FAMILY FUN

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un brought his 10-year-old daughter, Kim Ju Ae, to a soccer game celebrating the birthday of his late father, state media said Saturday, Feb. 18, 2023, her latest in a series of public appearances that have triggered debate on whether she’s being prepped for a future leadership role. The official Korean Central News Agency said the presence of Kim and his “beloved” daughter brought “joy and excitement” to the ceremonial game between staff members from the Cabinet and the Defense Ministry on Friday, February 17. Photos published by North Korea’s official Rodong Sinmun newspaper showed Kim and his daughter smiling and clapping from the VIP seats, where they sat in the center between senior government and military officials. Kim Yo Jong, Kim’s sister and one of his top foreign policy officials, was seen sitting in a row behind them. The event marked the sixth known public appearance of Kim Ju Ae, but the first that wasn’t overtly related to her father’s nuclear arms ambitions. She was first shown on state media in November when Kim Jong Un brought her to observe a flight test of an intercontinental ballistic missile.
