Mysterious new aide to Kim Jong Un reappears at massive concert, banquet

North Korea also honors workers who sacrifice ‘enjoyment’ for country’s development at Sept. 9 National Day banquet

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un was once again seen with a mysterious female aide at a major event Thursday who was carrying a large handbag and trusted to secure his latest nuclear doctrine speech, according to newly released state TV footage. 

NK News was first to report earlier this year on the presence of the new aide, who may be a relative of Kim given their close resemblance, but her identity remains unknown.
