The Supreme People's Assembly, the North's rubber-stamp parliament, is to hold the elections on Sunday to choose new deputies who will serve for five years.
They will replace the current deputies chosen in the first election held under the incumbent leader in March 2014.
The voting is largely considered a formality. The official voter turnout was tallied at 99.97 percent for the last election, with 100 percent voting for the approved candidates. (Yonhap)
