Kim Ju-ae is a daughter of North Korean supreme leader Kim Jong Un and his wife Ri Sol-ju. The North Korean government has disclosed little information about her and much is unknown about her, including her birth date and name. The name "Ju-ae" was first mentioned by American basketball player Dennis Rodman after his visit to North Korea in 2012, but it has not been verified by either the North Korean government or South Korean intelligence. North Korean defectors interviewed by South Korean intelligence have claimed two alternate names for her: Un-ju (은주) and Ju-ye (주예).
