The Chollima Movement (Hangul: 천리마운동; Hanja: 千里馬運動) was a state-sponsored Stakhanovite movement in North Korea (DPRK) intended to promote rapid economic development. Launched in 1956, the movement emphasized "ideological incentives to work harder" and the personal guidance of Kim Il-Sung rather than rational modes of economic management.
