N’Korea leader’s daughter believed to have younger sibling, South says

South Korea’s spy agency stated on Thursday that North Korean leader Kim Jong Un's daughter and apparent successor is believed to have a younger sibling. The assessment offers a more detailed view of the ruling family's structure, following previous intelligence indicating that Kim has three children.

While Seoul's agency has previously noted the existence of three children, uncertainty has persisted regarding their birth order. The leader's daughter, identified in reports as Kim Ju Ae, has increasingly appeared alongside her father at major political events since 2022, including a high-profile visit to Beijing.
