Check out what's clicking on FoxNews.com. South Korea's National Intelligence Service (NIS) thinks that North Korean leader Kim Jong Un's daughter has been lined up to be her father's eventual successor, lawmakers noted on Monday, according to Reuters. The NIS indicated to lawmakers that its analysis stems from what it characterized as "credible intelligence" that it had gathered, Reuters reported, citing briefings by ruling and opposition party members following a closed-door parliamentary meeting. Video footage posted last month showed Kim and his daughter on a tank.
