North Korean leader Kim Jong Il's grandson will be enrolling at a private high school in Bosnia made up of international students, a school official indicated Friday.

Kim Han-sol, 16, will be the first student from North Korea to attend the United World College campus in Mostar, school spokeswoman Meri Musa said. Kim will arrive in Bosnia once his visa has been approved.

The chairman of the school's founding board, David Sutcliffe, issued a statement saying “The admission of a student from North Korea, who is also from a very well-known family, has understandably generated surprise and comments, some of them critical.”

“The opportunity of taking a first step in bringing North Korea into the international community, through youth, is one to be cherished,” he added.
