Top 10: Kim Jong Un photos
It was in late 2010, following his father’s death, that Kim Jong Un was viewed as heir apparent to the leadership of the North Korean nation. The country’s state television network announced him as the "Great Successor" and the first image the world ever saw of him as an adult was released. The North Korean government vowed ‘with bleeding tears' to follow Jong Un, and has taken great care to promote him as an 'outstanding leader,' releasing photos to the North Korean people, and the world, accordingly. Here are our top ten picks of Kim Jong Un photos, as released by the North Korean government.
