Integrated Edition. Hwang Byeong-gwan's Death and Sirasoni's Revenge
Hwang Byung-kwan, a wrestler who competed in the 1952 London Olympics, has died. We trace the path of his death, exploring what happened in Busan, his refugee camp.
This article covers the stories of history and gangsters. Stories about gangsters are shared across various sources, including movies, dramas, novels, the Internet, and various rumors.
There may be discrepancies in the content. For example, in director Im Kwon-taek's film "The General's Son,"
Hammer came to the Umi Theater to watch a movie for free,
and was beaten by Kim Du-han.
In a Naver blog post, Jisin said,
He and Kim Mu-ok, a Gwangju gangster from Jeolla Province, were beaten by Kim Du-han in Jongno.
In Hong Seong-yu's "The Theater of Life,"
He said,
He worked as a circus performer and then became Kim Du-han's subordinate.
Rather than definitively stating which of these is true,
we present all three stories without any exaggeration,
so that you can say, "Oh, there are other theories, too," and
absolutely disagree. Let's not argue,
and I highly recommend watching this to relieve stress and briefly unwind from the rigors of everyday life.
