South Korea's intelligence agency told lawmakers that North Korean leader Kim Jong-un's teenage daughter is being trained to run the country.

He addresses Ju-ae as 'respectful daughter' and 'beautiful child'. She first appeared in public less than two years ago. The National Intelligence Service (NIS) believed that Ju-ae was the successor. “Pyongyang is preparing to appoint Kim Ju-ae as its successor, which indicates that she is the most likely successor,” Lee told the media after the agency's briefing. The NIS also told lawmakers that Kim Jong-un is now extremely obese and weighs about 140 kilograms, putting him at risk of heart disease. Lee quoted the NIS as saying that Kim smokes cigarettes and also has high blood pressure and diabetes at the age of 30.
Some other candidates may also emerge
According to media reports, the NIS has not ruled out the possibility that another candidate may be involved in the succession plan. North Korea has not yet officially announced the succession. The NIS told lawmakers that the extent to which Ju-ae should be exposed to the public is also being discussed. He is also being monitored to see how the North Korean people react to his role as a potential successor.
Seen with her father in November 2022
Ju was first seen with her father in November 2022. She was seen holding her father's hand, walking near a nuclear-capable missile designed to destroy an American city. Since then, she has always been seen with her father at weapons training, government functions, and even sporting events. Kim's daughter's role in government propaganda shows people that another generation is waiting to carry on the dynasty and that it will depend on nuclear weapons for its survival. South Korea's spy agency has estimated her age to be around 11 years. She is believed to be the second of three children born to Kim and his wife Ri Sol.
One of Ju-ae's biggest moments came in February 2023, when she attended a banquet honoring the military with her mother and father. The photos put Ju-ae front and center with some of the most powerful members of the armed forces. No other child of the North Korean leader has ever been seen at such a young age.
The question of succession remains
Yet questions remain as to whether Kim Jong-Un has indeed decided to choose Jun as his successor. The daughter has not yet been formally identified in official media reports. Kim Jong-Un is relatively young at 40, so he could remain in power for decades. Although he is overweight, smokes and has health problems, inheritance is still a concern.
