North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has selected his daughter as his heir, South Korea’s spy agency told lawmakers on Thursday.
Kim Ju Ae - who is believed to be 13 - has in recent months been pictured beside her father in high-profile events like a visit to Beijing in September, her first known trip abroad.
The National Intelligence Service (NIS) said it took a “range of circumstances” into account including her increasingly prominent public presence at official events" in making this assessment.

Hm, how much Power does a family have that is venerated like a god and that can order the assassination of family members on foreign soil? Surely the Kim’s and the Danish monarch are the same
Anyone with enough money can order assassination of anyone on any foreign soil. That isn’t really an argument.

Biden was the elected president of the US. He held power over political decisions, just like the Kims, but unlike the Danish Monarch. Kind of defeating your own argument here.
Lady Dee theories are interesting, haven’t read much about them.
