North Korea's supreme leader Kim Jong Un has systematically erased his mother Ko Yong-hui from public record, as her Japanese-born origins could undermine the regime's nationalist legitimacy.

North Korea's Kim Jong Un personally oversaw ballistic missile tests and demanded enhanced strike capabilities along the inter-Korean border, escalating regional tensions.

South Korea's spy agency suspects Kim Jong-un's daughter, 13, may soon be named as North Korea's next leader, sustaining the Kim dynasty.
