The Spirit of June 25th: Those Who Defended to the End

The Korean War Exhibition Hall at the War Memorial of Korea is a space where you can feel the fiery spirit of those who fought to protect their country. Inside the exhibition hall, the devastation of bombed cities and the soldiers in trenches are vividly recreated, showcasing both the horrors of war and the courage within it. Artifacts such as firearms, military uniforms, bullet casings, and canteens from that time seem to tell the vivid stories of the soldiers. At the center of the War Memorial, strategic maps of major battles like the Han River Defense Line, the Nakdong River Front, and the Incheon Landing Operation are displayed, conveying the urgency of the wartime situation. The exhibition also includes video materials and dioramas designed to be easily understood by young students, making it popular among family visitors. The images of those who never gave up hope even in despair remind us of the preciousness of peace.
