About this listen
What if the world’s most secretive regime wasn’t just a dictatorship—but a movie set? Welcome to The Kingdom of Smoke, where every citizen is an actor, every fact is a prop, and every scene is directed by a family that believes its own mythology. From the myth-making of Kim Il-sung to the cinematic delusions of Kim Jong-il and the baby-faced brutality of Kim Jong-un, this is the untold history of how a regime turned lies into law—and made the whole planet flinch. Part history, part exposé, part mirror test—The Kingdom of Smoke is a grenade lobbed into the heart of one of the most dangerous lies of our time.
