The proposal in this paper outlines an idea for a Korean Peninsula focused Peace Cruise starting from Jeju World Peace Island and going up the eastern coast of the peninsula ， taking in a port or two in Japan (such as Fukuoka) to accommodate potential Korean-descended passengers there and ending at Wonsan, where a grove of Jeju King Cherry (Prunus Yedoensis var. Nudiflora) trees could be planted progressively as a welcome avenue for those on the peace cruise ship. This grove of Jeju King Cherry trees will grow each time a Jeju World Peace Island Peninsula Cruise arrives. Wonsan has been a holiday place for the DPRK for some time and with the permission of that country could become a limited and controlled international destination for Peace and, perhaps, other cruise tours. There are precedents internationally for special zones to be declared for specific activities. Such places frequently become economic development zones for the host country. After successful itineraries have been shown, the Jeju World Peace Island ship could extend its cruise north to ports on the Kamchatka Peninsula and west to Chinese ports interested in the concept

This study attempted to reinterpret the meaning of the Roh MooHyun Jeju-Declaration in accordance with the age of artificial intelligence based on the liberal theory. In the era of artificial intelligence, a new aspect of the U.S.-China hegemonic competition was considered. The Roh MooHyun Declaration, which declared Jeju Island a peaceful island, was reinterpreted from three points of view of liberal theory. This study presented the necessity and orientation of the World Peace Island Network International Organization.

Ms. Hee Choon Oh was a Jeju Haenyeo(woman diver) and one of the few surviving victims of the Jeju 4.3 (1948). As a Haenyeo: Jeju society was very poor at the time during the Japanese colonial period and the division of the two Korea, especially after the Korean War, so she had to work regardless of gender. It was hard to go into the sea, but it was the only thing to support my family. In retrospect, Going out to work in the sea was like a life-threatening adventure every day. While there were many emergency moments, She becomes one with the sea and forgot all the pain. After having spent a lot of time together with the sea, I had to stop working as a Haenyeo because it was hard to take care of nine children after having heart surgery. I was able to receive Honorary Haenyeo through continuous exchanges and dedication to the society. As a victim of the Jeju 4.3: I had no choice but to explain it why I had to do work as a Haenyeo and to understand my life. I am a woman who chose the job of Haenyeo, but I have lived through the pain of the dark modern and contemporary history of Korea. The unfair one-year prison life that I wanted to hide even from my children hurt me all my life. Over the past 70 years, sharing pain with the sea, neighbors, and family, serving the region, and hopefully waiting for a better society and justice to come. and finally It was not until 2019, 70 years after 1948, that I was officially acquitted by a Korean court. I regained my honor as a Haenyeo and was able to get rid of my deep sadness.

The thought occurs that through “Korean Tolerance” Wonsan and the Jeju “Peace Port” at Gangeong village could be linked as “sister holiday places” by ferry, which sailing could include other ports to promote peace and Korean tolerance cruises featuring entertainment from all parts of the peninsula. Those Korean relatives in Japan could meet their DPRK families on Jeju and at other places on the Korean Tolerance cruise itinerary. There no doubt are many barriers to such a proposal as a peace and Korean Tolerance voyage between the DPRK and RoK, but the principle of Korean Tolerance and exchange between Wonsan and Jeju World Peace Island should be able to overcome such difficulties with good will throughout the peninsular polity.. “Korean Tolerance Peace Cruises” would serve to promote cultural exchange by using artists from all of Korea to learn from one another’s experiences, using their common language, shared culture and deep history.

In this paper we try to classify three kinds of Peace Island Bridging Culture such as Jeju 4.3 Peace Village, UNESCO Environmental Village and Longevity Village, which compose vision of Jeju Social Healing Villages through villager case studies. We can demonstrate Jeju as one of the world’s historical longevity islands which specialize not only environmental villages as UNESCO World Natural Heritages, Geoparks and Biosphere but also Jeju 4.3 peace village overcoming tragedy of the Jeju Massacre between 1948 50 1954.

We reach at conclusion that title of the 2021 GAN in Jeju Korea is “This Is Peace Island Care.” We have two reasons: one is that as we have basic assumption “ Jeju Island should need Peace Island Care in Asia Pacific region,” at village level beyond trauma of Jeju 4.3 Grand Tragedy (1947-1954), we try to illuminate Peace Island Village Care models to heal its trauma at grass roots level by both participants and villagers through Jeju World Peace Academy for 4 years (2016-2019) such as Jeju 4.3 damaged Buchonri, Dongkwang-ri, Ora-ri and Chungsoo ri assisting its resilience beyond its atrocities. It is important for us to connect the Peace Island Care models with other global care models globally. So, we introduce three village models to audience at the Toronto GAN Biennial conference : This Is Long Term Care 2019. It says “Transforming Ageing Together, a global approach to This Is Long Term Care 2019.

