Article
Ri Sol-ju (Korean: 리설주; born c. 1985–1989) is the current first lady of North Korea as the wife of Supreme Leader Kim Jong Un.
Little is known about her from official North Korean sources, but outside sources have speculated more about her background. While she has made many public appearances with her husband, she has also spent long periods out of the public eye. In April 2018, state media announced that her new title had been elevated from merely "Comrade" (동무) to "Respected First Lady" (존경하는 녀사) – considered a significant honor and the first time the title has been used since 1974. At the same time, she began to take on a diplomatic role.
