Monuments
The cultural and historical viewpoints that people obtain will cause a shift in their understanding of monuments, which is a direct consequence of the fact that they will gain such viewpoints. The despot that leads North Korea is a tyrant who is preoccupied with extolling his own and his family’s achievements to the highest possible degree.
In South Korea, it is considered more appropriate to remember someone than to idolise them. The distinction between the two can be made out with relative ease. The war memorial in South Korea is meant to serve as a reminder of a particularly heinous period in South Korean history, whereas the memorial in North Korea is used as a place of prayer.
