Lee Bo-ik (Korean: 리보익; May 31, 1876 - October 18, 1959), grandmother of Kim Il-sung, chairman of the DPRK, and great-grandmother of Kim Jong-il, the general secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea. She was a farmer from Pyongyang, South Pyongan Province, North Korea, and the wife of Kim Bo-hyǒn, who was also a farmer.

Life

She was born on May 31, 1876 in Pyongyang, South Pyongan Province.

She eventually married Kim Bo-hyon, a farmer, and gave birth to three sons and three daughters: eldest son Kim Hyong-jik (father of Kim Il-sung), second son Kim Hyongnok, third son Kim Hyong-gwon, eldest daughter Kim Gu-il, second daughter Kim Hyong-sil, and third daughter Kim Hyong-bok.

On June 4, 1937, the Battle of Pochonbo occurred in Kapsan County, South Hamgyong Province. Later, Kim Young-ju, who worked as an interpreter for the Japanese army, learned that the mastermind of the attack was his brother Kim Il-sung. In order to gain Kim Yong-ju's cooperation, Japan handed over his grandmother.

On August 15, 1945, her grandson Kim Il-sung returned to China from the Soviet Union.

She died on October 18, 1959 at the age of 83 and a statue in her honor stands at the Revolutionary Martyrs' Cemetery.

Yi Poik and Kim Pohyŏn were likened as "patriots" by the Editorial Committee for the Short Biography of Kim Il Sung.
