Dear Comrade

Dear Comrade Leader, Episode 302

“I got a rough reception, but I know that there was no special mention about Korea… … Are there any changes that I am not aware of?”

“yes. The most notable changes are exclusivism and nationalism through military force, justification of expansionism, hard-line responses to terrorism and extremist religions, especially threats from other countries, that is, the United States. stretched… … It was also a statement that President Bo Shi Lai should stand at the forefront of such a defense policy and seize and exercise military power in every way… … .”

“… … That’s what I was concerned about, but it was expected enough… … .”

“What we need to pay attention to is the part that specifies the main enemy and allies. To be precise, the narrative about North Korea has changed from the previous one.”

A white paper is an official document that comprehensively describes the tasks, current status, goals, and solutions facing the government of a country or a government-affiliated department.

And if the department that publishes the white paper is the Ministry of National Defense, the ‘status’ refers to the situation of the enemy or virtual enemy’s military power, the ‘task’ refers to the policy to respond to that military force, and the ‘goal’ refers to the security situation to be finally achieved through such policies. will be responsive.

Although China and North Korea have had many words and problems so far, they basically defined each other as a blood alliance that originated in the 70-year relationship between China and North Korea. The fact that there was… … .

“After mentioning hypothetical based on the previous version, the part where they declare that they will contribute to the pursuit of peace and common values of mankind together with allies around the world, that is, the part where they say that they are more suitable than the United States for the role of the world police. But here, North Korea was omitted from the ‘Allies’ category.”

“… … Is that really?”

“Yes, I do mention it, but it is listed in the same category as ours in Korea, that is, in the ‘Friendly Country’ column. It can’t happen unless it’s a pretty big accident, President, it’s probably… … .”

At the foreign minister’s worried tone, the former president nodded heavily as if he agreed.

“That’s right. It seems that the membership of the Pacific intelligence community and information cooperation, which has been taking place for over a year, is slowly starting to leak to the Chinese side as well. Originally, it was a secret that wouldn’t last long, wasn’t it?”

“It is, but… … If there has been such a superficial change, it can be said that the Chinese side is already half-confident. Obviously, there must have been interrogations and conflicts under the water between North Korea and China in advance. … .”

At the meaningful words of the Minister of Foreign Affairs, saliva fell from everyone’s throat.

And it was the former president who finished the omitted backstory.

“… … hard denial… … It was. In other words, the Chinese side already thinks that General Secretary Kim is lying to them, no, even mocking them. It is unavoidable, but the repercussions must not be easy… … .”

The ex-president’s anxious murmurs were true.

In this ‘enemy or friend’ issue, and moreover, the NCND (neither confirm nor deny) strategy, which is common in relations between China and North Korea, is virtually no different from acknowledgment.

And China, and besides, President Boshi Lai, will never stand by the situation in which its allies, blood alliances, and neighboring countries, which were breakwaters, secretly join the intelligence alliance with the United States and flip their flippers over that fact.

“Whew… … To say that we are confident about the fact that North Korea has joined means that our Republic of Korea is more certain than that, so we will soon be questioned through diplomatic lines.”

“… … Korea is a traditional pro-American country, so even if it’s not an exception like North Korea… … It would be right to see it that way.”

“First of all, retaliation will start in the economic field. Reports of unfair treatment of Korean companies operating in China are already starting to enter the Shanghai consulate. Moreover, China is planning to unilaterally halt the renewal of the preferential trade agreement with North Korea. First, the special economic treatment that has been given to us as an ally is eliminated, and then… … .”

“We will begin to mobilize military force in earnest. However, since their relationship with them is farther away than before, they will not be able to suddenly shoot a missile at Pyongyang and get away with it, so the problem is the cause and the stage… … .”

Of course, in the international community, it is the right of a sovereign state that has diplomatic rights to conclude and maintain security agreements with other countries, but it is not enough to make a pod.

And when it comes to the spatial stage, the former president, who was familiar with the low-intensity conflict that has become one of the trends in modern warfare and the outbreak of proxy wars between countries while participating in the ROK-U.S. Combined Forces Command, had a place where he could guess the first place where the fire would occur. .

Not long after, this former president’s vision was exactly right.

* * *

– Captain, wake up! Beijing Central Party Puppet Autonomous Prefecture Standing Committee members self-destruct!

-The people of Yanbian Autonomous Prefecture want a fair and impartial people’s representative who is not corrupt and equal for both Han and Korean-Chinese people! The real estate crisis is caused by the Han Chinese, and the blood price goes to the Koreans?

-The captain, the chief of staff, the people’s representatives! Are you guys only Korean in body and Han Chinese? If you’re going to kill me, hit me right now!

It started with the detection of one corruption case.

Since the inauguration of President Bo Si Lai, it has not been a year or two that the corruption of party cadres (limited to those opposing President Bo and the Crown Prince) under the banner of severe corruption and corruption has been uncovered, followed by irony and punishment, but this time was exquisite. .

The 2008 real estate crisis and the resulting economic downturn have plunged Yanbian into a long-term recession five years later.

