One day in October 2014 the respected Comrade Kim Jong Un visited the newly-built Wisong Scientists Residential District.
That day, he looked round a school where children of the scientists would study.
Entering a classroom on the first floor and looking around at the school fixtures with an air of satisfaction, he approached a desk to be used by students.
The desk was designed to open the top panel and put books and school things in it.
Kim Jong Un asked an official to put a ball-point pen on the desk.
When he opened the top panel, the ball-point pen slipped down on the floor of the classroom.
Kim Jong Un said to the officials: When the students open the top panel of the desk to take out books and school things, those on the desk might slip down. It is necessary to make a raised part on or groove the front of the top panel of the desk. Otherwise, a pencil, ball-point pen and the like may slip down the floor at a touch.
Kim Jong Un was deeply concerned about the desk to be used by students lest there should be any defect.
