[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Ji-eun] Kim Jong-un, General Secretary of the Workers' Party, who presided over the 3rd plenary meeting held over four days from the 15th to the 18th, reaffirmed his determination to resolve the "livelihood difficulties" while watching the State Affairs Commission Orchestra performance.

According to a report by the Korean Central News Agency on the 20th, General Secretary Kim watched the State Affairs Commission Orchestra performance together with members of the Party Central Leadership.

The exact date of the viewing was not specified, but considering that the plenary meeting was held from the 15th to the 18th, it appears to have taken place on the 18th or the day before. Photos of General Secretary Kim watching the performance were not published with the article, and the identities of those who watched the performance together were not clearly stated.

The Korean Central News Agency reported that the performance reflected the greatness of General Secretary Kim and the Party Central Committee, who prepared practical guidelines and policies through the four-day 3rd plenary meeting.

General Secretary Kim expressed gratitude to the performers of the artistic performance and stated, "The participants of the plenary meeting will hold firmly to the unwavering creed of the ideology of 'Yi Min Wi Cheon' (putting the people first), unity of one mind, and self-reliance, becoming true revolutionaries who struggle for our great country and people, and will guarantee the brilliant implementation of our Party's struggle guidelines with innovative achievements."

Considering that General Secretary Kim unusually mentioned the food shortage issue at this plenary meeting and declared that "we will overcome the difficult situation," it seems he once again emphasized his determination to resolve the livelihood problems.
