Glory to the great leader Kim Il-Sung, dear leader Kim Jong-il and Supreme leader Kim Jong-Un! Long live the Democratic People's Republic Of Korea! ●▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ஜ۩한국어۩ஜ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬● 당은 우리의 등대 당은 투쟁의 기치 인민을 혁명에 불러 새 세계를 세웠네 백두의 슬기로 영광 떨치는 강철의 조선로동당 만세 만만세 당은 어머니의 품 당은 영원한 은인 빛나는 생명을 주고 행복에로 이끄네 인민들 한마음 뭉쳐 따르는 불패의 조선로동당 만세 만만세 당은 주체의 빛발 당은 우리 향도자 수령님 혁명위업 찬란히 빛내가네 누리에 존엄을 떨쳐 나가는 백전백승 조선로동당 만세 만만세 누리에 존엄을 떨쳐 나가는 백전백승 조선로동당 만세 만만세 ●▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ஜ۩ENGLISH۩ஜ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬● The Workers' Party of Korea (WPK) is the founding and ruling political party of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (North Korea). The WPK is the sole governing party of North Korea, although it coexists with two other legal parties making up the Democratic Front for the Reunification of the Fatherland. It was founded in 1949 with the merger of the Workers' Party of North Korea and the Workers' Party of South Korea. The WPK is organized according to the Monolithic Ideological System and the Great Leader, a system and theory conceived by Kim Yong-ju and Kim Jong-il. The highest body of the WPK is formally the Congress; however, a congress has not been convened since the 6th in 1980. Although the WPK is (in theory) organizationally similar to communist parties, in practice it is far less institutionalized and informal politics plays a larger role than usual. Institutions such as the Central Committee, the Secretariat, the Central Military Commission (CMC), the Politburo and the Presidium have much less power than that formally bestowed on them by the party's charter. Kim Jong-un is the current WPK leader, serving as First Secretary and CMC chairman. The WPK is committed to Juche, and at the 4th Conference (held in 2012) the party charter was amended to state that Kimilsungism–Kimjongilism was "the only guiding idea of the party". At the 3rd Conference (held in 2010) the WPK removed a sentence from the preamble expressing the party's commitment "to building a communist society", replacing it with a new adherence to songun (military-first politics). Party ideology has recently focused on perceived imperialist enemies of the party and state, and on explaining the Kim family's dominance of the political system.
