From a personal source, original research and all that, I was told that President Park planned to use snipers to shoot student leaders during protests, and that Kim was so appalled at the idea that he felt he had no choice but to kill Park. DOR (HK) (talk) 04:28, 18 April 2011 (UTC)

Needs references

Needs references, added tag. I looked in History of South Korea article and didn't see an obvious source for the material. So, it needs to be added to both articles.--FloNight 13:29, 13 December 2005 (UTC)
