Born February 16,1941,though official accounts place birth a year later.Some mystery surrounds when and where Kim Jong Il was born.Official North Korean biographies state that his birth occurred on February 16,1942,in a secret camp on Mount Paekdu along the Chinese border,in Samjiyon County,Ryanggang Province,in the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (North Korea).Other reports indicate he was born a year later in Vyatskoye in the former Soviet Union.
During World War II,his father commanded the 1st Battalion of the Soviet 88th Brigade,composed of Chinese and Korean exiles battling the Japanese Army.Kim Jong Il's mother was Kim Jong Suk,his father's first wife.Official accounts indicate that Kim Jong Il comes from a family of nationalists who actively resisted imperialism from the Japanese in the early 20th century.
His official government biography claims Kim Jong Il completed his general education between September 1950 and August 1960 in Pyongyang,the current capital city of North Korea.But scholars point out that the first few years of this period were during the Korean War and contend his early education took place in the People's Republic of China,where it was safer to live.Official accounts claim that throughout his schooling,Kim was involved in politics.While attending the Namsan Higher Middle School in Pyongyang,he was active in the Children's Union—a youth organization that promotes the concept of Juche,or the spirit of self-reliance—and the Democratic Youth League (DYL),taking part in the study of Marxist political theory.During his youth,Kim Jong Il showed an interest in a wide range of subjects including agriculture,music,and mechanics.In high school,he took classes in automotive repair and participated in trips to farms and factories.Official accounts of his early schooling also point out his leadership capabilities:as vice chairman of his school's DYL branch,he encouraged younger classmates to pursue greater ideological education and organized academic competitions and seminars as well as field trips.
Kim Jong Il graduated from Namsan Higher Middle School in 1960 and enrolled the same year in Kim Il Sung University.He majored in Marxist political economy and minored in philosophy and military science.While at the university,Kim trained as an apprentice in a textile machine factory and took classes in building TV broadcast equipment.During this time,he also accompanied his father on tours of field guidance in several of North Korea's provinces.
Kim Jong Il joined the Workers' Party,the official ruling party of North Korea,in July 1961.Most political experts believe the party follows the traditions of Stalinist politics even though North Korea began distancing itself from Soviet domination in 1956.The Workers' Party claims to have its own ideology,steeped in the philosophy of Juche.However,in the late 1960s,the party instituted a policy of "burning loyalty" to the "Great Leader" (Kim Il Sung).This practice of personality cult is reminiscent of Stalinist Russia but was taken to new heights with Kim Il Sung and would continue with Kim Jong Il.
