Where are Kim Jong-un’s siblings?

By Kim Young-jin

Speculation intensified Thursday over the whereabouts of new North Korean leader Kim Jong-un’s siblings, who had apparently yet to surface three days after the announcement of the death of their father, Kim Jong-il.

In particular, much intrigue surrounds Kim Jong-nam, the eldest son of the late ruler who reportedly lives in semi-exile and is seen by some as a dark horse to challenge the power of his youngest half-brother. His location remains unknown.
