인간이기를 포기한 일제의 만행, 731부대의 실험들 (KBS_2005.08.27.방송)

Unit 731, the world's largest secret unit established in Harbin, Manchuria. Over a nine-year period (1936–1945), more than 3,000 people disappeared as "materials" for poison gas, freezing experiments, and germ warfare experiments, their stories recorded in experiment reports. In August 2005, Director Kim Seong-min (731 Research Institute, Harbin Academy of Social Sciences) released documentary evidence regarding the 1,463 victims of Unit 731 after more than 20 years of effort. Among them, six individuals have been identified as Koreans serving in Unit 731. Director Kim states that these were the very anti-Japanese fighters of Korea who were fighting on the land of Manchuria. Frostbite experiment at minus 60 degrees. The ‘blood exchange injection’ between humans and horses, the scattering of plague-infected fleas from airplanes, the distribution of anthrax candies to children, and the disembowelment of children alive to verify their effectiveness... The aftermath of Unit 731, which recorded one of the most horrific chapters in human history, continues to this day. Just before their retreat, the Japanese military buried large quantities of poison gas bombs within China, and victims continue to emerge as two million of these bombs are unearthed one after another. How long will we leave them in oblivion? How many Korean victims remain unidentified? Finding and remembering the trajectories of their lives is now a task left to all of us. #KoreanHistory #History #HistorySpecial #HistoryJournal Copyright ⓒ KBS. All rights reserved.
