corruption.\u003cbr\u003e More than 350 current and former employees were investigated by prosecutors, and 46 employees, including three heads of the National Intelligence Service, were sent to prison.\u003cbr\u003e The National Intelligence Service suffered a wound beyond imagination from the eradication of corruption.\u003cbr\u003e The spirit of the intelligence agency was injured.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Through this book, I pointed out the difficult reality facing the National Intelligence Service and suggested that President Yoon Seok-yeol exercise extraordinary leadership to strengthen the agency's intelligence capabilities.\u003cbr\u003e I sincerely hope that this book will contribute, even if only slightly, to the National Intelligence Service's advancement into a better intelligence agency.\u003cbr\u003e ---From the \"Preface\"\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eWhen I took office as director of the National Intelligence Service in March 2015, a new and urgent task was emerging in the silent war between North and South Korea.\u003cbr\u003e It was a slush fund that was used to strengthen North Korea's nuclear and missile capabilities, which was used to suffocate Kim Jong-un.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e On January 6, 2016, the third year of President Park Geun-hye's term, North Korea conducted a nuclear test.\u003cbr\u003e It was the fourth time since 2009.\u003cbr\u003e UN Security Council sanctions against North Korea have been fully implemented.\u003cbr\u003e Information is key to the policy of pressuring North Korea through tightening the financial system.\u003cbr\u003e North Korea has used every means of evasion to avoid international scrutiny.\u003cbr\u003e The National Intelligence Service's efforts to find this out were fierce.\u003cbr\u003e A fierce game of hide-and-seek unfolded between those trying to hide and those trying to find.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Then, the world of the Moon Jae-in administration became something we had never experienced before.\u003cbr\u003e The National Intelligence Service's efforts to gather information on North Korea, which had been pursuing North Korea, were blocked by a large rock wall.\u003cbr\u003e ---「I.\u003cbr\u003e From “The Mission and History of the National Intelligence Service”\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eIntelligence agencies in every country in the world perform special functions.\u003cbr\u003e This special function is called covert action in the United States and active measures in Russia.\u003cbr\u003e It refers to the work of actively and secretly targeting information targets to achieve national policy goals.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Most of the secret contacts between North and South Korea throughout our history were the work of the National Intelligence Service.\u003cbr\u003e All secret negotiations with North Korea that have taken place so far, including the July 4th North-South Joint Statement by former KCIA Director Lee Hu-rak, the Kim Dae-jung administration's remittance of $450 million to North Korea, and the first North-South summit, were carried out by intelligence agencies.\u003cbr\u003e All of this falls under the category of covert operations.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The Moon Jae-in administration has comprehensively revised the National Intelligence Service Act.\u003cbr\u003e All special activities against North Korea carried out by the National Intelligence Service are activities without legal basis. \u003cbr\u003eFurthermore, behind-the-scenes contact with North Korea is a task that has no legal basis and should not be done.\u003cbr\u003e ---「II.\u003cbr\u003e From “Understanding National Intelligence”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The Moon Jae-in administration suddenly sent former President Park Geun-hye and three National Intelligence Service directors to prison on charges of embezzlement of national funds, under the pretext of eradicating deep-rooted evils.\u003cbr\u003e It ruled that the president's command of the National Intelligence Service budget was illegal.\u003cbr\u003e I testified in court to the following effect:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e “The President’s authority to command the National Intelligence Service is guaranteed by the Constitution and the law.\u003cbr\u003e The president's first responsibility is national security.\u003cbr\u003e The President must be able to mobilize all the nation's resources to ensure national security.\u003cbr\u003e Former President Park Geun-hye neither embezzled money nor used National Intelligence Service support funds for personal gain.\u003cbr\u003e “And yet, the president misused the National Intelligence Service budget, causing a loss to the national treasury. This is an absurd criminal charge that could not be committed in any civilized country.”\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eI believe that the ruling to liquidate corruption will be recorded in history as the biggest blemish on the Kim Myung-soo judicial system.\u003cbr\u003e A constitutional petition has been filed regarding this Supreme Court ruling.\u003cbr\u003e ---「II.\u003cbr\u003e From “Understanding National Intelligence”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e South Korea must not neglect the suffering of the North Korean people, both from the perspective of human rights, a universal value of humanity, and from the historical imperative of unification of the Korean Peninsula.