DPRK top leader Kim Jong Il watches art performance
6/11/2008 18:01

Top leader of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) Kim Jong Il has watched an art performance recently, the official daily paper Rodong Sinmun said today.
This is the third report by DPRK media on Kim's appearance in November.
But the report did not mention the date when Kim watched the performance by artists of the Merited State Chorus, "Unhasu," the Mansudae Art Troupe, the Phibada Opera Troupe and the National Art Troupe.
Kim, at the end of the performance, waved to the cheering performers and audience.
He expressed his expectations and belief that all the artists would continue their art activities to encourage the army and people in their drive to build a "great, prosperous and powerful nation."
The country's official news agency KCNA also reported the event.
DPRK'S State media reported earlier this month that Kim watched a football match and visited military units.
