The Straits Times
|July 31, 2024
North Korean leader Kim Jong Un is grooming his teenage daughter as his successor to lead the nuclear-armed state, according to South Korean MPs briefed by Seoul's spy agency on July 29.
-
The daughter, Kim Ju Ae, whose age has not been confirmed, has been seen with her father at a variety of events, fuelling speculation that Mr Kim has chosen her as heir apparent to lead a fourth generation of hereditary rule by his family.
MP Lee Seong-kweun said the National Intelligence Service (NIS) has judged that she has been chosen as heir.
"Pyongyang is teaching Kim Ju Ae to be heir apparent, indicating she's the most likely successor," Mr Lee told reporters after the agency briefing.
