‘It’s really nice’

I didn’t know that an unusual terraced house would be provided for me, though I had seen much news from newspaper and radio about removal to new houses.

The interior design of the house is to my liking.

Indeed, there is no other country in the world that provides such a house to ordinary farmers like me gratis.

I cannot yet believe that such an excellent house is mine, though I’ve seen my house license time and again.

I’m going to take a photo of the new fine house and send it to my son who is serving the army. Then my son will perform his military service better for the grateful country.

I will do farm work assiduously together with my wife to perform my duty as a farmer to gather a good harvest.

As the Korean proverb says, “The face is the index of the heart.” The exterior and interior of the new house seem to have been built by considering the mind of its owners. The spacious kitchen is especially pleasing. The young couple like us feel awkward to receive a handsome house, though we have not dug a spadeful of earth and laid a brick for the construction of house. We will cherish deeply the gratitude toward the Workers’ Party of Korea and dedicate our all to the farm work.
