새로운 변화를 꿈꾸는 한 해 수시변역(隨時變易)
A year dreaming of new changes: Susibyeonyeok (隨時變易) You are gone, leaving behind so many cries and so much loss Still, there must be tomorrow for us A storm should rage in every heart that now shatters the weariness of history The distance between humans Such great songs of life Overcome here stained with grief The year changes once again “On One New Year's Eve” Han Seung-heon

'2000년 여성국제법정' 20주년, 끝나지 않은 판결과 남겨진 과제
The 20th Anniversary of the 2000 Women's International War Crimes Tribunal on Japan's Military Sexual Slavery. – Unfinalized Judgement and Unfinished Tasks This year marks the 20th year after the 2000 Women's International War Crimes Tribunal for Japan's Military Sexual Slavery (hereafter 2000 Women's International Tribunal). The 2000 Women's International Tribunal, which took place from December 7 to 12, 2000 in Tokyo, was a civil court and joint indictment corps comprised of 10 countries, including Korea, China, Japan, and the Philippines, and raised the issue of the Japanese military's wartime sexual violence in Asia to the international community. It was a civil court and therefore not legally binding, but the victims testified regarding the Japanese soldiers' cruelties, and Emperor Hirohito and the Japanese government were convicted. Twenty years later, however, the Japanese military comfort women issue remains unresolved. On October 22, the Foundation invited the two people who took part in the historic court at the time—professor emeritus Nakahara Michiko of Waseda University and professor emeritus Chung Chin-sung of Seoul National University—to listen to what the court concluded.

무문자시대 인류사를 밝힐 열쇠, 중국 바위그림 유적조사
Relic Investigation of China's Rock Carvings that Hold the Key to Human History in the Prehistoric Era During my dispatch service at China's Peking University for one year from November 16, 2018, I intensively surveyed prehistoric and ancient relics of rock carvings scattered across China. For this survey, I first drew up cards for rock carvings discovered in China and divided China into six regions—the southern, southeastern coastal, central, central western, northwestern, and northeastern areas—before determining research areas and schedules in consideration of the rainy season and heat. In March, I began research in the southern region, followed by southeastern coast in April and the central western area in June. It rained every day during the period covering the southeastern coast in April, so I rescheduled the central part for until after September.

'19기 역사아카데미' 참가 후기: 주변국의 역사공정, 그 이해의 폭을 넓히다
Postscript on Participation in 19th History Academy: Broadening the Scope of Understanding on History Projects of Neighboring States The Seodaemun Culture Center publishes the “Seodaemun Folk History Data Book”. The center collects village folk history data through surveys and visits and publishes one data book every year. I have been taking part in the project for three years, and am also working as a commentator for the hometown visit program targeting third-grade students in elementary school. I visited the Dokdo Museum Seoul as a commentator in November 2018, and had a chance to awaken my interest in Dokdo. I thus satisfied my thirst for history with full attendance of the Northeast Asian History Foundation's inaugural educational course for the Dokdo exhibition explanation, as well as the night opening of Dokdo Museum Seoul and history classes. I was naturally absorbed in the Foundation's classes, which prompted me to sign up for the 19th history academy as soon as my commentator training was complete. My passion for history enabled me to continue the relationship with the Foundation. The 19th history academy, in particular, was the most useful time for broadening my view on history projects.

Postscript on Activities of the First Class of Online Supporters I learned of the Northeast Asian History Foundation while serving in the military. I intensely thought that "I could realize my dream of passionately sharing Korean history with the public if I study history here." I thus wrote my letter of self-introduction for graduate school saying that "I would like to later devote my life to research in the Northeast Asian History Foundation." While steadily showing great interest in the Foundation, I came to know that the Foundation would be selecting the first class of online supporters.

발해사는 동아시아에서 어떤 의미일까
What does Balhae Kingdom history mean to East-Asia?

Let's begin a historical journey, centered on the primary historical records related to Balhae and newly discovered data.
