North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un has adopted the prestigious title of 'Great President' of the ruling party in recent months, according to observers.
People bow before the statues of the late North Korean leaders Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il as the country marks the 25th death anniversary of Kim Il Sung, at Mansu Hill in Pyongyang, North Korea.
The hermit kingdom's media has increasingly used"Great President" to refer to Kim Jong Un over the last few years. Kim Jong Un was referred to as"Great President" only four times in 2020, followed by 16 occasions in 2021. By 2022, he was using the title 24 times throughout the year. The title use shows the dictator has a willingness to transgress established"eternal" protocols set by his father and grandfather.
