The official explained, "If General Secretary Kim attends (this Supreme People's Assembly), there is a possibility that he will reveal the overall policy direction, so we are closely monitoring related developments," but also noted that it is difficult to predict whether Kim will attend this meeting. Since Kim's rise to power, the Supreme People's Assembly has convened a total of 14 times, but he has directly attended only 8 times, slightly more than half.
