2Nd Annual Korean War Veterans Youth Corps Convention 2014 Unsung Heroes July 25Th-28Th, 2014 / Washington D.C 2nd Annual Korean War Veterans Youth Corps Convention 2014 Unsung Heroes July 25th-28th, 2014 / Washington D.C. Hosted by Korean War Legacy Foundation, Inc. 2014 Second Annual KWVYC Convention - Unsung Heroes Welcoming Remarks On the morning of July 27, 2012, commemorating the 59th Anniversary of the Korean War Armistice, I was sitting with many heroes of the Korean War and their families in the Amphitheater of Arlington National Cemetery. Four aircrafts tore through the sky, evoking memories of the shrieks and cheers of soldiers during the 3-year war. At that moment, an important question struck me: “What will be remembered 10 or 20 years from now? Who will be on these benches?” I realized we needed to establish a group of descendants of Korean War Veterans to fill these seats and to take the podium to pass along the legacy of the Korean War. In October 2012, I attended the KWVA Annual Convention in St. Louis, MO, and proposed the idea of forming the KWVs’ descendant organization at the board meeting (Jongwoo Han, Greybeards, Nov/Dec, vol. 26, no. 6). This is how the seed of the KWV Youth Corps was planted. The first convention was launched in 2013 with an enduring theme of: “What good can come out of the Korean War?” Korea’s simultaneous achievement of unprecedentedly rapid economic development substantive democracy since the early 1960s clearly demonstrates the outcome of the noble sacrifice & honorable service of Korean War Veterans. This 2nd convention has two main, but closely related projects: learning how lightly the Korean War is covered in American history textbooks, and how the KWV Youth Corps can contribute to the reversal of such a sad reality. In order to challenge the status quo, our youth will hear from Samantha Fraser, a high school teacher & granddaughter of a KWV Harold L. Maples, on the current coverage of the Korean War in our classrooms. Furthermore, they will work with their heroes to learn how to interview & collect witness & memorabilia, which can be used as classroom materials on the Korean War through the Korean War Veterans Digital Memorial website. This 2nd convention is the first work of the KWV YC leadership led by President Dayne Weber, and I have no doubt that the 3rd Convention will be much bigger and even more fruitful. I want to congratulate the leadership for making its first hard, but sincere step for a long journey. I also want to express my sincere gratitude to the Ministry of Patriots & Veterans Affairs of the Republic of Korea for its confidence & support for this significant task. Two members of Korea’s National Assembly, Sungkull Yoo & Hyunmee Kim, have been essential in my efforts to secure a sound financial basis for this project. Finally, I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to the CEO of Pantech C&I, Byeong-yeop Park, for his continuous support for the Korean War Legacy Foundation and the KWVYC. In the 2015 convention, I envision more youth members and history teachers presenting more stories of “unsung heroes” so that our younger generations know what the brave young men & women from all the 21 countries that participated in the war accomplished: a global freedom alliance beyond the miracle in the Han River. Looking forward to witnessing more good things coming out of the KWVYC, Respectfully Yours, Jongwoo Han, President, Korean War Legacy Foundation, Inc. The Korean War Legacy Foundation, Inc. / (315) 480-9427 / PO Box 808, Syracuse, NY 13214-0808 2 2014 Second Annual KWVYC Convention - Unsung Heroes Hello and Welcome! I am so excited to welcome you all to Washington, D.C. for the Korean War Veterans Youth Corps’ 2nd Annual Convention, Unsung Heroes. We are here to tell the stories of the veterans who have for too long been forgotten. We all should strive to make sure the Korean War no longer remains forgotten, as it is remembered in our hearts and minds. Our weekend is filled with fun and exciting events that I hope you will enjoy. Our two main programs incorporate both points of our mission. Our activities on Saturday will help us get to know the stories of the KWVs who fought bravely during the war. We will spend time with veterans, commemorating the signing of the Armistice that brought an end to conflict on the Korean Peninsula. We will then learn how to interview the veterans so that we can preserve their stories and legacies for generations to come. Interviewing and collecting memorabilia is a very important part of membership in the KWVYC, so please learn and make the most of the time you spend with the KWVs. On Sunday, we will spend time fulfilling the second part of our mission – educating future generations about the lessons of the Korean War. The Korean War is grossly underrepresented in history books, especially here in the United States. The History Book Project has wonderful potential to help us expand the resources available to teachers, so we can make it easy for them to teach the Korean War. We need to spread our knowledge of the sacrifices our heroes made so that others can understand how much was given up to save Korea. Dr. Jongwoo Han did the wonderful