One hottest day in August, 1998, Chairman Kim Jong Il gave field guidance at some units.
The Chairman, who was busy looking at documents while giving field guidance, called an official, saying that it is very sweltering.
The Chairman told an official that on a hot day as now, it would be so hot for the people when they watch games at stadiums, and that ice cream would relieve them from heat.
And the Chairman asked him if there were machines for making ice cream in stadiums.
He told the official, who failed to answer soon, that we should think of the people first even when we feel hot and that the machines for making ice cream should be installed in the gymnasiums.
Ice cream, which our people enjoy today, is associated with the paternal love of the Chairman. -0-
