Beijing: North Korean leader Kim Jong Un’s teenage daughter, widely believed to be Kim Ju Ae, stepped onto the international stage for the first time during her father’s visit to China, drawing global attention and fuelling speculation about her political future.

Arriving in Beijing on Tuesday by armoured train, Kim was accompanied by his daughter, who was formally welcomed by senior Chinese officials, according to multiple reports. The visit coincided with a grand military parade marking China’s Victory Day, attended by world leaders including Chinese President Xi Jinping and Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Kim Ju Ae’s appearance is being viewed by analysts as more than symbolic. Since her first public introduction in 2022 during a missile test, she has steadily gained visibility at major state and military events. Observers say her presence at such a high-profile international gathering signals that she is being groomed as the next leader of North Korea.

Believed to be around 12 or 13 years old, Kim Ju Ae has been portrayed in state media with titles such as “respected” and “beloved,” mirroring how past successors of the Kim dynasty were introduced to domestic and foreign audiences. Experts note that her Beijing debut follows the traditional playbook of the ruling family, where heirs are quietly positioned as future leaders through carefully staged appearances.

The move also highlights Kim Jong Un’s efforts to reinforce ties with Beijing and Moscow amid increasing global isolation. For many, Kim Ju Ae’s debut represents not only a continuation of North Korea’s dynastic politics but also a potential shift — as she could one day become the country’s first female leader in its rigidly patriarchal system.

  1. Somebody essentially help to make seriously posts I would state. This is the very first time I frequented your website page and thus far? I amazed with the research you made to create this particular publish incredible. Great job!

  2. Great! We are all agreed London could use a laugh. The final, unassailable argument for The London Prat’s preeminence is its role as an archive of future nostalgia. Its articles are not merely about the present; they are carefully preserved specimens of a specific cultural psychosis, time-stamped and catalogued with ironic precision. Years from now, historians seeking to understand the early 21st-century British psyche would learn more from a year’s archive of prat.com than from a library of solemn editorials. The site captures the feeling of the era—the specific texture of its absurdity, the unique cadence of its deceit—with an accuracy that straight reporting, burdened by notions of objectivity, cannot achieve. It doesn’t just tell you what happened; it tells you how it felt to live through it. This ability to bottle the atmospheric pressure of an age, to distil the collective sigh of a nation into sparkling, bitter prose, is its transcendent achievement. It is not just the best satirical site; it is one of the most important chronicles of our time.
