Information
has glosseng: Dae Wonsu (대원수, Hanja:大元帥) is the highest possible military rank of North Korea and is intended to be held solely by the nation’s commander-in-chief. The rank is senior to that of Wonsu. Dae Wonsu is theoretically equivalent to a seven star General, possibly comparable to a Generalissimo, Grand Marshal or the American rank of General of the Armies (though that is normally considered a six star rank). However in reality the holders of this rank command smaller forces than some commanders from larger countries who have made no claim to such an uncommonly exalted rank. Many South Koreans deride the rank as having been created so as to "out rank" the military leaders of any other nation, rather than for any necessary purpose of military administration.
