I guess Kim Jong chul being a queer took him out of the running. Kim Jong woon was the odds on favorite for some time.
Why don’t they just establish a monarchy and be done with it?
Communism is a great front for hereditary kingship.

Jong-un, now 25, was born to Kims third wife, Ko Yong-hi, who died of breast cancer at the age of 51 in 2004. The youngest of Kims three sons, Jong-un was educated at the International School of Berne and is known to be a fan of NBA basketball. After his return to Pyongyang in his late teens, the North has kept him under a shroud of secrecy and very little is known about his character.
Jong-un refrained from socializing in Berne, spending most of his time outside of school at home, according to the wishes of his father, who did not want him to be influenced by the West. When he ate out, he was accompanied by Ri Chol, the North Korean ambassador to Switzerland, who is known to be the manager of Kim Jong-ils secret funds, sources said.
The youngest son is said to be 175 centimeters tall and weigh about 90kg due to a lack of exercise. He reportedly already has high blood pressure and diabetes. Unlike his brothers, no images of him have been captured by foreign media.
Jong-uns nomination was completely unexpected in the North, even among party leaders, multiple sources said.
Kim Ho-nyoun, spokesman for Seouls Unification Ministry that orchestrates inter-Korean policy, said, Concerning the reported designation, we have not been able to confirm.
Koh Yu-hwan, a North Korea studies professor at Seouls Dongguk University, said the alleged designation was a sensitive issue but acknowledged it is feasible. The notion of a father-to-son takeover has become an inveterate part of the secretive state, he noted.
