All the people in the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea observed the First Full-Moon Day, a folk holiday (fifteenth day of the first month by the lunar calendar).

All parts of the country, beautiful with Korean-style taste and fragrance and vibrant with the creation of new socialist civilization and new life, overflowed with the people’s joy and emotion of enjoying the folk holiday.

At the Rangnang Museum in the capital city of Pyongyang, citizens and youth and students enjoyed themselves with archery and other folk games, keenly realizing that the time-honoured history, brilliant culture and excellent traditions of the nation are being preserved and shining under the warm care of the Workers’ Party of Korea.

Performances were given at the Samjiyon Theatre, National Theatre and Magic Theatre of the National Acrobatic Troupe in Pyongyang and theatres in Hamhung and Wonsan cities and other areas of the country.

The Central Zoo, Natural History Museum, Mirim Riding Club, Munsu Water Park, People’s Open-Air Ice Rink and other recreation grounds were crowded with working people full of joy and optimism.

The festive mood was revved up by the happy looks of housewives preparing national dishes, those spending a pleasant time with janggi (Korean chess) and yut -game and children laughing and talking while flying kites.

The people, who enjoyed the holiday at homes in Kyongru-dong and Songhwa and Hwasong streets and modern houses in rural areas of the country erected under the loving care of the Party, expressed their firm resolve to build a socialist paradise on this land envied by the world.
