Original Title: 그때 그 사람들
The President’s Last Bang
South Korean President Park Chunghee came to power via military coup in 1961 and ruled for 18 years with near dictatorial powers. In October, 1979, students and civilians called for democracy and protested Park’s oppressive rule, but Park’s military easily crushed the protesters. On October 26, 1979, the day will go down in South Korean history as the President’s Last Bang.
