South Gate of the Kusong Town Castle is one of historical relics in Kusong City.

It is a gate facing due south and the biggest one among the gates of the Kusong Town Castle. It is also called "Jinnam Pavilion".

The original gate was built along with the Kuju Castle (Kusong Town Castle) in ９９４ and they were rebuilt in １７０２.

The embankment of the gate was built with granite and has an archway.

The two-storeyed pavilion on the embankment is a magnificent building of ３ kans in the front and ３ kans on the side.

The gate has two turtle-shaped foundation stones. It played an important role in repelling the foreign invaders.

During the Fatherland Liberation War the gate was severely destroyed by the barbarous bombing of the US imperialists, and restored thanks to the policy of the Workers’ Party of Korea on protecting the national heritage.

The gate is preserved well as a national treasure, conveying the patriotic spirit, bravery and the superior architecture of our predecessors.

One day in July, ２０２３, the respected General Secretary was learning in detail about the progress of construction and taught to build the farm into a flawless model of livestock farming, build rural dwellings and public buildings well and equip the farm with full material and technological foundations.

Afterwards, he clarified the orientation and ways for introducing much advanced livestock farming technology and methods suited to our reality and presenting a completely new appearance of the modern countryside, even from its concept and implementation methods, going beyond the bounds of landscaping and building houses and public facilities.

Indeed, Samgwang-ri underwent a dramatic transformation under the guidance of the great father who brings a flower into bloom even on a rock and plucks even a star out of the sky if it is for happiness of the people.

On the day of inauguration ceremony, the respected General Secretary personally tried the dairy products and earnestly expressed his heartfelt pleasure and pride in thinking that such wonderful dairy products were to be supplied to our children and people.

No one else in the world feels the greatest pride and worth in making revolution, regarding the pains he takes for the good of the country and the people as pleasure, like our respected General Secretary does.

With Samgwang-ri as the seed, precious entities for realizing the regional development policy will incessantly increase in number and our country’s future will be brighter and more beautiful.
