The Rangoon Bombing Terrorist, Kang Min-chol - HRNK

White, blood stained chrysanthemums.

On October 9, 1983, North Korean agents planted a bomb at the Martyrs’ Mausolem in Rangoon, Burma, attempting to assassinate the fifth president of South Korea, Chun Doo-hwan. Although Chun was unharmed due to an act of providence, fourteen South Korean presidential advisers, journalists, and security officials were killed, together with four Burmese nationals. One out of three North Korean assassins survived. This is the story of Kang Min-chol, the lone survivor of the 1983 North Korean terrorist hit squad.