As Jeju people hopes to make an effort to find its place for 4.3 Grand Tragedy in the Sun, they will contribute to world peace beyond the Jeju 4.3 Tragedy. It will be a starting point that Jeju people propose to U.S. Congress “the Korea Jeju Human Rights and Peace Island Act 2021". It was meaningful that Jeju National University students suggested their idea about enactment of Jeju 4.3 Reconciliation Act to U.S. Congress at the meeting of both office of Congressman Mark Takano and Congresswoman Judy Chu on May 1, 2019. It may be going forward for us to do Jeju Massacre Consultation based on Jeju 4.3 Reparative Justice with cooperation of both U.N. lawyer and international law professors. It would be a historic achievement in the Human Rights and Democracy in 21st century similar to the Civil Liberty Act 1988 to Japanese Internment cases and the Hong Kong Human Rights and Democracy Act 2019 to Hong Kong democratization.

This paper is based on the author’s book, <The Jamnyo (Jeju women divers) of Korea, Neo-Confucianism and Dual Mythology> (2018). It was published in English and French verion by the Cultural Foundation Barbier-Mueller Museum in Geneva, Switzland. The particularity of the book is that it is the first of its kind that introduces in foreign language Jeju academic discourses (published since 1950’s, but not known outside of Korea)) on various topics, such as Jeju women divers, mythology, kinship system, shamanism and the influence of the Neo-confucianism on Jeju, imported from the mainland, combined with data collected among a divers' community in the small island of Udo, Jeju in 2016. This article presents two stances of the author regarding Jeju: (1) a feminist point of view on Jeju women divers and their contribution to Jeju society by presenting the island as a <women centred society>; (2) an activist point of view by presenting the history of Jeju and its people as a struggle against the centre by the periphery and dominated by different colonial powers over 1000 years. The article proposes jamnyo’s fireplace (bulteok) as a social model for healing.

This article is focused on some scenarios of a third way for Jeju Peace Island for Koreas as one of provincial government. In 2002 and 2006, We suggest United Three States of Korea : South Korea, North Korea and Jeju Island Korea. But in real situation Korean government chooses the Jeju Special Self-Governing Province. After practicing it 11 years, Jeju islanders are complaining it is not enough for them to improve its autonomy to push its policies on its way without empowering main authorities to local province from central government. So, they wants more power through revision of Korean Constitution as same as State government of USA and Switzerland such as guaranteeing special status of Jeju government as Hong Kong of China. In our opinion, in a word, Jeju islanders want to become “ Jeju Peace Self-Governing Province,” for two Koreas.

We conclude if Jeju Peace Island for Koreas 2018 gets international awareness from participants in the spheres of Peace Island Education & Tourism Welfare Model at the Grass Roots Level, it will contribute to institutionalization of both peace island and welfare tourism. In addition, if Jeju government supports the financial budget for the establishment of a Jeju Peace University or a Jeju Environmental University, our efforts might include an impetus to create and operate a Jeju Peace University or a Jeju Environmental University based on collaborative Jeju Peace Studies in Korea and internationally in the nearer future. Of course, we believe that, through this kind of collaborative leadership, a vision of a Nonviolence Korea “Jeju Peace Island for two Koreas” might serve as a buffer zone potentially approved by the Six Nations in the Asia Pacific region in 2019.

The aim of this paper is to illuminate some aspects of the Jeju 4.3 Grand Tragedy (the Jeju Tragedy) education and informing process. We hope to not only with these aspects show some aspects of moral origin of the Jeju World Peace Island movement, but to share a culture of peace with world citizens through world civilization education cross the Pacific at a local, national and global level. In addition bring liberty to the cause of national freedom of the SAM IL movement of 1919 in Korea. it actualizes itself as a peace buffer zone locally, nationally and globally through the “Jeju World Peace Island Treaty JWPIT,” based on international agreement of the Six Talks Nations because “it is believed that that they (Jeju islanders) will follow the pattern of the SAM IL movement of 1919 with the participants imbued with the spirit of sacrifice to life and liberty to the cause of national freedom (G-2 Summary Report)” as a moral origin of Jeju World Peace Island. Globally, one New Haven teacher has been working on an elective course called “The Power of Culture in a Multicultural World” in which to use social studies tools to investigate the meaning and importance of culture. Jeju offers an excellent opportunity to explore a culture that few New Haven students are familiar with. It will be for students to use the Jeju idea of turning troubles into opportunities, as a vehicle for addressing local issues” (“New Haven Learn- Teach Jeju 4.3,” New Haven Independent: March 29, 2017). Another New Haven teacher in his history class explains the different components of genocide. “Although the Jeju 4.3 events are not deemed genocide by the international community, using this as a lens to understand broader concepts seemed really exciting.” Jeju offers educators an opportunity to teach the curriculum but instead of gratuitous death and violence, there is a legacy of hope, healing, reconciliation and remembrance.” (Ibid, New Haven Independent: March 29, 2017). Locally and partially on the global level, “The Resurgence of Jeju 4.3 Social Healing Advocacy of “PETITION FOR A JOINT SOUTH KOREA AND UNITED STATES JEJU 4.3 INCIDENT TASK FORCE TO FURTHER IMPLEMENT RECOMMENDATIONS AND FOSTER COMPREHENSIVE AND ENDURING SOCIAL HEALING THROUGH JUSTICE” (March 27, 2014). The petition supports a combined solution to social healing for numerous survivors of Jeju 4.3. Based on interviews with members of the Jeju 4.3 Victim Family Association, 20% of them are now elderly and require expensive medical care and assistance. Many continue to suffer from psychological trauma (PTSD). It serves as a beacon of international peace in the same vein as May 24, 2015’s event, “Women Cross DMZ Demilitarized Zone.” Jeju itself aims to serve as a “Peace Buffer Zone” between the two Koreas among 6 Nations Talks within the framework of the Jeju World Peace Island Treaty, similar to Costa Rica. Never before has the need for a Peace Island in the region been so vital, with China stretching its reach across the ocean, and President Trump flexing his muscles against North Korea, the time has come for serious peacemaking, that is, prevention of conflict. It’s a real time to think about actualization of Jeju World Peace Island Treaty for Peace between two Koreas.

