↑Korean names often have a variety of transliterations into English, which can be confusing. For example, "Kim Jong-chul" may also be written "Gim Jeong-cheol" or "Kim Jŏng-ch'ŏl" among many other variations. See لاتیننویسی کرهای for more information.
↑Official North Korean biographies of Kim Jong Il list his birth year as 1942. The گاهشماری کرهای is based upon the گاهشماری حیوانی which is believed to characterize one's personality. The year 1942 (Year of the Horse), in addition to being 30 years since Kim Il Sung's birth may be viewed as a better year than others, thus creating a motive to lie about a birth year.
↑Official North Korean biographies of Kim Jong Un list his birth year as 1982. The گاهشماری کرهای is based upon the گاهشماری حیوانی which is believed to characterize one's personality. The year 1982 (Year of the Dog), in addition to being 70 years since Kim Il Sung's birth, may be viewed as a better year than others, thus creating a motive to lie about a birth year.
↑Birth year for Kim Ju-ae is not publicly known. She may have been born in either late 2012 or early 2013.
