Professor Seo, who organized the exhibition, explained, "Last week, together with Cha Juyeong, we first released a multilingual video introducing the cultural heritage of the anti-Japanese independence movement both domestically and internationally," and added, "We chose to present the exhibits with the voice of a celebrity familiar to the public so that visitors can more easily understand the history of the anti-Japanese movement."


Cha Juyeong shared, "I hope that after watching the video, many visitors will come to the special exhibition and make good use of the docent explanations."



The National Heritage Administration and Professor Seo plan to release another multilingual video on the theme of anti-Japanese independence cultural heritage in September.
