Abstract

During the period of resistance against Japan, the Korean people did not give in to persecution and fought for independence in order to restore national rights from the Japanese invasion. In the process, procurement of the funds was very important in the independence movement. It was extremely risky to do so as Japanese surveillance was prevalent. Also, risking your entire savings to secure procurement was not an easy feat. The bold and noble sacrifice of these people was the true noblesse oblige that accomplished the historic task of gaining national independence. It is also true that there are only a few documents or materials remaining to prove these acts of procuring funds, as these were done in secret to avoid Japanese surveillance. However, according to the records, there are many independence activists who went to jail for participating in these acts. These heroes were the CEO’s of Korea’s independence movement. I believe it is a meaningful work to collect and organize the remaining resources regarding military or independence funds.
