Among the audience were Choe Ryong Hae, Kim Tok Hun and other senior Party and government officials, labour innovators and persons of merit, officials and working people in Pyongyang and members of the congratulatory group of Koreans in Japan.

The performers showed the joy of people greeting the auspicious holiday with elegant and soft rhythms and elaborate technical movements.

In such numbers as collective performances "White Hoarfrost" and "The Sound of a Horse's Hooves in Mt Paektu", they displayed their skilful skating techniques to the tune of lyrical, light and dynamic melodies.

Collective numbers, "The Motherland and My Destiny" and "We Are Koreans" depicted in a new and distinctive way, left a deep impression on the audience.
