Title: Independence activists" wives see through memoirs under Japanese rule
Abstract: For 36 years under Japanese rule, the most important thing in the independence movement was survival itself. Independence activists who fled abroad were in refugee status and were extremely poor. The wife of an independence activist did economic activities on behalf of her husband and also led a family as a housewife. BR This paper describes the activities of the wives of independence activists, Hu Eun(許銀, 1909∼1997) and Han Do-sin(韓道信, 1895 ∼1986), through the memoir of women independence activists. While men were active on ‘the outside’, wives played a fundamental role in reproducing the independence movement. However, previous research has neglected the role of these women. According to the female memoirs, the independence movement history should be newly described from the perspective of daily life and life history. There is also a need for a new perspective on the contributions of independence activists
