The youthful leader of North Korea, Kim Jong Un, married a woman identified as Ri Sol-Ju, North Korean state TV reported on Wednesday, according to South Korea’s Unification Ministry. Kim, who remains a mystery to the rest of the world, became the third generation of his family to lead his isolated country when he assumed power following his father’s death in December 2011.
His father, Kim Jong Il, known as “Dear Leader,” ruled for 17 years after he inherited power from the country’s founding father, Kim Il Sung, the eternal president and “Great Leader.” Kim Jung Un, whose age remains the source of speculation, was granted the title of “supreme leader.”
