North Korea Kim Chairman's birthday and no celebration event January 8 11:52
As North Korea and the United States face difficult nuclear-nuclear negotiations, Kim Jong-un, chairman of the Korean Labor Party, celebrated his birthday on the 8th. As with last year, no national celebrations are planned, and it is likely that the government has decided carefully on the holidays to strengthen the idolization of President Kim.
North Korean chairman Kim Jong Eun is said to have reached the age of 36 or 37, although his birthday was January 8 and his age has not been announced.
Grandfather Kim Ilson (Kin Il Sung) and father Kim Jong Il (Kin Jong Il) have birthdays on national holidays, and celebration events are held throughout the country. Calendars are weekdays, not holidays.
The Korean Labor Party newspaper, Labor Newspaper, dated 8th, did not mention birthdays, and no national celebration events are planned as in last year.
A number of North Koreans living in China told NHK: "While there are various difficulties in the country, celebrating birthdays as holidays would be a burden on the people, Or not. "
In the face of difficult denuclearization negotiations with the United States, North Korea has been strongly controlling the United States, with Kim referring to new strategic weapons.
The North Korean leadership seems to be judging when to set a birthday on holidays and strengthen idolization in order to further empower Kim.
North Korean Woman "Proud to be Chairman Kim"
Asking a North Korean woman in front of the North Korean embassy in Beijing that Kim Jong Eun's birthday is not a holiday, "Chair Kim is humble and does not always prioritize herself. I'm just wondering if the people can live well, and I'm proud that the great Chairman Kim is the supreme leader. "
