This chapter examines the legacy of a key figure in the Korean independence movement, highlighting their dual status as a national hero in both North and South Korea. It contextualizes the landscape of anarchism in East Asia, focusing on the Eastern Anarchist Federation's unity during anti-imperialist uprisings and the political dynamics between nationalist and communist factions in early 20th century China.
