North Korean leader Kim Jong Un's daughter, Ju Ae, made her first public visit to the Kumsusan Palace of the Sun mausoleum on New Year's Day, accompanied by her parents. This highly symbolic appearance, where she stood between Kim Jong Un and Ri Sol Ju, has intensified speculation among analysts and South Korea's intelligence agency that she is being groomed as the country's fourth-generation successor. Experts suggest the visit is a calculated move ahead of an upcoming party congress where her succession might be formalized, though her young age and lack of official position lead some to urge caution.
