The Samjiyon Theatre on the shore of the picturesque Pothong River is a live-sound theatre.

The respected Comrade Kim Jong Un visited the theatre just before its inauguration in October 2018.

Looking at the view of the renovated theatre, he said with great pleasure that the people would be very pleased to see it.

And in different positions of the round live-sound concert hall of the theatre he heard the performance of the Samjiyon Orchestra in person to compare the acoustic characteristics.

He said with great delight that the sound of the concert hall is really good and that the live sounds of the musical instruments are heard as they are. And he expressed great satisfaction, saying it is a great innovation in the field of architectural acoustic and a successful theatre.

This was built into a live-sound theatre of Korean style thanks to his wise leadership.

In January 2018 Kim Jong Un conceived a plan to rebuild the original theatre into an exclusive one of orchestra with perfect characteristics as a live-sound theatre which is wonderful in architectural beauty.

Saying it is important to thoroughly meet the acoustic demand first at the stage of design, he organized experienced designers and powerful construction force.

He examined more than 400 miniatures and gave field guidance to the construction site on eight occasions.

When he called at the theatre, he carefully measured the live sound made by the orchestra in its performance and presented a number of good ideas to retain the characteristics of the live-sound theatre.

It was his noble intention to provide the people with an art theatre with the best acoustic conditions based on modern science and technology.

Today, the Samjiyon Theatre is fully displaying its vitality as an edifice of culture and arts loved by people and artistes.
