Propaganda Leaflets.

[rakkasan]

I found this in a box of old photographs hidden away (any reference to Pink Floyd purely incidental) the other day. I found it on the ground during a patrol inside the DMZ in 1986. The KATUSA (Korean Augmentation to the US Army) soldiers were always adamant in not translating propaganda either written or that which was piped over the loudspeakers so I have no clue as to what's written here. I submit it basically as a curiosity item and Cold War relic. If anyone is up on their Hangul by all means please translate.


Sorry for the small size of the pics....the 50kb limit reduced them to this size

Hah, shipbuilders, aaaalways shipbuilders.

Anyhow, can you post the translation from the larger scans here?

I'm not 100% on the "Only Volunteering Remains!" (due to the strange way it is laid out) but everything else is spot on.

Thanks, :cheers:cheers

I don't suppose that the characters in the watermark running lengthwise halfway through the middle are intelligible enough to decipher.

Unfortunately not. It looks like someone has tried to change what it says (either to correct the strange layout or more likely to change the suggestion).
The other side is more worn but I'll give it a go.

These collection is 'Free' to resident of S. Korea.

Most of things blaming S.Korea government and United States. Some kind of leaflets are very modern and stylish. There is cartoon too.

I live in downtown in Seoul, the central city of South Korea. I've collected hundreds of propaganda leaflets in January. North Korean spies infiltrates to the city, and scattering these. And they also uses hydrogen ballon to scattering these. Seoul is very close to North Korean border, ballon works.
