They have called at their teacher’s house on holidays and significant days.

Not long ago, they had visited their teacher on her birthday.

Kim Yon Ho told An Pok Sun that he could become a doctor and associate professor thanks to the teachers’ sincerity and valuable foundation.

Receiving disciples who call An Pok Sun "teacher", although they became parents of children, she proudly felt moral principles and fragrance of excellent virtue prevailing in our society.

Saying warmly that they wished the patients to recover good health as early as possible, they gave the patients holiday foods they prepared for them.

Seeing such grateful medical workers, the patients were deeply moved.

The holiday congratulations the patients received showed the beautiful looks of our society where everyone forms a large harmonious family and lives in harmony, helping and leading each other forward.

 

Song Sung by Centenarian 

 

On the morning of the Lunar New Year’s Day, many people visited Won Yon Sil residing in the people’s neighbourhood unit No. 188 of Township of Phyongsan County.

They were neighbors and officials of the town office gathered to enjoy the holiday together with the centenarian, who had celebrated her 100th birthday some days before.

Receiving fragrant flowers and souvenirs, the centenarian shared joy with the visitors.

Ri Kwang Ok, the head of the neighbourhood unit, informed the visitors of the centenarian’s health condition.

The grandma can read without glasses and has a good ear. And she also has a good memory; she remembers her youthful days and recites the lyric "Mother". ..

Hearing the story in delight, the visitors thought of her blessed life.

Then a joyful recreation party was held and the centenarian sang a grateful song there.

After her song, she expressed her gratitude:

"Thank you, Respected Marshal Kim Jong Un!"

Amid the loud cheers, the visitors made up their minds to defend and glorify the socialist system which makes all the people lead the most blessed life.
