NIS: Kim Ju-ae Solidifying Successor Status with Military Image

South Korea's National Intelligence Service (NIS) assessed that Kim Ju-ae, daughter of North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, is further solidifying her position as the designated successor and building a narrative as a military leader, according to KBS World on October 29. The assessment came amid reports that Kim Jong-un may have conveyed intentions on potential talks with the U.S. during his recent China visit, as Yonhap and Korea Times reported the same day. The NIS's view highlights the regime's focus on bolstering Kim Ju-ae's public role, though specific details of her military-related activities were not disclosed in the reports.
