On December 27 Juche 100(2011), a woman handball coach of the Korean People’s Army received an order to go to hospital for medical treatment.
An ordinary sportswoman got an unusual order at the time when the whole country was grief-stricken over the loss of Chairman Kim Jong Il, the great leader and benevolent father of the nation.
It tells a very impressive story.
In May that year the Chairman attended an opening ceremony of a gymnasium newly built by the KPA and saw a handball game. After a while, he said the woman coach who instructed the game play looked ill.
Hearing a report from an official that though she developed an incurable disease, she worked day and night at the training ground with a determination not to leave the handball court till the last moment of her life, he said she was excellent and measures should be taken to give her immediate medical treatment.
Later, he repeatedly asked about her medical treatment and took every necessary measure whenever opportunity came. His parental care served as a life-giving medicine and she began to recover her health miraculously. But in December that year her health worsened again after hearing the news about the unexpected death of the Chairman.
At this very juncture, the respected Comrade Kim Jong Un learned about her medical treatment and issued an order to her to receive medical treatment immediately.
It was indeed an order of love without parallel in the world which can be made only by the great leader, the supreme incarnation of human love.
