In a first, North Korean leader Kim Jong-un's daughter appears publically, see here

Kim Jong-un has been secretive about his personal life but recently his daughter made a rare public appearance and confirmed long-rumoured reports of her existence.

Body: North Korea's supreme leader Kim Jong-un made a public appearance with his daughter for the first time on November 18. It is notable that although there was no public confirmation about Kim's young daughter until now, there have been talks about her existence for a long time.

The girl is believed to be named Kim Chu-ae. Kim and his daughter appeared together during the inspection of an intercontinental ballistic missile launch. The photos from the event showed the pair hand-in-hand during the test.


Interestingly, the revelation of Kim Jong's daughter has grabbed more headlines than North Korea's successful launch of an intercontinental ballistic missile that is said to be able to hit the United States. North Korean analysts have linked her public appearance with the future of the country's regime.


According to a North Korean expert, Michael Madden, Chu-ae's appearance could be a way of Kim asserting that the leadership of the totalitarian state would pass through his bloodline. Madden also believes that Kim's daughter could be between 12 and 13 years old.

Chu-ae's existence was first mentioned in 2013 when American basketball star Dennis Rodman stated that he had spent time with the North Korean leader's family, including their daughter.

Experts say Kim Jong-un may have three children, including a boy and two girls. Chu-ae is supposed to be the oldest one. However, no official confirmation has been made in this regard, as Kim is highly secretive about his personal life.
