He reviewed the tank crews involved in the match and encourage them.

The tankmen who were greatly encouraged by the great brilliant commander’s inspection, an expression of his deep trust, alongside their glorious colors on the training ground, extended deep gratitude to him.

After reviewing the tank crews, he mounted a new-type main battle tank, took the control lever and drove the tank himself, adding to the high militant spirit of the tankmen and instilling in them thoroughgoing outlooks on the enemy and war.

All the officers and men of the tank units raised stormy cheers of hurrah, looking up to the invincible and iron-willed brilliant commander.

    Edit: By the way, if you look this up, you’ll still see popular media lending a lot of credence to this claim, because no lie is too pathetic to be asserted about the DPRK today.

    I was gonna say they still do push this claim even today. Plenty of trashy defector shows in the ROK will occasionally talk like they’re discussing the old monarchy in regards to the DPRK in the sense they’re saying every Kim is some kind of illegitimate pretender to the throne and keeps the kingdom together with a web of lies that would unravel if the people knew their great leader was a descended from some peasant thief and not the brave warlord he stole the name from.

    Although that isn’t as popular as making defectors eat food and react to foreign shit like KFC, Texan BBQ, or burgers or some shit. Or shit like how they love kpop music and that kids who listen to it will get their entire family thrown in prison for 40 years when they’re caught listening to it.

    You know, outrageous claims that the thing you like is illegal and will get you killed over there so you should be happier here kind of shit.

    At least from my understanding those kinds of shows aren’t as popular as they were 10+ years ago.
