the kim kyung-cheon identity theft thing is a conspiracy, kim il-sung made up actual aspects of his background (like the 타도제국주의동맹 stuff) but theres no actual evidence for this beyond general mekler (whom is a good source otherwise i genuinely dont know what he was talking about here)

Several sources believe that Kim Kyung-Cheon the original Kim Il Sung based on the allegation that North Korean leader Kim Il Sung stole his identity. He was an early Korean independence activist OTL, joining the Korean Independence Movement in 1919. During the Russian Civil War, his troops managed to impress Red Army commanders with good discipline. In January 1923, he attended the conference of Korean Provisional Government in Shanghai and decided to create a communist Korean regime which would be based in the[Soviet Union denied the "republic's" legitimacy as an independent entity, leading Ji to leave the Soviet Union while Kim remained. During the Great Purge), Kim was arrested for protesting against Joseph Stalin's Korean Dislocation policy and eventually died in a Soviet prison. He and Ji Cheong-cheon and Shin Dong-cheon were called "3 cheons of South Manchuria" (南满三天). He was also referred to as 擎天金将軍 (경천 김장군) (literally meaning "Heaven-supporting General Kim") by Koreans in Manchuria. He died in 1942 in a gulag.
In the KRTL, he would likely be in China with the LKMT or KMT aligned faction given his leftist past. He would also be fairly important in the Korean Independence Movement due to his effectiveness as a military leader. He should have the harsh leader and trickster traight
Hong Beom-do was one of the OTL commander-in-chiefs of the Korean Independence Army. He saw considerable success against the Japanese in the 1920s but was eventually forced to flee to the Soviet Union where he was deported by Stalin and died in Kazakhstan. He was one of the more senior commanders of the Korean Independence Movement. He isn't really politically aligned other than his goal to liberate Korea and him fleeing to the Soviet Union OTL was more motivated by necessity than ideology![image](https://github.com/Kaiserreich/Kaiserreich-4-Bug-Reports/assets/113668148/63ce8535-2995-400f-8b23-ae360a63f36c)
