Have you ever heard of the `equity movement` in history class? Hyeongpyeongsa Movement is one of the modern movements of our country, and it is the first movement for the liberation of our country's. Prior to the movement of Pyeongpyeongsa, Joseon was abolished in 1894 under the first Gabo Reform, but social discrimination still existed against Baekjeong-like status. Despite the abolition of the status systemthe movement started by the Baekjeong people and some aristocrats who felt unfair to the incessant discrimination. The origin of Equilibrium the movement is Jinju. There are still traces of the Hyeongpyeongsa movement in Jinju. Two of the most representative buildings are Gang Sang-ho's tomb and the monument to the Pyungpyeong Movement. Kang Sang-ho was the first person to lead the movement, and his tomb could be visited shortly after the suck ryu park. If you visit this tomb, you can see that his life story is translated into Japanese as well as English, so I recommend a place for foreigners to visit There are many stories about the movement of equity in the tomb. If you want to know more about the movement, I think it's a place to look. If you look at the process of the Equilibrium Movement, what you can see after the exercise is built in Jinju, which is the memorial tower of the Equilibrium Movement, which was established by the Council of Peace. The memorial tower was built in front of Jin ju Castle in 1996 with voluntary donations from some 1,500 Jinju residents. Later, it was relocated to Jinju Daecheop Memorial Plaza, and now you can meet it in front of Gyeongnam Culture and Art Center. On the right side of the tower, it says, 'On April 24, 1923, in Jinju, here, in order to create a level society like a scale, the visionaries founded the equity firm, and later grew up as a nationwide organization and worked to achieve equality by 1935. Through this memorial tower, we can see the significance of the movement. Also, we can see the significance of the movement called the Equilibrium Movement and feel the spirit of it with the story of the memorial tower's sign, 'Having developed into a nationwide activity since it began in Jinju, I hope you to be citizens of a correct egalitarian society by reminiscing about the origins and meaning of the equity movement that began in Jinju.
