Kim Jong Un sent a warm salute to the soldier-builders, waving back to their enthusiastic cheers.

He highly appreciated their feats, saying that the hostel is a shining structure built thanks to the patriotic devotion and work style of the KPA, a standard-bearer in realizing the idea of the party and defending its policies.

Noting that world-startling miracles were being performed in various parts of the country one after another thanks to the heroic struggle of the KPA, he expressed his expectation and belief that the soldier-builders would display their honor of being a death-defying corps and a scouting party in the worthwhile struggle to build a thriving nation in the future, too, and fulfill their mission and duty as the defenders of the country and creators of the happiness of its people.

Present at the event were Hwang Pyong So, Jang Jong Nam, and Kim Jong Gwan.
