(CNN) -- North Korean leader Kim Jong Il is dead, North Korean state TV said Monday.

Kim, 69, died at 8:30 a.m. Saturday, state TV said.

A broadcaster reported that Kim died due to "overwork" after "dedicating his life to the people." hahahahahaha hah

South Korean news agency Yonhap -- which based its reporting on its monitoring off North Korean state television -- said that Kim had died during a train trip.

South Korea's military declared an "emergency alert" following Kim's death, according to Yonhap.

The son of Kim Il Song, the founder of the communist nation, Kim Jong Il had been in power since 1994 when his father died of a heart attack at age 82.

The enigmatic leader was a frequent thorn in the side of neighboring South Korea, as well as the United States. There have been reports in recent years about his health, as well as that power will be transitioned to his son, Kim Jong Un.

North Korean news reports earlier this fall indicated that Kim Jong Il had been traveling around the country and visiting China, a big change from 2009 when he was thought to be ill with cancer.

Two senior U.S. military officials said then that they believed the pace of North Korea's planned regime change from Kim to his 20-something son appeared to have slowed.

The son, also known as Kim, started his career as a four-star general and in recent years was given more official duties by his father.

CNN's Wolf Blitzer, who traveled to Pyongyang a year ago with former U.S. ambassador Bill Richardson, said that "the assumption (then) was that he was sick" but still in "decent shape."

Now it is a "totally uncertain situation," Blitzer said.

IDK, the devil you know is better than the devil you don't know...

They allowed themselves to be led by a dictator. I don't see that changing too much too quickly.

The Koreans always remind me of the Lilliputians.

The American colonies allowed themselves to do the same for a while ... and before they immigrated over to the new world they did then too. But things changed, as you know. SO CUT IT OUT you party pooper.

Just a small example of what life was like under his rule...

Kim Jong Il, North Korea. This is the most ruthless and totalitarian regime in the world, by a good margin. It is simply in a class by itself. Every home has “the speaker” in the wall, to dish out propaganda all day, and radios can be only tuned to preset stations. If someone makes a political mistake, the whole family is sent off to a political concentration camp, and in the late 1990’s Kim Jong Il presided over the death by famine of some 2 million people. When the wife of one of Kim Jong Il’s bodyguards complained about the Dear Leader’s womanizing, she was arrested and brought out before the guests at one of Kim Jong Il’s parties. Everyone denounced her and then Kim Jong Il allowed the bodyguard the opportunity to execute his own wife — and he did so.

His son will take his place, and is more than likely responsible for his fathers death.

nothing will change.

Wow, the son must be pretty sharp if he was promoted to four star general in his 20s!

North Korea carried out a meticulously choreographed funeral for its late leader Kim Jong Il today and affirmed that the country was now in the 'warm care' of his son.

funeral pics previous page.

PYONGYANG -- Following the mourning period for former leader Kim Jong Il, North Korean authorities have begun to punish citizens who did not display enough sadness at his death, The Daily NK reported Wednesday.

The Daily NK, an online newspaper based in South Korea and run by opponents of the North Korean government, said it had learned from a source in North Hamkyung Province that, "The authorities are handing down at least six months in a labor-training camp to anybody who didn't participate in the organized gatherings during the mourning period, or who did participate but didn't cry and didn't seem genuine."

Daily NK also said that the source reported that those critical of the country's dynastic system - which saw Kim replaced by his son Kim Jong Eun - were being sent to re-education camps or banished with their families to remote areas.

In addition, the paper said, the source reported public trials were being held for those who attempted to leave North Korea during the mourning period for Kim and even for those who used mobile phones to call out.
