ETERNAL SUN OF THE NATION

ETERNAL SUN OF THE NATION

Eternal Sun of Nation

South Korean people who are marking the bloody December when all compatriots grieved over the great loss of the nation after Chairman Kim Jong Il unexpectedly passed away, recollect the immortal exploits of Kim Jong Il, the great image of the powerful Paektusan nation, with ardent yearning for him.

That he opened up the joyous June 15 reunification era when the nation was realizing the independent reunification by its concerted efforts is the extraordinary feats he performed for the times and the nation.

The June 15 reunification era developed the reunification movement into a nationwide drive and unfolded a dream-like reality in which air routs, seaways, roads and railways were relinked and the tourism of Mt. Kumgang and the operation in the Kaesong Industrial Zone began.

Through the delightful reality, south Koreans keenly realized the outstanding leadership ability and the great personality of the Chairman and hardened their conviction that he is the illustrious leader the Korean nation will follow and uphold forever.

So, “Jaju Minbo”, “Surprise” and other internet journals and such websites as “Daum” and “Neighbor” carried lots of articles under the titles “The lofty soul of Chairman Kim Jong Il, the sun of the nation, will be forever alive in the people's hearts”, “Kim Jong Il who will be praised in human history for all ages”, etc, to widely report his sacred feats.

South Koreans from various social standings extol the lofty career, great personality and undying exploits of Chairman Kim Jong Il who dedicated his all to the country and nation all his life.

They say:

Chairman Kim Jong Il is the lodestar of reunification. His beaming smile was the rays of the sun and his benign virtue was the sun’s traction.

Regarding the terminating of the nation’s division as his lifelong task, the Chairman devoted his all to opening the avenue of the independent reunification, peace and prosperity, and made indefatigable efforts till the last moments of his great life for the country and people.

He is the peerless patriot and eternal sun of the nation unheard-of in history.

These voices out of the unshakable conviction are the south Koreans’ ardent praise for the nation’s hero, benevolent father and peerless great man, and the eruption of their fervent yearning for him.

Indeed, Chairman Kim Jong Il is the incarnation of patriotism and the eternal sun of the nation who had lived his whole life burning himself for the sake of the nation and devoted his all only to the country’s reunification and the nation’s prosperity.

Hardly repressing the soaring indignation toward the conservative group in south Korea which drove the inter-Korean relations to a catastrophe and created an extreme war danger, south Koreans are now full of determination to restore the joy of the June 15 reunification era and unfailingly realize peace and reunification by the concerted efforts of the nation upholding the banner of the inter-Korean joint declarations.

Holding Chairman Kim Jong Il in high esteem forever as the sun of the nation, the Korean people will carry out his behests for reunification and bring about a reunified prospering country on this land without fail under the wise leadership of Marshal Kim Jong Un.
