North Korea has once again revealed the appearance of Kim Joo-ae, the daughter of Kim Jong-un.
Unlike last time, this time she is dressed up to resemble her mother Ri Seol-ju, which seems to be the intention of continuing to use her daughter for Kim Jong-un's public activities in the future.
This is reporter Bae Jun-woo.

Last time I introduced it as 'my dear son', but this time it was changed to an extremely respectful title.
The appearance has also completely changed.
She looked like a schoolboy at the launch on the 18th, but this time she wore a black coat with her hair styled like an adult woman.

She looks very similar to her mother Ri Sol-ju, but a commander-level soldier bows her upper body toward Kim Joo-ae and shakes her hand.
It is analyzed that Kim Joo-ae focused on directing her authority as her Baekdu lineage beyond the image of her young daughter.
North Korea, which has judged that it has a significant effect on improving the image of Kim Jong-un as a stable leader, is expected to frequently appear in the future of Kim Jong-un and her daughter.
However, experts believe that Kim Ju-ae is unlikely to be included in her successor list.

Kim Jong-un, who took a number of commemorative photos in front of the Hwasong-17, highly praised his achievements in the launch, and also made a large-scale promotion of military officers.