\u003cbr\u003e We must quietly work to create conditions for peaceful unification.\u003cbr\u003e That job is obviously the responsibility of the National Intelligence Service.\u003cbr\u003e The National Intelligence Service's 'Creating Peaceful Unification' projects and programs are diverse.\u003cbr\u003e The project's theme is to ensure that all North Koreans share the belief that \"the future of the Korean people lies in South Korea.\"\u003cbr\u003e There are also efforts to awaken the consciousness of North Korean citizens by exploiting the regime's vulnerabilities, such as human rights issues. \u003cbr\u003eThere are also programs designed to undermine the cohesion of North Korean elites by spreading the message that if they engage in friendly activities with us, they will have nothing to fear when unification occurs.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The National Intelligence Service's various projects toward North Korea have received considerable response within North Korea.\u003cbr\u003e The increase in defectors, especially elite defectors, attests to this.\u003cbr\u003e During my tenure as the Director of the National Intelligence Service, there was a continuous stream of defectors, including the group defection of 13 employees from Yukyung Restaurant.\u003cbr\u003e There have been defections by a double-digit number of high-ranking North Korean elites, including Ambassador Thae Yong-ho.\u003cbr\u003e A mood of admiration for South Korea was gradually spreading among North Korean residents.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e But then the Moon Jae-in government suddenly appeared.\u003cbr\u003e The effort to instill hope in North Korean citizens has been dealt a crushing blow.\u003cbr\u003e The Moon Jae-in administration has neglected North Korean defectors who risked their lives to escape.\u003cbr\u003e Even elite defectors were kicked out. \u003cbr\u003eA North Korean fisherman was forcibly repatriated through Panmunjom while blindfolded.\u003cbr\u003e Even in the eyes of North Korean citizens, the Moon Jae-in administration must have been seen as a regime that only deals with and courts the brutal dictator Kim Jong-un.\u003cbr\u003e In this way, North Korean people lost hope in South Korea.\u003cbr\u003e ---「V.\u003cbr\u003e From “The Crisis on the Korean Peninsula and the Nature of the North Korean Regime”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e National intelligence work is largely divided into two areas.\u003cbr\u003e The fields are Internal Security \u0026amp; Intelligence and Foreign Intelligence.\u003cbr\u003e Of these two major national intelligence functions, the Moon Jae-in administration has effectively dismantled the domestic security intelligence sector.\u003cbr\u003e The Moon Jae-in administration pushed to abolish the National Intelligence Service's counterintelligence investigation authority and transfer it to the police.\u003cbr\u003e And the domestic intelligence division of the National Intelligence Service was effectively abolished.\u003cbr\u003e The National Intelligence Service's function of protecting the country has been completely weakened.\u003cbr\u003e This is a development that North Korea is very pleased with.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eIt is well known that North Korea has consistently demanded the abolition of the National Security Law and the disbandment of the National Intelligence Service for the past 70 years.\u003cbr\u003e This is because the National Security Act and the National Intelligence Service are the biggest obstacles to what they want to do, namely, the operation of the South Korean communist project.\u003cbr\u003e The Moon Jae-in administration has effectively dismantled the obstacles that North Korea's intelligence agencies had hoped for, thereby offering them to North Korea.\u003cbr\u003e ---「VI.\u003cbr\u003e From “The Ordeal of the National Intelligence Service”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Currently, routine work at the National Intelligence Service that does not involve risk is going well.\u003cbr\u003e However, the impetus to pursue more breakthrough information work has been lost.\u003cbr\u003e With this kind of attitude, will the National Intelligence Service be able to properly fulfill its role as an intelligence agency that will overcome the national security crisis we face in the future?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e That is why the National Intelligence Service must quickly become a proper intelligence agency.\u003cbr\u003e It is absolutely necessary for national security.\u003cbr\u003e There is only one way. \u003cbr\u003eIt is about returning to the basics of information management, applying it to the operation of the National Intelligence Service, and waiting for the time to accumulate and establish it.\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e ---「VII.\u003cbr\u003e From “Suggestions for the Future”\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003ch5\u003e \u003cb\u003ePublisher's Review\u003c\/b\u003e\n\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e \u003cb\u003eWho Benefits from the NIS's Downfall?\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 350 current and former officials investigated by prosecutors, 46 sentenced to prison, including three former heads.

