The North Korean authorities and state-run media said that Kim’s birthday was January 8, 1982, [18] but South Korean intelligence officials believed the actual date was one year later.

[23] He was described as shy, a good student who got along well with his classmates and was a basketball fan. [24]He was accompanied by an older student who was considered to be his bodyguard. [25] However, it was later suggested that Gümligen's students were not Kim Jong-un, but his brother Kim Jong-chul. [26]
Later, it was reported that Kim Jong-un attended the Liebefeld Steinhölzli Public School in the name of Knez-Bernny under the name "White Sands United Nations" or "Non-Le", from 1998 to 2000, the son of an employee of the Korean Embassy Bern. The authorities confirmed that a North Korean student from North Korea attended the school from 1998 to 2000. Pak-un first attended a special class for foreign language children and later attended the sixth, seventh, eighth and formal courses. . In the ninth year, I suddenly left school in the fall of 2000.
