A: Hey there! Have you heard about the news recently?
B: Not yet, what's up?

A: Well, it seems like North Korea is planning a big military parade for their ruling party's 80th anniversary on October 10.
B: Really? When was the last time they did something like that?

A: The last one was in 2023, so this would be quite a while! They've been moving military equipment and vehicles around, and it looks like they'll have tens of thousands attending.
B: That sounds pretty big! Do we know if it's happening at night?

A: Yes, the South Korean Joint Chiefs of Staff say it's likely to be a nighttime event. They even spotted some satellite images showing lots of military vehicles near Pyongyang.
B: Whoa, that's intense! What about Kim Jong Un? Is he still around?

A: Oh yeah, he was recently seen overseeing an engine test for a new intercontinental ballistic missile called Hwasong-20, and he said they acquired some secret weapons too.
B: Wow, I wonder if they'll show off those new weapons during the parade.

A: Experts are definitely watching to see what they might do! By the way, it looks like some senior Chinese and Russian officials might be visiting North Korea to check out the parade.
B: That's interesting! Let's hope for peaceful events, either way. Thanks for sharing!
