hahah o lord, next is they'll be pressing the launch button together, and shell have 10 holes in one in a 9 holes, following her gpas steps

American Families: we are going to DISNEY LAND!!!
Kim Jong Un: We are going to a MISSLE LAUNCH!!!
Pretty cool thing to be taken to by your Dad tbh
Kim Jong Un: wanna see Disneyland vaporize?
Jong un’s brother did went to disney land
To be fair, if someone offered to me to go watch some missiles take off, I would do it, cause that’s cool
Maybe she will be next in line. Un's sister is pretty powerful in the Party. Stuff changes. Good for them, if so
Ah yes, classical politicians with kids performance acting and photoshoots.
Bruh I see you everywhere
Then again, doesn't exactly 'have' to be acting. No way those rich dictators living in luxury don't spoil their own kids to death.
@@nihilisthuman6784To death, you say?
Exactly.. typical pr stunts.. also if you have to do a pr stunts for something it's most probably a lie but since these images manipulate us into believing that it can never be the other way around no one actually believes this as pr stunts
@@nihilisthuman6784Hitler was a terrible dad according to his supposed son
PSA that Stalin's daughter Svetlana hated her dad. Her dad was the reason her mom killed herself when Svetlana was 6 and she never fully recovered from that.
She moved to the United States lol
Which is weird to me because she was stalin's favorite child
@@cb41503 that doesn’t mean that he was a good dad to her. He was a hot headed and manipulative leader of an authoritarian country…
@@cb41503 My mom tells me all the time im her favorite and that my kid her fsvorite grandkid and my grandma always says I have a special bond with her. Meanwhile I'm the only kid who refuses to speak to her. Its odd the way parents pick their "favorites" sometimes.
@@cb41503 I'm my dad favorite child but I don't like him 😒
Wow, he seems like such a good, caring father! Surely he’s never done anything bad.
Surely.
I thought you were serious for a sec...
Just for the show
It is meant to send the message "you want to be apart of my family"
If you look closely, you can see that this man has a pure heart
Well, we know one family that’s eating in North Korea
dead wrong
@@ashleytownsend1073
Explain..
The dictator and his family are eating. Look at them. Tell me I am wrong.
@@ashleytownsend1073 I've met north koreans... trust me most of them are skinny.. and some are starving.
@@LordS20000south koreans are skinny too, it's a diet and culture thing. The north Korean famine was directly related to the dissolution of the USSR, it's not really a thing now. There's still subsistence agriculture there though I think which can cause starvation due to crop failures etc and their land is famously not arable (all the arable land is in the south) but that isn't helped by all the sanctions limiting their economic growth.
Given that his sister is 2nd in command in NK seems Kim Jong Un might have a more modern view of women in leadership roles.
As long as they do what he says...
It’s true that he has a strong relationship with his sister and she is the de facto second in command, but with such an intense patriarchal system such as that of North Korea’s, if she were to become supreme leader, she would most likely be more of a figurehead. Kim Jong Un has formally executed, killed, or surpassed for leadership all of the men around him. He was chosen over his own full brother by his father to become the leader and has executed and killed two of his half brothers. She is, essentially, the last one standing and could be chosen, if he dies, to be the leader because bloodline may be stronger than the patriarchy. But she would also not be as trusted by everyone else as she is by Kim Jong Un.
@@ana_tibs007 ...That you Kim?
Jokes aside, that's a strong analysis. Thanks. Do you just follow Korean politics or write a paper recently? Well informed it would seem.
@@batbee7427 Hahahaha. I enjoy researching things and did a lot of random research on it once right after she was announced as the “secondary” leader by NK. There’s a lot of articles deep diving into the generation of men from the Kim bloodline that are very interesting.
The only reason his sister is still around is Because he's confident she won't replace him. He put out a hit on his brother to ensure he wouldn't be replaced.
this is like those influencers that bring/show their dog in an apology video so that they get more sympathy points
What does Kim have to apologize for?
Exactly. Or the influencers who profit off putting their children on antisocial media.
Yes I believe you're right. It's just for show but I do think she is the favorite kid. She's very adorable btw
She is pretty❤
She's literally him with long hair😶
@@Kj16V I thought I was the only one who saw that
I wonder what her life must be like
Ew
Okay no matter how evil he is, his daughter is adorable
yeah, that’s the point of putting her in the public eye.
I think she's a mini me.
