Kim Dae Jung Corea del Sur * 3 de diciembre de 1925, Mokpo, provincia de Cholla-Namdo (Cholla del Sur). Trayectoria azarosa como líder opositor Tres apuestas presidenciales fallidas La victoria electoral en 1998 El esperanzador reencuentro con Corea del Norte ... Sucesión por el aspirante del partido en el contexto de la escalada nuclear de Pyongyang 1. Trayectoria azarosa como líder opositor H ijo de un estibador portuario de extracción campesina y segundo de cuatro hermanos, empezó los estudios en un colegio en la isla de Haui, donde residía la familia, y en 1936 los continuó en un centro escolar en el continente. En 1943 se graduó en la Escuela Superior de Comercio de Mokpo y se contrató de administrativo en una naviera local. Hacia 1945, coincidiendo con la derrota de Japón en la Segunda Guerra Mundial y el final del régimen de anexión de Corea (en realidad, una ocupación colonial) iniciado en 1910, Kim lanzó su propio negocio de transportes marítimos y para 1948, cuando la partición del país en sendas repúblicas en el Norte y el Sur, dirigía dos compañías de buques mercantes. Previamente y con posterioridad a la independencia (15 de agosto de 1948) de la República de Corea, Kim frecuentó los círculos democráticos e izquierdistas que entraron en colisión con el régimen autoritario de derecha del presidente Syngman Rhee, sostenido por Estados Unidos. A comienzos de agosto de 1950, apenas a un mes de iniciar la invasión, con el apoyo soviético, de la República de Corea, las fuerzas de la República Democrática Popular de Corea, o Corea del Norte, capturaron Mokpo y Kim fue detenido por "reaccionarismo burgués" y encarcelado en la prisión local junto con otros empresarios. Cuando su ejecución se antojaba inminente, Kim consiguió escapar y unirse a la guardia costera, que permaneció leal al Gobierno de Seúl hasta la reconquista de la provincia de Cholla por las tropas de la ONU.

Yasser Arafat Kim Dae Jung - South Korea Year : 2000 Nobel Peace Prize Cause : For his work for democracy and human rights in South Korea and in East Asia in general, and for peace and reconciliation with North Korea in particular Biography Kim was born on Haui-do, a poor island in Muan Country in south-western Korea. His father, a farmer, moved to the local port of Mokp'o in 1936 to run a small inn. The young Kim successfully managed a firm shipping supplies during the Korean War, during which he also escaped North Korean imprisonment. He also published a small daily newspaper. Kim entered politics in 1954, in an unsuccessful bid for a seat in the National Assembly. In 1960 Kim was elected to the Assembly and during the democratic regime served as official government spokesman. He was reelected in the three subsequent elections of 1963, 1967, and 1971. Because he had risen to prominence spearheading the unsuccessful 1969 parliamentary effort to prevent a third term for President Park Chung Hee (Pak Chong-hui), he was chosen as the New Democratic Party's presidential candidate against President Park. Despite harassment and government election controls, Kim received 43.6 percent of the vote, shocking the Park government. Thereafter, government pressures against Kim mounted: he was nearly killed in a government- engineered "accident." In 1972 and 1973 Kim took his cause to the United States; on the way home, during a short stay in Japan, he was kidnapped by Seoul government agents and nearly killed: his rescue and release in Seoul was only obtained under US government pressure. The incident focused international attention on Kim, but he was soon tried, convicted, and imprisoned on obscure charges including "spreading rumors" during the 1967 and 1971 elections.

Front Page UK World Business ... Site Map Thursday, December 18, 1997 Published at 16:16 GMT Special Report Kim Dae Jung: A political profile This was Kim Dae Jung's fourth attempt to become President BBC Asia specialist Larry Jagan reports from Seoul on the policies and programme of Kim Dae Jung, leader of the National Congress for New Politics. Kim Dae Jung says he will extend democratic reform, stamp out corruption and curb the political power of the country's industrial conglomerates, known as the chaebols. He says he will start meaningful talks with North Korea's leader Kim Jong Il and help small businesses to develop as a means of regenerating the economy. The oldest candidate in the elections by far, the veteran former dissident is now in his seventies. Conscious of this Mr Kim's advisors went to great pains during the campaign to make him looker younger and more spritely. He has reportedly had his face massaged regularly and is heavily made up to look younger before television appearances. The fact that he comes from South's Korea's more backward Cholla region in the southwest of the country, near the city of Kwangju, was also seen by some as a major handicap.

Profile / Kim Dae-jung - For South Korean President Kim Dae Jung, the summit is a political triumph and the zenith of his career as a reconciler. Kim was branded a Communist for his vision of national reunification and democracy during his 1971 presidential campaign against dictator Park Chung Hee. The ex-dissident has survived what he calls four attempts on his life by previous military governments and endured 14 years of exile, house arrest, and imprisonment. Kim says he kept himself going with his Roman Catholic faith and a strong sense of justice.

UCLA Center for East Asian Studies East Asian Studies News File Korean President Kim Dae-jung Receives the 2000 Nobel Peace Prize October 13, 2000 Nobel Committee Office of the Korean President News Reports Earlier Profiles ... Bibliography Nobel Prize Committee's Announcement " In the course of South Korea's decades of authoritarian rule, despite repeated threats on his life and long periods in exile, Kim Dae Jung gradually emerged as his country's leading spokesman for democracy. His election in 1997 as the republic's president marked South Korea's definitive entry among the world's democracies. As president, Kim Dae Jung has sought to consolidate democratic government and to promote internal reconciliation within South Korea. "With great moral strength, Kim Dae Jung has stood out in East Asia as a leading defender of universal human rights against attempts to limit the relevance of those rights in Asia. His commitment in favour of democracy in Burma and against repression in East Timor has been considerable. "Through his "sunshine policy", Kim Dae Jung has attempted to overcome more than fifty years of war and hostility between North and South Korea. His visit to North Korea gave impetus to a process which has reduced tension between the two countries. There may now be hope that the cold war will also come to an end in Korea. Kim Dae Jung has worked for South Korea's reconciliation with other neighbouring countries, especially Japan."
