  • She's probably the most powerful woman in North Korea: Kim Yo Jong, the dictator’s younger sister. She’s viewed as an emotionless and shrewd strategist for her brother, the North Korean ruler Kim Jong Un. But just who is the "Red Princess"?
    Kim Jong Un’s rise began in 2011 when their father, the North Korean leader Kim Jong Il died at the age of 69. His death triggered emotional scenes including, at the funeral, that of a weeping woman who captured the attention of her country and the entire world: Kim Yo Jong.
    This was Kim Yo Jong’s first official appearance alongside her brother Kim Jong Un, the new Supreme Leader of North Korea. Within a decade, Kim Yo Jong became the second highest ranking person in the Pyongyang regime and thereby her brother’s potential successor.
    Kim Yo Jong holds a multifaceted political role: on the one hand, she knows where and when to deploy her charm -- such as on a visit to South Korea in 2018. But she also issues warnings against the "imperialists” of Seoul and Washington. The documentary examines the personality and the career of the "Red Princess”. It also takes a current look behind the scenes of this totalitarian regime. The nuclear power is mired in a crisis that originated at the outset of the Cold War.

    Years ago i saw an interview with another reporter who was in North Korea when the leader died in 2011. She was supposed to be at the procession but thankfully "warned" to be sick that day. Why? She was informed that cameras would be recording the crowd for signs of disrespect to the dear leader. In other words, she better be able to cry hysterically for hours or face "corrective actions"!! She later reported after LEAVING north Korea that hundreds of mourners "disappeared" for "insincere grief"!! Imagine being killed cause you couldn't cry for hours on demand.

    Her being a tiny lady makes her more terrifying to me. You look at her and you’re disarmed. If you didn’t know better, you’d think she was a strict parent at best. But in reality, she holds a terrifying amount of power. She can’t take you physically, but she doesn’t have to. All she has to do is raise an eyebrow, look at a guard, say a word, and you are DEAD.
    I also find it fascinating that a country so patriarchal is perfectly fine with her. Obviously, anyone who speaks against her is dead, but I still find it incredible that her brother is confident in her to the point that she can stand in for him at events.

      If they do not publicly cry they will be severely punished. Seeing the dramatic greiving with the body and arm flaying gives the people a sense of unease because they know that their outpouring of grief is watched and scrutinized. Just how many were arrested because they didn’t cry hard enough or didn’t or couldn’t shed tears? This is a very dangerous place for North Koreans. They deserve a better safe and secure existence than this.

    You can tell by her mannerisms that she is cold, calculating, & extremely intelligent. Probably the most intelligent in the family. Sitting behind the scenes & soaking all the political & economical knowledge. Waiting for her moment to take over the regime. We thought her brother or predecessors were heartless. This woman gives me chills. Near the end of this documentary they described her as timid. There’s nothing that strikes me as timid about her. In fact I wouldn’t be surprised if she’s more maniacal & methodical. I already assume she’s the brains behind everything that has happened since her brother took office. If this woman.. wait.. when this woman takes office the world better be prepared because she doesn’t strike me as “nice” as her brother, which says a lot.
    Lastly with all that said she is a very interesting person where you want to know more but know we probably will only know what SHE wants us to know. I have respect for her in that regard. She doesn’t show her hands to anybody. Not even her family.
    Edit: I’m not making wild accusations. I have a degree in Psychology & have researched body language nuances. Not saying I’m a master at either skill BUT I have the skill sets I feel appropriate to justify my interpretations.

    She's obviously highly intelligent. She is competent enough to rise in power beside her brother, but submissive enough to give him a lot of deference to show that he's the boss and that she would never try to take that from him. It's a careful line, but she walks it well. When you look at what happened to their uncle, the stakes are very high.
    She is every bit a person who is fully in control, but the reason she has so much trust and power is because she presents herself as someone who has no designs on her brother.

    Everyone in the comment section villainizing her aren't thinking about what life she was born into and what is expected of her. I'd assume she's expected to be soft in the eyes of the public and in a room full of men, but HARD towards everyone else. Her eyes say she has seen and done some things no one ever should have to witness or be forced to do. If you're born into that family, you survive by doing what's expected of you or die; there's no other option

    The way she composed herself at the Seoul Airport with her neck out, it's like she's openly showing herself knowing that whatever anyone does or tries to do to her, they won't get away with it. When you enter a room, you look around to see if there is any threat present. She enters the conference room without looking, so she knows that the room, or South Korea, isn't threatening at all and she is the one in power.

      Honestly, those who you do not fear are the scariest. In art and design, rounder shapes invoke a less threatening feeling rather than those that are sharp. Think of the Bio hazard symbol or the nuclear symbol. Humans are not geometrical shape and Jung Un to me is more of a menace.

      A lot of people believe that Kim Yo-Jong is the next in line for the throne in North Korea; I however am rather skeptical about this because she's a woman and North Korea is a patriarchal society. However I find it deeply disturbing that people on the Internet have developed "crushes" on Kim Yo-Jong and call her a girl boss.

    So... Why is everybody talking about her as if she were some type of "higher" being? "I can see how she scans the room, impressive," "she's so smart, clearly she commands North Korea." It doesn't seem like that to me at all. She actually really does look like a scared person trying to impersonate someone confident. She acts so secretive, almost robot-like, because she is terrified of making a mistake. Don't romanticize them, she's a trained official under strict control.

    • @jalsol
