Pyongyang, February 18 (KCNA) -- Koreans in Japan significantly celebrated the greatest auspicious February holiday of the nation.

The glorious history in which Kim Jong Il devoted all his life to adding luster to the country, is being carried forward more brilliantly while shining its rays all over the world thanks to the respected Marshal Kim Jong Un , he added.
