A Considerate Leader

One March day in Juche 103 (2014), the respected Comrade Kim Jong Un visited the Ryugyong Dental Hospital.

Surprised by his sudden visit, the crowd burst into cheers. Acknowledging the cheering crowd, he looked round the hospital. When he entered a treatment room, an old woman under treatment hastily stood up to make a deep bow to him.

Helping her to her feet, he asked her what was wrong with her teeth and requested a doctor to take good care of her.

Greeted by another old woman, he told her to receive successful treatment.

When he came down to the lounge on the ground floor, another moving scene was unfolded. 

The hospital staff and outpatients surrounded him, shouting “Hurrah!” At that time a child ran up to him and clung to his sleeves.

He bent to embrace the child and called its mum to him. Asking her what her husband was, he stroked her child on the cheek. And he hoped that her child would recover as early as possible.
