Succession scenarios for North Korea
- We expect that Kim Jong-nam would be the successor because, first of all, he is the first son. Secondly, the second son has hormonal disorders and Kim Yong-nam is 80.
 * Dynastic Succession**

- The son would be in charge of the military and rule as the chairman of the National Defense Commission just as Kim Jong-il has done.
 * Military Rule**

- Jang would become the figurehead of a collective leadership drawn form the Korea Worker's Party. Yong-nam is too old to be in charge, Kim Jong-il's sons are not adequate for a figure-head who should be respected upon all people.
 * Collective Leadership**

- We hypothesized that they will be absorbed and influenced by South Korea. North Korea's economy would probably crumble in the end, and they would have to turn to South Korea eventually. If Kim Jong-il's son is in charge, he might have a open-minded perspective towards South Korea compared to his father. He received European education after all.
 * Absorption by South Korea**

Conclusion
- We thought that Kim Jong-il's first son would take over North Korea and would have a different viewpoint from his father. He would be open-minded due to the European education he received. This would most likely to cause his nationalism to crumble as well.
