This event is a part of Honouliuli National Historic Site's 10th Anniversary Celebration.

The Center for Oral History team (led by Mary Danico) is conducting archival research in both the U.S. and Korea and has interviewed descendants of Korean POWs who later returned to Jeju Island. Dukhee Murabayashi contributed significantly to this research by translating the names of over 2,700 Korean POWs listed in the Free Press and has worked closely with Honouliuli efforts to highlight how Hawaiʻi’s Korean communities interacted with and responded to the presence of these POWs. Together, Danico and Murabayashi will offer a glimpse at the lived experiences of Korean POWs during their internment in Honouliuli and share insights into their lives upon returning to Jeju Island, S. Korea.
