When he started his work at the Central Committee of the WPK, he exerted his great efforts on developing the Juche idea founded by President Kim Il Sung, father of socialist Korea, as required by the times and the developing revolution and thus performed great exploits in the field of ideology and theory of the party.

He will always be alive in the hearts of the Korean people.
