About This Book
The portal site for Kang Do-young’s cartoon "26 years" was jammed after
the last episode was released Sept. 28. Kang, widely known by his pen
name “Kangfull,” is a famous cartoon artist whose works have gained huge
popularity online. His previous works like “Apartment” and “Babo” have
been made into films.
"26 years," Kangfull’s latest work, tells the story of the May 18th
Gwangju Civil Uprising. [...] Kangfull’s cartoon creates a fictional
account of what would have happened if the victims’ families took
revenge on former president Chun. Five main characters appear in the
cartoon; the CEO of a big company who feels guilt for his role in
suppressing the revolt and four young people who lost their parents
during the event.
Kangfull said he decided to tell the story after former president Chun
said his vast fortune had been reduced to only 290,000 won. The
statement reignited anger towards the former president, who many believe
has not sufficiently atoned for the pain he caused during his eight-year
rule. “I wanted to let people remember the tragic incident through my
cartoon,” Kangfull said.
