In April 1965, the great leader Comrade Kim Il Sung (1912-1994) paid a state visit to Indonesia. While having a talk with Indonesian President, he came to know that the wife of the then Indonesian charge d’affaires ad interim in the DPRK gave birth to a daughter in Pyongyang, and that it was not yet named.
The charge d’affaires ad interim and the Indonesian President asked Kim Il Sung to name the baby. Saying that the birth of a lovely daughter to the family of an Indonesian diplomat working in his country was as good as a beautiful flower blooming on the road of the DPRK-Indonesia friendship, he named the baby Chinsonnyo Moran.
Time flied, and Moran grew up to enter a university. She wrote a letter to Kim Il Sung, who sent a reply letter and gifts to her in the hope that she would study hard in good health to become an excellent talent for her country and people.
In September 1983, President Kim Il Sung invited Moran and her mother to visit the DPRK. He had a photo taken and talked with them in a family atmosphere and presented them with gifts. He inquired about Moran’s studies and life and her hope. And he hoped that she would grow up well like a full-blown peony while working hard in good health, and encouraged her to become a fine official serving her people.
“Today is the happiest day in my life,” said Moran after the meeting. “Even if I lived for a hundred years, there would never be such a pleasant day. The President is so benevolent that he treated me as his own daughter. The benevolent great leader President Kim Il Sung is my eternal father.”
Seven years later, Moran was to get married. Upon the news, the President sent her wedding gifts in his name such as an art screen Moran Hill, a silver casket and cloth for a dress.
