A girl identified as Kim Jong-un's second daughter by Chinese experts has been removed from state propaganda in a shocking change.

The youngster was one of many children who performed a song for the dictator and his wife Ri Sol-ju during North Korea's National Day celebrations in September.

Experts from the InDPRK blog have suggested that she may be Kim's daughter based on her looks, her fame on the show, and her apparent familiarity with Ri Sol-ju.

Her Face aired again on November 19, just hours after the real Kim Ju-ae - the dictator's only known child - made her North Korean television debut.

But a few hours later, when the same TV station rebroadcast the same patriotic edit, the girl's face was removed and replaced.

NK News, a website that monitors the country from neighboring South Korea, said the change revealed the regime was "image sensitive".

The outlet suggested that Kim Jong-un may have "thought it was inappropriate" to release footage of his unannounced second daughter so soon after revealing her first.

However, others have suggested that the regime may be signaling that she is not Kim's daughter after all.
