Various parts of the city centering around the bank of the River Pothong where the Victorious Fatherland Liberation War Tower stands were crowded with service personnel of the Korean People's Army (KPA) and people from all walks of life who gathered to watch fireworks of jubilation and joy.

Supreme Commander of the KPA Kim Jong Un, first secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea and first chairman of the National Defence Commission of the DPRK, appeared in the outdoor auditorium.

Watching them were senior officials of the party, state and army, war veteran delegates, officials of the party, armed forces and power organs, working people's organizations, ministries and national institutions, bereaved families of martyrs, service personnel of the KPA and the Korean People's Internal Security Forces, merited persons and Pyongyangites.

Present there on invitation were delegations and delegates of various countries, diplomatic envoys of various countries and members of military attaches here and other foreign guests.

Among those present there were the congratulatory group of Koreans in Japan and other delegations of overseas compatriots and other compatriots and the chief of the Pyongyang mission of the Anti-imperialist National Democratic Front.

Kim Ki Nam, member of the Political Bureau and secretary of the Central Committee of the WPK, made a speech.

He said the fireworks to be displayed in the nocturnal sky of Songun Korea represent the boundless reverence of all the service personnel and people for the peerlessly great men of Mt. Paektu who defeated the U.S. imperialist aggressors, led the showdown with the U.S. to victory after victory and protected the destiny of the country, nation and socialism.

As soon as the start of the gala was declared, fireworks were displayed in the sky above the Victorious Fatherland Liberation War Museum to the tune of the song "Our July 27".

Kaleidoscopic fireworks displayed one after another beautifully decorated the nocturnal sky.

Amid the playing of "Song of National Defence", fireworks were displayed on either side of the theme statue "Victory" of the Victorious Fatherland Liberation War Memorial Tower, brightly lighting Kim Jong Un's immortal autographic letters "Tribute to The Great Years."

Beautiful fireworks were displayed to the tune of the songs "Our General Is the Best" and "Might of Korea," gorgeously adorning the nocturnal sky in July.

The gala reached its climax when multi-color fireworks were displayed to the tune of the songs "Forward to the Final Victory" and "We Will Defend General Kim Jong Un at the Cost of Our Lives".

It reflected the glory the service personnel and people of the DPRK extended to Kim Jong Un who is adding shine to the exploits Kim Il Sung performed by leading the war to victory and the Songun revolutionary leadership feats of Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il.

The service personnel and people who enjoyed the gala were overwhelmed with the immense pleasure and happiness of watching the significant fireworks gala in the presence of Kim Jong Un.
