It is also conducting three or more individual study sessions or explanatory group sessions a week.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In fact, the party committee of a foodstuff factory in Hyesan produced a booklet on Kim\u2019s greatness early this month, making workers read it during their morning assembly period and break times.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The party committee is also subjecting workers to daily propaganda during the ideological education sessions calling on them to \u201cstore deeply in their hearts their pride and self-respect that they live with a man of such unsurpassed greatness, and obey the party by delivering high production results.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The source said the authorities have also been carrying out aggressive so-called \u201cfront line-style political activities,\u201d running press reports on Kim\u2019s activities or articles promoting Kim\u2019s greatness at the workplace.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, North Koreans suffering from hardships from the COVID-19 pandemic are reportedly reacting poorly to the propaganda.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cIt\u2019s hard to even put food on the table, so will lessons on Kim\u2019s greatness feed us?\u201d they ask.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The source said with the exception of national holidays, the authorities have been making almost no mention of Kim Il Sung or Kim Jong Il since last year.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cEven during criticism sessions, they have been ordering people to quote only the Supreme Leader (Kim Jong Un) as a matter of principle,&#8221; he said.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In fact, North Korea has been noticeably reducing propaganda about the greatness of Kim Il Sung or Kim Jong Il on state-run broadcasts and media, except on state holidays like Kim Il Sung\u2019s birthday on Apr. 15 and Kim Jong Il\u2019s birthday on Feb. 16.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Prior to this, South Korea\u2019s National Intelligence Service also reported during a parliamentary audit last October that North Korea had removed photos of the country\u2019s two late leaders from the background at party meeting venues.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">North Korea\u2019s focus on promoting and teaching Kim\u2019s greatness suggests Kim is trying to acquire a mass base of support for his efforts to move beyond the reflected glory of his ancestors and firmly establish a revolutionary ideology of his own, as well as promote public loyalty.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i>Please direct any comments or questions about this article to dailynkenglish@uni-media.net.<\/i><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailynk.com\/20220913-2\/\"><i>Read in Korean<\/i><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>North Korea has recently stepped up ideological education aimed at teaching young people the greatness of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.
