History and Ideology in South Korea
Here are some photos of yesterday's demonstration in Incheon, linked to by this article, Gen. MacArthur Statue Spawns Korea Protest:
The women in the first photo, holding the American flags, are from the "Hwanghae Province Residents Association." Hwanghae Province is in North Korea, meaning that these women fled from the communists in the wake of the Korean War. They know from whence they speak.
The best quote from the article above comes from former South Korean U.N. Ambassador Park Keun: "Not even dogs forget their benefactors."
Be sure to check the GI Korea Blog, which will surely provide excellent analysis.

Redeemed by Our Savior, I work out my salvation with fear and trembling in Pohang, South Korea, where I live with my wife, daughter, and son and teach English at a science and technology university. Baptized a Methodist and raised a Missouri Synod Lutheran in Buffalo, NY, I spent six years as a guest of the Anglican Communion before being received by the Grace of God into the One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church on the Feast of Saint Andrew, my patron, anno domini 2002.
