North Korea's state agency offers a clue why that may have happened, having reported repeatedly that Ju-ae is the leader's 'most beloved' child as well as the 'precious' child he cares most for. Given her father's own two older brothers were passed over after being thought insufficiently brutal, it would hardly be unprecedented for it to happen again now. Ju-ae is believed to have an older brother as well as a younger sister - born respectively in 20. And, consequently, he had to move fast and ruthlessly to consolidate his power. Although at the age of eight he was privately endorsed as heir and given a general's uniform (military top brass had to start bowing to him), his status as the next Supreme Leader wasn't publicly confirmed until a year before his father died in 2011. North Korean experts suggest, however, that he is trying to prevent a repetition of the chaos of his own coming to power. Kim himself may be chronically obese, a lover of rich cheese and a chainsmoker, but he's still only 39 - which may make succession planning seem a little premature. The nuclear-armed tyrant spends a far greater proportion of his country's budget on defence than any other country, even as many of his wretched people face malnutrition and even starvation. It will confirm to the country's vast armed forces that she will be a worthy successor to her father. If Ju-ae has indeed been nominated to become the third descendant of Kim Il-sung to lord it over North Korea, then her appearance at military events is vital.
North Koreans have been taught for decades to believe that the Kims have supernatural powers - and it was only in 2020 that Kim Jong-un authorised an official newspaper to break it to credulous readers that he couldn't, in fact, bend space and time. The Kims claim to have what they call the 'Mount Paektu bloodline', linked to a mountain in the north of the country where Dangun, the spiritual founder of Korea - offspring of a god and a bear - was born. North Koreans have been brainwashed since the days of the first president, Kim Il-sung, into believing that the Kims' bloodline is 'sacred' and only their omnipotent dynasty can lead the country. Only a few weeks ago, it was 'beloved daughter' - but just days ago that was upgraded to 'respected daughter', an adjective normally reserved for Supreme Leaders and their spouses.ĭespite the regime's communist pretensions, in Pyongyang, power runs through one family. Kim Ju Ae, daughter of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, attends a military parade to mark the 75th founding anniversary of North Korea's army, at Kim Il Sung Square in Pyongyang, North Korea on February 8Īnd, while North Korea state media has never even confirmed Ju-ae's name, the changing adjectives it has applied to her - words which hold immense significance in North Korea's hierarchy - are being cited as further evidence that she has been chosen to succeed her father.
