North Korea’s state run media has revealed that a ‘mystery woman’ pictured accompanying Kim this month is his wife, Ri Sol-ju.
According to a South Korean media report, Ri could be seen singing on video footage of a performance released by the North in February last year.

“There is a possibility Jong-un chose her as his wife after seeing her at the concert hall,” it quoted a source, as saying. The paper quoted another source, as saying that after marriage, Ri had undergone a six-month course in duties of a first lady at Kim Il-sung University, the nation`s most prestigious academic institution.
Another report by the Joong Ang Ilbo newpaper described Ri as a former singer who came to the young Kim`s notice during a performance.
It said Jong-un`s father had singled her out as first lady while he was working on his succession plan.
