About 4.7 million North Korean students and workers have volunteered to join the military since Kim Jong-un threatened reprisals last week.
Over the past six days, millions of young people, including 1.2 million women volunteers, have decided to enlist in the military to protect their country from the US threat, according to the Korean Workers Party newspaper Rodong Sinmun.
On September 22, Kim Jong-un took "top-level" response measures against US President Donald Trump who threatened to "completely destroy North Korea" should they be forced to defend their allies and themselves.
The situation on the Korean peninsula has worsened due to recent launches of Pyongyang missiles and nuclear tests, all conducted in disagreement with UN Security Council resolutions.
The latest test was conducted on September 15, when North Korea launched a ballistic missile that flew over Japan before landing in the Pacific Ocean about 20 minutes after launch.
