The Juche Idea is a political thesis of Kim Il-sung, the founder of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, which says that the Korean masses are the masters of the country’s development.
From the 1950s to the 1970s, Kim elaborated the Juche Idea into a set of principles that the government uses to justify its policy decisions. Among these are independence from great powers, a strong military posture, and reliance on Korean national resources.
The name comes from juche, meaning “main body” or “mainstream,” and is sometimes translated in North Korean sources as “independent stand” or “spirit of self-reliance.” It has also been interpreted as “always putting Korean things first.”
According to Kim Il-sung, the Juche Idea is based on the belief that “man is the master of everything and decides everything.”

Awesome review and education… Highlighting these Vineyards will save me hours and hours per my usual annual M/O of going from garage “Vineyard” to garage Vineyard without a clue of what i am doing (vineyardal aboriginal) … I can also utilize your review as a comparison / contrast… Great site,thanks for all the hard work… i will tell all my friends to check it out… What is your opinion of Barboursville Vineyards? I enjoyed the Cab Franc and a fusion they called Octagon… The estate fosters an awesome atmosphere which seemed to promote “happy grapes ” along with the on site historical ruins, an outstanding wine pairing dinner and a lodge (you can actually lodge in the Servants Quarters circa 1790)… so that after the wine pairing dinner you can stagger over to the servants quarters and pass out…. http://www.barboursvillewine.net/winery/
