Today I went to Seodaemun prison. I saw the Independence gate. The Independence gate was built in 1896 as a symbol of independence. The Japan wanted Koreans to stop thinking about independence so they built the Seodaemun prison next to it. The torture room displays the cruel torture done by the Japanese.  The basement prison was built to temporarily put female freedom fighters in. I think the Japanese were so scary because they made people die and catch diseases. Yu Gwan Sun was a famous freedom fighter. She was a student of Ehwa Women's school. She returned to her hometown because the Japanese goverment ordered to close all the schools. I think Japan was bad. The prison cells where our patriots were locked up are dark and damp with no toilets. Many people died of hunger and disease here. I think the Japanese were so scary.

 They hoped to make Korea their own.

Good writing.
