Museum of Japanese Colonial History in Korea

The Museum of Japanese Colonial History in Korea (Korean: 식민지역사박물관) is a privately owned history museum in the Yongsan District of Seoul, South Korea. Its collections cover the period between 1910 and 1945 when Korea was under Japanese rule. The museum is operated by Center for Historical Truth and Justice. Collections The museum's permanent collection comprises over 70,000 artifacts from the colonial period. It has a full original copy of the Korean Declaration of Independence. The museum also has a copy of the autobiography of Kim Ku: the Diary of Kim Ku. Most of the collection consists of the everyday lives of normal people during the colonial period. A portion of the museum discusses ethnic Korean collaborators with the Japanese colonial regime. History The museum is the first to be fully privately funded in South Korea. The museum was established 11 years after it was first proposed, and cost ₩5.5 billion ($5,000,000). ₩1.5 billion was raised by the donations of over 4,800 private citizens. ₩103 million came from Japanese donors. Of the total cost, ₩3.3 billion was secured by the time of the museum's establishment, and the rest was owed to lenders. The museum was established in the Yongsan District of Seoul on August 29, 2018. By the time of the museum's establishment, they had digitized 60% of their collection. The museum was created by the organization Center for Historical Truth and Justice (CHTJ), which was established in 1991. The organization has since put significant effort in documenting people or groups that collaborated with the Japanese in committing human rights abuses. Before it had a museum, the CHTJ made a number of temporary exhibitions. Despite being made hastily, the exhibitions received a highly positive reception, with some even being shown in Pyongyang, North Korea. Between 1995 and 2015, the CHTJ created over 30. In 2011, they announced their intent to create a permanent exhibition space. However, the group's stance against collaborators put it at odds with the previous conservative governments in South Korea. Kang, Lee, and Kim noted that South Korean conservatives are generally considered to portray the Japanese colonial period in a more positive light. Park Chung Hee, a landmark conservative president in South Korean history, features prominently in the CHTJ's displays on collaborators with the Japanese.

Ssanggyesa

Ssanggyesa (Korean: 쌍계사) is a head temple of the Jogye Order of Korean Buddhism. It is located on the southern slopes of Jirisan, southwest of sacred Samshin-bong Peak in the Hwagye-dong Valley of Hwagae-myeon, Hadong County, in the province of Gyeongsangnam-do, South Korea. The temple was founded in 722 by two disciples of Uisang named Sambeop and Daebi. It is said that they were guided to the location by a Jiri-sanshin in the form of a tiger after being instructed by him in dreams to look for a site where arrowroot flowers blossomed through the snow. They had travelled to China for study and returned with the skull of and a portrait of "Yukcho" (Hui-neng, the Sixth Patriarch of Seon [Zen] Buddhism), which they respectively buried under the Main Hall and enshrined in it (the skull was later dug up and enshrined in a stone pagoda, which is still there). In the 9th century, the temple was renamed "Ssanggyesa" (Twin-Streams Monastery) by Jingam (Meditation Master Jingam seonsa, 774–850). He is also credited with creating Beompae (Korean-style Buddhist music & dance) after studying Chinese Buddhist music in Tang Dynasty China. He composed "Eosan" [Fish Mountain] with paleumryul [eight tones and rhythms] while watching fish swim in the nearby Seomjin River, and therefore, the spacious lecture pavilion still dedicated to Beompae performance and education at the front of Ssanggyesa is named Palyeong-ru. A stele dedicated to Jingam seonsa and written by Ch'oe Ch'i-wŏn still stands in the temple, designated the Republic of Korea National Treasure 47. Most of the rest of the temple dates to the 17th century or after that because all its buildings were burned to the ground by Japanese invaders during the Seven Year War.

Ssanggye sa

Ssanggye sa (kor. 쌍계사, pol. Klasztor Bliźniaczych Strumieni) – koreański klasztor, w którym rozwinęła się grupa przekazu zwana Okch’ŏn osan. Historia klasztoru Klasztor został założony przez dwóch mnichów sŏn Sambŏpa i Daebiego w dolinie Hwangok na południowym zboczu góry Chiri. Nazwali go Okch’ŏn sa, co dało początek linii przekazu nazwanej od nazwy klasztoru. Według legendy mnich Sambŏp udał się do Chin, aby zostać uczniem VI Patriarchy szkoły chan Huinenga. Niestety okazało się, że Huineng już zmarł (w 713 roku), jednak Sambŏp był tak rozczarowany, że wykradł zabalsamowaną głowę Patriarchy i powrócił do Shilli. Miał wtedy sen, w którym jakiś starszy mnich powiedział mu, że powinien poszukać miejsca na górze Chiri, w którym kwiaty wyrastające z kłączy (Curcuma angustifolia) rozkwitają w śniegu w pachnącej dolinie. W 835 roku mnich Chingam Hyejo (774–850), uczeń Yanguana Qi’ana, powrócił do Korei, odbudował podupadły klasztor i znacznie go rozbudował, nadając nazwę Ssanggye. Wybudował także Gmach Głowy Szóstego Patriarchy, w którym przechowano relikwię. Klasztor został zniszczony podczas japońskiej inwazji na Koreę w roku 1592. W 1641 r. został odbudowany przez Pyŏgama Kaksŏnga, nauczyciela mistrza Paekgoka Ch’ŏnŭnga (1617–1680). Obecnie klasztor położony jest na terenie Parku Narodowego góry Jiri. Ssanggye jest klasztorem parafialnym szkoły chogye, który administruje 51 innymi klasztorami.

Handong Global University

Handong Global University (Korean: 한동대학교; Hanja: 韓東大學校) is a private evangelical four-year university located in Pohang, North Gyeongsang, South Korea, with a campus of approximately 200 acres (0.81 km2). History The university was founded in December 1994. The founder, Song Tae-Hun, was an owner of a medium-sized company, and donated land and funds to establish a Christian university. He invited Kim Young-gil, a Christian leader who was formerly a NASA research scientist and a professor at Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST). The founder's company went bankrupt while Kim was recruiting the first professors and students. The university also met local opposition from Pohang citizens who expected the university to serve primarily Pohang residents. When it became known that the university would be a Christian university, recruiting students from all over Korea, many Pohang residents opposed its establishment. This led to lawsuits, in one of which Kim was accused of having used government subsidies for purposes which had not been officially approved. He was acquitted after spending 56 days in prison. In 2007 Handong University joined the University Twinning and Networking (UNITWIN) program, an initiative of UNESCO. The university was selected as an "Advanced College Education (ACE)" institution by the Korean Ministry of Education in 2010 and 2011. It was nominated as one of the 10 United Nations Academic Impact (UNAI) hub universities in 2010. As the UNAI global hub for capacity-building in higher education, the university broke ground in 2017 for the Ban Ki-moon Global Education Institute (GEI). In 2014, Chang Soon-Heung became the second president and announced new primary objectives for the university, framed as "Ten World-Changing Projects". Dosung Choi became the third president of Handong Global University in 2022.
