On 17th
of December 2011, North Korea’s
dictator passed away in a train. His death was due to a hearth attack, he was
sixty nine when he had a heart attack. The North Korean government tried hard
to keep his death as a secret, but the secret spilled out on 19th. This was due
to the announcement from the Working Party, which stated the Kim Jong- un, Kim
Jong Il’s son, will replace his father as the country’s leader. Though some
might think that the death would bring positive effect, it actually had more
negative effects. This could be seen through the reaction of the other
countries went on a crisis situation such as United State, who
called for closely monitoring. South Korea was no exception to this action,
South Korea went on a South Korea- U.S Combined Forced Command; ensuring their
alliance with United State incase of an emergence. South Korea also increased monitoring efforts
along the border.
As a
citizen of South Korea, I was
very much effected by Kim Jong Il’s death. When the new of his death came out,
it spread like a forest fire. It quickly became what Koreans call ‘hot issue key word.’ Some Korean thought a war might just
break out and some companies were even shut down for the day. People were
buying tons of Korean noodle just incase the war broke out and the stock market
of South Korea was falling. In the mist of this
situation, I thought how much impact Kim Jong Il had on the world. Though some
said he has no power, for he is a ruler of one of the poorest countries in the
world, when he passed away world became a mess for a while. At least South
Korea did, for
after all they called in most of the ambassadors back to Korea for emergence meeting and enforced
the border line. I guess in world there are many hypocrites and as usual I am
no exception, as I said what most people said and was scared of what most
people were scared of.
