Now in Pyongyang (Korean: 지금 평양에선) is a South Korean TV series depicting the top political echelons of North Korea in 1980s, with Kim Jong Il as the protagonist. As part of South Korea's anti-North Korean propaganda at the time, the drama shows Kim's vicious side and his tyranny over women, but it also tries to show that Kim has a human side.[1] It aired on KBS1 from 30 November 1982 to 14 May 1985, with a total of 199 episodes.[2] The drama was a huge success at the time, and the actor Kim Byung-ki, who played Kim Jong Il, shot to fame.[3][4]
