There is the Changgwang Sparkler Shop on Rimhung Street newly built in the Hwasong area of Pyongyang. Since it opened in May, it has attracted a lot of customers. The goods of the shop especially awakens the curiosity of children who come here with their parents or grandparents.

According to Ra Jong Mi, a saleswoman of the shop, they sell sparklers like sparkling dragonfly and tops for outdoor use only and sparkling sticks which can be used indoors as well. Dozens of kinds of sparklers, including sparkling fountain, lead the children into the ecstasy and mystery of fireworks, she said.

Customers choose sparklers to buy, seeing videos about various kinds of sparklers on show on TV in front of the display stand.

As they are convenient to use and safe, sparklers in different forms give a feeling of pleasure to both children and adults.

They come for individual and group uses. And those which send out sparks explosively are in great demand.

A sparkler has its flying object which can fly up to 120-150 metres high when the fuse is ignited and explode in the shape of thrown confetti like fireworks and whose remains are parachuted.

A woman living in Hwawon-dong No. 1, Hwasong District, Pyongyang, said proudly that her son is absorbed in playing with sparklers on the balcony of their nice house.

Many people reportedly come to buy various kinds of sparklers at the shop on holidays.
