Kim Jong Eun is the current leader of North Korea, and the son of Kim Jong Il. He was raised in luxury, and studied in Switzerland. In spite of his apparent lack of qualifications to run a country, he ascended to lead Korea after his father died in 2011. Kim’s reign has thus far been characterized by a mixture of relatively progressive social and economic reforms, coupled with an aggressive nuclear policy and a cult of personality similar to the one surrounding his father.
