February 14, 1984 - Kim Jong-un

Kim Jong Un (born 8 January 1982, 1983 or 1984) is a North Korean politician and dictator who serves as both the general secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea (WPK) and the president of the State Affairs Commission, while also holding the highest offices of the North Korean military. A member of the Kim family, he is the third supreme leader of North Korea, as well as the fifth child of Kim Jong Il, his predecessor as supreme leader, and a grandson of Kim Il Sung, the founder of North Korea.

The second of three children of Kim Jong Il and his mistress Ko Yong Hui, Kim studied at the International School of Berne in Switzerland before attending Kim Il Sung University between 2002 and 2007. From 2009, Kim was viewed as the successor to the North Korean leadership. Following his father's death in 2011, state television announced Kim as the "great successor to the revolutionary cause". He assumed various leadership posts, and also became member of the Presidium of the WPK Politburo, the highest decision-making body in the country. In July 2012, Kim was promoted to the highest rank of marshal in the Korean People's Army, consolidating his positions as commander-in-chief of the Armed Forces and Chairman of the Central Military Commission.

Like his father and grandfather before him, Kim Jong Un rules North Korea, and his leadership has maintained the Kim family cult of personality.
