An eyewitness account of this event was anonymously published under the name of a famous author and was later combined with a Tim Shorrock essay that details American involvement in this event’s repression. In the wake of this event, the uplifting song “Marching for Our Beloved” was composed. Footage of this event wrapped in a cookie tin made to look like a wedding gift was smuggled out by Jürgen Hinzpeter. The date of this event and the area code where it occurred are referenced in the lyric “everyone dial it, 062-518.” This event followed the May 17 coup by the Hanahoe (“HA-nah-ho”), who had capitalized on the KCIA’s murder of a sitting president in the Blue House. Students and professors at Chonnam University began this event, although Kim Dae-jung was held responsible by the Chun Doo-hwan regime. For 10 points, identify this 1980 uprising named for a South Korean city. ■END■