Therefore, the National Intelligence Service, which lacks domestic intelligence and covert operations functions, cannot achieve its original purpose as an intelligence agency, which is national security.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Who has benefited most from this reduction in the functions and demotion of national intelligence agencies? This is precisely why the book so bluntly labels \"left-wing\" in its title.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e It is well known that North Korea has consistently demanded the abolition of the National Security Law and the disbandment of the National Intelligence Service for the past 70 years.\u003cbr\u003e The Moon Jae-in administration has effectively dismantled the obstacles that North Korea's intelligence agencies had hoped for, thereby offering them to North Korea.\u003cbr\u003e (VI.\u003cbr\u003e The National Intelligence Service's Trials, p. 281)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eWork in the shade and aim for the sun\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\"We work in the shade and aim for the sun.\" This was the motto of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and the Agency for National Security Planning (ANSP), the predecessors of the National Intelligence Service (NIS), which was first established in 1961 and lasted for 38 years until the early years of the Kim Dae-jung administration.\u003cbr\u003e In 1999, the name was changed to the current National Intelligence Service, and after going through several changes in government and four changes in the institute's motto, the Yoon Seok-yeol administration restored the original motto of \"working in the shadows and aiming for the sun.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The author graduated from the 19th class of the Korea Military Academy in 1963, served in the Vietnam War as a reconnaissance platoon leader, and upon returning, was dispatched as an interpreter to the U.S. Army Okinawa Intelligence School, where he began working in overseas intelligence work.\u003cbr\u003e He left the National Intelligence Service (NIS) after serving as the Second Deputy Director in charge of overseas affairs, but returned as the third NIS director under the Park Geun-hye administration after 18 years.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThe book is also an introductory guide to the inner workings of national intelligence work, which must constantly walk a tightrope between legality and illegality, publicity and secrecy.\u003cbr\u003e The book is filled with vivid stories from the field, including the shock he felt when he learned of the assassination of the president by the current director of the Korean Central Intelligence Agency while working at the U.S. Embassy in Washington, the Chun Doo-hwan-Reagan summit that came to fruition by chance, the Aung San terror attack, the behind-the-scenes coordination of Roh Tae-woo's Northern Policy, the defection of former Ambassador Tae Yong-ho, and the mass defection of 13 people from Yugyong Restaurant.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e It helps to understand intelligence work by comparing the activities of world-class national intelligence agencies, such as the CIA in the United States, MI6 in the United Kingdom, and Mossad in Israel, with those of the National Intelligence Service.\u003cbr\u003e In particular, the Entebbe Rescue Operation (1976), a notable success story in the execution of intelligence agency missions, and the Hamas invasion of Israel in 2023, a case of great failure, make us nod our heads as to why 'silent dedication' behind the scenes is necessary for a safe society.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLet the intelligence agency be an intelligence

pardoned by the Yoon Seok-yeol government while serving his sentence.\u003cbr\u003e The book presents four specific innovation tasks to restore the status and national security functions of the National Intelligence Service of the Republic of Korea, and strongly urges the creation of a so-called \"National Intelligence Service Innovation Task Force\" to implement these tasks.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e · Re-revision of the National Intelligence Service Act\u003cbr\u003e · Restoration of domestic security information functions\u003cbr\u003e · Advancing information
