An increasing number of people, including servicepersons and students, have visited a statue of President Kim Il Sung on Mansu Hill with floral baskets and bouquets to pay respect to the founder of the WPK.

The streets are decorated with flags of the WPK and the DPRK and red flags as well as placards reading "Celebration", "Iron-willed Party" and "Invincible Party".
