Kim Jong Il Enjoys Performance Given by Military Families

Pyongyang, July 4 (KCNA) -- Supreme Commander of the Korean People's Army (KPA) Kim Jong Il watched an art performance given by military families of KPA Units 10215 and 963 and the Korean People's Internal Security Forces. They are taking part in the fourth second-term contest of art group members of the military families.
Colorful numbers included narrative and song "Our Unforgettable Leader", chorus "We Are the Happiest in the World", monodrama "Wishes", agitation poetic drama "We Are in Stand-off" and chorus "Glory to Our Great Party".
The performance given by military families was highly acclaimed by the audience as it would harden the army and people's spirit to devotedly defend the leader and the country and their towering hatred against confrontational maniacs as well as their pledge to take thousand-fold revenge against them.
Kim Jong Il expressed great satisfaction over the fact that the art group members of the military families gave the performance which not only truthfully reflected their worthwhile life but is perfect in ideological and artistic values giving answers to important problems arising in the struggle and life of the people in the Songun era. He extended his special thanks to them.
The contest clearly manifested once again the validity and vitality of the WPK's literature and art policy on popularizing the arts and the advantage of the new culture created in the Songun era, he said, setting forth important tasks which would serve as guidelines in conducting more dynamic popular cultural and performing activities.
