|aFor the first time, using original sources and his own reporting going back to 1972 when he met Kim Dae Jung at his home in Seoul, Donald Kirk explores the great untold story of modern Korean history. This bookrecounts the rise of Kim Dae Jung from an oppressed region of Korea, beginning withhis schooldays, his activities in the Korean War and his entry into politics. The book addresses his populist politics, his ascent to the national stage and his encounters first with the dictators who tried to take his life and then had him tried and sentenced to death for the Kwangju revolt. The book outlines DJ's life in exile in the United States, his great return to Korea and his entry into presidential politics climaxed by his election in 1997 at the height of economic crisis. Focusing on DJ's Sunshine policy, his summit with North Korea's KimJong Il and his drive for the Nobel, the booktells the story of payments that brought about the summit and the prize as well as the corruption that ensnared his sons and top aides.
