SEOUL -- A man claiming to be the son of the slain half brother of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has appeared in a YouTube video saying he's safely with his mother and sister.
"My name is Kim Han Sol from North Korea, part of the Kim family," the man says in English in the 40-second YouTube clip uploaded Wednesday. "My father has been killed a few days ago. I'm currently with my mother and my sister. ... We hope this gets better soon."
An official at South Korea's National Intelligence Service said the NIS had determined that the man in the video is Kim Han Sol. The public affairs official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, citing department rules, didn't explain how his agency confirmed the man's identity.
