SEOUL—North Korean leader Kim Jong-un’s 28-year-old sister will make her debut on the world stage when she visits South Korea to attend the opening ceremony of the Winter Olympics on Friday, Seoul’s Unification Ministry said.
Pyongyang told Seoul that Kim Yo-jong would accompany Kim Yong-nam, North Korea’s nominal head of state, along with Choe Hwi, chairman of the National Sports Guidance Committee, and Ri Son-gwon, who led inter-Korean talks last month, according to the ministry.
