The mysterious woman who comes to North Korean leader is his wife

The mystery has filled pages of newspapers and magazines around the world on the identity of the girl who in recent weeks has repeatedly appeared next to the North Korean leader, Kim Jong-un, has been resolved. This is not your sister, as some believed, or his lover, as others thought, but his wife, as confirmed on Wednesday the North Korean television. "While being performed a welcome song, the supreme leader of our party and our people, Marshal Kim Jong-un, left a completion ceremony (of an amusement park) with his wife, Comrade Ri Sun-ju" , said the official network. It is unclear when they married, but television showed the couple several times recently. Sun-ju Ri has short hair, dressed in an elegant and sober and has about twenty or treintitantos years. On July 8, the same young man whose name has now transcended accompanied Kim Jong-un to pay their respects to the embalmed body of Kim Il-sung, founder of North Korea and grandfather of current leader, on the anniversary of his death in 1994. It has also been seen with him enjoying a show with characters from Walt Disney, Frank Sinatra  My way and a cover of the movie Rocky . The younger Kim studied in Switzerland. Some newspapers in South Korea had suggested that the mysterious companion was Hyon Song-wol, a famous singer who was rumored to be the mistress of the leader. According to some reports, Hyon disappeared from public view in 2006, but was seen again on television in March.There is a singer in North Korea called Ri Sun-ju, but has not been confirmed if the same person is the wife of Kim Jong-un, as the BBC BBC. The South Korean agency Yonhap said it was "very likely" that she was the wife of the leader, given the codes of protocol and its place in the table and the arrangement of the dishes. But some analysts had been assured otherwise, arguing that there was likely to be the companion of Kim because it is tradition in North Korea that first ladies appear in public with the leaders. What is clear from these discrepancies is the lack of information flowing about what happens in the most isolated country in the world. Hence any move and decision in the environment of Kim Jong-un is dissected to try to find the direction of North Korea possessing nuclear weapons. The differences also suggest that something is moving in the Asian country. The president's public appearances with his wife make a big difference in the style of his father, Kim Jong-il, whose 17 years in office were marked by secrecy. Their partners and their children were not mentioned by the official media, and e l own Kim Jong-un , who holds a similar amazement with his grandfather Kim Il-sung, was virtually unknown until it was presented to the world in late 2010. The new leader on Sunday dismissed last week by Vice Marshal Ri Yong-ho, head of the powerful North Korean army and a man close to Kim Jong-il, reportedly for health reasons. Replaced it Hyon Yong-chol.Then the self-Kim Jong-un was appointed marshal, the highest ranking military officer in the country. These movements have been seen as further steps to strengthen their power. Kim Jong-un also holds the address of the Workers' Party of Korea, the president of the Central Military Commission and first president of the National Defense Commission, which is eternal president Kim Jong-il.
