Pyongyang, July 2 (KCNA) -- The founding of the immortal Juche idea was a historic event of great significance in the Korean people's struggle for independence.
The Juche idea was founded by President Kim Il Sung in Juche 19 (1930) when he was in his teens.
After occupying Korea, the Japanese imperialists had suppressed anti-Japanese struggles, arresting, imprisoning and killing patriots at random to stamp down on the Korean people's hope for national independence. At that time the Korean people's resistance and mass struggle grew stronger, but they came to failure as they were not guided under the proper line.
From the first days of his revolutionary struggle, the President keenly realized the necessity for a new guiding idea to save the destiny of the nation and lead the national liberation struggle to victory, and groped for a new path.
On this basis, he held a meeting of leading personnel of the Young Communist League and the Anti-Imperialist Youth League in Kalun from June 30 to July 2, 1930 and made a historic report "The Path of the Korean Revolution" at the meeting. In the report, he clarified the steadfast stand that the Korean people are responsible for the Korean revolution and the Korean revolution should be carried out by themselves in keeping with the specific conditions of their country.
His report was a great declaration on the founding of the Juche idea that the popular masses are masters of the revolution and construction and they are also the motive force of the revolution and construction.
On the basis of the revolutionary principles of the Juche idea, the President defined in a scientific way the character, basic tasks, motive power and target of struggle of the Korean revolution and set forth the Juche-oriented line and strategic and tactical policies.
Under the banner of the Juche idea founded by the President, the Korean people achieved the historic cause of national liberation on August 15, 1945 and have dynamically advanced the revolution and construction, recording miraculous victories in the DPRK's history of more than 70 years. -0-
