Song Popular among Korean Youth
Pyongyang, January 4 (KCNA) -- "March of Korean Youth" is one of the songs popular among the young Korean people. It was written by Kim Ryong Ho and composed by Kim Won Gyun in Juche 36 (1947).

The song reflects the life enjoyed by the young Korean people in new society under the leadership of President Kim Il Sung after the liberation of the country.

Many years have passed since the song was created, but it still enjoys popularity among the youth, encouraging them to perform laudable feats in socialist construction and national defense.

The joint New Year editorial calls upon the youth to distinguish themselves in the effort for the building of a thriving nation and construction of monumental edifices named after youth, singing the song.
