  • Als Office 39 (auch Bureau 39, Room 39, Division 39 und Büro 39) wird eine geheime Einrichtung des Zentralkomitees (ZK) der Partei der Arbeit Koreas (PdAK) bezeichnet, die der Finanzierung des nordkoreanischen Regimes unter Kim Jong-il dient. Indizien weisen darauf hin, dass sich die Organisation weltweiter krimineller Machenschaften bedient, um den luxuriösen Lebensstandard der politischen Elite und deren militärische Einrichtungen erhalten zu können. So soll das Office 39 in Falschgeldhandel, Zigarettenschmuggel, Drogengeschäfte und Versicherungsbetrug verwickelt sein.

  • Room 39 (also referred to as Bureau 39, Division 39, or Office 39) is a secretive Democratic People's Republic of Korea government organization that seeks ways to maintain the foreign currency slush fund of North Korea's leader Kim Jong-il. The organization holds as much as $5 billion in funds, and may be involved in illegal activities, such as counterfeiting $100 bills, manufacturing illegal drugs and international insurance fraud. Although the seclusion of the North Korean state makes it difficult to evaluate this kind of information, many claim that Room 39 is critical to Kim Jong-il's continued power, enabling him to buy political support and to help fund North Korea's nuclear weapons program. Room 39 is believed to be located inside a ruling Workers' Party building in Pyongyang, not far from Mr. Kim's villa.
  • Kontor 39 (eller Office 39, Bureau 39, Division 39) er en hemmelig organisasjon i Pyongyang i Nord-Korea, som har som oppgave å forvalte og opprettholde Kim Jong-ils pengebeholdning i utenlandsk valuta. Organisasjonen administrerer så mye som fem milliarder USD, og er trolig involvert i flere illegale aktiviteter, som blant annet falskmyntneri. Hemmelighetskremmeriet rundt Kontor 39 gjør det vanskelig å kunne avgjøre i hvor stor grad kontorets rolle er å opprettholde Kim Jong-ils politiske makt, for eksempel ved kjøp av olitisk støtte og kapasitet til å finansiere militære programmer. Kontor 39 ble etablert sent på 1970-tallet, og er kjernen i Kim-dynastiets økonomi. Tidlig i 2010 rapporterte det sørkoreanske nyhetsbyrået Yonhap at Kim Dong-un, som fram til da hadde ledet kontoret, ble erstattet med sin nestkommanderende, Jon Il-chun. Den sørkoreanske dagsavisa Chosun Ilbo rapporterte at Kontor 38, ledet av Kim Tong-il ble fusjonert med Kontor 39 sent i 2009, men at de igjen ble fisjonert i 2010 på grunn av vanskeligheter med å skaffe til veie utenlandsk valuta.
  • La Division 39 (Room 39 ou Bureau 39 en anglais) est une organisation gouvernementale secrète de la Corée du Nord visant à alimenter la caisse noire de Kim Jong-il, dirigeant de la République populaire démocratique de Corée. On estime que cette organisation possède plus de 5 milliards de dollars de fonds générés par des activités légales (vente d'armes entre autres) mais également illégales telles que la contrefaçon monétaire et le trafic de drogue. Bien que l'isolement dans lequel est plongé l'État nord-coréen rende l'accès à ces informations extrêmement difficile, certains affirment que la Division 39 est vitale pour Kim Jong-il, celle-ci lui permettant notamment d'acheter un support politique et de financer le programme d'armement nucléaire Nord-coréen.
