"Raise Your Hands as if Liberation Has Come"...Entertainment Industry Dyed in Taegeuk Flag

[Dispatch=Reporter Jung Tae-yun] On the 81st anniversary of Liberation Day, a wave of Taegeuk flags is sweeping through the entertainment industry.

BIGBANG's G-Dragon shared concert stage footage on Instagram on the 15th. The video featured Taeyang's "Ring a Ring a."

G-Dragon participated in writing and composing the song. The song contains the lyrics "Raise your hands as if liberation has come."

He has consistently posted Taegeuk flag-related content on national holidays. This year as well, he shared the lyrics on Liberation Day and reflected on the meaning of liberation.

Actor Park Bo-gum shared a photo from the 8.15 running event with Sean. He also left the message "It will be well, South Korea."

Kim Yoo-jung, Lee Dong-wook, Park Bo-young, and Forestella also shared Taegeuk flag photos on Instagram. They said "Let's remember our precious history."

Bae Jung-nam shared Taegeuk flags from the 1950s in his collection. The flags bore traces of the passage of time. He also posted a Monami Taegeuk flag edition prepared as a gift for the stage greeting of the film "Okay Madam."

Kim Min-jung posted an image of Lee Yang-hwa (Kudo Hina), a character she portrayed in the drama "Mr. Sunshine." Lee Yang-hwa is a character who secretly supported Korean independence activists while hiding behind a Japanese identity.

She wrote "Lee Yang-hwa always comes to mind around this time. I wanted to resemble her even as I created her. Long live the Republic of Korea."

Donations followed. Dancer Gabi delivered 8.15 million won for independence activists and their descendants. She said "I hope it helps in preparing warm homes."

Sieun and Taehyun and his wife also verified donation certificates the day before. They donated 10 million won to Korea Habitat for a housing improvement project for descendants of independence activists.

They also made a contribution of 10 million won to the Miral Welfare Foundation for support of domestic families in crisis. Taehyun hoped "the world becomes a place where helping others is naturally practiced."
