By Bringing Up 20 Orphans

Kim Son Nyo, a farmer at the Kwirak Farm in Kyonghung County, is a meritorious person of socialist patriotism.

She is a worthy farmer who brought up 20 orphans from her girlhood.

Some people suggested her resigning farming because of her difficult job to take care of many orphans.

In fact, it was very hard to do farm work while bringing up many children. Preparing meals, washing clothes, etc. reduced her sleeping hours.

Sometimes, she thought that she would give up her job. But, she redoubled her pledge to do farm work well and bring up the children well.

Later, the children grew up to be farmers and she formed a family sub-workteam with the children and voluntarily took charge of the sterile land.

She tried to bring up the children to be genuine persons devoting themselves to the country.

Kim Son Nyo worked hard together with the children to bring about a rich harvest and donated a lot of crops to the country.

Now she works hard as a model of the children on the field.