job of laying the groundwork for our organization. Now it is our time to take the reins and lead this organization into the future. You have the unique opportunity to truly make a difference. You can make a difference within this organization, shaping its direction. You can make a difference in the world, by sharing the stories of the Korean War so that others may learn to prevent future conflict by understanding the lessons from the Korean War. The Korean War was a global affair, bringing soldiers and medical aid from 21 different nations. Our organization has the potential to become a global force. Although we all see the world through different eyes, we have the same motivations. We all want our grandparent’s stories to be told before it is too late. Take advantage of our group’s diversity, and learn to understand different points of view. Our organization is dedicated to maintaining the legacy of our veterans, who are sadly not going to be with us for much longer. You have traveled great distances to be with us, and we have been anticipating this convention for a long time now. We are so happy to finally have you here with us. We hope that you make the best of this weekend! Please get to know each other and the veterans we will spend time with. We want you to leave motivated to carry on our legacy as the newest members of the KWVYC. Do great work, be enthusiastic, listen to the stories, and learn from each other & the veterans. Most importantly, have fun! All the best, Dayne Weber, KWVYC President The Korean War Legacy Foundation, Inc. / (315) 480-9427 / PO Box 808, Syracuse, NY 13214-0808 3 2014 Second Annual KWVYC Convention - Unsung Heroes Preface “Unsung Heroes” We, the KWV descendant generations, will preserve and carry on the legacies of the sacrifices and services of the veterans of the Korean War.

    ABSTRACT Title of Document: UNTOLD STORIES: THE OTHER KOREA Grace Pak, Master of Architecture, Spring 2015 Directed By: Professor Garth Rockcastle, Department of Architecture, Planning, and Preservation This thesis explores the dialectical tensions, ironies, and myths of North Korea, with the hope of exposing fallacies and bringing awareness to the crisis of the oppressed citizens of this hermetic country. There are discrepancies between the North Korea that most people know, and one that is lesser known, which contains the everyday stories of real people. The goal is to design a cultural landscape containing the narratives of the persecuted in an effort to promote understanding about a country that is largely misinterpreted because of the images the Kim dictatorship and international media have planted in the minds of many people. The architecture provides a ground for commentary on the truth and what can be done to change the current state of apathy, ignorance, and helplessness. Acts of violation against humanity that continue in North Korea must be stopped. The fact that the North and South must reunite to save the citizens of North Korea is a pressing issue that the South Koreans must genuinely want in order to create change. Gathering information about Korea’s history and attributes of the proposed site will reveal how time changes space, the way our memories and ideas are both temporal and timeless as they are exchanged. When we become more aware of the issues at large, it will change our indifference and help us react to the stories that are told. UNTOLD STORIES: THE OTHER KOREA By Grace J.

    JAPAN LIBRARY Outstanding books, now available in English In Japan, under the auspices of free speech and press, over 80,000 books are published every year, offering a diverse selection of literature to the nation’s readers. In this great ocean of books, we believe there are many works that should be enjoyed by not only a Japanese audience, but by a wider global audience as well. However, many such books, due to the language barrier and the limited number of translations, remain, for the most part, unread overseas. JAPAN LIBRARY is, by publishing specially selected Japanese works in English, here to introduce to the world “the diverse and multi-layered aspects of Japan and Japanese thought” and “the rich and colorful world of Japan.” With this knowledge from Japan, JAPAN LIBRARY hopes to contribute towards the creation of a universal, global knowledge. The books for JAPAN LIBRARY are hand-picked from a wide range of areas, including politics, foreign policy, social studies, culture, philosophy, and science and technology. Furthermore, by offering these works in both traditional and electronic format, JAPAN LIBRARY hopes to present a view of the real and intrinsic Japan for the world to enjoy. Japan possesses troves of timeless knowledge amassed across the ages— treasures that are distinctively Japanese that, nonetheless, transcend history and international borders. JAPAN LIBRARY is loading these treasures onto ships we call books and venturing forth into the open sea. The voyage of these books will cover great distances over time, and reach a countless number of readers across the globe. And once the voyage is complete, the treasure on board will shine anew, as these readers polish them with their own, distinctive intellects and sensibilities.

