Kim has been able to resist such demands partly because North Korea is dynastic, with a cult of personality that is freakishly strong; there are no fewer than 30,000 statues and monuments to the Kim family throughout the country. Kim has three sons from which to choose a successor, and it's now become something of a parlor game among analysts to select the front runner. At the moment, that seems to be Kim's youngest son Kim Jong Un, 26, who bears a striking resemblance to his father and is said...
