Seoul through the eyes of liberty and peace

책 소개

The unification of the divided country symbolizes the reconnection of roads between the two Koreas, the connection of ocean and continent, and the creation of a new road. Before taking on a future path of unification, it would be a great idea to walk the path of history reflecting on our past lives. Jeongdong and Gwanghwamun areas that start from Sejong-daero are the best places to look back on the modern history of Korea. It was Prologue at the center of Korea’s modern happenings after the western powers entered Joseon in the late 19th century, followed by a series of events including independence movements, division, and war, industrialization and democratization. Our dreams of peaceful unification still lie in Jeongdong and Gwanghwamun areas. Therefore, a good understanding of Korea’s modern and contemporaryhistory in Jeongdong and Gwanghwamun areas will offer a glimpse of the past, the present and the future. A recent history-studying craze in Korea added popularity to books covering the historic sites of Jeongdong and Gwanghwamun as well as history-related tour programs. Almost none of them, unfortunately, successfully shed light on unification, which will create a new order for Korea and her neighbors. This book aims to look back on our past centering around Jeongdong and Gwanghwamun, while looking ahead to the future era of unification. Going for a stroll in the areas of Jeongdong and Gwanghwamun with help of this book will allow us to share our thoughts on individuals, community and people in the light of history and we hope this sharing could be a starting point of Korea’s unification based on liberty and peace
