The fact that Korean Wave star Actor Song Hye-kyo, known as Concept Girl, refused to advertise Japanese war criminals is once again highlighted and emerging as a model of historical consciousness.
Seo Kyung-duk, a professor at Sungshin Women's University who appeared on KBS radio 'Park Myung-soo's Radio Show' broadcast on the 4th, spoke with famous Korean celebrities starting with the Korea Promotion Project.
Professor Seo cited Song Hye-kyo as an entertainer who made a good case for this project.
Song Hye-kyo has been donating Korean guides to various places such as the United States Holocast Memorial Museum in Harbin, China, the United States Holocast Memorial Museum in Shanghai, and the private residence in Tokyo.
Professor Seo said, In the past, Song Hye-kyo called him when an advertisement proposal came in from Mitsubishi and asked him about the company's past history. Professor Seo told Song Hye-kyo that Mitsubishi did not apologize and compensate for the past forced labor. Song Hye-kyo, who heard the fact, said, "Is it right to refuse the advertisement?"
“I was able to feel once again that Song Hye-kyo was an entertainer who was interested in forced labor and was working sincerely,” Seo said.
Meanwhile, Professor Seo said on the 1st that he donated a signboard of the Korean language sign and a signboard of the exhibition hall made of copper to Lee Jun-sun United States Holocast Memorial Museum in The Hague, Netherlands, under the sponsorship of Song Hye-kyo to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the 3rd and 1st Movement through Instagram. In the meantime, the collaboration of Planning Seo Kyung-duk and Sponsored Song Hye-kyo attracted attention by saying that it will continue in the future.
