Freedom is shaken. The rule of law is crumbling, truth is distorted, and cries for justice are silenced even on the streets.
Power seeks to reign over the people, the media has abandoned its role as guardian of truth, and even elections have become objects of distrust.
The glorious journey of the Republic of Korea is now being shaken to its very roots.
But history has always prepared hope in moments of crisis.
The Republic of Korea is not just a modern nation.
The ideal of Hongik Ingan is our eternal philosophy that embraces the dignity of the individual and the harmony of the community, and **Jaeseihwa (在世理化)** is a practical mission and historical responsibility to enlighten and govern the world.
We have been fighting against imperialism, totalitarianism, and communism for a long time, holding this ideology in our hearts.
And finally, we built a miraculous foundation called the Republic of Korea on freedom, democracy, markets, human rights, and the rule of law.
But today, we stand before this question again.

"Where are we going?"
"Whose Republic of Korea belongs to?"
"What are the values ​​we must protect?"

This book is my answer to that question, and a record of the voices that cried out to protect the Republic of Korea at a crossroads in history. I stood in the square, held the microphone, and even at times faced criticism and isolation, I sought to reach out to the people and convey the truth.
The spirit of Hongik Ingan is the conscience of an awakened citizen.
The ideal of Jaeseihwa is the courage to take action against injustice.
The mission of promoting human prosperity is the mission and destiny of the Republic of Korea, which is to spread liberal democracy throughout the world.
This collection of short stories is not just a record of the past.
This is a declaration toward the second founding of the coming free Republic of Korea, and it is intended to be the starting point for national awakening and action to revive lost freedom and re-establish forgotten ideals.
We still have time, and there is still hope for this country.
That hope is you, the awakened one among the people.

A Practical Declaration for Awake Citizens in an Age of Shaking Freedom

History lecturer Jeon Han-gil's new short story collection, "You Are the Masters of History," is a book that records the cries of a thinker who stepped out from the history lecture hall onto the streets, and from the classroom into the square.
His belief that history is not a chronicle of the past, but a philosophy that illuminates the present and brightens the future runs through the entire book.
This collection of short stories is not simply a memoir or a collection of lectures.
Jeon Han-gil reinterprets the founding ideology of Gojoseon, "Hongik Ingan," as a universal principle of human dignity, declares "Jaeseihwa" as a principle of just practice, and "Humanity Co-prosperity" as the new mission for the Republic of Korea to contribute to the world.
And this philosophy is extended to concrete practices such as real politics, election monitoring, civic education, and raising youth awareness.

What you'll get from this book

- A profound insight into the direction that South Korea should take in these turbulent times.
- A modern perspective on the ideological roots of the nation, such as Hongik Ingan, Jaeseihwa, and the common prosperity of humanity.
- The sense of responsibility and courage that each and every citizen must have as a subject of history.

"This book is a record of hope, not anger. From the voice of the pulpit to the cry of the square, it now finds its way to your desk."