I want to explore some of the efforts that people living on small islands on this Island Earth have used to manage peace in their often remote places, distant from state government as all of us know it and very immediate in consequences. At the end of my conceptual survey, I propose that a space for peace could be created on Jeju Island, the Peace Island, and that an appropriate mechanism could be something we might call the “Jeju Peace Island Peace Bultuk” where interested parties can come to discuss in cultural calm and natural beauty their seeming diffculties. I give my reasons throughout the paper why I have selected Jeju Peace Island as a place for peace not only for its conditions today, but owing to features of its special cultural history. Looking at a map again, Jeju is quite separate from its neighbours in East Asia. Whilst being politically a part of the Republic of Korea, it is an autonomous region where constitutionally it could create special conditions that would permit it to assume a global role in peace negotiations. That crucial location in East Asia is a symbolic shift from the European Atlantic to the Asian Pacifc as the new locus of world power, culture and economy. Jeju’s location is very much in accord with Asia’s growing importance in world affairs. By establishing a World Peace Tribunal or “Bultuk” on Jeju Peace Island it would acknowledge this power shift as the reality that it is. On 27 January 2005, the Government of South Korea declared Jeju “Peace Island” laying the foundation for this proposal. A little over a year later, on 1 July 2006, the Republic of Korea advanced even further by declaring Jeju Peace Island an “Autonomous Self-Governing Province”, providing the basis for the place to assume an international and independent role in world affairs. Unlike existing European focused places of peace, Jeju is a small island with a small population, without global commercial, economic or political interests as is the case with The Netherlands, Switzerland and the USA, respectively. Apart from being an island with restful scenery and many pleasant places where such a World Peace Tribunal could be established, there are characteristics of the ancient Jeju culture that I think make it an appropriate place for the twenty-frst century experiment in world problem solutions.

I suggest a theory of World Peace Island of Jeju Island as Demilitarized Zone rather than Militarized Islands for Prosperity and Peace for Pacific Civilization upon Tolerance Philosophy of Islanders in this article. In order to reach a win-win policy for both Koreas as well as the other nations involved in the so-called “Six-Party Talks”, Korean leaders for a new age of Korean unification (including President, Lee Myung-bak, the 2012 leading Presidential candidates such as Congresswoman Park Geun-hye, Congressman, Sohn Hak-kyu,Chung Se-kyun and others) must recognize a new paradigm for Korean re- unification in the context of framework of peaceful coexistence of civilizations.Even though both President Lee Myung-bak and former President Roh Moo-hyun have emphasized the Swiss model for small nations to keep the peace (military armament) rather than the Costa Rican model (disarmament), the time has come for us to think seriously and incrementally about a new paradigm toward Jeju Island as Demilitarized World Peace Island. We should learn the lessons of non-militarized autonomous regions of Madeira of Portugal,Majorca of Spain, Spitz Bergen of Norway, Åland of Finland. We should create Jeju Island as World Peace Island for peaceful Pacific beyond trauma and ordeal of colonized or militarized fate of Pacific islands such as the Okinawa of Japan, the Hawaii of United States, the Sakhalin of Russia, the Hainan Dao of Mainland China. If Jeju Island will be designated as demilitarizedPeace Island through international treaty by the Six-Party Talks Countries (USA, China, Japan, South Korea, North Korea, and Russia) by an internationaltreaty of the United Nations, we should expect Jeju Island to play an important role not only in the prosperity of Pacific civilization but also peaceful coexistence between the two Koreas.
