Pyongyang, December 23 (KCNA) -- On the evening of December 23, Juche 35 (1946) President Kim Il Sung told a woman who was lodging in his house that the next day was the birthday of Kim Jong Suk, an anti-Japanese heroine. Hearing what he said, Kim Jong Suk, with a bright smile on her face, said how could she have a birthday party since the President had refused to have his birthday celebrated. Actually, the woman had gone shopping from several days ago to prepare a birthday dinner for the heroine without her knowing. Acquainting herself with the fact, however, Kim Jong Suk stopped her from the preparation, saying that as the President was working hard, they should not concentrate on trifling things but on showing great devotion to him. So, Kim Jong Suk, who should have taken best wishes from all the people, spent her birthday with just receiving congratulatory remarks from the President before taking a simple breakfast as usual. It was the second birthday she had in the country after its liberation. |
