Dancing parties started to the tune of the song "Let's Sing of the Day of the Sun" in the plazas of the Arch of Triumph, the Pyongyang Indoor Stadium and other venues in Pyongyang.

Youth and students enthusiastically danced to the tunes of such songs as "Mine Is Always the Country of Kim Il Sung", recollecting his revolutionary career.

They cheerfully danced with boundless reverence for leader Kim Jong Il when such songs as "Our General Is the Best" and "Thunder over Jong Il Peak" were played.

Other songs including "Our Leader Loved by People", "Our Country Is Witnessing Changes", "We Like Ardent Life" resounded through the venues of the dancing parties.

Similar dancing parties took place in provinces, cities and counties that day.
