They are given priority on the roads, along with vans carrying bean milk for children.

The Kyongsang Kindergarten trains little music prodigies.

Kim Sun Nyo, a teacher at the Kyongsang Kindergarten, told KCNA:

"Leader Kim Jong Il in his lifetime sent the buses to the kindergarten for the commuting of children getting early musical education.

Before the provision of the commuter buses, children at the kindergarten had to use bus route or metro under the care of their parents.

Indeed, Kim Jong Il was the tender-hearted father of children as he put forward them as the king of the country and had taken warm care of them as their own parents would do."

Kim Nam Hui, mother of a kindergartener, said:

"We, parents, are very thankful to the leader and the socialist system for having cultivated our children's talents and provided such commuter buses. The children of our country are the happiest in the world."

A driver, Ri Yong Nam, said that he feels pride and honor of serving the children, the king of the country.
