A Country Where People Are Masters
  The great leader Kim Il Sung is the savior of the nation and father of socialist Korea who built a genuine people's country on this land.
  He set out on the road of revolution in his teens to win back the country occupied by the Japanese imperialists.



  Having deeply seen through the demand of the independent era in the initial period of his revolutionary struggle, he elucidated the new truth that the masters of revolution are the masses of the people and the revolution should be carried out independently and creatively by believing in their strength and relying on them and created the immortal Juche idea.
  The Juche idea is, in a word, an idea that one is the master of one's own destiny and has the strength to shape one's destiny. In other words, it is an idea that the masses of the people are the masters of the revolution and construction and they have the strength to promote them.
  By authoring the Juche idea, Kim Il Sung opened a new path of the revolution on which the masses of the people hew out their destinies independently and creatively as masters of their own destinies.
  He led the 20-year-long bloody anti-Japanese war to victory and finally accomplished the historic cause of national liberation on August 15, 1945.



  He successfully carried out the democratic reforms and laid a foundation for building an independent, sovereign state in a short span of time even in the difficult and complex circumstances after liberation. He founded the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, where the people became masters of the country, on September 9, 1948.
  He carried out the socialist revolution in an original way according to the specific reality of the country and victoriously led the socialist construction at several stages and thus built socialism of Juche which wonderfully embodied the independent demand of the people.
  Socialism of Korean style, the greatest patriotic legacy left by Kim Il Sung, is people-centred socialism that embodied the people-oriented philosophy, the genuine outlook on the people.
  Kim Il Sung provided the Korean people with a genuine life and cradle of happiness and his undying feats will shine for all ages.
