Rodong Sinmun says that the foundation of the DPRK marked a historic event as it gave a new origin to the building of a genuine country of the people based on the Juche idea and an independent power.

It goes on:

The DPRK has protected the dignity and happiness of the people and brought them into bloom, fully demonstrating the invincible spirit for the past several decades under the guidance of the great leaders and party. This is a proud tradition and great honor of the DPRK.

The permanent victory and prosperity of the DPRK can be guaranteed when we are dynamically advancing straight along the road of Juche, independence, Songun and socialism paved by the great men of Mt. Paektu.

The more than 60 years covered by the DPRK shining with their ideas and august names represent a militant path along which the DPRK has turned into a socialist power of Juche, hewing out an untrodden road.

The DPRK has won one victory after another, holding high the banner of Juche under the leadership of President Kim Il Sung and leader Kim Jong Il. It is more powerfully demonstrating its dignity and might in the advance in the new century of Juche led by supreme leader Kim Jong Un.

The DPRK led by Kim Jong Un is a dignified country firmly adhering to the principle of independence and achieving prosperity, an invincible one defending the peace and security of the country with the might of Songun and genuine one of the people bringing the dream and ideal of the people into bloom, holding high the banner of socialism.

Minju Joson says that the revolutionary exploits performed by Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il for building the country of the people and providing the eternal foundation for the happiness of the nation will shine forever along with the history of the DPRK, adding that the DPRK is ushering in a new heyday of the country's prosperity under the leadership of Kim Jong Un.
