In recent years, a new type of subway train was manufactured with domestic technology and several metro stations were splendidly remodeled in keeping with the requirements of the new century.

The Pyongyang Metro is associated with the warm love of President Kim Il Sung, Chairman Kim Jong Il and Supreme Leader Kim Jong Un for the people.

The President initiated the construction of the metro and devoted his efforts to its designing and completion.

The Chairman worked heart and soul for the realization of making the metro artistic and earnestly called for running the metro in a more proper way to serve the convenience of citizens in traffic.

Cherishing their love for the people, the Supreme Leader set forth a task to manufacture the Korean-style subway train and settled all the problems arising in the development and production of it.

In November Juche 104 (2015), he got on the newly-manufactured subway train to learn in detail about its trial operation and gave highly important teachings for bettering the metro to meet the requirements of a highly civilized socialist nation and putting the metro management and operation on an IT and modern basis of higher level.

Later, he examined the miniatures of stations to be remodeled point by point.
