STORY: North Korea's state-run television KRT released on Saturday video of its leader Kim Jong-un touring construction sites in Pyongyang on Thursday.
The exclusive country's official news agency KCNA reported on Friday its leader Kim gave "field guidance" to workers the Kaeson Youth Park Fun Fair and set forth the tasks to be fulfilled to manage and operate the fun fair.
The agency also reported Kim visited a construction site of Changjon Street, and Ryugyong Health Complex and People's Outdoor Ice Rink.
On Thursday South Korea's Defense Ministry said North Korea was technically ready to conduct a third nuclear test at any time.
The ministry spokesman said still photos provided by a commercial satellite showed the North had already set up a device for a nuclear test.
North Korea on Tuesday intensified its war of words against the United States, vowing to strengthen its nuclear deterrent after Washington warned Pyongyang of further sanctions if it did not abandon its atomic program.
Last week, world leaders meeting in the United States said North Korea needed to adhere to international norms on nuclear issues and that it would face deeper isolation if it "continues down the path of provocation".