In Yanbian, where secondary industries such as manufacturing are weak due to their geographical location and tertiary industries such as service sectors are very sensitive to economic downturns accounting for 80% of employment, recession means that the rise in the unemployment rate is significantly different compared to other regions in China. meant to go

At least a few years ago, capital from neighboring countries, including the modern group, that is, North Korea and South Korea’s manufacturing capital, had supported Yanbian’s regional economy to some extent. The current situation was full of dissatisfaction due to the Han Chinese favoritism policy.

And in the midst of this, when it was revealed that the state-owned bank had unbiased the subsidy that the state-owned bank had loaned to revitalize the economy of Yanbian Autonomous Prefecture by the central party’s arbitration by the head of the Yanbian Korean-Chinese Autonomous Prefecture, only to companies represented by Han Chinese. However, the dissatisfaction of the Korean-Chinese in Yanbian, who had reached a dangerous level, finally exploded.

Rarely in China’s social climate, where protests and mass actions are often reluctant, a protest rally was held in front of the city hall in Yanji, and clumsy handouts were scattered in back alleys.

Autonomous state police did not know that they stayed up all night trying to suppress the protests and persuade or threaten people in the community not to participate in the protests.

If it had been this far, it would have been only sporadic rallies that took place in protest against common Chinese local government corruption and were crushed by organized sabotage by public security, but the problem was that this dissatisfaction was at its peak.

The following year, that is, the beginning of 2014, was the first year in the history of the Communist Party of China that direct elections were held in which the people participated, albeit formally, in the basic administrative units of the district (區), county (縣) and town (鄕).

– Our Communist Party’s new goal is to realize popular socialism and Chinese-style mass politics cultivated by the people themselves. So, ideologically, wouldn’t it make sense to have the people elect the head of a basic administrative group rather than the Central Party experimentally?

-Bo, Chairman Bo… … !! Bu, obviously, the president’s intentions are understandable, but let me remind you why the previous presidents and general secretary did not want to repeat the mistakes of Western democracies… … !! A candidate that the people will not listen to… … Oops! No, if a candidate who does not understand socialist ideology well is elected as the group leader… … .

– Gosh, don’t worry. Could it be that I didn’t even think of that? All measures are in place, so there is nothing to worry about.

Similar to the Hakchongryun incident in North Korea, in fact, the demand for democracy in China and direct participation in politics by the masses in China before North Korea (though it does not appear externally) has been secretly increasing since the days before President Bo Ji-rai.

In 2014, China was no longer a closed East Asian country, and the development of multimedia technology informed the lives of other countries and the reality of political participation in censored form, albeit in a censored form, focusing on the Chinese people, especially the young. The growing people’s demand for the right to vote was decided by the Central Party of China that it could no longer be ignored.

Naturally, the Central Party and President Bo Si-rai had no intention of granting practical state management rights to people who did not understand ‘Chinese-style socialist ideology and ideals that only senior party cadres with an adequate level of education can understand’.

So, what I came up with was that the people elected people’s representatives with their own hands from the local governments at the districts, prefectures, and villages that correspond to myeons, myeons, and ri in Korea. It was an indirect election method, and of course a trick was prepared here as well.

-Huh, look at this, the Chinese expatriates say there’s an election in China? Is the wind of democracy finally blowing in the townspeople? I don’t know if I’m going to get ‘Tiananmen’ after leaving the polling place without knowing what it is.

-Ugh, you boring friend. How could the Communist establishment allow for direct elections in a genuinely democratic state like the United States or Korea? It’s all show!

-show? why?

-There is no election campaign, and it is forbidden to hang posters or banners that inform the candidate’s promises or personal details… … The most decisive thing is that there are two types of candidacy, independent candidates, who must be recommended by the local people, and party candidates, who can only go out when they are recommended by the local party.

-… … By the way?

– But think about it! It’s the media that will promote the promises and the date and place of the voting itself, and everything is the Communist Party. How is it possible for an independent candidate to get the votes and win the election on his own with the support of the people? When I heard the stories of the locals, the independent candidates running for office like this are monitored by the public security authorities, and anyone who wants to offend them puts pressure on them to resign. What kind of election is this, a Chinese gymnasium election.

In fact, as predicted by the foreign countries, the townspeople and field leaders elected by local administrative unit elections little by little were literally swarming with useless candidates, rather than being ‘local leaders elected by Chinese-style democratic elections that were supported not only by the party but also by the people’ of the Communist Party. It was used as a tool to strengthen the regional dominance of

However, in any election, the dark horse was bound to pop out.

As mentioned above, cases in Yanbian where pro-Chinese people’s representative candidates supported by the party, based on the antipathy of the pro-North Korean Korean-Chinese people in Yanbian Autonomous Prefecture against the Central Party, the economic downturn, and the remnants of a biased trial, are rather struggling in Yanbian. started pouring out.

And among them, there was one person who was engaged in underground political activities in South Korea long ago, and after defecting to North Korea, after experiencing a change of heart, naturalized again to China, and is currently engaged in intense nationalist activities in Yanbian.

The name of the operative who was once a leading executive of the ‘Democratic National Revolutionary Party’, an NL-based underground party that followed the Juche ideology in Korea, and who achieved the dream North Korea escaped in the mid-to-late 1990s was ‘Lee Seop-gi’.
