The Law on Sex Equality was promulgated in the Democratic People's Republic of Korea on July 30, Juche 35(1946).

Since the day, the Korean women have been leading a worthwhile life to their hearts' content as genuine masters of the country, devoting their patriotic ardour at their work sites. Among them are women scientists who made a contribution to developing science and technology of the country.

Doctors Ju Hyon Hui and Pak Hye Suk at Kim Il Sung University are respected by the teaching staff and students as persons of ability.

Afterwards, she solved pending problems arising in the theory on dynamic chaos and contributed more than 10 theses to the authoritative international scientific journals. She worked as a member of the TWAS-UNESCO Associateship, an international scientific exchange organization, between 2013 and 2017.

Professor Pak Hye Suk at the Resource Science Faculty, the first woman doctor of geology in the DPRK, is an authority on applied mineralogy who made a great contribution to solving the problems of raw materials, fuel and power by depending on the resources of the country.

The biggest of her scientific research findings is that she widened the sphere of use of the vermiculite rich in Korea.
