Speculation surrounding Ju-Ae as a possible successor to her father Kim Jong-Un has increased sharply after several recent public appearances.

On Thursday, the North Korean dictator and his daughter took part in military exercises where they tested a new tank, according to state media. Pictures showed Kim on top of the tank while Ju-Ae looked out from a hatch. The exercises included armored units and rocket fire.

Ju-Ae was first seen in public in 2022, when she accompanied her father to a launch of an intercontinental ballistic missile.
