August 15, 2018 is National Independence Day, commemorated in South Korea as Gwangbokjeol (광복절). Translated it means, “Day of the Restoration of Light.”

On this day, it is appropriate to acknowledge the hope and possibilities expressed in 1945 as the “Day of the Restoration of Light”, not just for Korea, but for many nations at the time. Although many of those dreams remain unfulfilled, we can recognize and seize the current opportunity to now bring those dreams to light.
