In his lifetime the President made ceaseless journey of field guidance to every part of the country, saying that a leader had to take pains for his people's wellbeing.

When he returned home after defeating the Japanese imperialist aggressors, he first went to visit workers at the Kangson Steel Plant, not his birthplace.

Since then, he had continued his traveling for the wellbeing of the people, regardless of rough roads and weather conditions.

In June one year he did not hesitate to walk through muddy reed marsh in tideland in Onchon County so as to solve the inhabitants' food problem.

Thanks to such devoted efforts, deserted tideland in the county turned into a fertile land.

Once he toured reed fields even under heavy rain to solve the people's clothing problem, wading through the marsh.

Such days of his field guidance included his birthdays and 2 530-odd Sundays and holidays.

In fact, his was a noble life of the people's leader, who would feel his joy at the people's happiness, regarding it as his maxim to believe in the people as in heaven.
