Gwangju Student Independence Movement Memorial Hall

The Gwangju people with a tradition of glorious struggle are certainly not only rebelling in the South Korean era, but also the source of student independence movements that are among the three major anti-Japanese movements in North Korea. The incident was originally caused by a fight between Gwangju students and Japanese students, but it quickly expanded into anti-Japanese movements throughout the country and became the source of a larger Trinity movement in the future. There is no doubt that Gwangju must also have a free open student independence movement memorial hall, located in the rebel Gwangju ordinary high school (here is still a middle school), the memorial introduced the cause and results of the anti-Japanese movement, but they are all in Korean. Outside the memorial is the memorial tower of the student independence movement, which was built in the late days of Li Cheng.

Our English-language guide made our trip very enjoyable and we left a thorough understanding. There was a short video presentation, the museum and gift shop were cemeteries and monuments on the same site. Koreans strongly believe it will happen again if you don’t remember.

The explanations here are all in Korean, and there is a monument built by Li Cheng's late days next to it.

A famous local museum, you can learn a lot of history by visiting it.
