Gwangju Uprising Overthrown By Moon Jae-In's 5.18 Tear: Exposing The Politics Of False Narratives In South Korea (Untold Story Of Gwangju Uprising) (Korean Edition)

The primary language of the book entitled Gwangju Uprising Overthrown by Moon Jae-in's 5·18 Tear is Korean language with limited English texts. The two pages of English text close to the end of Prologue indicate the ideological background of Strongman Moon—a response to what CNN reporter Paula Hancocks calls his legacy. Non-Korean speaking readers may find the 125 pictures and illustrations are helpful for catching the key points of hot and crucial issues the book deals with. The book is a new look into the two major events of modern Korean history: Impeachment by fraud in 2017 and 5.18 Gwangju Uprising in 1980. Chapter One deals with the question everyone asks—how it happened that the South Korean President Park Geun-hye was impeached by fraud? The book “Gwangju Uprising Overthrown by Moon Jae-in's 5·18 Tear” comes with the two major topics of modern Korean history: Impeachment by fraud in 2017 and 5.18 Gwangju Uprising in 1980. While the larger part of the current volume is about the new facts of Gwangju Uprising, the first 82 pages in Chapter One deals with the question everyone asks—how it happened that the South Korean President Park Geun-hye was impeached by fraud. Strongman Moon Jae-in, who took the political advantage of President Park's impeachment by fraud, justifies it by talking about ‘candlelight revolution.’ But what is candlelight revolution? One cannot grasp what it implies without first knowing 5.18 Gwangju Uprising. What connects the pro-North Korean group's term ‘candlelight revolution’ to 5.18 Gwangju Uprising is a narrative, which the book reveals as a false narrative. So, what really happened in South Korea in 2017? ‘Impeachment by fraud’ or ‘candlelight revolution’? It largely depends on one's perspective of 5.18 Gwangju Uprising although there is a time gap of 38 years. 2018? ?? ????? 5·18 ??? ??? ?????? 2018? 5·18 ?? ??? ?? ??? ‘??’????? ‘?? ??’? ????? ??? ?? ????? ?? ???. ??? ?? ????? ?? ??? ??? ?? ??? ‘?? ??’? ????? ???. ?1? ?? ??(Impeachment by Fraud)? ? 82??? ???? ??. ????? 2017?? ????? ??? ????? ‘?? ??’??? ??, ?? ????? ‘????’??? ??. ?? ?? ? ??? ???? ???? ?? 1??? ?? ? ???.
