In 2017, a man carrying a diplomatic passport was murdered in a Kuala Lumpur airport terminal by two women who believed they were playing a prank. The victim was Kim Jong-nam, the eldest son of North Korea's founding dynasty—and a man who had spent much of his life in exile after falling out of favor with his half-brother, Kim Jong-un. This episode traces the remarkable life of the man who might have led North Korea: his birth in 1971 to Kim Jong-il and the actress Song Hye-rim, his early grooming as a successor, his public humiliation in Tokyo in 2001 when he was caught trying to enter Japan on a fake passport to visit Disneyland, and his years of quiet exile in Macau and Singapore. We explore the VX nerve agent attack at Kuala Lumpur International Airport, the international manhunt for the assassins, and Malaysia's tense standoff with Pyongyang over the body. We also examine North Korea's long history of state-sponsored assassination, from the 1983 Rangoon bombing to the 2017 murder itself—and the unresolved questions about the succession drama that led a half-brother to order the death of the first son. #KimJongnam #KimJongun #KimJongil #VXNerveAgent #KualaLumpur #NorthKorea #Assassination #Exile #SongHyerim #DisneylandTokyo #RangoonBombing #Macau #Succession #DPRK #EastAsia #History #FexingoHistory #Podcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
