CCTV News: According to the KCNA report on June 4, on june 3, North Korean supreme leader Kim Jong-un and his wife Lee Seok-joo watched a large-scale group exercise and art performance "People's Country" in Pyongyang.
North Korea has a tradition of organizing large-scale group exercises, and the large-scale group exercise "Arirang", which has been recorded in the Guinness Book of World Records with the number of participants, is one of the representative works of North Korean group exercises. In 2018, to celebrate the 70th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, The DPRK created a large-scale group exercise and art performance called "Brilliant Motherland", reflecting the achievements made by the DPRK in various fields since the founding of the People's Republic of China.
According to Xinhua News Agency, the event on the 3rd was unprecedented. After nightfall, a group of drones flew over the May Day Stadium, forming a blue-red North Korean flag pattern and the words "People's Country" in Korean, opening the curtain on the performance. In the one-and-a-half-hour performance, tens of thousands of North Korean actors performed various forms such as gymnastics, dance, vocal music, and acrobatics, showing the historical picture of the Korean revolution and war, political and army building, people's livelihood and economic development, and foreign exchanges.
A set of pictures released by North Korean state media shows that Lee Seok-ju, as the first lady, sat on the right hand side of Kim Jong-un in a dark coat. Kim Jong-un's left-hand position was given to Lee Wan-kyun, who had just become a member of the North Korean State Council in April. Kim Jong-un's sister Kim Yo-jong is next to Lee Seo-joon, and this time Kim Yo-jong's appearance is slightly different from the past: she changed her previous capable hairstyle, spread her hair all over, and put on a hair band, and the way she rolled her sleeves to her elbows made the whole person look very capable.

On July 26, 2012, the KCNA official website mentioned Kim Jong-un's name twice when he reported his visit to the Ayala People's Amusement Park, translating his wife's Chinese name as "Lee Seok-joo." On the same day, the KCNA website also published 39 pictures of Kim Jong-un inspecting the amusement park, including many pictures of Kim Jong-un and his wife inspecting together, and an intimate group photo of Lee Seok holding Kim Jong-un's arm.
On July 25, 2012, Li Xueju attended the completion ceremony of the Ayala People's Amusement Park in Pyongyang.
As one of Kim Jong-un's most trusted people, Kim Yo-jong has accompanied Kim Jong-un on various important occasions inside and outside North Korea. On March 9, 2014, Kim Yo-jong made his first "official appearance" on North Korea's state television report, when Kim Jong-un was elected as the acting mp for the 111th Baekdusan constituency with 100 percent support, and for the first time Kim Yo-jong, known as "Comrade," appeared in the report and played a "close-up" of her vote. After that, kim yo jong's figure can always be seen in the activities of Kim Jong Un reported by the Dprk state media, from watching performances, to inspecting factories and museums, to inspecting troop training activities, and always finding Kim Yo Jong's name in the list of accompanying people.

Judging from the relevant information released by the media, although Lee Seo-joo, Kim and Jeong are well-known women in North Korea, and the sister-in-law and sister-in-law have repeatedly appeared in North Korea's newspapers and periodicals, it is not common to be reported at the same time in one event due to their different "roles".