😅
Until kim passed away and her daughter become another dictator
(But in all seriousness who knows that Kim's daughter would be stop the dictatorship.....MAYBE)
The devil vs it's offspring, big difference (I hope so in the future)
I don't speak Korean, so correct me if I'm wrong, but Korean has 8 simple vowels (monophthongs). Latin only had 5, so when transcribing in that writing system, some vowel letters are combined to represent simple vowels even though they are not diphthongs. For Ju-ae, it is a sound closer to Spanish /a/ nad Spanish /e/, and it appears in the English word "hair". It is not an /ai/ diphthong. I understand the sound must have come from English speaker pronunciation of Taekwondo, however that word's pronunciation by English speakers is nowhere close to how it's pronounced in Korean
it's amazing how you described this, i love linguistics and this is excellent as im slowly learning korean! i was a bit put off by that pronunciation. also, cool that u used the a in "hair" as an example! i would've struggled to think of one.
You're correct. Ae in her new sounds closer to "ai" in hair and "a" an navy as pronounces in standard American English
You right ~ ju 'ae' is similar with (hair) or (hey) not (hi)
The rest of the country is starving but they seem to be getting plenty to eat.
Exactly
Judge not KAREN! WWJD????
Same with America... More homeless in America than some nations entire populations... Yet you have obsesity and fenty? EXPLAIN!
@@stickynorth what are you? A wu mao?
She'd better not try to visit Tokyo Disneyland. 😅
Yep, it’s to remind everyone: “I’m just like you even though I am merciless.”
I'm gonna say it
I don't care, I'm gonna say it
She's adorable
There’s a reason why these government systems are called “paternalistic.”
Our country does the same thing, misdirection away from what they are doing.
Im more worried about the bad things my own country is doing
Gotta say she is absolutely adorable!
Or perhaps she's just old enough to be more public. It's the same with some celebrities and politicians
Ae (애) is not pronounced “Eye”. Cut and paste this to Google Translate to sound it out: 김주애
It worked on me, i forgot who he was and what he's done because of the "beautiful bond between a father and a daughter"
He should share his "Honey-pot" with Winnie pooh (Xi Jinping)....!!!😃😄😁😆😅😂🤣
It always rings strange with me that the things we accuse north Korea of doing, are all things we accept that America does do openly.
imagine using america to get traction because you have no relevance in real life 😹😹😹
@@trashcan7140imagine commenting on a half year old comment expecting to be noticed

The right pronounciation is [ Kim Ju - eh ] not [ ju -ai]
Yeah, that's the thing to focus on here... Not the thousands dead and/or missing...
W H O C A R E S
@@batbee7427 its not something to focus on, but vox is ultimately an education/current affairs channel and should take the effort to pronounce things correctly. you can point out a mispronunciation and still understand the severity of the situation in nk
@@batbee7427yeah it’s important. Nobody needs their cultural identity misunderstood
I hope Kims daughter has different opinions then him
I dont have high hopes since shes being raised in that environment. But maybe we'll be lucky
If she does we won’t be seeing any more of her, though.
That's exactly why he's doting on her, so she doesn't get different opinions.
Interesting that I’ve heard this perspective only from Vox, it makes a lot more sense than the “successor” theory which I’ve heard from a handful of other news outlets. Great vid!
Ngl his daughter got some drip
Right that’s what I was focused on 😂😂
I thought they misspelled teen. turned out tween is a real word :)
Yes, it's another word for preteen

He's just trying to prepare his daughter to be the next leader
It looks like she's eating a lot better than the rest of the North Koreans.
Obviously
Okay no need to pick on her. Her father is obviously a monster and deserves to get kicked to the curb and thrown behind bars. But shes just a kid, she can't control anything that happens there. Blame Kim Jong Un, not Kim Ju Ae.
@@jedijournal9159no, she just looks chubbier than literal skeletons
@@jedijournal9159 You'll call her innocent while shes still a child and then call her a monster when she reaches adulthood.
I heard from the youther fascinator that that's backfiring on Kimg Jong Un since the country's mad his daughter's doing so well while their own kids are starving and unhealthy.
If Kim got a dollar for every time the media talked about him the DPRK would be the wealthiest state on earth lol
Not as rich as you'd think, but it would work quite nicely towards digging themselves out of their isolationist poverty.
@@normanclatcher North Korea is perfectly justified in its military policy.
i was thinking "aww shes adorable what a cutie" and then the reason was revealed and i just ... 😥
Couldn't possibly just be that she's interested in her father's job and that they like spending time together.
think its pronounced more like kim ju eh
He can pass his throne to his daughter. That's literally a monarchy.
Wait. You didn't realize that? Since Kim Jong Ill is the father of Kim Jong Un while Kim ill Sung is the father of Kim Jong Ill? You never figured that out?
i think it already was
I have feeling there's going to be a mega inheritance fight between the evil aunt and the sly daughter one day
Lets not forget that KJU died in January 2020 and was replaced by a body double.
She threw a tantrum in the palace that she wanted to go to work with me so i brought here there
I can see the family resemblance
The fact that they were talking about dictators and they randomly add a picture of Che! He was not a dictator 😂😂
The heart of a father is the masterpiece of Nature...
