Kim Jong Un, general secretary of the Workers’ Party of Korea, president of the State Affairs of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea and supreme commander of the armed forces of the DPRK, watched a Lunar New Year performance on February 11 together with the members of the Party central leadership body.

The participants were greatly excited to see the significant performance celebrating the Lunar New Year with the General Secretary, after taking part in the 2nd plenary meeting of the 8th WPK Central Committee to be brilliantly recorded in the history of the Party and the Juche revolution and being provided the powerful weapon for practice and innovation for implementing the decisions made at the 8th Party Congress.

As the General Secretary appeared at the theatre amid the welcome music, all the participants broke into stormy cheers extending the greatest respect to him who is opening up an avenue to fresh advance and victory for the Party and the people by dint of his far-sighted wisdom and extraordinary art of leadership and strengthens the Party into a motherly party that fights, advances and unconditionally serves the people both in name and reality.

The performance given by artistes of the State Merited Chorus and major art troupes included monumental songs reflecting the people’s boundless trust in the WPK which has led the country and the people and glorified the annals of the revolution with gigantic transformation and victories.

The performers sang highly of the greatness of their Party which has confidently led the Korean revolution straight along the path of victory defying unprecedented grim hardships and challenges and demonstrated the might of the country and the people.

Resounding through the venue were famous pieces of the era of the Workers’ Party showing deep reverence for Kim Jong Un who is creating a new history of a dignified powerful country with the people-first politics full of warm loving care for and devotion to the people, and reflecting the loyalty and single-minded unity of the people who are determined to greet all victories and glory on the road of only trusting and following the Party.

The performance gave rich artistic depiction of the profound loyalty and firm faith of the people to follow the long journey of the revolution demonstrating the might of the Korean-style socialism while holding up the red flag of Paektu and the Party flag, a guide flag, as the banner of victory. It reached the climax with orchestral music and male chorus “We Will Go On along the Road of Loyalty” and “We’ll Travel One Road Forever”.
