Improperly honoring the sacred memorial day on which Korea declared its Independence address by South Korean President Yoon praising Japan was a mistake. The words about Japan being a cooperative partner were a terrible thing for any Korean to say on March First. It was an insult of shameful words to the Independence Movement Patriots and their families. I was shocked to hear it when I watched President Yoon’s speech.
Reading the full text and the news today made me sad and disappointed. How could these words be spoken in front of pictures of Korea’s heroes and Dosan? How could any Korean disrespect Dosan and all of the courageous patriots like this?
President Yoon also overlooks the deep hand of Americans in the illegal Annexation of Korea by Japan. Harvard University alumni are an example of pro-Japanese Americans plotting to collapse the Korean Bank and weaken Korea’s government at the end of the Joseon Dynasty. Many of the Japanese Imperialists who planned the demise of Korea were also Harvard University Alumni. President Obama and President Trump were and are pro-Japanese when it comes to Korea.
Koreans have to protect their history and heritage, not disrespect patriots who saved Korea from evil Japanese. Japan cannot continue to control Korea’s historical narrative.