    In the Shadow of the Moon 2007 PG 109 minutes David Sington and Christopher Riley's acclaimed documentary reveals the history of the Apollo space program through interviews with the brave astronauts who lived through a paradigm-shifting chapter in world history. Devoted to President John F. Kennedy's goal of sending a man to the moon, the NASA project pushed the envelope of what was humanly possible. But the program also experienced several failures, one of which resulted in tragedy. Man on Wire 2008 PG-13 94 minutes Philippe Petit captured the world's attention in 1974 when he successfully walked across a high wire between New York's Twin Towers. This Oscar winner for Best Documentary explores the preparations that went into the stunt as well as the event and its aftermath. Obsessed with the towers even before they were fully constructed, Petit sneaked into the buildings several times to determine the equipment he needed to accomplish his daring feat. American Experience: Jonestown: The Life and Death of Peoples Temple 2006 NR 86 minutes How could one man -- Peoples Temple leader Jim Jones -- persuade 900 people to commit mass suicide by drinking cyanide-laced Kool-Aid in the jungles of Guyana? This penetrating portrait of the demented preacher attempts to answer that question. Using never- before-seen footage and audio accounts of two Jonestown survivors, documentarian Stanley Nelson paints a chilling picture of a social experiment gone horribly awry. When the Levees Broke: A Requiem in Four Acts 2006 TV-MA 3 discs Spike Lee commemorates the people of New Orleans with a four-hour epic documentary that not only recounts the events of late August 2005 but asks why they unfolded the way they did in the first place.

    A PHENOMENOLOGICAL STUDY ON THE ROLE OF JUCHE, MILITARISM, AND HUMAN RIGHTS IN THE EDUCATIONAL LIFE EXPERIENCES OF NORTH KOREAN DEFECTORS by Andrea Rakushin Lee Liberty University A Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment Of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Education Liberty University April, 2014 A PHENOMENOLOGICAL STUDY ON THE ROLE OF JUCHE, MILITARISM, AND HUMAN RIGHTS IN THE EDUCATIONAL LIFE EXPERIENCES OF NORTH KOREAN DEFECTORS by Andrea Rakushin Lee A Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment Of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Education Liberty University, Lynchburg, VA April, 2014 APPROVED BY: James Swezey, Ed.D., Committee Chair Feng Wang, Ph.D., Committee Member Minjeong Kim, Ph.D., Committee Member Scott Watson, Ph.D., Associate Dean, Advanced Programs 1 ABSTRACT This transcendental phenomenological study describes the essence of the premigration, transmigration, and postmigration educational life experiences of 15 North Korean defectors in South Korea in light of their exposure to Juche, militarism, and human rights violations. The literature review includes a theoretical framework rooted in the transformative learning theory and pertinent themes related to the educational experiences of North Korean defectors. Data was collected through a demographic survey; a timeline of primary life events; standardized, open- ended interviews; and journal entries. The central research question examined primary themes from the educational life experiences of North Korean defectors during premigration, transmigration, and postmigration. Data analysis procedures included finding significant statements, synthesizing a field journal, and creating textural and structural descriptions which led to the essence of the overall experience. Premigration themes that emerged include the importance of social status, poverty and extreme hardship, Kim family indoctrination, regular participation in saenghwal chonghwa, a variety of behaviors and interactions in the classroom, the importance of Juche and militarism, and unbalanced education.