♥️
“A major departure from the past” yeah they’ve only had 3 other leaders. I’d hardly call that a huge past
Ngl, I didn’t even know he had a kid
He has 3 kids
Famously, American, British, French, German leaders...
Never pictured with their daughters...
Stellar "journalism"
So I heard that North Korea basically exists on top of oil, and some rare minerals. Is this why Korea needs democracy sponsored by the USA?
Her name is not pronounced like the i in Hi, it is pronounced like the ey in Hey. kim ju-ey not kim ju-i
At least he has a decent kid. Imagine Biden bringing his son to white house. Again.
She may soon think the red nuclear button is the video game...God forbid
It's his way of telling everyone, "It works!"
hold on a second, vox is based in a country that dropped bio weapons on north korea. we should be a little skeptical about this, and they have good reasons to isolate from the west
Why are you putting castro here?
Why not?
@@hitchcocksbrunette castro was a revolutionary leader who saved his country from American imperialism
@@gogodaal7273 that doesn't mean anything... he was still an authoritarian ruler
@@gogodaal7273 “a revolutionary leader” that ruled for several decades and got sick so asked his brother to take his place and rule😂 that’s the opposite of revolutionary, don’t you think?
he was actually both authoritarian and a person who saved people from Americans imperialism
She probably keeps her head on swivel looking out for auntie
POV Kim jong un when shes 17: WERE GOING TO WAR-
There is zero food insecurity in the Jong Un family judging from those pictures.
the only two that have proper breakfast, lunch and dinner in North Korea
hopefully she is the next leader. abd hopefully she is an actual good leader
She’s well fed like her dad is that’s for sure
Well, he's running out of family members...he keeps having them killed, executed, and assassinated...it does leave you with fewer, and fewer options.
Dad and daughter eat well while the rest of the country starves
Wrong, nobody is starving.
@@CommunistBotBRUH WUT? DID YOU ESCAPE NORTH KOREA WITH THAT KNOWLEDGE?? A SURVIVOR!!! I THOUGHT FATMAN KILLED ANYONE WHO STEPPED AN INCH PAST THE BORDER!!!
@@CommunistBotwhat?!?!
@@annaroy-uq6wp Malnutrition deaths per 100,000 population is 1.25, which is lower than Chile and France. So either all the 92 countries with higher malnutrition death rate are all in a state of constant starvation, or north Korea ain't as bad as Yeonmi Park says it is.
@@CommunistBot iOut of a total population of approximately 22 million, somewhere between 240,000 and 3,500,000 North Koreans died from starvation or hunger-related illnesses
FYI the “Ae” in her name is pronounced as a short “e” sound or “ea” in “bread,” not like “eye.”
She might be the hope
maybe he loves his daughter "shocker"
He can. Kim Jong Un is human, he loves, he is probably not a sociopath. It is amazing how a possibly loving father and a functioning person with empathy can starve and oppress his people with no remorse.
Poor kid she doesn’t deserve parents like this
they are adorable together. he loves her and he def loves her too. maybe he just loves his kid and wanted to show her how powerful her dad is because he feels proud. things can be that simple even with a bad man. bad men arent always hard hearted
Stalin seems like an extremely good example of a father.
How is this any different than us president’s photo ops?
I think the US hides its torture of its citizens an eensy weensy bit better
You mean Joe Potato with the Easter Bunny?
The messaging is similar. It's just visual rhetoric. It doesn't mean the pres is a dictator. Mayors do this. Realtors. Business owners in their commercials, etc.
It's the ebul "thoritarians" doing it instead of our good, Western, "democratic" leaders.
well the us presidents don’t hide their children rather they are seen as a family more often as opposed to this specific situation where she has been out of the public eye and just came back and is seen with him. hope this helps you understand.
If he is removed or replaced it would mostly his sister to take his place
.and she is worst than him
Why's that? I remember everyone saying this when people thought Kim Jong Un was dying back at the start of the pandemic (all those fancams of his sister on Twitter were the weirdest timeline) but I never knew why, what has she done? How can someone be worse than Kim Jong-Un?
.
@@ginandromeda1618 She is more radical. She had the strains in her hand when Kim Jong Un was sick with COVID and she didn't hesitate to execute a couple hundred people until Kim came back.
nyet. you're completely wrong. don't take your lesson from youtube graduates.
@@ginandromeda1618 she seems smart thats way worse. kim seems like a scared clueless child who has no real ideas
Even authoritarians live their kids. Well not all of them, poor Eric.
Across time and space? This isn’t a sci fi. Just say throughout history.
Since when was Castro an authoritative dictator?
He was amazing
He was not? What was he then?
@@cascadia6260 what do you know? You’re not Cuban
when was he not an authoritative dictator?
well we have had presidents with barely any ability to rule and yet get blamed for everything wrong with the world and called dictators just because they are black, so maybe peoples perceptions of leadership and authoritarianism are different.
