(1)The Ministry of National Defense’s position on General Hong Beom-do’s bust
(2)We regret the controversy surrounding the relocation of the bust of the independence activist
(3)The Korea Military Academy is an organization that fosters patriotism to defend a liberal democratic Republic of Korea against communist North Korea. During the Korean War, the six seniors fought against the communist army
(4)There was a problem that this issue was not appropriate even when it was installed in the land, but the installation of General Hong Beom-do’s bust was pushed ahead without sufficient consensus, and controversy has continued since then
(5)In the course of this review, General Hong Beom-do’s bust, which had been controversial, was asked to be appropriately enshrined in the Independence Hall, the sacred place of the independence movement, rather than in the military academy
(6)General Hong Beom-do’s achievements in the independence movement through the anti-Japanese armed struggle are undeniable, and the government recognized it and awarded the Order of National Foundation in 1962, and the Ministry of National Defense has no intention of disparaging or denying it
(7)General Hong Beom-do supported the integration of independence forces centered on the Soviet Communist Party’s military council and served as a judge in the Soviet Communist Party’s Free City Disaster Trial
(8)According to a Soviet government document discovered shortly after the establishment of diplomatic relations between Korea and Russia in 1991, General Hong Beom-do’s resume to receive a pension from the Soviet government in the 1930s said he went to Moscow to meet Comrade Lenin
(9)Therefore, General Hong Beom-do fought together in the Battle of Cheongsan-ri, but Kim Jwa-jin, who refused to disarm and returned to Manchuria, went on a different path from General Lee Beom-seok
(10)In 1922, 52 Korean representatives attended the Far East National Revolutionary Organization Congress held by the Comintern International Communist Party, received a handwritten certificate from Lenin, and joined the Soviet Communist Party in 1927
(11)Therefore, it is appropriate to evaluate General Hong Beom-do’s achievements in the independence movement according to his achievements, but to evaluate the facts that he sympathized with the activities of the Soviet Communist Party
(12)In accordance with the ongoing school monument reorganization plan, the Army will create an educational environment optimized for the school’s identity of liberal democracy and fostering officers to protect the Republic of Korea
(13)Unfortunately, however, some regret the current situation in which the relocation of General Hong Beom-do’s bust is becoming a political issue by encouraging ideological war and pro-Japanese activities. Regardless of these political issues, the Army, which is in charge of military education, will establish and promote the best measures for cadet education
(14)The Ministry of National Defense will do its best to support military academies, including the Army, to honor patriotic martyrs and patriots, including the independence movement and the Korean War, and to nurture them into elite forces that defend liberal democracy
He’s a man of great independence fighter
From Hongbeomdo
I was suspicious of the communist North Korea
It’s about removing the bust
But Hong Beomdo
