The author explains the choice of this medical foundation as the basis for a love story. A names note clarifies North Korean naming order and formatting conventions to guide readers through character references and usage across the narrative’s structure.","[OceanofPDF.com](OceanofPDF.com)  \n[OceanofPDF.com](OceanofPDF.com)  \nThis is a work of fiction.

I hope this one is worthy of it.  \n[OceanofPDF.com](OceanofPDF.com)  \nA NOTE ON NAMES  \nNorth Korean names are written surname first, the opposite of most Western practice. Almost all North Koreans have a two-part forename, spaced and capitalised rather than hyphenated as is the case in South Korea. For example, North Koreans refer to Kim Il Sung, South Koreans to Kim Ilsung.  \n[OceanofPDF.com](OceanofPDF.com)  \nPART I  \nREVOLUTION OF THOUGHT  \n‘It is like a running blaze on a plain, like a flash of lightning in the clouds.
