The Organization and Guidance Department (OGD), created in 1946,[1] is a department of the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea (WPK), the ruling party of North Korea. Its central responsibility is to implement the directives and teachings of the Suryeongs [Great Leaders], Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il.[2][3] The department was initially a department within the WPK General Affairs Department, but eventually spun off and was established at the 3rd Plenary Session of the 2nd Central Committee as the Organization Committee.[4]
