Kim Tok Hun (김덕훈, born 1961) is a North Korean politician who is currently the premier of North Korea and a full member on the Presidium of the Politburo of the Workers' Party of Korea.
He is additionally a vice president of the State Affairs Commission.
Kim was previously a delegate for North-South cooperation.
Kim served as a vice premier between 2014 and 2020.
He joined the WPK Central Committee in 2016, and was later promoted to the WPK Politburo in 2019.
Kim Tok Hun has been a member of the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea since the 7th Congress in May 2016.
He also served as the head of the WPK's Cadre Affairs Department from December 2019 to August 2020.
He later joined the party Politburo on 11 April 2019 as an alternate member, and was promoted to full member on 31 December, and concurrently as a party vice-chairman, with a portfolio that included heading the Cadre Affairs Department.
He was appointed the premier in August 2020.
He possibly earned Kim Jong Un's approval by uncovering a corruption scandal involving cadre training facilities in February 2020.
In April 2020 he was also elected chairman of the Budget Committee of the Supreme People's Assembly.
On 13 August 2020, in the wake of COVID-19 spillover in North Korea and floods hitting the southern part of the country, he was appointed premier of the cabinet by Kim Jong Un, and elevated to the top-level Politburo Presidium.
Since 2022, he has been the second-highest-ranking official in North Korea after Kim Jong Un.
In August 2023, Kim Jong Un, the leader of North Korea, publicly voiced strong criticism of Kim Tok Hun and his cabinet for their handling of the Ansok tideland disaster following tropical storm Khanun in a Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) article.
He alleged that the recovery efforts were inadequately organized and executed, showing a lack of urgency and commitment.
The North Korean leader expressed deep concern over the decline in administrative and economic discipline within the Cabinet stating "the administrative and economic discipline of the Kim Tok Hun Cabinet has got out of order more seriously".
He attributed the inefficiencies in dealing with the crisis to this decline.
Kim Jong Un criticized Kim Tok Hun for what he saw as a weak work attitude and misguided perspective regarding the Ansok tideland situation.
The premier's alleged neglect of his responsibilities in the crisis was a point of significant concern with Kim Jong Un saying "...the premier looked round the site once or twice with the attitude of an onlooker and sent a vice-premier to it, who played the role of a fuel supplier only".
In his critique, Kim Jong Un hinted at the possibility of expelling the director of the Tideland Reclamation Bureau from the WPK, implying that the director may have played a role in the mishandling of the disaster.
The North Korean leader emphasized the necessity of ideological and moral reforms among government officials.
He called on them to demonstrate a strong work ethic and unwavering commitment to the nation's well-being.
Kim Jong Un underscored that the damage resulting from the Ansok tideland flooding was not solely a natural calamity but rather a human-induced disaster.
He held accountable those who did not heed the Party's guidance and exhibited irresponsibility in their duties.
Following this incident, according to a North Hamgyong resident, "administrative officials, including the People’s Committee and managers of factories and institutions at all levels, are walking on eggshells".
