Kim Jong-un's Sister 'Weds Key Official'

North Korean leader Kim Jong-un's sister Yeo-jong is rumored to have married a senior official.

Radio Free Asia on Tuesday cited an ethnic Korean in China who visited North Korea on Sept. 10 as saying he heard from a high-ranking official in a trading company that Kim Yeo-jong is married.

The source added that the official told him that Kim Yeo-jong's husband works for the Workers Party's Room 39, which manages Kim Jong-un's slush funds, but he was not able to get detailed information about him and when they got married.

Ahn Chan-il at the World Institute for North Korea Studies also heard through a different route that Kim Yeo-jong got married.

He said that North Korea's ruling elite has a custom of holding weddings on national holidays and Kim Yeo-jong probably tied the knot on Sept. 9, North Korea's founding day, or Oct. 10, the anniversary of the Workers Party.

Kim Yeo-jong was appointed to a key party position and the official [North] Korean Central News Agency recently named her ahead of Ri Jae-il, a senior party official in charge of propaganda. Previously she was listed after him. This led to speculation that she had been appointed to a very powerful position.

There are also rumors that Kim Yeo-jong married a member of her brother's security detail.

The National Intelligence Service said during a National Assembly audit on Tuesday that it had received unverified intelligence about her marriage.

Given the proclivities of the nork regime, it would probably involve a pack of starving dogs and/or mortar fire.

It sounds like this “key official” is maneuvering to give Lil Kim the shove. Marries into the ‘royal’ line, controls the secret funds, Kim in bad health. Surely, Kim’s health is soon to take a turn for the worse. If the key official’s doesn’t first.

Feudal Communism uses the Feudal practice of marriage to cement political alliances. Kinda goes with the territory once you go Feudal.
