Jang Sung-taek, (born 2 February 1946; alternatively Jang Song-thaek or Chang Sung-taek) is a North Korean politician. He is married to Kim Kyong-hui, aunt of Kim Jong-un, the Supreme Leader of North Korea. He is a leading figure in the North Korean government. South Korean government officials and academic North Korea watchers suggested that he may have taken on de facto leadership over North Korea due to Kim Jong-il's ailing health, and later death. Jang is currently Vice-Chairman of the National Defence Commission, a position considered second only to that of the Supreme Leader. He is a four-star general and is thought to have been promoted to that position around the time of Kim Jong-il's death as his first appearance in uniform was while visiting Kim lying in state. Jang has been termed as Kim Jong-un's "key policy adviser".
