The East Asia Institute (EAI), in collaboration with the Korea Foundation (KF), is organizing the [KF Korea Workshop] to enhance understanding and foster empathy towards Korea among foreigners residing in Korea.

On Saturday, July 6th, a field trip program for the KF Korea Workshop was held at the National Museum of Korean History. Participants visited the museum and learned about Korea's modern and contemporary history with historians Fabien and Rachel.

We were able to understand the establishment of the Republic of Korea by examining the process and significance of the establishment of the South Korean government, the progression and brutal realities of the Korean War, the process of building the post-war national foundation on the ruins of the war, and the significance of the April 19th Revolution, which overthrew the dictatorship with the power of the people and laid the foundation for the democratization movement.
