'저는 그들의 땅을 지키기 위하여 싸웠던 인디안들의 이야기를 기억합니다. 백인들이 그들의 신성한 숲에 도로를 만들기 위하여 나무들을 잘랐습니다. 매일밤 인디안들이 나가서 백인들이 만든 그 길을 해체하면 그 다음 날 백인들이 와서 도로를 다시 짓곤 했습니다. 한동안 그 것이 반복되었습니다. 그러던 어느날, 숲에서 가장 큰 나무가 백인들이 일할 동안 그들 머리 위로 떨어져 말과 마차들을 파괴하고 그들 중 몇몇을 죽였습니다. 그러자 백인들은 떠났고 결코 다시 오지 않았습니다….' (브루스 개그논)

Six members of the Frontier, an organization that works in the conflict zones in the world stayed in the tent in the Joongduk coast on Jan. 20. They will stay there for several nights more. Some villagers brought some foods and heaters for them. Construction truck has not come until in the morning of the next day. Don’t know when the navy and trucks come again.

The traces of a power shovel yesterday. The navy is told to plan to make a road to the coast for carrying heavy equipment, such as plants that would be put under sea as the beginning process for building navy port, here in Gangjeong village. The power shovel has destroyed the coast about 20~25 meter length on Jan. 20, breaking many rocks along its way.

It was told later that the navy was building electricity within the completed resident buildings for construction workers on Jan. 16. Some villagers have expressed their optimistic idea that the villagers will recover the hill again, taking those buildings as the facility for villagers, such as village people’s hall, children school etc., once they win in the struggle and the navy finally withdraws. It made many people laugh.
