[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Isul] Director Yoon Je-kyun and Professor Seo Kyung-duk are conducting the 'Ahn Jung-geun Campaign.'

On the 7th, CJ ENM stated, "We focused on promoting Ahn Jung-geun both online and offline through the production of videos dealing with the historical facts of Ahn Jung-geun's Harbin assassination and talk concerts, and we plan to continue preparing projects that share the spirit of Ahn Jung-geun in the future."

Director Yoon is about to release the film Hero, which depicts the unforgettable last year of Ahn Jung-geun, who assassinated Ito Hirobumi in Harbin in October 1909, was sentenced to death by a Japanese court, and died, from the time he was preparing for the act until his final moments. Professor Seo has been promoting Ahn Jung-geun worldwide through various cultural contents, including creating a large-scale handprint banner of Ahn Jung-geun with the participation of 30,000 citizens.

Director Yoon said, "I joined this campaign because I believe it is an opportunity for many citizens to learn about the hidden aspects of Ahn Jung-geun," adding, "I want to contribute even a small part to the reappraisal of Ahn Jung-geun, a great independence activist and thinker."

Professor Seo expressed, "I want to contribute in some way to raising nationwide interest in finding the remains of Ahn Jung-geun, whose time is running out."
