North Korea's most powerful woman | DW Documentary

She's probably the most powerful woman in North Korea: Kim Yo Jong, the dictator’s younger sister. She’s viewed as an emotionless and shrewd strategist for her brother, the North Korean ruler Kim Jong Un. But just who is the "Red Princess"?

Kim Jong Un’s rise began in 2011 when their father, the North Korean leader Kim Jong Il died at the age of 69. His death triggered emotional scenes including, at the funeral, that of a weeping woman who captured the attention of her country and the entire world: Kim Yo Jong.

This was Kim Yo Jong’s first official appearance alongside her brother Kim Jong Un, the new Supreme Leader of North Korea. Within a decade, Kim Yo Jong became the second highest ranking person in the Pyongyang regime and thereby her brother’s potential successor.

Kim Yo Jong holds a multifaceted political role: on the one hand, she knows where and when to deploy her charm -- such as on a visit to South Korea in 2018. But she also issues warnings against the "imperialists” of Seoul and Washington. The documentary examines the personality and the career of the "Red Princess”. It also takes a current look behind the scenes of this totalitarian regime. The nuclear power is mired in a crisis that originated at the outset of the Cold War.

Just looking at her you know she's held eye contact with at least a couple people who took their last breath in fear.

She doesn't give no charming princess vibes at all. She gives the opposite vibes, evil and cold.

She knows how to feed her brother's narcissism and stroke his psychopathic personality. Clever lady, as she's also wanting to stay alive. She does it so well since she is just like him!

She's the only lady in entire north Korea who's smiley. Others are nearly dying of hunger.

Whenever any of you feel that life is not treating you well, give thanks that you don't live in North Korea.

1000% this woman is terrifying. Her entire demeanor, her countenance just screams DO NOT MESS WITH ME. She does not cower. She knows she has power

Years ago i saw an interview with another reporter who was in North Korea when the leader died in 2011. She was supposed to be at the procession but thankfully "warned" to be sick that day. Why? She was informed that cameras would be recording the crowd for signs of disrespect to the dear leader. In other words, she better be able to cry hysterically for hours or face "corrective actions"!! She later reported after LEAVING north Korea that hundreds of mourners "disappeared" for "insincere grief"!! Imagine being killed cause you couldn't cry for hours on demand.

Her being a tiny lady makes her more terrifying to me. You look at her and you’re disarmed. If you didn’t know better, you’d think she was a strict parent at best. But in reality, she holds a terrifying amount of power. She can’t take you physically, but she doesn’t have to. All she has to do is raise an eyebrow, look at a guard, say a word, and you are DEAD. I also find it fascinating that a country so patriarchal is perfectly fine with her. Obviously, anyone who speaks against her is dead, but I still find it incredible that her brother is confident in her to the point that she can stand in for him at events.

When I see her, my blood grows cold. There is nothing about her that exudes compassion. I think she will be even more of a ruthless leader than her brother.

She seems like the type to keep on the low until it’s her time to rule and take over and then it’s like something you never expected…

Her body language, her eyes and the way she holds herself is just intimidating. She knows what she’s doing and clearly she knows it. By the looks of it she’s cold, calculating and overall an intimidating woman who shouldn’t be underestimated
