New View of Motive Force of Korean Revolution

Date: 22/01/2025 | Source: KASS (EN) | Read original version at source

Early in August 1926, President Kim Il Sung and other progressive young people in Hwasong Uisuk School, at the news of a “theorist” belonged to the Tuesday group of the Communist Party of Korea giving a lecture on the street of Huadian, went to the venue of lecture.

The “theorist” posing himself as an “authority of Marxism” recited the preceding theory on the motive force of revolution for a length of time and began to stir up factionalism, asserting that the Tuesday group is the “legitimate party” of the Korean revolution.

Kim Il Sung was enraged at such assertion. When the “theorist” finished his lecture, Kim Il Sung asked him: You maintained that not the rest of the non-proletariat elements but only workers and poor farmers are the motive force of the revolution as the Korean revolution is a proletariat one. Does not this contradict the practice of the Korean revolution?

Kim Il Sung continued that it was incompatible with the realities in Korea to define the motive force of the revolution as such while thoughtlessly regarding foreign theory as absolute without considering the concrete circumstances of the Korean revolution.

Kim Il Sung stressed that the immediate task of the Korean revolution was to drive out the Japanese imperialists and achieve independence of the country and thus all the people who were interested in and supported the revolution should be included in the motive force of the revolution.

Those who support the Korean revolution are all the motive force of the Korean revolution—this was a popular, plain and unique view of the motive force of the Korean revolution.
