Hwaseong City "Experience Liberation Day History at the Independence Movement Memorial Hall"

Hwaseong City in Gyeonggi Province will operate the '2024 Liberation Day Culture and Experience Program' at the Hwaseong Independence Movement Memorial Hall on the 15th to commemorate the 79th anniversary of Liberation Day.

This program is composed of various experiential activities that allow family visitors, including children, to learn about the activities of independence activists in the Hwaseong area and the history of liberation.

In the children's education program 'Dream of Liberation, Heroes of Hwaseong,' participants can learn about the independence activists from Hwaseong who fought for liberation, understand the meaning of Liberation Day and the Taegeukgi (Korean national flag), and create Taegeukgi string art.

On the 14th and 15th, a play experience program called 'Children's Liberation Challenge!' linked with the Seodaemun Prison History Hall's 'Seodaemun Independence Festival' will be held. The meaning of liberation is expressed through ▲board games ▲spot the difference ▲coloring activities.

The memorial hall will provide an experiential activity guide to enhance understanding of the exhibition content for visitors who make advance reservations for the children's exhibition room on Liberation Day. An event will also be held where participants who certify their program participation on social media (SNS) will receive a puzzle as a gift.

Reservations for 'Dream of Liberation, Heroes of Hwaseong' and visits to the children's exhibition room must be made in advance through the Hwaseong City Integrated Reservation System.

Jung Myung-geun, mayor of Hwaseong City, said, "To commemorate Liberation Day, we have prepared a cultural experience event that combines educational content and play so that children can easily understand the historical value of Hwaseong's independence movement and the meaning of liberation." He added, "I hope this program will be a precious time to reflect once again on the significance of Liberation Day."
