More speeches were made.

Speakers said that the wise leadership of Marshal Kim Jong Un is what keeps the Juche-oriented literature and art alive and the Songun revolutionary exploits of the Workers' Party of Korea are the eternal theme and seed in the creation of masterpieces.

They said they can create as many masterpieces as possible if everybody makes redoubled efforts to reach the high level of creation desired by Kim Jong Un.

The dynamic music presentation by the Moranbong Band playing the role of an engine for a revolution in literature and art in the new era and the choruses of military songs staged by the State Merited Chorus are putting strong spurs to the steady advance of the Juche revolutionary cause started in Mt. Paektu, making the hearts of all the service personnel and people burn with enthusiasm, the speakers said, calling for thoroughly implementing the important tasks set forth by Kim Jong Un in his letter to the participants in the meeting.

They deeply reflected on the fact that inactivity and stagnation manifested in the field of literature and art at present are attributable to the wrong ideological viewpoint and aesthetic outlook of creators and artistes and this is directly related to the faith in the victory of socialism in the final analysis.

Speakers called for ushering in a fresh heyday of literature and art by grasping again and reconfirming the issue of roles of literature and art at present and the importance of the mission and duty of the creators and artistes in the present era and making even a single movie or an article a powerful weapon in the party's ideological work which can be a substitute for thousands of tons of food and tens of thousands of shells.

Choe Thae Bok made a closing address.

The 9th national meeting of artistes will go down as a grand meeting which powerfully demonstrated the strong faith and will of the creators and artistes to fully display the might of the Juche-oriented literature and art and dynamically speed up the grand advance for modeling the whole society on Kimilsungism-Kimjongilism under the wise leadership of Kim Jong Un and marked a milestone for an epochal turning point in the development of the Songun revolutionary literature and art in the 21st century.
