“I came here because I wanted to see you.” Known as the "Nelson Mandela of Asia," which president and activist was the first Korean to be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize largely due to his "sunshine policy" with North Korea?

Serving as president for five years from 1998, Kim Dae-Jung did a lot for South Korea during his term. He aimed to stabilize the country's economy and re-establish its democracy, as well as restore North Korean relations with his "sushine policy." The policy was centered on three agreements: 1) no provocation, 2) no attempts to absorb the North, and 3) the active promotion of reconciliation and cooperation.
