Haza KMay 16, 2017온몸바쳐 나라를 위해 헌신한 독립운동가나 민주투사들의 후손들은 생활보호대상자로 근근히 살아가고 친일반민족세력들은 기득권세력으로 큰소리치고 사는 나라.어버이연합이나 박사모새끼들이 빨갱이라고 하는 분들사진이 많이 있다.

Minyoung KANGOctober 18, 2010김기덕감독의 <숨> 촬영지로 알게 된 곳. 많은 영화들이 이곳에서 찍혔는데 정작 관심있는 것은 그 영화뿐. 비오는 날 추적추적 형무소 앞길을 걸으면 느와르라도 찍어야할 판으로 멋지다.Upvote4Downvote

어두운 서대문형무소는 정말 으스스하다. 하지만 그 역사적 의미를 생각하면 가슴 아파해야 한다.Upvote1Downvote