Calls castro authorian is the most American thing ever xD
pretty sure when you suppress the opposition and send them to prison your a dictator
Won't someone PLEASE think of the poor plantation owners and US fruit companies???
I mean, he was the sole leader of Cuba, a one-party state - until his death - and who also almost shut off the country completely, that sounds pretty authoritarian to me
@@curple3 america shut of cuba bro 60 years of trade embargo
@@curple3 in which case you don't know what authoritarian even means
He's still a monster
Daughter inherited father's appetite
Bruh.. She got the head shape like Thomas the tank engine lol
Don't bully the kid for the actions of her father. If she makes the same decisions when she grows up, go for it but for now she literally hasn't done anything wrong.
Fidel Castro isn’t a dictator
yes he was
@@sithlord5149 no, he was a leader that got placed by the democratic power of the proletariat and is widely popular in Cuba along with communism more generally. Cuba has some of the most verifiable democracy, actually following though with the definition, for once in the west it seems; Ex. Cuban’s get to democratically amend their constitution. Considering cooperate influence and the trash heep we call our congress and senate, no wonder nothing of usefulness to the sake of societal sake gets done. And yet Biden quotes Cuba’s performance as a failure, like many misguided neoliberals like yourselves do, without looking at your own many multiple shortcomings
@Comrade Gaming and so is Batista when Castro and the Cuban people overthrew him. So long for calling US intervention a ‘savior of arising democracy and freedom’ 😂
@Comrade Gaming sry
@@waspwrap1235Yes, Batista was a dictator. So was Castro. Not mutually exclusive
Ah yes Fidel Castro very authoritarian
He... literally was. Not as mad evil as America pretends but he was a dictator
@@osheridan yeah, very authoritarian to have more representatives in parliement than any so called free country. a country that recently had a referendum to pass one of the most progressive lgbt legislatures in the world. very authoritarian!!
@@PeidosFTW My brother in Christ, you do realise that all openly LGBT people were sent to camps under Castro?
@@osheridanIf Castro was a dictator, then that must make Biden a super mega dictator
Try not paying your federal income taxes in the US and see how free you actually are.
"Extra judicial killing"
Murder.
She is likely the shield
To distract. Attract any attacks. And to protect his real heir
actually Kim's sister rules the roost
No he does
No, she is just awful and have a lot of power.
No, Kim himself is still the ruler who calls the shots hut his sister is theorized to be a close second in terms of how much power
You better hope that Kim Jong-Un doesn't know where you live
If this guys spends time with his daughter the American press says it’s because he’s evil. If he didn’t spend time with her they’d say it’s because he’s evil 😂
Can we all agree she been fed well while everyone else is starving like dam lol
couldn't help but slip that Fidel Castro one in, can't be too based after that Nakba vid huh lol
I know, right?
American media always needs to slide in some anti communism, no matter how left wing it may appear as
I love how countless of people are heavily invested on the relationship between a leader of another country and his daughter. It's simple. His daughter is finally old enough to understand everything his dad does and as the next leader, Kim Jong Un is exposing her to the people of the country
*her dad
I wonder if she would take out Kim jun Ae for head of state if the chance came.
america committed actual genocide against korea in the 50s so of course they would have no incentive to be dishonest about how they run things
Its like with Americas presidents, its like you cant win if you don't have a wife and family
I'm going to believe that Kim Jung UN is just a loving father.
hear me out, he doesn't have policial rivales..so why would he seek "status" with what you're claiming..
his entire existence is about status. he starves his people and spends all effort on creating weapons to threaten countries who have actual functioning governments into giving him some sort of status or respect. the reality is a humiliating embarrassment and if his people knew how impotent his government really is theyre faith in his ability to protect them will dissipate. all authoritarian leaders exploit peoples fallacy of trusting strongmen and unintelligent brutes who pretend they are able to protect them.
Its about showing the starving and encamped citizens of his country that he is still someone who can be trusted. He does have missles which South Korea and the rest of the world is worried about him setting off :/
@@eturley7533 he doesntt care if the earth is a baron hellscape like the country the kims created
@@eturley7533 Did you know that North Korea offered to denuclearize their country in exchange for peace with the US, and the US declined because the Us loves war?
The point is not to shut off rivals, it's to build trust in him among north koreans.
The CPSU also had no rivals, but that didn't stop Stalin from building a personality cult because, again, it's about making sure the people under your rule are convinced you're a good person
Have more children, here’s mine
Kim jung un
Kim jong un keeps lanching nukes for loud sounds
When they revealed her to the world (only last year I think when she was already 10 or 11) the government made every woman with her name change their names.

nah they both probably get good food.

I hope she could later see the terrors that her father and the government caused.
