Boudot was once a diehard believer of Nietzsche philosophy.

Then, he became interested in the Juche philosophy while reading Kim Jong Il's famous works "On the Juche Idea" and "On Some Questions in Understanding the Juche Philosophy". His colleagues never believed that he would be a follower of the Juche idea.

When he was visiting the Democratic People's Republic of Korea for the third time, he suffered sickness.

Upon hearing his situation, Kim Jong Il sent tonics to him and took a measure to treat his disease in the country, saying he was a follower of the Juche idea.

So he spent some 40 days in hospital in Pyongyang.

In a letter to his colleagues, Boudot said: "I earnestly request you to come to the DPRK and learn the Juche idea, bidding farewell to the deep-rooted European arrogance and prejudice against Asia."
