Baik Bong (Шаблон:Korean) is a North Korean author known for writing the official biography of Kim Il Sung.
Biography of Kim Il-sung
The first comprehensive biography of Kim Il Sung was published in Korean in North Korea in 1968. It was called Minjogŭi t'aeyang Kim Il-sŏng changgun (Sun of the People, General Kim Il-sung). Although it was most likely written by a collective, it appeared under the name of Baik Bong.Шаблон:Sfn Before that, hagiography of Kim Il Sung had been identified with Han Sorya, but after he was purged, hagiography conventionally no longer appeared under the name of any one author.Шаблон:Sfn Baik's biography was published by the party in two volumes. It covered Kim Il Sung's life up to the end of 1967.[1] That biography was translated into English in three volumes under the title Kim Il Sung Biography and was published by a Japanese publishing house.[2] The first volume is titled From Birth to Triumphant Return to Homeland, the second volume From Building Democratic Korea to Chullima Flight, and the third volume From Independent National Economy to 10-Point Political Programme.[3] It has since become "the standard DPRK biography" of Kim Il Sung.[4] In 1970, the three volumes were published in French by the Jeune Afrique Edition publishing house in Paris.[5]
A new version was Baik's biography was published in August 1972 as Ilyu haebang ŭi kusŏng Kim Il-sŏng wŏnsu (Marshal Kim Il-sung, Liberator of Mankind), prompted by the fact that the nascent Juche ideology had now been attributed to Kim Il Sung from his youth, which had to be written into the story.Шаблон:Sfn During the 1970s, Pyongyang intensified its massive campaign to publish the works and feats of Kim Il Sung in several languages in order to promote its Juche ideology throughout the world (and in the Third World in particular).[3]
Factual accuracy
Baik devoted much of his work in the official biography to recount Kim Il Sung's struggle against the Japanese occupiers. The factual accuracy of many such anti-Japanese tales has been questioned.[6]Шаблон:Sfn Baik also omits any mention of Kim Il Sung's association with the Northeastern People's Revolutionary Army.Шаблон:Sfn It has also been suggested that "Baik Bong" is a pseudonym and that the writer lives in Japan.Шаблон:Sfn
