Nam In-su Commemoration Association will be held on the 8th at the Namgang Outdoor Stage in Hadae-dongproceeded with '
The problem is that this event violated due process. In the first place, the business association named Nam In-soo as 馨?Under the name of 'Bbongjjak Kungjjak Concert', Jinju City allowed the event to be held. However, on the day of the event, a large banner was hung '3rd Nam In-su Song Festival Final' and the phrase'Nam In-su Song Festival Final' was also used on the wreath.
Nam In-soo made his debut in 1936 with the song `Channel of Tears" and was the emperor of K-pop, which made a hit with the song "Soyagok of Sadness"''Mulbanga Love"'Defeated Age''Busan Station'Go, Sampal Line', but he was named in the dictionary of pro-Japanese people published by the National Research Institute in 2008 after singing the forced mobilization song supporting the Pacific War, such as 'blood support'25 million emotion'' and 'You and I' at the end of the Japanese colonial period. It has not yet been determined whether he voluntarily acted pro-Japanese or was a kind of forced labor under Japanese coercion, but the fact that he planned and implemented an event in honor of a controversial pro-Japanese figure was enough controversial.
In response, Jinju City thought that the commemorative business association held the event with unauthorized contents and announced legal action in accordance with related regulations such as the Public Property Act.
In accordance with the relevant regulations, Jinju City will hold it responsible for the off-label and file a complaint with the police. In the future, we will actively cooperate with the law enforcement authorities to ensure that these acts are not repeated" he said.
