At the end of July 2024 a heavy rain hit the northwestern region of the DPRK and thus thousands of dwelling houses, thousands hectares of farmland, numerous public buildings, facilities, roads and railways were submerged.

In such grave circumstances, not only the flood victims but all the people throughout the country shed tears.

Flood victims shed tears not out of worry of future and the people throughout the country shed tears not out of sympathy for the former.

Seeing the respected Comrade Kim Jong Un who personally commands rescue and evacuation of inhabitants to relieve the last person in the flood-hit area and expresses his resolution to provide the victims with better living conditions in the nearest future while looking round the flood-hit area on a small rubber boat, they shed tears of gratitude and excitement.
