Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Minute: On North Korea's Kim Yo-jong

The sister of North Korean leader Kim Jong-un is to attend Friday's opening ceremony of the Winter Olympic Games in neighbouring South Korea.

Kim Yo-jong will be the first immediate Kim family member to cross the border, with some seeing her visit as the latest sign of a thawing of relations between the two Koreas.

So who is she - and how significant is her visit? Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Minute’s Sophie - who is in South Korea’s capital Seoul - gave us an update.
