In celebration of the Three Days, actor Song Hye-gyo and Sungshin Women's University professor Seo Gyeong-deok donated 10,000 copies of the guidebook to the Korean Cultural Center in Los Angeles.
This guide was produced as part of a donation campaign for the history guide of the Korean independence movement by cities around the world, and this is the fifth donation after Shanghai, Tokyo, and Paris.
In particular, it was produced in both Korean and English, and it introduces the history of the independence movement in Los Angeles (LA) in the United States to make it easy for everyone, regardless of age or sex, to understand in full color.
This guide explains in detail the Korean People's Association and the memorial hall, the old house where the Ahn Chang-ho family lived, the place related to Dosan Ahn Chang-ho in Los Angeles, and the Rosedale Park Cemetery.
Prof. Seo, who planned this guide, said, "With the influence of the Korean Wave, foreigners are very interested in the history of Korea, and I hope that it will help to inform overseas Koreans and international students a little about the history of the independence movement in Los Angeles."
He added, "The situation of the relics of the independence movement remaining overseas due to the corona 19 outbreak in the world is not very good. I think it is time for us to pay more attention," he added.
Professor Seo Gyeong-deok and Song Hye-gyo have consistently donated Korean guides, Korean signs, and relief works to 26 overseas sites on each historic anniversary for the past 10 years.
