Kim Ju Ae: North Korea leader Kim Jong Un chooses daughter as heir, Seoul says
www.bbc.com
South Korea's spy agency says Ki Ju Ae's prominent public presence indicates she is the chosen heir.

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has selected his daughter as his heir, South Korea’s spy agency told lawmakers on Thursday.

Kim Ju Ae - who is believed to be 13 - has in recent months been pictured beside her father in high-profile events like a visit to Beijing in September, her first known trip abroad.

The National Intelligence Service (NIS) said it took a “range of circumstances” into account including her increasingly prominent public presence at official events" in making this assessment.

    Biden was the elected president of the US. He held power over political decisions, just like the Kims, but unlike the Danish Monarch. Kind of defeating your own argument here.

    Lady Dee theories are interesting, haven’t read much about them.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assassination_of_Kim_Jong-nam Kim Jong-nam was a potential rival for the Throne and got killed for it. The Kims do hold the power in the DPRK.

      From your own article:

      It is widely believed that Kim Jong-nam was murdered on the orders of Kim Jong Un.

      So, it is not factually known who really killed him (rather on behalf of whom), but that’s enough to you to claim absolute power by the Kim family?

      I could mention the current old king of Spain (Juan Carlos the First) murdering his brother, does that prove absolute power by the Spanish monarchy?

      Also funny:

      At the time of his death, Kim’s backpack contained approximately $100,000 in cash

      I wonder where he would find that kind of American money
