Korean National Youth Association

[2] The Association was a neo-fascist youth group organized by Lee Beom-seok, who was fully sponsored by the U.S. military government in October 1946.

The Association served as the basis for Lee's political activities and was disbanded under Rhee's direction in 1949, but later remained in the form of a "congress system," playing a big role in the establishment of the Liberal Party.

From the 7th grade, female senior trainees were also admitted, and the training was divided into five categories: mental, physical, theory, life, and practical departments.

In the theory section, more than 20 people, including Jeong In-bo, An Ho-sang [ko], Bae Seong-ryong [ko], and Sulin, take the lecture for a week and 12 hours, and Lee Beom-seok himself worked on the realization of the reality of his country and ways of a new youth movement, revolutionary views of life, revolutionary ethnicity, and the old-country Salvation Movement.

[7] Kim Tae-sun resigned as Seoul's special mayor after losing his job while Chang Taek-sang stepped down as prime minister after being embroiled in a political maneuver called "the high-profile case".

[10] A national convention led by the Jokcheong faction for purging after the political and non-government elections was held in Daejeon in May 1953.

It was also said that the contest was the culmination of a religious struggle within the Liberal Party, which led to the self-destruction of the Korean National Youth Association at that time.

[7] At the same time, Lee Beom-seok decided on the principle of integration into the Great Korean Young Adults Association [ko] and selected five representatives from the Liberal Party.

Thus, the following year, in January 1954, the association was finally disbanded, saying, "The merits and demerits of our youth movement will be duly assessed when the Korean people revive".

[12] Lee Beom-seok found it most urgent to organize and train young people as the rebel forces of the new country that was liberated from Japanese colonial rule, and created the "congress" with the support of the U.S. military government.
