Recently, a 'new' close entourage of North Korean leader Kim Jong-un has appeared and is attracting attention, but the specific identity is unknown, raising curiosity.
This is the site of the Central Reporting Conference on the 15th, the 110th anniversary of the Day of the Sun.
A woman with short hair, who appears to be in her 30s or 40s, performs Chairman Kim at close range.
Previously, this woman was continuously spotted at events attended by Chairman Kim, such as the completion ceremony of a 10,000-family residence on Songhwa Street in Pyongyang on the 12th of this month and the completion ceremony of a high-end residential district along the Potong River on the 14th.
After this woman appeared, there is also an interpretation that she is taking over the role of Vice President Kim Yeo-jeong in that the frequency of performance of Vice-Director Kim Yeo-jeong has decreased.
It is also noteworthy that she is starting her official activities without wearing the Kim Il-sung/Kim Jong-il portrait badge.
In North Korea, Chairman Kim and his wife Ri Sol-ju are the only people who have appeared in public without wearing a portrait badge.
So far, the specific identity of the woman is unknown.
There is also speculation that she might be Kim Seol-song, the half-sister of Chairman Kim.
