Student Narrative

My book was developed and inspired by the reunification of families in South Korea in 1963. The Japanese occupation and the Korean War separated more than a 100,000 families, and it wasn't 30 years later until a campaign began to find those who are missing. My flag book makes a statement that when the country comes together, so do the unbreakable ties of family blood that affects every Korean person.
