북, 오늘 당창건일 열병식…김정은 연설•신형 ICBM 공개 '주목'<br /><br />North Korea celebrates October 10th as the anniversary of the ruling Workers' Party.<br />It's reported the regime may hold a military parade to celebrate the occasion, but no movement yet.<br />Our Kim Dami is standing by on the line.<br />Dami, if the parade did happen, when would it take place?<br />Right Daniel, all eyes are now on whether the North will hold a military parade to mark its special day, but no specific details, including time, are known.<br />If it does take place, it will be the first of its kind since September 2018 when the regime celebrated the 70th anniversary of its founding.<br />Just like the past two military parades, Saturday's event is expected to be recorded, not live.<br />Even during the COVID-19 pandemic, the regime has been actively preparing for the day.<br />Earlier this month, the U.S.-based North Korea-monitoring website 38 North released satellite imagery showing signs of the North's rehearsals for the parade.<br />And the North tends to celebrate every fifth or tenth anniversary with larger-scale events like missile launches and troop parades.<br />So it's highly likely that the communist regime will showcase new strategic weapons such as an intercontinental ballistic missile or a submarine-launched ballistic missile.<br />Watchers note that North Korean leader Kim Jong-un may deliver a speech to motivate and encourage the North Korean people struggling due to economic difficulties and the COVID-19 pandemic.<br />Plus, ahead of the U.S. November election, Kim may also send messages to Washington and Seoul.<br />That's all from me. Back to you, Daniel.<br />
