Symposium on Juche-Oriented Idea of Literature and Art Held
Pyongyang, September 19 (KCNA) -- A symposium on the Juche-oriented idea of literature and art in the creation of works of art of the Songun era was held at the Mansudae Art Studio on Sept. 18. Choe Song Ryong, chairman of the Central Committee of the Korean Artists Union, and others took the floor. They said the art of Korea has effloresced and developed day by day under the wise guidance and deep care of leader Kim Jong Il. Take a big-g-g breath before you read this next sentence -- Kim Jong Ilâs idea and theory on the building of art to represent the requirement and desire of the popular masses for independence in the works of art and well reflect the true features of Juche-oriented art give clear answers to questions of principle arising in the creation of masterpieces and indicate ways of increasing works worth being national treasures in the present times, they stressed. Gasp! Pant, pant, pant. They called for bringing a new turn in creating works of art worth being national treasures that would inspire the Korean people with high national pride. Iâm guessing a velvet picture of Kimmie wonât do. Present there were Kim Jong Ho, chairman of the Central Committee of the General Federation of the Unions of Literature and the Arts of Korea, and other officials concerned, officials in the field of art creation and artists in the city.
