Pyongyang, January 12 (KCNA) -- The respected Comrade Kim Jong Un received a letter from members of the 34th art troupe of Korean schoolchildren in Japan, who had taken part in the New Year performance for 2025, on Saturday.

The members of the art troupe said in the letter that they made a deep bow to the respected fatherly Marshal Kim Jong Un , who took a measure to take part in the New Year performance before leaving the homeland in consideration of their minds and bestowed the greatest privilege and glory they had never thought in the yard of the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea, with the minds of the General Association of Korean Residents in Japan (Chongryon) and all Koreans in Japan.

The letter said that during their stay in the homeland, they keenly cherished the true image of a genuine power holding the greatest man in high esteem, while witnessing the reality of the homeland where hurrah for the Workers' Party and socialism are heard everywhere under the people-first politics pursued by the respected fatherly Marshal and the innovative entities of self-reliance and self-support spring up like mushrooms after rain.

It went on:

All the members of the art troupe of Korean schoolchildren in Japan who enjoyed the greatest glory and happiness in the history of Chongryon and the history of the movement of overseas compatriots in the world are filled with a firm pledge to grow up to be the sunflowers of patriotism and loyalty following the sun only in an alien land to repay the warm love of the fatherly Marshal.

We will regard the song of loyalty and filial devotion that we sang before the fatherly Marshal as a theme song of our life and firmly prepare ourselves as pillars of carrying forward the patriotic cause of Chongryon while flying high the flag of the DPRK at our schools in capitalist Japan.

Bearing in mind that the future of strong Chongryon to be prosperous under the leadership of the respected fatherly Marshal will be recorded first on their report cards, we will set an example in studying and organizational life and always grow up cheerfully and bravely as befitting the sons and daughters in an alien land who received his paternal love.

The letter wished Kim Jong Un , who always takes warm care of all his children and makes ceaseless journey of devoted service for the people, good health. -0-
