ABSTRACT

One of the yearly events of the forest policy after liberation to reinvigorate bare mountains was ‘Arbor Day’. <Daehan News> produced and screened an ‘Arbor Day’ event every year. The main content and scenes screened in the 1960s show bare mountains and reforestation activities of young students and soldiers. It seemed that the ultimate goal is to make the ‘red mountain’ into a ‘green mountain’, and the other is to emphasize that it is ‘voluntary’ participation by showing groups and individuals participating in the ‘Forest Rehabilitation’, thus leading to more mobilization. On the one hand, the goal of forest policy was linked to economic development. So the ‘real purpose’ of the ‘Forest Rehabilitation’ of Park Jeong-hee was building a basis for economic development rather than creating a natural environment considering organic Relationship with the overall Ecological Environment.
