<![CDATA[Post-1945 events in Korea and the Korean War (1950–1953)’ constitute a pivotal chapter in East Asian history, profoundly shaping the region's political, social, and security landscape to this day. The end of the Japanese occupation in 1945 resulted in the division of the Korean Peninsula into two spheres of influence: North Korea under the Soviet Union and South Korea under the United States. Diverging ideologies in these regions subsequently ignited the Korean War in 1950. Various historical sites associated with these events remain extant, serving as vehicles for preserving the public's collective memory. This study aims to identify sites linked to post-1945 Korea and the Korean War and to analyze how historical information can be developed and applied at these locations. A historical research method with a qualitative approach utilizing literature reviews and documentation was employed. The findings indicate that sites such as the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ), Panmunjom, the War Memorial of Korea, Imjingak Peace Park, and the United Nations Memorial Cemetery hold significant historical value as educational resources. Developing historical information through interpretive media and digital technology can enhance public understanding of modern Korean history.]]>
