(Seoul = Yonhap News) Reporter Kwon Soo-hyun = To commemorate the 100th anniversary of the formation of the Alliance to Overthrow Imperialism (abbreviated as T.C), North Korea placed a wreath at the cemetery of anti-Japanese martyrs and held various commemorative events in various places.

The Korean Central News Agency reported on the 18th that a wreath-laying ceremony was held at the Taesongsan Revolutionary Martyrs’ Tomb in Pyongyang on the 17th, the 100th anniversary of the formation of the Overthrow Imperialist Alliance.

Prime Minister Park Tae-sung and other party and government executives, Party Central Committee officials, provincial and central agencies, Pyongyang City Party and district party officials, and faculty and students of Mangyongdae Revolutionary Academy and Chilgol Revolutionary Academy participated in laying wreaths.

At the event, following the playing of the North Korean national anthem, wreaths were laid in the names of the Central Committee of the Workers' Party, the State Affairs Commission, the Presidium of the Supreme People's Assembly, and the Cabinet, the news agency reported.

On the 90th anniversary in 2016, Chairman Kim Jong-un sent a wreath to the tombs of martyrs, but this time, the wreath in Chairman Kim's name was not mentioned in the report.

The secretary and executives of the Party Central Committee visited the Korean Revolution Museum on the same day.

The Rodong Sinmun reported that they strengthened their determination to inherit the revolutionary spirit of the first generation of revolutionaries and pledged to complete the revolution by loyally upholding Chairman Kim Jong-un's ideology and leadership.

The Rodong Sinmun reported that a Nojak research presentation meeting, a virtue presentation meeting, and an oratory meeting were held in various parts of North Korea to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the overthrow of imperialism.

A concert by the National Symphony Orchestra was held at Pyongyang's Moranbong Theater and a commemorative performance was held at the National Symphony Orchestra's Magic Theater.

In addition, workers from all walks of life placed flower baskets at Mansudae Hill and the statues of Kim Il-sung and Kim Jong-il in various places, and observers also visited the Party Founding Historic Site.

North Korea claims that Kim Il-sung formed the Overthrow Imperialism Alliance in Hwajeon, China on October 17, 1926, when he was 14 years old, and promotes this organization as 'the root of the Workers' Party and the origin of Songun.'
