I firmly believe that all Chongryon officials and Koreans in Japan will in the future, too, bring about a substantial development and change in the struggle to usher in a new heyday of the movement of Koreans in Japan with their patriotic and inexhaustible devotion in 2024, bearing in mind the benevolent images of President Kim Il Sung and Chairman Kim Jong Il.
