Kim Jong Un Tours Yuphyong Revolutionary Site
Pyongyang, June 15 (KCNA) -- Marshal Kim Jong Un, first secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea, first chairman of the National Defence Commission of the DPRK and supreme commander of the Korean People's Army, looked round the Yuphyong Revolutionary Site.

It was in this historic place that President Kim Il Sung instilled the faith of sure victory into commanding officers and soldiers of the KPA and learned in detail about the war-time farming of the peasants of the village.

Kim Jong Un stopped before the monument to the revolutionary activities of the President and read the words written on it one by one. Then he paid attention to the house of a peasant where the President stayed.

He said that the President visited the house in the grimmest period of the Fatherland Liberation War, adding that the day the President spent there was an unforgettable day to go down in the history of the WPK.

After meeting commanding officers of the KPA that day, the President sent the soldiers guarding the Supreme Command to the front, thinking of the victory in the war more than his own safety, he noted.

He underscored the need to tell the visitors at length what instructions the President gave as regards the war and what duty the unit stationed there was assigned by him while staying there.

Recalling that General Secretary Kim Jong Il told the story about the revolutionary site, Kim Jong Un underlined the need for the field for preserving revolutionary relics to unearth and ascertain the materials on the President's revolutionary activities in the period of the Fatherland Liberation War in a deep-going manner.

He entered the house of the peasant and watched with deep emotion the desk, telephone, dinner-table, etc. preserved with good care.

He said that Kim Il Sung set forth the outstanding idea and war method to bring a fundamental change in the war at the simple rural house without an operation table, not a good office, and a house with low roof in the northern mountainous area.

He underlined the need for the new generation to deeply grasp how Kim Il Sung created a historic miracle by leading the war to victory at any place.

There are many historic sites and relics such as the Yuphyong Revolutionary Site in very part of the country, he said, adding these historic sites and relics are eternal assets and precious heritages of the Korean revolution which cannot barter with anything.

To significantly celebrate the 60th anniversary of the Korean people's victory in the Fatherland Liberation War is aimed to demonstrate before the world how the army and people of the DPRK won victory in the fight against the imperialist allied forces and honorably defended the freedom and independence of the country in any spirit, holding anyone as their leader, not merely greet the day of victory in the war, he said, adding so he visited the Yuphyong Revolutionary Site.

He said that videos would be made well and shown following the course of the Supreme Command and fine art works portraying Kim Il Sung working there would be created to instill the feats he performed in winning victory in the war and the spirit of the 1950s in the hearts of the service personnel, people and school youth and children and give them the conviction of certain victory and courage.

Praising again the employees of the Yuphyong Revolutionary Site for clearly managing the revolutionary site and conducting the educational work well through it though they are in a mountainous area, he took a picture taken with them.

He called for always remembering and glorifying forever the shining victory in the Fatherland Liberation War won by Kim Il Sung while pulling through the thorny road of rigorous tests and the spirit of the 1950s displayed by the army and people of the DPRK under his leadership.

He was accompanied by Choe Ryong Hae, Choe Hwi, Pak Thae Song and Hong Yong Chil.
