The schoolchildren's art troupe of the Mangyongdae Schoolchildren's Palace visited Primorsky Krai of Russia from May 2 to 12 and returned home after successfully finishing its performance activities.

During the visit, the schoolchildren's art troupe, which gave the premiere at the Primorsky Krai Branch of the Mariinsky Theatre, gave performances in Vladivostok and Artyom cities again amid the admiration of people, thus showing well the features of the proud new generations of Juche Korea.

The schoolchildren fully demonstrated their artistic talents, which they have cultivated to the full under the warm care of the respected fatherly Marshal Kim Jong Un who spares nothing for the rising generations, in such colourful numbers as prologue "We Are the Happiest in the World", duet "Our Father Is the Best" and female solo "My Country Is the Best".

The performers sang such Russian songs as "Katyusha" and "Happy Birthday" well to add the feeling of friendship to the audience. Their performances evoked a great response from the Russian people.

The deputy prime minister of the Primorsky Krai government and concurrently minister of Culture, the mayor of Vladivostok City and others repeatedly expressed their thanks to the performers for their wonderful performances, saying that all inhabitants of Primorsky Krai are excited by the performances of the young art troupe, that they pay their respects to the respected Comrade Kim Jong Un who brought up such outstanding students and that the future of the DPRK loving the rising generation and attaching importance to education is very bright.

Citizens from all walks of life and students enthusiastically applauded them whenever each number ended, and a veteran impressed by the performance of the schoolchildren's art troupe came on the stage to give his medal to a child and sincerely congratulated them on their performance success.

They unanimously praised the schoolchildren of the Korean art troupe who gave the excellent performances as art prodigies.
