The War Memorial Society, which operates the War Memorial, stated that they are considering reinstallation after repairing the model. The Dokdo model located in Jamsil Station’s large hall was removed on the 8th of last month, and the one in the center of Anguk Station was removed on the 12th. The construction side initially explained the removal as a “preemptive safety measure,” but after continued controversy, they apologized the next day and promised to reinstall the Dokdo sculpture.’,
