Choe Jong Sun, resident of Ryonbong-dong in Sunchon, South Phyongan Province, is a patriotic woman who got all of her five daughters to become soldiers.
In their childhood, her daughters were good at their studies and singing. She had a precious dream of bringing them up as scientists and artistes.
However, at the news of Chairman Kim Jong Il’s field guidance at the Dwarf Pine Post of the Korean People’s Army, aimed at safeguarding the destiny of the country and people, on the morning of New Year’s Day in 1995, the year after the sudden loss of President Kim Il Sung, she changed her mind and made herself up to raise them to be soldiers.
While paying close attention to their studies and life, she encouraged them to be physically strong and implanted in their minds the preciousness of the country on various occasions.
The children trained their bodies and minds in those days and joined the army one after another after finishing middle school. The number of certificates of enlistment increased and the news came that they performed their military service well, and thereby her family was called “family of soldiers”.
Choe was a hard worker at job and has assisted the army for a long period. She also encouraged her daughters, who had returned home after their demob, to become labour innovators at their work.
To set an example to her children, she did many good things for the prosperity of the country even after retirement and led them to assist the army like her.
Under the concern of their mother who put national defence before their family affairs, they developed a deeper love for the country.
The country invited Choe Jong Sun as a delegate to the fourth and fifth national conferences of mothers and put her forward as a communist mother.
