A significant exhibition at The National Museum of Korea celebrates the 80th anniversary of Korea's liberation and the legacy of marathoner Sohn Kee-chung. The exhibition, titled 'Conquer the World with Two Feet', features Sohn's handwritten postcard with 'Korean 손긔졍', marking his national pride during a time when Korea was under Japanese rule. This postcard will be shown publicly for the first time alongside items from his historic 1936 Berlin Olympic win. The exhibition displays 18 items including his gold medal, and features AI-based video recreations of his journey. It runs from October 25 to December 28.
