Facts about Kim Jong Un's Daughter Kim Jong Un's daughter first appeared in public in November 2022 when she accompanied him to the launch of the intercontinental missile "Hwasong-17." The media described her as "the beloved daughter," but her name remained unknown until recently.
Interestingly, Kim Jong Un's name also went unmentioned for a long time until he was introduced as a potential successor in 2010.
It was recently reported that North Korea conducted its first ballistic missile tests in 2026, targeting the Sea of Japan. Last year, Kim Jong Un, along with his daughter, attended an airshow organized to celebrate the 80th anniversary of the DPRK Air Force.
