Trials and Victory 206 Book 2. - The Birth of True Parents Ever since the Fall of the first human ancestors Adam and Eve, God wanted to complete the providence of salvation. He wanted to complete it through Jesus, whom He sent as the Messiah; however, the people of Israel and the religion of Judaism failed to fulfill their responsibility to receive him. Hence, God again sent a Savior to humankind, this time among the Korean people. The True Parents have come with this mission. Because the True Parents came to take charge of God's providence of salvation, their births were events of great significance. Accordingly, many signs accompanied their births. For instance, there was an old tree standing in front of True Father's birthplace. Shortly before he was born a golden bird flew into that tree, sang beautifully, and then left. Also before the birth of True Mother, Hong Soon-ae, True Mother's mother, received a message in a dream, "If you have a son, he will become the king of the universe; if you have a daughter, she will become the queen of the universe." On April 17, 1935, at the age of 16 (by Korean counting), True Father was tearfully praying on a mountainside when Jesus called him to complete the mission of the Messiah.

  • Korean Sovereignty Over Dokdo - Facts and Evidence
    Part II: Korean Sovereignty over Dokdo - Facts and Evidence 1. When Did Dokdo Become a Part of Korean Territory? Korean title to Dokdo dates back to the 6th century. According to the records of Samguk Sagi -(History of the Three Kingdoms), Korean sovereignty over the island was established with the incorporation of Usanguk -(“guk” means “state”) into the Kingdom of Silla, one of the three ancient kingdoms of Korea, in 512 A.D. Samguk Sagi records that in 512 A.D., Yi Sa-bu, a Silla government official, subjugated the island state on behalf of Silla. The territory of Usanguk comprised the islands of Ulleungdo and Usando -(present-day Dokdo). Historical facts surrounding this event and the establishment of Korean title to Dokdo are further buttressed by medieval Korean records: Sejong Sillok Jiriji -(Geographical Appendix to the Annals of King Sejong) and Sinjeung Dongguk Yeoji Seungnam -(Revised and Augmented Version of the Survey of the National Geography of Korea), published in 1454 and 1531 respectively. Within the two official records marking sovereign limits of the Kingdom of Joseon, Dokdo was clearly marked as belonging to Gangwon Province, one of eight provinces of the medieval Korean kingdom. It is particularly worth noting that Sinjeung Dongguk Yeoji Seungnam appends Paldo Chongdo -(Map of Eight Provinces of Korea) and Gangwondo Jido -(Map of Gangwon Province), both of which mark Ulleungdo and Dokdo as belonging to Korea’s Gangwon Province. The variety of Korean documentary and cartographical evidence naturally leads to questions to what, if any, kind of materials the Japanese have presented in challenging Korean ownership of Dokdo.

  • Time Use Patterns and the Quality of Life of the Poor and the Non-Poor in Rural Areas in Korea*
    Time Use Patterns and the Quality of Life of the Poor and the Non-poor in Rural Areas in Korea* Cho,H.K.*; Lee, K.Y.1; Lee.Y.S. 2; Kim,O.S. 3; Lee, S.M.4; Hong, D. S.5; Cho,H.S.6; Kim,Y.K.7 *Department of Family Welfare, Daegu University 1,7 Department of Consumer Studies & Resource Management, Seoul National University, 2 Department of Home Economics Education, Korea University, 3 Department of Home Economics, Korea National Open University, 4 Department of Child and Family Welfare, Woosuk University, 5Dept. of Sociology, Seoul National University,6 Department of Social Welfare ABSTRACT The purpose of this study is to compare the quality of life of the poor with the non- poor farming households by examining the patterns of time use and life satisfaction. The data were collected using time diary and questionnaire from the 369 rural households in eight provinces of the nation, which were divided into two subgroups based on their annual income, the poor and the non-poor. The questionnaire consisted of questions about the subjective satisfactions of life domains. The major findings are summarized as follows. The average age of the poor farming household respondents is 10 years higher than that of the non-poor household respondents. The average annual income of the poor farming households was only about one sixth of the non-poor. The major crops of the non-poor farming households are evenly distributed compared to those of the poor. There is no difference in time use except for non-agricultural activities between the two groups during the peak farming season, but there is a great difference during the slack season.

  • Generality and Distinctiveness of Korean Language Modernization
    2015 HARVARD-YENCHING GENERALITY AND DISTINCTIVENESS OF INSTITUTE WORKING KOREAN LANGUAGE MODERNIZATION PAPER SERIES An Yelee | Yonsei University Generality and Distinctiveness of Korean Language Modernization Yelee An Yonsei University [email protected] Abstract This present paper attempts to explore the general and unique characteristics of Korean language modernization in its early stage (1894-1910) in order to rethink the Europe-centered model of linguistic modernity. The main concern of this paper is twofold: whether the vernacularization is the essence of language modernization, and whether the phoneticism is identical to the pursuit of Westernization. It was common that the breakdown of pre-modern diglossia took place during the course of language modernization through the vernacularization; however, this does not mean that there was only one way that the conventional diglossic structure came to be dissolved. Both Europe and East Asia at large witnessed the fall of their classical language and the rise of the vernacular, whereas the Arab nations saw the evolution of the diglossia evolving into triglossia through modernizing its classical language, not the vernacular. The key factors determining the direction of language modernization were not matters of communication or culture, but rather the formation of modern national identity and power struggles. Multiple trajectories are also found when it comes to the matter of implementing phonograms. At the turn of the twentieth century in East Asia, phonetic script was considered the emblem of the civilized world, in other words, the West. The pursuit of phonograms was a shared concern in East Asia however it was only Korea that ended up implementing the phonetic script exclusively.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation o f techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which m ay appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image andduplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated w ith a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.
