North Korean dictator Kim Jong-il has reportedly picked his youngest son, Kim Jong-un as his successor. There’s not much that is known about Kim Jong-un except that he studied in Switzerland under a pseudonym and that he is a fan of Michael Jordan. The image above released by South Korean TV station KBS shows Kim Jong-un at the age of 11. Kim Jong-un is currently 25 years old.

I wonder if his educational background in Switzerland may influence him at all in changing the current government structure in North Korea. We can dream, yeah?
