Kim Il-chol (Korean: 김일철, 1933 – September 2023) was a North Korean military officer who was a member of the National Defence Commission[1] and Minister for Defence.[2]

Biography

Kim was born in Pyongyang in 1933.[3] He graduated from Mangyongdae Revolutionary School and the Soviet Union Naval Academy.[3] Although the North Korean Army mainly depends on ground troops, Admiral Kim, who was commander of the Korean People's Navy since 1982,[4] was in 1998 installed in the highest military position, the Minister of the People's Armed Forces. This filled a vacancy left by Choe Kwang, who died in February 1997, and indicated that he was fully trusted by Kim Jong Il. Kim Il-chol participated as a senior delegate in the inter-Korean defense minister's meeting held for the first time since the division of the Korean peninsula in September 2000.[5]

Kim was appointed to the National Defence Commission in 1988. He was removed from all positions in 2010, reportedly due to his advanced age.[1]

Kim was a member of the Korea-China Association for Civil Exchange Promotion.[6]

Kim was awarded the Hero of the Republic, Order of Kim Il Sung, and the Order of the National Flag (1st Class).[7]

Kim died in September 2023, at the age of 90.[8]
