Picturing Rich Harvest

Politics 2024.3.20.


It was one August day in Juche 108(2019) when the respected General Secretary Kim Jong Un started on his way home after watching the demonstration fire of new-type tactical guided missiles.

Ears of rice which were getting ripe were observed through a car window.

He was so pleased to look at the vast plains promising a rich harvest that he could not take his eyes off the car window.

But accompanying officials were very sorry because they recollected a happening at daybreak after the demonstration fire of Juche projectiles.

At that time he, all of a sudden, had seen the maize field around its launching site and made an official bring an ear of corn to him.

Holding the corn the official had brought to him after a while, the General Secretary had peeled off the cornhusk and carefully looked at the unripe grains in it.

And then he had felt anxious about damage to be suffered in the maize farming owing to the unfavorable weather conditions.

When the officials thought of the then happening, the running car suddenly stopped on a road.

The respected General Secretary again let the official pick an ear of rice for him at a field beside the road to try to find the method for doing farm work well.

Seeing him, the officials were moved deeply.

Once when he had visited the farm No. 1116, he had said with satisfaction that the sound of rice plants and maize swaying in the wind seemed to him like a triumphal song of socialist victory and laughter of our people and even when he had made a journey of the field guidance, he praised the patriotic mind a faithful farmer had kept after seeing a heavy ear of rice.

That day the officials pictured the rich autumn to be endlessly brought on this land and golden ears waving in the wind on the socialist farm fields under the wise leadership of the great Father.
