dc.description.abstract | In February of 1951, the Korean Army, who was conducting military
operations against Communist guerrillas, massacred 719 unarmed villagers in Kochang County in the southeast part of the Korean Peninsula. Even though they had no justifiable evidence, the Army suspected the villagers of supporting guerrillas. Almost half of those killed were under the age of 14, and more women were killed than men. Such killings were not confined to Kochang area, because the army occasionally abused its power in the course of military operations during the Korean War (1950-1953). What made the Kochang incident unique in the Korean War was the courageous response of the survivors. A delegate from Kochang revealed the massacre to the National Assembly, and various sectors of the government sought to discover the truth despite strong pressure to silence them. As a result, a military tribunal found guilty some of the officers involved. The Kochang trial remained the only case in which military massacre of non-combatants had been punished during wartime. Even after the crime was officially recognized by judicial decision and governmental report, the atmosphere of anti-Communism and militarism overshadowed the survivors outcry for restorative justice. The survivors who argued for full disclosure and reparations were neglected or harassed under the subsequent military regime. It was not until 1996 (under the Kim Young Sam civilian government) that the National Assembly passed the Special Act concerning Kochang Incident (called the Kochang Act). The Act, implemented by the government, provided funding for memorial works including a memorial | - |
