FORGET "Hail to the Chief." In North Korea, the army sing their leader's praises with a chorus of "We Will Defend General Kim Jong Un at the Cost of Our Lives," or the catchy accordion and tap-dance tune, "The Naval Port in the Evening."
Kim, the third of his line to rule North Korea, praised musical instruments made by North Korea's 1.2 million-strong army on Sunday, KCNA news agency reported.
Putting aside rising rhetoric, Kim inspected guitars and drums made by the army and said it was important to make quality instruments so soldiers could "spend their worthwhile days in the army full of militant optimism and joy," KCNA said.
Kim, "Supreme Commander" of North Korea's armed forces, also inspected overcoats for pupils at the country's top military schools and suggested style improvements, KCNA reported.
