After accomplishing the historic cause of national liberation from Japan's colonial rule, he had made the long journey covering 578 000 km for the prosperity of the country and wellbeing of people.

It was on May 5, Juche 81 (1992) that the President had a simple breakfast on the road to Kaesong City after leaving Pyongyang early in the morning.

In the city, he went round the Koryo Museum, Manwoltae, Sonjuk Bridge, Phyochung Monuments and Mausoleum of King Wang Kon, founder of Koryo Kingdom, and gave important instructions to preserve historical relics.

In the afternoon, he visited the Kaesong Textile Mill, Pakyon Co-op Farm and other units and left for Pyongyang at around 17:00.

Back in Pyongyang, he reviewed his field guidance to Kaesong and got down to another work.

That day alone, he made a 440 kilometer-long tour of nine units, spending at least 10 hours in the outside.

It was an ordinary day for the President, but a day of great devotion to be recorded in the history of the DPRK.
