Question: Who is the common tie between Kenji Fujimoto and Kim Jong-nam?
Context: A collar beam or collar is a horizontal member between two rafters and is very common in domestic roof construction.  Often a collar is structural but they may be used simply to frame a ceiling.  A collar beam is often called a collar tie but this is rarely correct.  A tie in building construction is an element in tension rather than compression and most collar beams are designed to work in compression to keep the rafters from sagging.  A collar near the bottom of the rafters may replace a tie beam and be designed to keep the rafters from spreading, thus are in tension: these are correctly called a collar tie. Song Hye-rang (born 1935) is a North Korean defector and author.  Her father was a wealthy South Korean landowner who moved to the North for political reasons, while her mother was an editor of the official North Korean newspaper "Rodong Shinmun".  Song's younger sister Song Hye-rim, a popular actress, secretly began an affair with Kim Jong-il against his father Kim Il-sung's wishes in the late 1960s or early 1970s, which culminated in Hye-rim's forced divorce from her husband; Hye-rang first learned of the situation on 10 May 1971, when Kim came to her residence in the middle of the night and informed her that he had impregnated her younger sister.  Five years later, Hye-rang would become responsible for raising Kim Jong-nam, the son resulting from that pregnancy; his father was unwilling to let him attend school for fear that the secret of his parentage would be revealed.  Hye-rim moved into the household; she also brought her own son Ri Han-yong and daughter Ri Nam-ok to live with them, so that Jong-nam would not be lonely.  Their lives were carefully managed by Kim Jong-il to ensure that his father would not find out about his continuing affair; they spent most of their time at residences in east Pyongyang or Chungsangdong, occasionally travelling overseas to Geneva and Moscow. Kenzie (Korean 켄지 "Kenji", born Kim Yeon Jung, February 3, 1976 in Shimane-ken, Japan) is a composer signed under S.M. Entertainment.

The assassination of Kim Jong-nam (Chosŏn'gŭl: 김정남 ; Hancha: 金正男 ) occurred on 13 February 2017 when two women attacked him with VX nerve agent, a lethal chemical weapon, at Kuala Lumpur International Airport in Malaysia.  Kim was the eldest son of deceased North Korean leader Kim Jong-il and the half-brother of current North Korean leader Kim Jong-un.  The assassination is under investigation but is widely believed to have been ordered by the North Korean government. Kim Jeong-nam or Kim Jong-nam (Hangul: 김정남 ) may refer to: A parallelogram steering linkage is called such because like its name sake the two sides of the linkage run parallel to each other and are equal in distance.  This type of steering linkage uses four tie rods, one inner and one outer on each side (left and right), a center link (which runs between the tie rods), an idler arm on the passenger side, and a pitman arm on the driver side.  The pitman arm attaches to the steering gear output shaft which is also commonly called the pitman shaft.  The pitman arm attaches to the center link and is moved by turning the steering wheel.  The center link transfers the movement from the pitman arm and pitman shaft to the idler arm on the passenger side.  The inner tie rods are mounted to the center link and transfer steering motion to the steering arms and outer tie rods.  All of the joints which mount these components are constructed of small ball and socket joints to provide the necessary freedom of movement required to maintain control over the vehicle while it is in motion.  The most common type of steering is the parallelogram.  The cross-steer and Haltenberger linkage designs are used on some trucks and vans. Kim Jong-chul (born 25 September 1981) is a son of North Korean Kim Jong-il.  His younger brother is Kim Jong-un, now the leader of North Korea.  His older half-brother was Kim Jong-nam. Kim Jong-nam (Chosŏn'gŭl: 김정남 ; Hancha: 金正男 , ] or ] ] ; 10 May 1971 – 13 February 2017) was the eldest son of North Korean leader Kim Jong-il.  From roughly 1994 to 2001, he was considered the heir apparent to his father.  He was thought to have fallen out of favour after embarrassing the regime in 2001 with a failed attempt to visit Tokyo Disneyland with a false passport, although Kim said his loss of favour was due to advocating reform. Kim Han-sol (Korean: 김한솔 , born 16 June 1995) is the eldest son of Kim Jong-nam and a grandson of the former North Korean ruler, Kim Jong-il.  His father was the unofficial heir-apparent until 2001, when he fell out of favor with the regime after a failed attempt to secretly visit Japan's Disneyland in May 2001. Kenji Fujimoto (藤本 健二 , Fujimoto Kenji , born 1947) is the pen name of a Japanese chef who claimed that he was former North Korean leader Kim Jong-il's personal sushi chef from 1988 to 2001.  Fujimoto published a memoir in 2003 entitled "I was Kim Jong-il's Cook", detailing many of his experiences with Kim Jong-il.  Many people doubted the veracity of his claim.  However, Fujimoto, contrary to the prevailing consensus of experts on North Korean politics, asserted that Kim Jong-un (who was relatively unknown at that time), rather than Kim Jong-nam, would be appointed as Jong-il's successor.  Fujimoto's prediction proved true when Jong-un succeeded his father as Supreme Leader in December 2011.
