April 15 is North Korea's Sun Festival, which commemorates the birthday of former leader Kim Il Sung and is one of the country's most important holidays. North Korean leader Kim Jong-un and his daughter Kim Joo-ae watched a sports match between cabinet and defense ministry staffers that day.
10-year-old North Korea's first thousand gold Kim Zhu Ai finally took off the previous heavy down jacket or fur, changed into a crisp and neat small suit, with a white shirt underneath, and changed to a kawaii's Qi bangs hairstyle, no longer overly pursuing mature styling, looking much cuter than before.
In the excitement of the game, Kim Jong-un couldn't close his mouth with joy, and Kim Joo-ae applauded with his fleshy little hands while looking at his father with adoring eyes, and his adoration for his father filled the screen.
Jin Zhuai, who is loved by thousands of people, looks more and more similar to her mother Li Xuezhu, with fleshy round cheeks, especially cute little tiger teeth, and a gentle temperament that is more and more similar on her body, which is simply a perfect "Little Li Xuelord".
Since Kim Joo-ae appeared, she seems to be able to pick a big beam and attend many important occasions instead of her mother Li Xuezhu, and now North Korea's first lady Yi Seol-ju has not even appeared as often as her daughter. At the same time, Kim Yo-jung, another powerful woman in North Korea, was also robbed of the limelight by her little niece.
This time watching the game, Kim Yo-jung did not sit in the front position again, but was arranged in the back, but compared with the last Starlight Festival watching game, Kim Yo-jung's treatment was significantly improved.
The last time was on February 17 this year, when Kim Jong-un held an athletics competition between the cabinet and the Ministry of Defense to commemorate the birth of his father, Kim Jong-il (Starlight Day).
At that time, Kim and Jung were sitting alone on the very side, looking unsocial; Although this time is still behind, the position is much closer to Kim Jong-un's father and daughter.
Does this mean that the power struggle between Li Xuezhu and Jin Hezheng's sister-in-law has eased to a certain extent?
On April 16, the day after the Sun Festival, Kim Jong-un took his wife Lee Seol-ju, his sister Kim Yo-jung, and others to visit the Splendid Mountain Sun Palace where Kim Il-sung and Kim Jong-il's bodies are located.
Li Xuezhu wore a light-colored dress with high heels, and his round face looked very rich and blessed; Kim Yo Jong-jae is wearing a domineering black suit, also wearing high heels, holding his head high, full of aura.
According to Korean media reports, Kim Jong-un broke the convention this time and did not choose to visit the Splendid Mountain Sun Palace where the remains of his grandfather and father are buried on the day of the Sun Festival, but chose to go the next day.
South Korean analysts see this as evidence that power in North Korea has been completely transferred to Kim Jong-un. In other words, Kim Jong-un had a weak power base in the early days of his administration, and had to rely on the aura of previous leaders such as Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il, but now he has completely grasped the power and no longer needs to rely on the authority of his ancestors and parents.
Some South Korean observers believe that "North Korea is using propaganda to gradually shift the focus of its idolization to Kim Jong-un himself, the 'living force,' rather than deceased ancestors such as Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il," and hopes that "this trend will continue in the future." ”
Kim Joo-ae and Kim Jong-un look very similar, and she also has the same sweet smiling face as Li Xuezhu, very down-to-earth and very likable.
Younger sister Kim Yo-jung, although it turned out to be a very favored North Korean first thousand gold, but there is always a sense of distance from ordinary people, and the appearance of Kim Joo-ae can make people like the first family of North Korea more and more.
Now that his wife Ri Seol-ju has been reduced to a decoration, and his younger sister Kim and Jeong-sung are supporting roles, only his daughter Kim Joo-ae is the most suitable propagandist candidate, representing the booming future of North Korea.
