[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Ji-eun] North Korea published a biography of Kim Jong-un, General Secretary of the Party, introducing his creed of "nuclear for nuclear" and highlighting major achievements such as the Singapore Summit and inter-Korean talks.

On the 28th, the external propaganda media outlet 'Uri Minjokkkiri' released a book titled "Great Man and the Era of a Strong Nation" on its homepage containing these contents.

Published by Pyongyang Publishing House on December 30 last year, this book covers the achievements during Kim Jong-un's 10 years in power and is effectively a "Kim Jong-un biography."

The book presents Kim Jong-un's strengthening of nuclear forces as a major achievement. Under the subtitle "Nuclear for Nuclear," it detailed the 2016 hydrogen bomb test and the 2017 hydrogen bomb test for intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) mounting, and listed the launch tests of ICBMs 'Hwasong-14' and 'Hwasong-15.'

It also introduced Kim's creed, stating, "Only power can work against hostile forces, and nuclear deterrence is the only way to counter the enemy's nuclear weapons," and "With powerful nuclear forces, we must end the history of the United States' unilateral nuclear threats."

As for foreign relations achievements, it introduced the Singapore Summit and the Panmunjom meeting. However, the 'no deal' Hanoi North Korea-US summit was not covered. Regarding inter-Korean relations, it addressed the dispatch of the delegation to the Pyeongchang Winter Olympics and the Panmunjom inter-Korean summit. There was no mention of President Moon Jae-in.

The book also urged the suspension of South Korea-US joint military exercises, stating, "Ending the ongoing military tension is the most urgent issue for improving inter-Korean relations and for peace and security on the Korean Peninsula."
