Eternal Song of Victory

The fierce Korean War against the armed invasion of the US imperialists was fought between 1950 and 1953.

The song "We Have Won" sings of the joy and pride of the Korean people who won the war.

It was created in Juche 42(1953) with poem by Sok Phal Bong and music by People's Artist Ri Myon Sang.

The war was fierce but the Korean people were always convinced of victory.

In the midst of the war the master plan for rehabilitation and construction of Pyongyang City was prepared under the idea and guidance of the great leader Kim Il Sung and an exhibition held to show the prospect of the rehabilitation and construction of Pyongyang City after the war.

On the order of Kim Il Sung, university teachers and students, who were fighting on the front, came back to universities and a factory college was established during the war. They were measures unprecedented in the world history of wars, which foresaw the victory in the war and the postwar rehabilitation and construction in a scientific way during the hard-fought war.

The Korean people were picturing the day of victory to themselves and a song of victory was ringing in their hearts.

Researcher Pak Hyon Su at the Academy of Social Sciences says:

"The song 'We Have Won' has such lines;

'Flying the flag of the shining victory

True to the lofty will of the sagacious leader

Let's advance for building a bright future'

As our people were convinced of victory even in the flames of war when they had to risk their lives everywhere--on the front and in the rear, they could chorus their will to build a prosperous country under the guidance of the great leader Kim Il Sung."

The Korean people keep the song "We Have Won" as the eternal song of victory.
