The performers made an impressive artistic representation of the glorious path of the Korean revolution which has hastened dynamic advance of the Korean-style socialism, holding Kim Jong Il in high esteem as the top leader of the Party and flying the red flag of the Juche-type Party as ever-victorious banner.

The performance reached its climax by female solo and chorus "People Are of a Single Mind" which reflect the idea of all the people to travel one road forever following the Party, sharing their lot with it.
