On October 14, 1945 there held a mass rally to welcome President Kim Il Sung’s triumphal return on the then Pyongyang public playground.
Later, the President instructed as follows his mental state when he mounted the platform amid the enthusasitic cheers of the crowd on that day.
Standing on the platform amidst the enthusiastic cheers of more than 100, 000 people, I felt happiness that defied description by any flowery language. If anyone asked me about the happiest moment in my life, I would reply that it was that moment. It was happiness emanating from the pride that I had fought for the people as a son of the people, from the feeling that the people loved and trusted me and from the fact that I was in the embrace of the people.
