KCNA Calls for End to U.S. History of Aggression on Korea

Korean Central News Agency of DPRK

    Pyongyang, May 25 (KCNA) -- It is said that U.S. missionary Underwood the Fourth whose Korean name is Won Kwang Han will leave south Korea this fall. His great grandfather was dispatched to south Korea as a member of an advance team for invading Korea under the cloak of U.S. missionary in 1885.
    A member of the Underwood family which has left footsteps of crimes as a stooge in executing the U.S. policy of aggression on Korea for four generations is now going to be expelled from south Korea. This means that he can no longer stay there in face of the sentiments of independence against the U.S. rapidly growing among the south Koreans from all walks of life in the wake of the publication of the historic June 15 North-South Joint Declaration.
    The Underwood family has acted guides and scouts in laying the foothold of aggression under the mask of religion for nearly 120 years since it set foot in Korea and it has been the chief criminal in spreading the idea of worship towards and fear of the U.S. and disseminating the U.S.-style culture among the south Koreans.
    As well known, U.S. missionaries including the Underwood's, till they were expelled with the outbreak of the Pacific War, craftily defended the Japanese imperialists' policy of occupation of Korea and systematically carried out preparations to put Korea under the U.S. control in the future. This is evidenced by the fact that Underwood the Second held the post of an adviser to the U.S. Military Government which the U.S. imperialists set up to establish a colonial rule after occupying south Korea with the defeat of the Japanese imperialists in 1945. To cap it all, this man took up the post of an adviser to the U.S. side which led to the collapse of the Soviet-U.S. Joint Committee when the issue of establishing a provisional democratic government in Korea was laid before it soon after the liberation of Korea.
    The Underwood family has resorted to sly tricks to create the impressions that it has rendered a sort of service to the Koreans with pretty phrases about religion and education, going around under such Korean names as Won Tu U, Won Han Gyong and Won Kwang Han.
    The pro-U.S. conservative forces in south Korea captive to the idea of worship towards the U.S. have expressed sympathy with it and are now showing regret at the expulsion of the Underwood the Fourth.
    But this is nothing but fraud, hypocrisy and foolish self-deception of the master and the servant for concealing their true colors. The ugly records of the Underwood family are the epitome of the U.S. history of aggression on Korea. The crimes committed by it against the Koreans generation after generation can never be forgiven. They will remain as disgraceful records.
    It is time the U.S. imperialist aggression troops were made to leave south Korea just as the Underwood family, the scout of aggression.
    The south Korean people should force the U.S. troops to pull out at an early date and drop the curtain on the U.S. history of aggression on Korea.
