[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Ji-eun] It has been confirmed that Kim Yo-jong, Vice Director of the Workers' Party of Korea, paid respects at the Kumsusan Palace of the Sun together with her brother, General Secretary Kim Jong-un.

The Ministry of Unification stated on the 10th, "Kim Yo-jong was identified in the footage of the Kumsusan Palace of the Sun tribute broadcast on Korean Central TV around 3:15 PM that day."

On the previous day, the 37th anniversary of the founding of the Workers' Party of Korea regime, General Secretary Kim Jong-un visited the Kumsusan Palace of the Sun accompanied by Mrs. Ri Sol-ju, members of the Political Bureau Standing Committee, and senior officials of the military forces.

However, in the tribute photos released by the Korean Central News Agency on the morning of the 10th, Kim Yo-jong's presence was not captured, drawing attention to the background. She also did not appear at all during the parade and ball coverage held the previous day.

But through the Korean Central TV footage in the afternoon, it was confirmed that Kim Yo-jong accompanied the tribute. In the video, Kim Yo-jong is seen standing in the fifth row from the front, at the far left, bowing at a 90-degree angle in respect.
