MADHON NEWS, PYONGYANG NORTH KOREA - Monday marks what would be the 73rd birthday of the much beloved North Korean leader Kim Jong-il, who passed away in December 2011. So naturally, the country celebrated with a variety of festivities, including the ninth annual Kimjongilia exhibition held in Pyongyang, featuring flowers named after the former dictator.

Other highlights of the revelry included a hydrogymnastics performance, an ice sculpture festival, one hell of a large meeting — and, as a birthday gift to the rest of us, the release of more Kim Jong-un photos. KCNA, North Korea's Central News Agency, published pictures of Kim Jong-un touring various construction sites and taking a ride in his newly remodeled presidential airplane.
