CEO Lee Si-yeon explained that what was formerly known as HID by its official name is now called by a different name and is a special organization prepared to conduct operations at all times, without distinguishing between legal and illegal boundaries, in both peacetime and wartime. This organization maintains a state of readiness to strike immediately once a target is set.
Lee stated that special forces maintain the ability to strike and subdue targets 24 hours a day, at any time, through constant self-training, even during peacetime when no specific mission is assigned. They continuously conduct comprehensive training, including striking, armed running, swimming, and aerial insertion, to be ready to neutralize targets immediately upon command.
When asked about establishing a HUMINT network within North Korea, CEO Lee Si-yeon replied that the specific details of intelligence activities are highly classified and cannot be disclosed on public airwaves. He explained that the essence of such operations lies in maintaining security, and this answer implies the sensitivity and difficulty of internal intelligence activities in North Korea.
It's a situation where both sides maintain extreme security, so it's difficult for me to answer whether it happened or not.
Lee emphasized that North Korea has a fundamental strategy of infiltrating and destabilizing South Korean society 24 hours a day whenever an opportunity arises. He raised the possibility that North Korean agents may be active within South Korean society and stressed the need to always remain vigilant and protect our society.
CEO Lee Si-yeon explained that for an operation to succeed, targets must first be selected and forces prepared, which is preceded by a 1-2 year analysis of everything about the target by the CIA's tracking team. This analyzed information is then provided to the special forces, or action team, leading to precision strikes through set-piece practice.
Lee emphasized that in modern warfare, all physical military operations can only be carried out if invisible intelligence operations precede them. He explained that intelligence operations are conducted secretly to prevent tactical exposure, and modern warfare itself takes on the aspect of information warfare.
CEO Lee Si-yeon stated that the residence of a supreme leader like Kim Jong Un cannot be pinpointed to a single location. He explained that North Korea operates several designated locations called 'special mansions,' and changes residences frequently depending on the situation of the day, making it difficult to predict his movements. This operational method is part of a strategy to protect the supreme leader from external surveillance and threats.
