Introduction
Inside North Korea’s Dynasty is the ultimate story of a family, its power, and the relationship among a father, son and grandson.

Outline
“Nuclear Family” begins as the Cold War ends – and North Korea has lost Soviet patronage, and with it, the security it guarantees and the economic support that has sustained the country for nearly half a century. As Kim Jong Il takes complete control of the country, he also starts a nuclear weapons program. With the country’s economy failing, his government makes counterfeit $100 bills, and sets up factories making crystal meth and other narcotics. He also employs a private sushi chef, and hosts lavish banquets and parties while the country continues to struggle economically – all while at the same time negotiating with the United States.
