Kim Jong-il (16 February 1941/1942 – 17 December 2011) was the Supreme Leader of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK), commonly referred to as North Korea, from 1994 to 2011.

According to North Korean sources, Kim Jong-il published some 890 works during a part of his career from June 1964 to June 1994.[1] According to the Korean Central News Agency (KCNA), the number of works from 1964 to 2001 was 550.[2] In 2000, it was reported that the Workers' Party of Korea Publishing House has published at least 120 works by Kim.[3] In 2009, KCNA put the numbers as follows:

At least 354,000 copies of [Kim Jong-il's works] were translated into nearly 70 languages and came off the press in about 80 countries in the new century.

There were more than 500 activities for studying and distributing the works in at least 120 countries and regions in 2006. The following year witnessed a total of more than 600 events of diverse forms in at least 130 countries and regions. And 2008 saw at least 3,000 functions held in over 150 countries and regions for the same purpose.[4]

The Selected Works of Kim Jong-il (Enlarged Edition), whose publishing has continued posthumously, runs into volume 24 in Korean,[5] and to volume 15 in English.[6] Volumes three to eight were never published in English.[7]

The Complete Collection of Kim Jong-il's Works is currently in volume 13.[8] There is a "Kim Jong-il's Works Exhibition House" dedicated to his works in North Korea, holding 1,100 of his works and manuscripts.[9]

In his teens and university years, Kim Jong-il wrote poems - notably "O Korea, I will Add Glory to Thee".[10] Kim Jong-il also wrote song lyrics.[11] His first major literary work was On the Art of the Cinema in 1973.[12]
