""This is not a judgment based on mere circumstantial evidence, but on intelligence information," said NIS Director Lee Jong Seok, indicating a firm stance on Kim Ju Ae's succession."
"The assessment marks a sharper stance from the agency, which has been tracking succession signals in Pyongyang, with Kim Ju Ae appearing close to being formally designated as successor."
"Kim Ju Ae, dubbed by state media as Kim's 'most beloved' child, has been photographed in military settings, solidifying her position as a potential leader."
"Despite speculation about her influence, the NIS downplayed the political power of Kim Yo Jong, indicating a shift in focus towards Kim Ju Ae."
South Korea's National Intelligence Service has identified Kim Jong Un's daughter, Kim Ju Ae, as a likely political successor. This assessment is based on intelligence information rather than circumstantial evidence. Kim Ju Ae has been seen accompanying her father at various official events, including military settings. The NIS has also downplayed the political influence of Kim Yo Jong, Kim's sister. Despite her prominence, little is known about Kim Ju Ae, including her age, which is estimated to be around 13 or 14 years old.
