...could hardly blame her. Madeleine Albright was about to become the first American official to meet Kim Jong Il, a figure as mysterious as his country, which has been closed to the West for 55 years. Crazy rumors swirled about the man known as the Great Leader. He infused himself with the blood of virgins to stay young, claimed some ghoulish types; he kidnapped Western models for his harem, said others.
