| Events for Patriots and Veterans | The Events for Patriots and Veterans are meant to fulfill the nation’s
duty to those who have devoted their lives to the nation, including the repatriation of ROK soldiers’
remains, local appreciation events for UN war veterans, and memorial exhibition for female war veterans,
as well as commemorative events. First, the event for the repatriation of ROK soldiers’ remains was held
at Seoul Air Base with the families of the deceased, government officials, and key military figures in
attendance to bring home the remains of ROK soldiers who died in North Korea during the Korean War,
but were later recovered and kept at the Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency (DPAA).

honoring the souls of the fallen heroes and paying respect for their noble sacrifices. It was particularly
meaningful as some of the repatriated remains were identified and returned to the families of the
deceased. In addition, a documentary titled "Returning Home After 70 Years" that portrayed the process
of repatriating the remains was aired , touching the hearts of the public.
