한국전쟁기 동족마을 주민들의 좌우분화 - 금산군 부리면의 사례 -

초록

Kumsan Kun, Buri Myeon which is located in Chungnam province consists of 28 villages. Interestingly, most of them are consanguineous villages. Gil's family and Yang's family are two major members of the community. They are the two most influential families in town because they are Yangban and have in-laws as family relations. After the liberation of Korea in 1945, some influential figures of Gil's family took a leftist line whereas some influential figures of Yang's family took a rightist line. But some of the Gil's family members who were not under the influence of a man named Sangmok Gil turned rightist or became a police man. The opposing relationship between the two families continued during the period of Korean War. While Sangmok Gil and his son, Kyungsup Gil held important social positions in town, Eunkyu Yang from Yang's family were arrested. There was no large-scale massacre in Buri Myeon under the occupation of North Korean Army none the less because Gil's family and Yang's family were in-laws. The peaceful relationship between the two families were broken down due to a tragic massacre occurred on November 2nd. 1950. On the first day of November, rightist people in town held a rally to strengthen the unity. Partisan fighters who were only 4 kilometers away from the town were told about the rally and attacked the town in the night of the day. 78 people were killed that night. Most of them were members of the Yang's family who had planned and prepared for the rally. Some rightist members of the Gil's family were also sacrificed. A massacre on Nov. 2 in Buri Myeon could have been avoided if it had not been for a partisan.
