Ahead of second Kim-Trump summit, North Korea sings praises of its national flag in new loyalty campaign
- As Kim Jong-un prepares for his second meeting with US President Donald Trump, the country is promoting a new loyalty campaign encouraging people to pledge allegiance to the national flag
- Lyrics to the song, Our National Flag, include the lines: “The flag as important as life carries the fate of our people. We will love the shining flag of our nation”

North Korea is stepping up a new loyalty campaign as leader Kim Jong-un prepares for his second summit with US President Donald Trump.
The campaign began last month with the introduction of a song in praise of the nation’s flag.
A video now being aired on state television to promote the song – called Our National Flag – shows repeated images of the flag being raised at international sports competitions and being formed by a sea of people holding up coloured lengths of cloth at a parade and rally on Kim Il Sung Square.
Other images show recent improvements in the economy and standard of living, a reflection of a current government policy shift that focuses on development and prosperity.

Lyrics to Our National Flag have been distributed widely. Large posters showing the flag and the lyrics are being displayed in factories.
