Video | Will Kim Jong-un’s daughter Ju-ae be the next leader of North Korea?
- Ju-ae, who is believed to be 11 years old, was first revealed to the world in photos released in November 2022
- Her frequent appearances have political observers wondering if she’s next in line to become supreme ruler of the reclusive state
Few political observers predicted Kim Jong-un’s daughter Ju-ae would be his likely successor when she made her first public appearance in November 2022.
At the time, Kim’s sister Yo-jong appeared to be a more likely heir apparent. But more than a year later, Ju-ae has become a constant presence at large-scale events, appearing at everything from missile launches to military parades.
Her growing profile has forced the question: is Kim Ju-ae next in line to rule North Korea and become the reclusive state’s first female leader?
