JUNE%20STRUGGLE%20CULTURAL%20PROJECT.pptx
This was such an engaging historical event that conjured up so many emotions within me when I was researching about the events that took place in 1987. After I finished the project, I watched a movie called 1987: When the Day Comes, that deals with the events that led to the outburst from the Korean people in reaction to the corrupt political scheming of the dictatorship-like government at that time. My project focuses on what led to the June Democratic Movement that had over a million people participating in the demonstrations against the government. What made the project so engaging for me was because I was able to see through the lens of what my parents had gone through when they were around my age. My parents are scared to watch movies that deal with the events that took place in 1987 because it is just too real for them and they don't want to be reminded of the pain and suffering that the Korean people had to go through.
