SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — Kim Shin-jo, a prominent ex-North Korean commando who resettled in South Korea as a pastor after his daring mission to assassinate then South Korean President Park Chung-hee in 1968 failed, died on Wednesday. He was 82.Kim died of old age after two months of stay at a nursing home and his official funeral is set for Saturday, Kim’s Sungrak Church in Seoul said. It said Kim was survived by his wife, whom he met after resettling in South Korea, and a son and a daughter.

Kim was among a team of 31 North Korean commandos who tried to storm South Korea’s mountainside presidential palace to assassinate Park, an authoritarian president who had been ruling South Korea with an iron-fist since 1961.The North Koreans had slipped undetected through the Koreas’and came within striking distance of Park’s palace. After battles that raged for two weeks in the nearby hills, all but three of the intruders were killed. Two survivors were believed to have returned to North Korea, while Kim was the only one captured alive by South Korean forces.

In a news conference arranged by South Korean authorities, Kim stunned the nation by saying that his team came “to slit the throat of Park Chung-hee.”The attack, which also killed about 30 South Koreans, happened at the height of Cold War rivalry between the rival Koreas which were split into the U.S.-backed South and the Soviet-supported North at the end of World War II in 1945. Afterward, Park’s government launched reservist forces, established a military unit tasked with attacking North Korea, had students take military training at schools and introduced residential registration card systems.

In media interviews, Kim said he was pardoned because he didn’t fire a single bullet during the shootouts and was persuaded by South Korean officials to disavow communism. He said South Korean intelligence authorities later had him travel across the country to make speeches critical of North Korean systems at schools, companies and other places.

Kim said he later learned that his parents in North Korea were executed. Kim was ordained as a pastor in 1997.Hawkins said she is in the third category, while maintaining that abortion abolitionists today are not representative of the broader anti-abortion movement.
