[Asia News = Reporter Reakkana] Following last week's four-day ruling party session that emphasized a promise to "breakthrough head-on" a series of struggles by his country, North Korean leader Kim Jong-un watched a musical performance, state media reported Sunday.
The North's official Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) reported without providing details when the event took place. Kim and members of the Workers' Party's central leadership attended the performance by the Band of the State Affairs Commission. From Tuesday through Friday, the North held the third plenary session of the Eighth Central Committee of the Workers' Party to discuss economic challenges, including food shortages and anti-pandemic efforts.
Kim also discussed how to deal with the administration of U.S. President Joe Biden, saying his country should be ready for both dialogue and confrontation, and more importantly, confrontation amid the "fast-changing" situation on the Korean Peninsula. Wrapping up the meeting Friday, Kim said that his party will "breakthrough head-on the difficulties lying in the way of the revolution" and remain "loyal to the revolutionary idea to the end regardless of the severer difficulties it may be confronted with in the future," the KCNA reported the following day. The article also emphasized the need to repay "people's trust and expectations" by making notable achievements on a path to the improvement of their livelihoods.
