this less advanced country. A few months after he took the jobpassed on by his father, his actions had proved to the people that they were right about their worries and panics. The new president of North Korea cannot take the role as a leader seriously. Does he think that threatens are as easy to say as jokes? What is with all of his on and off nuclear missile tests threatening? I guess this new appointed president will be just another copy of his father, Kim Jong-il. Slide 8 Page 8 Introduction For decades, North Korea has been one of the worlds most secretive societies. It is currently the last Stalinist State on Earth. What I mean by Stalinist State is that North Korea is a traditional country and is ruled by the theory of communism. North Korea is a country filled with historical colors and fun histories. After experiencing years of baptism, North Korea has finally revealed its mysterious mask for the whole world to see its real identity. Are you ready for the exciting facts that are waiting for you in the following paragraph? Well, I am. So, get ready, and I will fill your mind with exciting facts and information relating to North Korea. And Here we go! Slide 9 Page 9 Body Paragraph # 1 The Democratic Peoples Republic of Korea is a Stalinist country locating in Eastern Asia, in the northern half of the Korean Peninsula. The country is commonly called North Korea for short. Before the war between Korea and Japan, the Korean Peninsula was governed by the Korean empire from the late 19th century to the early 20th century. In 1910, the imperial country, Japan annexed the Korean Peninsula as part of its empire after their victory in the Sino-Japanese War. Though, the Japanese did not gain the control over Korea for long. As soon as WWII ended in 1984, Japan surrendered to Korea. After the surrender of Japan, the country started to emerge in 1984. The Korean Peninsula was split into two sections and formed two independent countries which are then named North Korea and South Korea according to its geographic textures. Between the two once-together countries, there is a boundary called the Korean Demilitarized Zone. Slide 10 Page 10 Body Paragraph # 2 North Korea has swung between confrontation and conciliation with its close by neighbor, South Korea. Current leader of North Korea, Kim Jong-un, the youngest son of the previous leader of N.K., Kim Jong-il took over the role as President in April, 2012 after his fathers sudden death due to a heart attack. The Korean media lauded Kim Jong-un sarcastically, the newly appointed leader of North Korea, as a great person born of heaven and Great Successor. Signaling a continuation of the personality cult of the Kim family into a third generation. Ever since Kim Jonh-un became president of North Korea, political tensions had only ratcheted between North Korea and South Korea. The tension is still rising and does not seem to decrease. Not so long after the President Election in South Korea, Kim Jong-un threatened that he will be putting a nuclear bomb test into action and it will be taking place in South Korea. His threaten was intended to frighten the new elected female president of South Korea. But the new leader of South Korea showed no frights at all. Instead, she claimed for Kim Jong-un to go ahead with the nuclear bomb test if he has the strength. Kim Jong-un got an unexpected respond from the new leader of South Korea and decided to put a stop to the nuclear test temporarily. Sharing a piece of land with South Korea which they have strong hostilities about isnt an easy thing to do for North Korea. That is what the Korean Demilitarized Zone is all about. Both countries sent soldiers to the zone on their side, and protect their own country from any sudden attacks. Slide 11 Page 11 Body Paragraph # 3 According to what the news programs reported recently, North Korea's nuclear ambitions have exacerbated its rigidly maintained isolation from the rest of the world. After Kim Jong-un took position of the leader of North Korea, the young and arrogant leader had claimed to proceed China with a ballistic missile test. Once the surprising news flew to China, the government of China immediately sent the Chinese Vice Minister of foreign affairs to North Korea to start a peace talk. Although the Vice Minister of foreign affairs warned Kim Jong-un sternly not to proceed a ballistic missile test, or else China will suspend all the business and trading affairs in relation with North Korea. But the arrogant leader of North Korea went ahead anyway. This action of him resulted a scar China and North Koreas once friendly relation. Just recently, the leader of North Korea once again threatened to nuke the Americas mainland, Washington D.C. The United States is now in preparation for the nuclear missile test. Just in case if the threaten came true. The world already had enough of North Koreas on and off nuclear threatens, and is discussing this issue to come up with an idea to put this talk to a stop. Slide 12 Page 12 Conclusion Relations between North Korea and its other once friendly nations have changed so virtually and suddenly only 1 year after the previous leader of North Korea, Kim Jong-ils sudden death. After Kim Jong-un take over the throne, most of the people in North Korea does not have faith and trust in such a young leader. A few months after he took the job after his father, his actions had proved to the people that they were right about their worries and panics. The new president of North Korea cannot take the role as a leader seriously. Does he think that threatens are as easy to say as jokes? What is with all of his on and off nuclear missile tests threatening? I guess this new appointed president will be just another copy of his father, Kim Jong-il. Slide 13 Thanks for watching~!! >3
