Beom Dae (born May 10th, 1948) is the Paramount Leader of Neo-Korea, having served in the role for a period of approximately 39 years as of 2034. Beom Dae is the longest-reigning leader of any state within modern Korean History, coming to power in the wake of the death of Hikaru Sakuma after being appointed as a compromise candidate for the previously unfilled position of Deputy Paramount Leader in the Third Emergency Party Congress (Neo-Korea), after having previously held a position in both the Central Governing Council and as the Minister of Cultural Affairs. Originally installed as an easy-to-control puppet leader, Beom would seize control of the state through his annexation of Jungg'o, which compounded upon his public support to the point where he was able to dispose of those who had installed him to power. These actions were generally carried out through reassignment to secondary positions in far-off locations of the State, and the more direct assassination of certain key figures.

Beom Dae's leadership has involved many shifts in policy in comparison to his direct predecessor, most notably in his favoring of the "Right" faction of the National Development Party, which has generally manifested as support to the Iminchebol and the establishment of Lushun as a testing ground for the concept of economic opening to the world.

Beom Dae was born in Fuzan shortly before its destruction via nuclear bomb in the Great War, and he would be one of the foremost supporters of its reconstruction in the wake of the civil war, spending the majority of his career both as a student in the Fuzan People's College (at this point located in Omiskan) and as a member of the Central Governing Council agitating for assistance to its reconstruction.

Early Life

Beom Dae was born in Fuzan shortly before the end of the Great War, with his family forced to leave the city by the conflict, evacuating the city a year before the Atomic Bombing of Busan occured. He would be raised on the outskirts of Omiskan throughout the course of the conflict, before moving with his family to the south of the country in the prelude to the civil war- his family throwing their lot in with the nucleus of what would become Neo-Korea, at that point under the leadership of Hikaru Sakuma. He would join the nascent White Guard- a militant youth movement being organized by Hikaru's second-in-command, Pyoyter Nakiovich, around this point, additionally joining the prototype of the National Development Party. He would not particularly distinguish himself in this period, with his greatest role in the overall conflict being assisting in the repair of certain vehicle. Beom would form connections with Muraoka Shig around this period, as a part of his previously mentioned repair assistance- with the two meeting during an attempt to fix a damaged 30' MCV- where, after a dispute on what method should actually be used to repair the craft, the two would engage in a fist fight, which would eventually turn into a drinking session after the conflict ended.

Political Career

Beom Dae was the successor to Shiro Chiasa, who had been a minor leader during the Civil War. Shiro had been elected in the previous 1970 elections- primarily as a result of his Civil War experience. The two had a notably hostile relationship- with Chiasa describing Beom as an "ill-tempered, foolish man- lacking an ideological commitment to the Party- and failing to see the key points of ideological development necessary for the future". No statements of Beom's own opinion on Chiasa have been written, or, at least, recorded by Beom Dae, although (shortly before his death, and shortly after Beom's acension to the role of Deputy Paramount Leader) Chiasa would be reassigned to an agricultural position in Jungg'o. Beom Dae would, during this period, organize relief and reconstruction efforts for Fuzanm including the establishment one of the first HSR networks in the nation as a means to more easily transport material to assist in these efforts.

After a relatively swift 4 years, Beom would be brought into the Hikaru cabinet as the Minister of Cultural Affairs. This appointment of a previously minor official is primarily believed to be due to his efforts in supporting Fuzan, and due to his genuine popularity amongst the population as a result. He would work alongside the leader of the Ministry of Economic Development, one Muraoka Shig, to promote tourism from abroad on Far Island. Resulting in an increase to its value economically to the state. He would also work to involve the nascent Iminchebol in cultural efforts, including armament showcases and economic development designed to account for (and protect) locations of cultural import.

He would be given the position of Deputy Paramount Leader after 3 years of Hikaru being in a coma, as a result the CGC determining that a successor had become necessary to maintain public belief in the sustainability of the government, Beom being chosen as a compromise candidate between the "Center" (Consisting of the established elements of the party) and "Left" (comprised primarily of the CIS) factions. This choice was because he was not believed to possess any particular ambitions that would make him unwilling to follow their directions, thus meaning that they could maintain the pace of partification they were currently engaging in. Beom's first two years as deputy would seemingly prove this, with the approval the vast majority of proposed policy, and personal support the appointment of supposed loyalists to these factions in the hall of power, although even at this early stage he had begun appointing his own loyalists to minor roles within the state.

Upon ascending to power, Beom would take action to secure his own power via a false-flag operation blaming Jungg'o for rioting within the country around this period, additionally associating the Center faction with supposedly "Subverting" members of the "Center" into not taking action against said riots. With the conflict- and the later occupation, Beom would appoint members of opposed factions to minor roles abroad, far away from the center of power, most notably the reassignment of the former Head of the CGC to management of a hydroelectric plant.

Ideological Developments

Beom has heavily realigned the National Development Party around its former "Right" flank, instituting the "1995 System" which bolstered the power of the Iminchebol, and supporting economic opening to foreign investment in Lushun, alongside state backing for their expansion abroad. The economic aspect of these reforms has primarily manifested in his personal efforts to open lines of foreign trade with nations such as Svetvostok and the Federation of Atkemri.

Personal Life

Personality

Beom Dae has been notably reclusive throughout his career, with very little being publicly known about his relationship with others, in the past or present. From what has been gleaned from interpersonal interaction with other leaders, it has been deemed likely that he exhibits limited traits of Antisocial Personality Disorder (APD), although no official diagnosis has been made.

Beom Dae has notably been involved in multiple architectural programs, with it being stated (and due to the lack of specific traits notable to the work of other Neo-Korean architects) all-but-confirmed that he was directly involved in the design of Beom Dae Tower, The Fuzan Center for The Arts, and other notable structures in Neo-Korea.

Health

Beom Dae is notably healthy for a person of his age, having exhibited no major loss of physical capability throughout his 39-year period of political leadership. While his health records have not been released, it is presumed that he is not suffering from any major medical issues as of the current period, although his glasses have become progressively larger throughout the last 5 years. This good health is presumed to be due to regular exercise and access to the best healthcare within the country.
