Description
Book Introduction
"Choi Tae-seong's Korean History in Comics" is a Korean history lecture comic book produced by Choi Tae-seong, a leading Korean history lecturer, and cartoonist Kim Yeon-kyu after two years of preparation.
It is an easy and fun read that unravels the major historical events that Koreans must know in one easy and fun story.
Vivid colors and sparkling ideas add to the visual appeal, and humorous quips make reading even more enjoyable.


In "Volume 2, Modern and Contemporary Times," the keyword "dream" spans 150 years and is woven into 28 resonant episodes.
You can encounter the lives of the opening of ports, when people dreamed of liberation from the caste system, the Japanese colonial period, when people dreamed of independence from colonial rule, and the lives of the previous generation, who hoped not to pass on dictatorship and poverty.
This will be a valuable time to confirm that the history of the Republic of Korea today was created by the dreams they earnestly desired, and that the recording of that story is modern and contemporary history.
