Eunpyeong-gu Hosts Photo Exhibition on 'Sado Mine - History of Forced Mobilization'

Photo Exhibition Held at Eunpyeong Hanok Village Neunaduri Center from September 5 to 24

Eunpyeong-gu, Seoul (District Mayor Kim Mi-kyung) will hold a "Forced Mobilization Photo Exhibition" at the Eunpyeong Hanok Village Neunaduri Center from September 5 to 24, in collaboration with the Minjokmunje Research Institute.

The exhibition is titled "Another Site of Forced Mobilization, Sado Mine ? The History of Forced Mobilization to Remember at a World Heritage Site." It is organized as a free public exhibition to inspire local pride, the spirit of independence movements, and peace among Eunpyeong residents and students.

Eunpyeong-gu has been supporting the Minjokmunje Research Institute, an organization promoting the spirit of independence, quarterly since February this year to prepare various futures for Eunpyeong that wish for peace and unification and to create the Eunpyeong Historical and Cultural Tourism Belt.

Earlier in April, a field trip was conducted to explore the footprints from Eunpyeong-gu, including Jingwansa Temple, a representative independence movement historic site in the region, to Yeoncheon and Paju, where Gyuun Yun Gi-seop, who served as the chairman of the Provisional National Assembly of the Republic of Korea before being abducted to the North, stayed. In addition, the public exhibition related to forced mobilization will be presented to residents to reflect on the meaning of peace.

Kim Mi-kyung, Mayor of Eunpyeong-gu, said, "I deeply appreciate the efforts of the Minjokmunje Research Institute, who emphasize and work hard for the necessity of peace and unification," and added, "I hope this exhibition will be a valuable time for residents to find answers about peace and unification through viewing the exhibition."
