North Korea also said yesterday that it also raised measures to revolutionize all areas of socialist culture, including education, health care, literature and art.

In particular, he pointed out that the working groups, including the Youth Alliance, which is the party’s safety and subsidiary organization, are failing to fulfill their mission and duty,

He said he had discussed issues necessary to strengthen the construction of socialism through the ideological education project.

In addition, he emphasized the spirit of self-awareness and progressive struggle, saying that if he cannot escape from schematism, rigidity, and old-fashioned attitudes, he cannot overcome difficulties.

The newspaper added that the participants of the party were seriously listening to Chairman Kim Jong-un’s report, overflowing with revolutionary enthusiasm for real achievements and real innovations.

As today is Chairman Kim Jong-un’s birthday, the official schedule of the party conference was concluded yesterday, and the possibility of adopting a decision and holding a fervor was raised today, but considering the remaining agendas, the conference is expected to continue tomorrow.

The 8th Party Congress in North Korea began on the 5th, and on the first day, the socialist construction sector was discussed with the opening remarks of Chairman Kim Jong-un.

On the 2nd, 6th, we discussed strengthening national defense and major economic sectors, and on the 3rd, yesterday we discussed education, health, culture, South Korea issues, and foreign relations.

Today, after comprehensive discussion of the issues discussed over the past three days and adoption of the decision, it is expected that the party will revise the party rules and conduct elections for the central guidance organs tomorrow.

Also, if a large-scale rally is held like the 7th party conference, it is expected that a rally and a fervor will be held on the 10th.
