She, who was born into a poor peasant's family before the liberation of Korea, had experienced the sorrow of a stateless nation, suffering from all sorts of maltreatment and humiliation under the Japanese imperialists' colonial rule.

With a single desire to repay the loving care of President Kim Il Sung and Chairman Kim Jong Il, who liberated the country and made the people enjoy worthy life with dignity, with increased grain production, she had fulfilled her duty as an agricultural worker for decades.

She made patriotic devotion even after becoming a pensioner.

She likes wild edible greens, seafood and potato foods and leads a happy life in good health.
