Summary
Details

Kim Jong Un: The Hidden Revolution is a bold and revelatory portrait of one of the world's most misunderstood leaders. Moving beyond caricature and propaganda, this book traces the deep roots of North Korea's identity - from its colonial trauma to the rise of a modern state built on endurance, discipline, and absolute sovereignty.

Through a fusion of history, political psychology, and geopolitical analysis, it uncovers how Kim Jong Un transformed an isolated, impoverished nation into a nuclear power that commands global attention. Far from the Western myth of the ""mad dictator,"" Kim emerges as a rational strategist: a ruler who seeks not conquest, but survival through strength, unity, and calculated modernization.

At once historical and philosophical, this book redefines the North Korean narrative - revealing a country that has not merely resisted the modern world, but reengineered it in its own image.
