Cover Story
2018 marks the eightieth year since Japan proclaimed the National Mobilization Law in 1938. After the law's proclamation, Japan annually mobilized up to 8 million Koreans for forced labor. Bupyeong Park in Incheon is a site that historically embodies the atrocities Japanese imperialism committed against its colony Korea. The motif for the bronze relief and statue installed at Bupyeong Park came from testimonies given by Ji Young-rye and Lee Yeon-hyeong who once actually worked at Jobyeongchang, the largest Japanese army arsenal in Korea located in Incheon at the time. The featured work of art conveys the imminent liberation of Koreans from mobilization, exploitation, and human rights violations caused by Japanese imperialism.
