“Proud of Our National Flag!”

Elementary school students visit the Independence Hall in Cheonan, South Chungcheong Province, to mark the upcoming 89th anniversary of the 1919 Independence Movement. The national flag of Korea flutters in the wind. In commemoration of the 60th anniversary of Korea`s liberation, 815 national flags are hoisted on the taegeukgi grounds representing August 15, or Independence Day.
