The great leader Comrade Kim Il Sung visited the Sadong Park in Pyongyang for the second time in September 16, Juche 37 (1948).
On arriving at the park, he mounted a pavilion and enjoyed a panoramic view of the park. He told the officials that the scenery of the Sadong Park was very beautiful and it was advisable to build a playground, fix chairs in several places and pave the road well so that the workers of the Sadong Coal Mine and people around the area could visit it and enjoy a pleasant time there.
He then said that the park should be developed into an excellent cultural resort for the working people and that the Sadong-bound trolley track should be turned into a double-track to provide the citizens with every convenience for coming to the park.
After discussing the problems arising in sprucing up the park together with officials, he headed for the Sadong Coal Mine village.
At the entrance of the village, he dropped in at a coal miner’s cozy home.
Very surprised to see him visiting her home so unexpectedly, the hostess forgot to make a bow to him.
After asking her about the living conditions of coal miners, he said it would be difficult to buy vegetables as it was near the city. After a moment’s thought, he told the accompanying officials that small vegetable plots should be provided to the families of coal miners so that they could grow vegetables by themselves.
Indeed, he devoted every day of his life to the people.
