North Korean Song - With The Great Leader We Will Survive All Hardships!

Kim Jong Un, chairman of the Workers' Party of Korea, chairman of the State Affairs Commission of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea and supreme commander of the armed forces of the DPRK, looked round the revolutionary battle sites in the area of Mt Paektu.

Supreme Leader of the Party, state and armed forces Kim Jong Un was accompanied by Choe Ryong Hae, member of the Presidium of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the WPK, first vice-chairman of the State Affairs Commission of the DPRK and president of the Presidium of the Supreme People's Assembly.

Also accompanying him were Army General Pak Jong Chon, chief of the KPA General Staff, commanders of the services and corps commanders of the KPA and senior officials of the WPK Central Committee.

It is of remarkable historic significance that Kim Jong Un, the great leader of our revolution who opens up the period of a great leap for the development of the revolution, personally left the sacred trace in the revolutionary battle sites in Mt Paektu area, the source of the lifeline of the revolution and inexhaustible patriotism, through knee-high virgin snow.

Kim Jong Un acquainted himself with the preservation and management of the revolutionary battle sites in the area of Mt Paektu and the real state of study tour and indicated the historic importance of education in the revolutionary traditions and ways for intensifying it on the higher level, while making the rounds of the revolutionary battle sites, revolutionary sites and lodging quarters for visitors in Samjiyon County, Mupho Bivouac and the Taehongdan Revolutionary Battle Site while recalling the sacred footprints President Kim Il Sung left in the battle sites on Mt Paektu and the noble soul of the anti-Japanese revolutionary forerunners.

Riding a steed across the vast area of Mt Paektu together with the commanding officers who accompanied him, he recollected the bloody history of the guerrillas who recorded dignity on the first page of the history of the Korean revolution by shedding their blood in the vast plain of Mt Paektu.

Saying that Samjiyon County has been remodeled as the native one of the revolution and as the hub for practical experience and an immense edifice for the education in revolutionary traditions, he noted that this is a manifestation of a rock-firm faith and immutable will of the Korean people to carry forward the glorious revolutionary traditions, the immortal foundation of the revolution, as the eternal lifeline, add everlasting luster to it and thoroughly implement the revolutionary cause of Juche pioneered on Paektu.

He said that we should ensure that the Party members, working people, service personnel and youth and students of the new generation have a proper understanding of the revolutionary traditions of Paektu that they are the one and only traditions of the Korean revolution which were created along with the start of the Korean revolution and have been ceaselessly developed in every harsh period of the revolution. He continued that we should let them enshrine a proper viewpoint and attitude to the revolutionary traditions of Paektu that they have displayed undying vitality in the struggle of all stages and all forms of the Korean revolution, and helped demonstrate the country's dignity and honor before the world.

Now that the rising generations emerge as the main force, new issues arise from the global political structure and social and class relations, and the imperialists and class enemies make a more frantic attempt to undermine the ideological, revolutionary and class positions of our Party, we should always live and work in the offensive spirit of Paektu, he pointed out. He stated that to firmly arm oneself with the great idea and spirit which run through the revolutionary traditions of Paektu is an important and vital issue of giving continuity to the generation of revolution.

He remarked that it is an important goal and policy constantly maintained by the Party in training reserves for the revolution to make the new generations, who make up the main force of the Korean revolution at present, have the same ideological and spiritual qualities and fighting traits as those of the anti-Japanese revolutionary forerunners, adding that's why the Party made sure that the slogan Let us produce, study and live like the anti-Japanese guerrillas! are held aloft.

Saying with deep emotion that he felt a lot while making the rounds of the revolutionary battle sites again and that there would be no one on a par with President Kim Il Sung, who waged long bloody battles making his way through virgin snow for the sake of national liberation and the people's freedom and happiness, he noted that the President's immortal revolutionary exploits will go down through generations along with the unchangeable, imposing figure of Paektu.

North Korean Song -O Our Benevolent Father 아 자애로운 어버이

The Main Singer is Kim Ok Ju because there is a version song by Song Yang and the other ladies of the Samjiyon Orchestra I would say that this was performed by the Moranbong Band. Maybe I am wrong so please do not stone me to death.

가요 《아 자애로운 어버이》는 인민에게 더 좋은 행복을 안겨주시고 찬란한 미래를 펼쳐주시기 위해 자신의 모든것을 다 바치고계시는 경애하는 최고령도자 김정은동지에 대한 조선인민의 다함없는 흠모의 정을 진실한 시어들과 절절한 선률에 담아 구가하고있습니다.

For me, it's probably the most beautiful North Korean Instrumental Song.
Beginning at 3:16 the scenes in the background have the following backstory:
Kim Jong Un Visits Martyrs Cemetery of KPA Navy
Pyongyang, November 1 (KCNA) -- Supreme Commander of the Korean People's Army Kim Jong Un, first secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea and first chairman of the National Defence Commission of the DPRK, visited the cemetery of fallen fighters of KPA Navy Unit 790 who met heroic deaths while performing their combat duties.

He was accompanied by Choe Ryong Hae, Ryom Chol Song, Kim Myong Sik, Pak Thae Su, Jo Nam Jin, Hwang Pyong So, Kim Tong Hwa, Hong Yong Chil and Ma Won Chun.

After receiving a report that commanding officers and sailors of submarine chaser No. 233 fell while performing their combat duties in mid-October last, he took a measure for finding out all their bodies and holding a solemn funeral for them.

He examined the layout of the cemetery several times and gave a detailed instruction on how to make grave stones and rails and what color of stone should be used. He also instructed officials to have pictures of the fallen fighters carved on their grave stones.

The above-said commanding officers and sailors thus came to enjoy immortality thanks to his profound loving care.

Kim Jong Un laid a flower before the cemetery and paid silent tribute to the memory of the fallen fighters.

Senior officials of the party and army who accompanied him placed flowers before the cemetery and observed a moment silence in honor of them.

He looked round the cemetery.

Watching stone pictures of the fallen fighters one by one, he said that he felt as if they had risen up to greet him.

Feasting his eyes on the cemetery built in a quiet and sunny place with blue sea ahead, he said that the cemetery is located in a very good place as it is near from where the unit is stationed.

He said that sailors of the unit have now become able to sail for performing their combat duties as requested by the fallen fighters after bidding farewell to them, adding that he felt much relieved after having a burial ceremony for them.

He noted that he could hardly go to sleep, when thinking they died at so young ages, though the defence of the country is accompanied by sacrifices.

He said that he felt heartbreaking when thinking of the fallen fighters who served in the navy, their hearts burning with the dream and hope to perform feats with great ambition and their parents grieved at their deaths and their wives who had waited for their return from voyage. He added what bitter sorrow they might feel as he felt so painful.

After watching the cemetery, he said that there should be the name of the owner of each grave, adding he would like to be that owner and asked officials to carve his name on the grave stones. I will feel relieved a bit only when my name is carved on them, he noted.

Saying that the martyrs are his comrades-in-arms and comrades, he stressed that although they died before realizing the lifetime desires of the great Generalissimos under the leadership of the supreme commander, they showed all service personnel how a soldier should carry out the order of the country through their heroic deaths.

The revolutionary spirit of the martyrs who readily dedicated their precious lives to defending the country's sea will always live on, he said.

He stressed that not only the sailors of the unit but all the service personnel of the KPA should learn from the exploits and noble spiritual world of the martyrs who firmly defended their posts till the last moments of their lives and carried out the combat order at the cost of their lives.
