[theqoo] REGARDING SNOWDROP'S LEAD NAMES
Among the characters, Kye Bun Ok (reminiscent of Kim Ok Bun's name, a case where a family murdered the wife and passed her off as a spy, this is the name of the victim), and Kang Chung Ya (During the Korean War, the military massacred more than 700 people in the Geochang. The operation name for the massacre was "Kyun Byeok Chung Ya"). How are you going to explain this? You want to deny all state violence, don't you?
Kang Chung Ya - In 1950, the military massacred civilians from Geochang to Haman and covered up by claiming they were communists. (t/n: the Korean army massacred 700 unarmed citizens including 300+ children)
Following the April 19th movement, the Bereaved Family Association were arrested and tortured under Park Chung Hee. (T/n: Park Chung-Hee is the president/military colonel who launched the military Coup d'état of May 16th 1961)
(t/n2: Insightful paper about the Bereaved Family Association here: https://apjjf.org/-Brendan-Wright/4387)
The male lead is a transfer student from Germany - under Park Chung Hee's regime, he would imprison and lock down spies claiming they were German transfer students
Kye Bun Ok - Suzy Kim incident(t/n: https://www.nytimes.com/2002/0…ost-politically-foul.html)
Are you going to deny everything that happened with the state's violence, Syngman Rhee and Park Cheung Hee?
