[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jong-il] Kang Tae-woong, the Democratic Party candidate for Yongsan-gu National Assembly, is conducting the "Ahn Jung-geun Memorial Relay Campaign - We Will Not Forget" to commemorate the 110th anniversary of Ahn Jung-geun's martyrdom.


Ahn Jung-geun was executed by hanging on March 26, 1910, for the assassination of Ito Hirobumi, and 2020 marks the 110th anniversary of his martyrdom.


Kang Tae-woong, the Democratic Party candidate for Yongsan-gu, stated, "I heard the unfortunate news that the 110th anniversary memorial ceremony prepared by the 'Ahn Jung-geun Memorial Hall' was canceled due to the spread of COVID-19," and added, "I want to create an opportunity to honor Ahn Jung-geun's 110th anniversary through SNS," explaining the purpose of the campaign.


He then nominated Kim Seong-gon (Democratic Party, Gangnam-gu Gap) and Jeong Tae-ho (Democratic Party, Gwanak-gu Eul) as the next participants in the relay.


The relay is expected to continue with participation from various sectors, including Democratic Party candidates such as Kim Seong-gon (Gangnam-gu Gap), Jeong Tae-ho (Gwanak-gu Eul), Kim Ju-young (Gimpo-si Gap), Lee Soo-jin (Dongjak-gu Eul), and Kim Han-gyu (Gangnam-gu Byeong).



The "Ahn Jung-geun Memorial Campaign" initiated by Kang Tae-woong proceeds by posting memorial messages on SNS and nominating the next participant, who then posts on SNS in a relay format.
