Abstract

This article aims to de ne the background and fact surrounding the argument for and against permanent establishment of Korean Central Council for Social Organizations (KCCSO) at its inauguration conference in 1927.BRAccording to existing studies, the argument for the permanent establishment of KCCSO is known to have been advocated by Seoul Communist Group or part of it. It, however, is not true. Proponents of the permanent establishment of KCCSO were communists who refused to join the Korean Communist Party until the end, so they were neither Seoul Communist Group members nor Korean Communist Party members. They were just some communist individuals outside the Communist Party. The argument against permanent establishment of KCCSO was not proposed by the ML Communist Group unlike known before. It was not led by ML Communist Group, a faction within the party, but by the Korean Communist Party itself.BRThe argument for and against permanent establishment of KCCSO was an organizational argument. How could laborers’ hegemony be guaranteed in the National United Front? This was the issue of argument. Proponents of the permanent establishment of KCCSO thought that a legal Laborers Party should be created outside the National United Front, Singanhoi. On the contrary, Korean Communist Party looked for the means to ensure the hegemony of laborers in the illegitimate area. They argued that the hegemony could be secured by nothing but the Secret Association, Korean Communist Party.
