background
"Juche Joseon's first hydrogen bomb test was completely successful"

When North Korea provoked its fourth nuclear test in January 2016,

In early March, the U.N. Security Council adopted a resolution on super-strong sanctions against North Korea.

The day after the sanctions resolution was adopted, Kim Jong-un guided test firing of a new large-caliber multiple rocket launcher.

"Dear comrade Kim Jong-un has guided the test firing of a new large-caliber multiple rocket launcher."

Soon after, on March 6, Kim Jong-un convened responsible workers from the party and the military.

At that time, a statement containing Kim Jong-un's instructions was published on April 10, 2017, more than a year later.

The time of publication was one month after the impeachment trial of President Park Geun Hye and one month before the inauguration of the Moon Jae In administration.

"Let's make the whole party and the whole society Kim Il Sung-Kim Jong Il more attentive!" ``We should implement the principle of self-reliance to strengthen the power of the independent defense industry."
The key point of the statement on page 13 of
is to take over the spirit of Kim Il-sung and Kim Jong-il despite the difficult situation of sanctions against North Korea and not to compromise with foreign powers, but to build up national defense to counter them.

Kim Jong-un mentioned several examples, saying that Kim Il-sung and Kim Jong-il overcame the temptation of reform and opening up and overcame hardships by self-rehabilitation.

In particular, he emphasized, "We must forever hold on to 'self-reliance firstism' based on Kim Il-sung Kim Jong-il's revolutionary ideas."

[CEO Lee Yoon-gul / North Korea Strategic Information Service Center: Forever, he will continue this way until he completes his nuclear armament. He once again declared that he would never give up on the principle of self-help, in other words, nuclear force.]

The statement shows that Kim Jong-un, unlike his predecessors, is paying considerable attention to the public opinion of the people.

"As we save money on the defense industry, we have not been able to fully feed the people and not properly feed the children candy"

"I published an important report on guiding the test firing of a new large-caliber multiple rocket launcher to disclose the power of the weapon in detail, to inform the people of North Korea's capabilities."

"The propaganda sector should introduce and promote the achievements made in the defense industry."
The
Kim Jong-un statement contains a strategy to "strengthen propaganda and public relations activities to appease the public suffering from economic difficulties" in the process, along with the will to "live only by nuclear force."
