His agency stated on the 22nd, "After careful consideration due to personality differences and following the cooling-off period mandated by the court, Kim Jong-un recently finalized his approximately 20-year marriage through a mutual consent divorce."
Kim Jong-un has been granted custody of their children.
The agency added, "Through an amicable agreement, they have decided to maintain a good relationship. We ask that you refrain from posting malicious comments or publishing speculative reports."
