『런민일보[人民日報]』에 나타난 5·18 광주민중항쟁 자료와 김대중 구명 성명에 대한 시의적 해석

An Implicit Interpretation of the May 18 Gwangju Democratic Uprising Data and China's Statement on the Rescue of Kim Dae Jung's Life in the People's Daily

The data on the May 18 Gwangju Democratic Uprising and the rescue of Kim Dae Jung's life in the People's Daily are of primary significance from the need for sympathy and cooperation from neighboring countries to seek the stability of the Korean Peninsula and the development of democracy. Nevertheless, related data for a long time were not subject to academic research. The reason can be summarized in two main ways. One is that the data containing the perspective of the socialist country China is not securing objectivity. The other is that researchers do not have an active attitude toward the discovery and academic research of the country's historical materials. Until now, academic research on the democratic movement and the maturity of democratization in the south of the Korean Peninsula has continued, focusing on the related data in the U.S. and Japan. Considering the current development of conflicts around the Korean Peninsula, it is time to study China's data at least from an academic perspective. Through the analysis, it was confirmed that China's data on the Kim Dae Jung life-saving movement in the process of the New Military Constitution is very valuable in the future construction of a unified state on the Korean Peninsula and planning contents for friendly exchanges between Korea and China.
