An introduction to the history of the Jeju Massacre, Part 1

  • Summary

  • What is the Jeju Massacre?

    For many transplants and tourists to the island, its dark history is hidden behind Jeju's palm trees, shores and surf.

    But the massacre continues to affect its residents, government and relations with the mainland. 

    And once with even a little understanding of the history of how 30,000 Jeju residents were killed between 1947-54, its effects can be seen everywhere. 

    Academics, historians and politicians still don't fully agree on what happened here more than 70 years ago, but here at Me, You & Jeju, we have been trying to highlight this tragic history that is also the individual history of its residents. 

    In Part 2, we discuss how the South Korean government came to apologize to the island for its atrocity and what it means.
