This year marks the 70th anniversary of the signing of the Korea-US Mutual Defense Treaty (October 1, 1953), and a special photo exhibition commemorating this milestone will be held domestically.


The National Archives of the Ministry of the Interior and Safety announced on the 4th that it will hold a nationwide touring exhibition under the theme "70 Years of Companionship, We Go Together," reviewing the history of exchanges and cooperation between Korea and the US through key photographs and promoting friendship between the two countries.

This exhibition is a domestic regional tour following special exhibitions held in Washington D.C. in April and Los Angeles in August. The special photo exhibition will be held in Daejeon, Busan, and Incheon from the 5th until November 9th, and admission is free.


This special photo exhibition allows visitors to see through photographs how Korea and the US, having overcome hardships and adversity since the Korean War, have grown from their first military alliance into a comprehensive global alliance encompassing economic, military, and cultural fields.



The National Archives expects that by widely informing the public about the historical development of Korea and the US as allied nations, this will serve as an opportunity for the Korea-US friendship to advance to a higher level.
