I really cannot take Kim Dae-Jung or his party or his successors seriously. They rose to power with the call for honoring human rights, which is noble. However, when it comes to the human rights abuses in NK, they are silent.
Very very weird to me.
- curiously 12y agoI think that it's just sheer naivety that you can get along with a crazed failed state based on ethnic unity, the idea of being the same race or 민족. Another reason I think is Kim Dae Jung had a radically different vision of what Korea could be, anti-American, pro-socialist and one that is based on nazi like nationalistic views based on the purity and superiority of the Korean people.
