Career / Fashion And Style

In December 2011, his father passed away and Kim assumed supreme leadership of North Korea. After holding the power, he removed many senior officials that he had inherited from his father’s regime.

His uncle Jang Song-thaek played an important role during his father’s rule but he killed his own uncle brutally because he believed he was a traitor. Kim was elected to the Fourth Conference of the Workers Party of Korea on 27th March 2012.

His status was validated by April 2012, as he acquired several official titles, first secretary of the KWP, chairman of Central Military Commission and chairman of the NDC. Under his rule, North Korea continued his weapons-testing program.

In December 2012, the government launched a long-range rocket that put a satellite in orbit. The U.S government knew that these launches were meant to cover up work and testing on ballistic missile technology. Rather than focusing on the economy and development of the country, Kim focuses more on weapon testing.
