They were warmly welcomed by officials, working people and schoolchildren in Kim Hyong Jik County of Ryanggang Province.

The study tourists held a meeting upon their arrival at the compound before the statue of Generalissimo Kim Il Sung at the Phophyong Revolutionary Site.

Present there were Kim Jong Sun, department director of the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea, Ri Thae Il, chief secretary of the Ryanggang Provincial Committee of the WPK, Mun Chol, chairman of the Central Committee of the Socialist Patriotic Youth League, officials concerned, youth league officials and members of the expedition.

The members of the expedition laid a flower basket and bouquets at the statue of Generalissimo Kim Il Sung and paid tribute to him.

Read out at the meeting was a letter to the respected fatherly Marshal Kim Jong Un presented by the participants in the study tour along the route of the 1 000-ri Journey for National Liberation.

In their letter, all the study tourists made a report on the successful completion of their study tour organized on the occasion of the centenary of the journey made by the great leader Generalissimo Kim Il Sung and the 50th anniversary of the great leader Generalissimo Kim Jong Il's first expedition along this route, and the safe arrival at Phophyong.
