TV AND WEB RESTRICTIONS~*NO ACCESS NORTH KOREA**~ ROUGH CUT (NO REPORTER NARRATION) STORY: North Korean leader Kim Jong-un paid respect to Kim Il-sung, founder of North Korea and his grandfather, on Sunday. North Korea's state-run television KRT released a video of Kim visiting the Kumsusan Palace of the Sun, the Kim Il-sung mausoleum, as North Korea observed a memorial day for its founder. Kim Il-sung founded the reclusive country in 1948 and invaded the South in 1950. When he died in 1994, his son Kim Jong-il inherited the power. Since the death of Kim Jong-il in December, Kim Jong-un, believed to be in his late 20s, has shown he will continue with his father's hardline "military first" policy.
