NIS: Kim Ju-ae Solidifying Successor Status, Military Image
South Korea's National Intelligence Service (NIS) has assessed that Kim Ju-ae, daughter of North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, is further solidifying her position as the designated successor and is building a narrative around a military image, according to KBS World. The assessment was reported on October 29, 2026. Separately, the NIS also said Kim Jong-un may have communicated his intentions on North Korea-U.S. dialogue to China's leadership during his recent visit, as reported by KBS World on the same date. These reports come amid ongoing inter-Korean tensions, including North Korea's firing of an unidentified projectile toward the East Sea on October 29, as reported by Yonhap.
