January 1, 1947, 9:00am The ancient and submerged skyline of Seoul echoes across the crisp morning sky with traditionally wavy rooftops and red tile. Palaces, temples, gardens, terraces, towers and elegantly crafted buildings erupt with splendor and glory. Only the ravages of war separated the ancient from the modern. Militant Japanese occupation transformed the philosophical landscape to one of terror, but only now under US occupation the spirits of the people have yet to be rejuvenated. Only the split of ideology between the nationalists and communists strike fire into the hearts of the people.
