Kim Yo Jong, the younger sister of North Korea's Kim Jong Un, lashed out at South Korea in a statement.
and other regional leaders. But her statement carried by state media was the first of its kind and indicated a further elevation of her political status.
Describing the Blue House as “a mere child” and “a burnt child dreading fire,” she questioned how its words and actions could be"so perfectly foolish in detail.” Earlier Tuesday, state media said leader Kim Jong Un supervised a live-fire rocket artillery exercise in an apparent reference to the two suspected short-range ballistic missile launches detected by South Korea’s military a day earlier. On Saturday, North Korea said Kim Jong Un also guided an artillery drill aimed at testing the combat readiness of military units.
Kim Yo Jong's statement “suggests that her status and influence have been expanded to such an extent as to express her opinions externally and beyond playing a role of assisting Chairman Kim Jong Un on his public activities,” said analyst Cheong Seong-Chang at South Korea's private Sejong Institute.
