A declassified U.S. intelligence document shows that North Korean founder Kim Il-sung was born as an ordinary man named Kim Song-ju, who later adopted the name of a pro-independence general as his alias.
 
According to the Voice of America(VOA), the Central Intelligence Agency(CIA) has recently disclosed classified information about Kim’s identity initially drafted in 1949, which also claims he murdered two people in China before reaching adulthood.
 
The CIA said that Kim Song-ju immigrated to Manchuria following his parents at the age of 14, where he killed a classmate in a Chinese high school after stealing his money. The document says that he later settled in another Chinese region, and killed another man surnamed Choi in Harbin to make travel expenses to go to the Soviet Union.
 
At the age of 18, he gained trust of Li Lisan, an early leader of the Communist Party of China, and joined the party.
 
The CIA said there was a Korean called General Kim Il-sung, who led a pro-independence movement against the Japanese colonizers in 1919. It said Li made Kim Song-ju change his name to Kim Il-sung in October of 1931, and since then Kim had been known as the commander of an anti-Japanese guerilla operating near Mount Baekdu.
