North Korea Music Video Special: From "Horse-Like Lady" to the Leader's Girlfriend?

North Korea's hot gossip starts with a mystery woman and gets better....

Last weekend North Korean leader Kim Jong-un did the rounds of high-profile events. First he attended the commemoration of the 100th anniversary of the birth of his grandfather and North Korea's first Leader, Kim Il-sung. Then he lightened the mood by watching a concert, complete with "Disney-like" (but not "Disney", because we don't want copyright issues) characters

But by the end of Sunday, folks were not talking about Kim Jong-Un. They were wondering about the woman at his side.

So who is she? The top speculation was that, in another life, the woman is married pop singer Hyon Song-wol.

You don't know Hyon Song-wol? Well, you should, because she brought us the 2005 hit, with music video, "Excellent Horse-Like Lady".
