The people wearing blue jackets and white hiba in the photos are police officers
We called them
Baggoldan(meanning white skeletons cops)in 1980
In 1987, I was a junior school student, and the memories of Bluejacket, which smelled of tear gas, are still vivid.
I liked to play with my friends
It was just like a festival that I was a teenager who did not even know that it was like a parade of demos in the vicinity of Euljiro Dansungsa and Piccadilly Theater.
Apple-shaped tear gas
At that time, Korea 's tear gas was the most powerful tear gas in the world
When I shout the slogan of 'dictatorship'
Suddenly, 'Peong! Peong!' Apple tear gas explodes with sound
Baggoldan, wearing white hiba, gas mask and blue jacket looks like mine, ran from here and there and beat people.
I did not know anything that day and followed the procession of the demo crowd.
I ran up the staircase that caught my eye to set up a ranch to avoid the fierce attacks of tear gas that burst openly.
However, my friend went to the underground road along with the older ones.
My refuge was on the second floor restaurant overlooking the underpass entrance
At the window, I could see Baggoldan throwing apple tear gas into the underground entrance.
And soon after the white smoke
I saw my friend bleed in his head and dragged into the hands of Baggoldan
It was because I was a teenager who had no idea what courage was.
I went downstairs quickly.
At that time, my hair length was the length of the picture
The person in the picture is a Korean artist, not me XDIn the 1980s, junior school and high school boys in Korea could not keep their heads up
At that time, my head was tight at 5mm level,
"This is my friend, junior school student!"
Shouted.
The situation where only the eyes of Baggol could see the gas mask window
Then three seconds was like three minutes
Baggol said
"Fuck! Get out of here!"
He pushed my friend and ranaway
My friend is a face that looks older than necessary.
He did not even shave his beard. He looked older.
Even now, when the story is told, my friend appreciates me. ^^
But ... if Baggol decided and attacked ...
Could have escaped safely ..
I also had a pretty good fight during middle schoolMaybe ..
Hhave been beaten up a lot of XD
Stitched my friend's head.
Our play with the demo ended with it.
For me, it was like a festival.
I have to be a college student
I understand why college students in their twenties were at risk when they stood there.
The reason why Park Jong-cheol and Lee Han-heul are called as the YEOULSA
Now that we enjoy naturally
It is because of the sacrifice of youth for freedom.
YEOULSAmeans a hero who devoted his life to the democracy of Korea
It was a junior high school student
The movie 1987 which was able to return to that memory
Because it is our history, I recommend you to watch it.
Now Korea
It is full of the heat of movie '1987' which recorded filled with the heat of democratization.
