According to BBC News
the people who surround Kim Jong Un and take notes are there wherever the
supreme leader goes and they write down everything he does, even the jokes are
recorded. The reason for all this is to portray the leader as all powerful and all
knowing, he can often be seen giving advice on a wide array of tasks including
giving a pilot a pep talk, this portrayal of power, knowledge and wisdom make
the population see him as a great leader, although many would disagree.

Tensions Rise
The North Korean Supreme leader Kim Jong Un had

with the USA as well as possible strategies for defeating its rival. According to
the US nuclear intelligence, there has been increased activity in the Punggye-ri, the site of the North's three
previous nuclear tests in 2006, 2009 and 2013, and president Obama warns that further
nuclear and atomic tests will have higher sanctions.

Powerful nation
What hurts the most of this country is that when you walk in, you see that almost nothing change for the past decades. It still looks like this country is in a constant war. It's been a while since the war is over but peace has never made is way through yet. Military forces are so present, creating a big amount of fear in the country. All the tentatives by the international authorities or political leaders are leading to nothing but giving Pyongyang more willingness to develop the nuclear forces. They recently have been named the most powerful city because of the nuclear. This is so sad that this communist country is just a waste of knowledge for its population.
Understanding the nuclear program of North Korea
What do we know yet?
In violation with the UN security council which sanctioned the nuclear program of North Korea, they launched 2 missiles. Over the last month, NK also practiced many smaller nuclear tests. They are suspected of doing that to protest over the international pressure against nuclear.
How did they end up with so much nuclear?
Back in 1975, Pyongyang developed its own missiles , using technologies to increase their distance and their strength. Their goal settled , they want to reach further target such as Japan. Since the end of 1980, the objective is to get intercontinental missiles.

Obama peacekeeper
As second destination of his Asian tour, out of four, Obama went in Seoul, the South Korean capital. During a speech in Seoul, the american president declared that the bound of liberties were at the boarders of the very militarized frontiers between the South and the North. He also mentioned that the nuclear threats of North against the South would never help nothing but keeping them as enemies. A shocking new also surfaced when Obama landed, the North claimed that the country detained an American civilian because he broke the formalities to enter the country.
Obama and Park
The tensions between North and South Korea are just getting more ridiculous. The North, specifically Pyongyang, is making hideous comments about the president of the South,Park Geun-hye. Usually known for its indecent remarks, North Koreans are being more and more personal in their comments toward the political authorities. They briefly describe her as being idiot, lunatic and a cold blood animal.The tensions arose because of the visit of Obama, claiming that the North would be seriously sanctioned if it detonated a fourth nuclear test. Satellite images shown the increase in nuclear activities at the test sites. ''Pyongyang was angered by the team's report, which said it was committing grave and systematic human rights abuseson a scale unparalleled in the modern world.'

More Missile Testing
South Korea is testing/launching a new 2200 pound
warhead missile capable of destroying most of North Korea; this was in reaction
to North Korea firing 30 short range missiles on March 22, the south really wants to be ready for anything. Although North Korea
has had economic issues such as the food shortage it somehow always has the
budget for military offensive weapons and its missile program is becoming
increasingly sophisticated, this is a cause for concern when we consider that
North Korea has been caught several times trying to invade South Korean space
with the surveillance drone and the fishing boat.
