She, born into a poor peasant's family, was subjected to all sorts of maltreatment and humiliation. After the liberation of the country, she worked faithfully as a master of the country and an agricultural worker for scores of years.

Enjoying regular medical service, she is doing simple housework in good health.

When talking to villagers she says she could bring up her children without paying even a penny and lead a long life in good health with her sons and daughters, grandchildren and great-grandchildren thanks to the people-oriented policies of the Workers' Party of Korea and the state.
