In-depth: John Delury 인뎁스: John Delury

And for more on the current state of inter-Korean affairs,... we now connect to Professor John Delury from Yonsei University. Professor, let′s start with what we have seen of late. We are witnessing a relatively quick shift from provocations to peace offerings from Pyongyang, including a number of high-level talks in recent weeks. What can we make of the latest developments? During closed-door talks between high-level military officials on Wednesday, the sinking of the South Korean warship Cheonan in 2010 is believed to have been discussed. Do you think Pyongyang is ready to take responsibility? Rumors ran rampant during Kim Jong-un′s absence. Amid all the speculation and rumors about his health and a possible coup, is there anything we can point to as being probable or even possible? What effect do you think Kim′s absence and the rumors surrounding it will have on his grip on power? Alright, thank you professor for your time.
