South Korean intelligence has revealed that leader Kim Jong-un is taking steps to enhance his daughter's status as a potential political successor. Members of the South Korean parliament indicated that there is increasing evidence of his daughter participating in significant political activities, suggesting she is being groomed for a future leadership role. The National Intelligence Service of South Korea has noted her growing appearances alongside her father at high-profile events, signaling her potential entry into politics.

The parliament members expressed interest in monitoring whether Kim's daughter, believed to be Kim Ju-ae, will attend an upcoming meeting of the ruling Workers' Party and what formal position she might be offered. Reports also highlight her frequent appearances in state media alongside her father during inspections of military projects and weapon systems, which might indicate an active role in shaping North Korea's future.

As the 9th Workers' Party Congress approaches at the end of the month, it is anticipated to set forth key political goals for the coming years, including economic and foreign policy strategies. The potential formal introduction of Kim Ju-ae in this context could signal a significant shift in North Korea’s leadership dynamics, as her succession could redefine the leadership structure and political landscape of the country.
