When the immortal hymn “Cantata to Marshal Kim Il Sung”, which had stirred the era in the stern year, 60-odd years ago when the 3rd Congress of the Party took place, was played as an orchestral music and song, the audience was full of profound feelings of respect for President Kim Il Sung who pioneered the new era of independence and created the epoch-making example of building the revolutionary Party, state and armed forces.

The part one of the performance, which ended with mass gymnastics “Happy Tomorrow” and “Let’s Defend Socialism”, impressively represented the immortal feats of President Kim Il Sung and Chairman Kim Jong Il who created the new history of building the Korean-style socialism which is demonstrating its dignity as the one independent in politics, self-supporting in the economy and self-reliant in defence by developing the WPK into the strong guiding force of the revolution.

Put on the first stage of the part two of the performance “Following Our Party Forever” were juvenile chorus “March of Children’s Union” and congratulatory poem “We Sing of Our Mother Party” which reflected the bold spirit of children’s union members growing lively to become the masters of prosperous Korea while realizing their beautiful dreams and wishes under the care of the Party.

The performers reflected with solemn musical epic the loyalty of all the people who are glorifying the great era of Kim Jong Un as the great heyday of building a powerful country under the banner of the Juche-oriented Party.

Through the male vocal three and chorus “Hymn to the Party”, an all-people hymn to the 8th Congress of the WPK, the performers fully represented absolute trust in our Party that created the flower garden of people-first principle and put the dignity and national power of socialist Korea on a remarkably high level by confidently leading the country and the people to the straightest victory even in the unprecedentedly arduous trial.

The performance ended with finale “Glory to General Kim Jong Un”, the orchestra, chorus and dance, after making all the audience deeply cherish the iron truth that the fighting goals and tasks set forth at the 8th Congress of the Party would surely be accomplished and the cause of socialism would win victory after victory as long as there are wise leadership of the respected General Secretary, the symbol of mightiness of Juche Korea, and the steel-like, single-minded unity consolidated in the long journey of struggle.
