* 1973 – Kim Dae-jung, a South Korean politician and later president of South Korea, is kidnapped.

President Kim Dae-jung of South Korea actively attempted to reduce tensions between the two Koreas under the Sunshine Policy, but this produced few immediate results.

Major protests and demonstrations against the constitutional amendment broke out, with large support gaining for the opposition leader Kim Dae-jung, but Park was again re-elected in the 1971 presidential election.

Political opponents Kim Dae-jung and Kim Jong-pil were arrested, and Kim Young-sam was confined to house arrest.

This was the limit to what the nation could bear and led to the opposition leader Kim Dae-jung winning the presidency in the same year.

Kim Dae-jung was officially inaugurated in February, 1998.

In diplomacy, Kim Dae-jung pursued the " Sunshine Policy ", a series of efforts to reconcile with North Korea.

For these efforts, Kim Dae-jung was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 2000.

These economic reforms, pushed by President Kim Dae-jung, helped Korea maintain one of Asia's few expanding economies, with growth rates of 10. 8 % in 1999 and 9. 2 % in 2000.

The fifth stage was improved following the 1997 election of Kim Dae-jung.

* December 3 – Kim Dae-jung, South Korean politician ( d. 2009 )

In the election, the two leading opposition figures, Kim Young-sam and Kim Dae-jung ( both of whom later became presidents ), were unable to overcome their differences and split the vote.

Kim Dae-jung ( 3 December 1925 – 18 August 2009 ) was 8th President of the Republic of Korea from 1998 to 2003, and the 2000 Nobel Peace Prize recipient.

When Chun Doo-hwan succumbed to the popular demand in 1987 and allowed the country's first honest presidential election, Kim Dae-jung and Kim Young-sam both ran, despite an initial promise to unite behind one candidate.

Kim Young-sam receiving 28 % and Kim Dae-jung 27 % of the vote.

Kim Dae-jung was the first president to serve out his full term who came from the Jeolla region in the southwest, an area that had been neglected and less developed, at least partly because of discriminatory policies of previous presidents.

Kim Dae-jung took office in the midst of the economic crisis that hit South Korea in the final year of Kim Young-sam's term.

A presidential library at Yonsei University was built to preserve Kim's legacy, and there is a convention center named after him in the city of Gwangju, the Kim Dae-jung Convention Center.

An interfaith state funeral was held for former President Kim Dae-jung on 23 August 2009 in front of the National Assembly Building, with a procession leading to the Seoul National Cemetery where he was interred according to Catholic traditions.
