Korea's administration is based upon the idea of Juche, a subject based philosophy that creates a fervor around Kim il Sung and related parties rather than a deity or political system(14). Kim il Sung is known as the Great Leader because he has numerous titles; he was Prime Minister and then President of North Korea, and Chairman of the Korean Workers Party. Children can quote stories from Kim il Sung's childhood, much like Christians recite stories from the Bible.
_______"One officially propagated 'legend' about Kim il Sung's days as an anti-Japanese guerilla
_______ fighter in the 1930s and '40s described him as a mighty general astride a white horse,
_______ 'carrying an enormous sword, cutting a big tree down as if slicing a soft bean curd.' Another
_______ had him walking on water: 'Great Leader Comrade Kim il Sung turned pine cones into bullets
_______ and grains of sand into rice, and crossed a large river riding on fallen leaves.'" -excerpt from
_______ Bradley K. Martin's book "Under the Loving Care of the Fatherly Leader: North Korea and
_______ the Kim Dynasty" (10)

Hmm. Were you trying to figure out the most sensible answer, instead of picking the one that was most ridiculous and couldn't possibly be true?
