On June 7, 1920, the Independent Army Coalition, led by General Hong Beom-do, inducted Japanese troops into the valley of Bong-O-dong, North Korea, and killed over 150 people.

It was a victory that opened the beginning of the Provisional Government's Independence War and four months later led to the Battle of Cheongsan-ri.

However, General Hong died and was buried in 1943 in Kazakhstan, who was forced to move during the Stalinist regime without seeing liberation.

During a visit to Kazakhstan last year, President Moon Jae-in discussed the repatriation of General Hong's remains and announced the agreement on the March 1st this year.

In particular, he said that it was the victory of an independent army composed of ordinary people, including farmers and workers, including General Hong, who is from his mother's home.

The government held the ceremony of the 100th anniversary of the victory of Bong O-Dong with Prime Minister Chung Se-Kyun attending, and the National Veterans Affairs Office made a video of General Hong in English to promote the world.

The Blue House says the remains of General Hong will be repaid as soon as President Tokayev's visit to Kazakhstan is delayed.
