박정희 시대 4부｜잘 살아보세, 새마을운동의 진짜 이야기

In Part 4 of the Park Chung-hee Era, we examine the Saemaul Movement, a representative policy that sought to transform South Korea's rural communities in the 1970s. Beginning with the slogan "Let's live well," the Saemaul Movement had a significant impact on changing the living conditions of impoverished rural villages. As thatched roofs were replaced, dirt roads were improved, and village halls and community facilities were established, rural areas began to change noticeably. However, the Saemaul Movement was not merely a voluntary rural movement. It also involved methods in which the government set goals, evaluated villages, and mobilized residents. Therefore, while the Saemaul Movement is a representative achievement of the Park Chung-hee era that transformed rural communities, it was also a policy that left behind the shadows of state mobilization and pressure for results. Was the Saemaul Movement truly a movement that saved rural communities? Or was it a symbol of developmental dictatorship where the state controlled even the lives of the people?
