This is one of the most interesting part of modern Korean history. Finally some lights shed on this event. There are some Korean movies and dramas that predated K-drama boom. Those are definitely worth watching. Common answer that is widely accepted answer is that it was due to personal rage but it's still somewhat mysterious. There is famous quote about this assassination. 'This was too emotional to be a deliberate coup and too deliberate to be a result of rage' We still do not know to this day and will never have full picture of what was happening inside the brain of Kim Jaegyu forever.

It got suggested for you cause you recently searched/watched similar thing or wrote key word like "assassination"

[@chik3nTendies]

Probably because you have already watched videos with the title "president" and "assassination" since the trump thing. Its just you tube algorithm. Nothing mysterious about it.

[@joshsong1713]

although many theories arise about the murder of President Park, I believe that it was somewhat of an overreaction to the riots that were growing in Busan and Masan at the time that were growing due to anti Park sentiments, Kim took it into his hands and attempted to stop Park before things get out of hand.

[@walterzamalis4846]

I wrote an essay in high school comparing the murder of Park Chung-hee by Kim Jae-gyu to the murder of Mr Park by Mr Kim in the film Parasite. I argued that the assassination in 1979 was such a huge event it had to have inspired Boon’s film, and that, even if 30% of Koreans have the surnames Park and Kim, the two families in Parasite were named for the President and his killer. It made sense to me because the reason why those surnames are so popular is because working-class people had to adopt a surname in the 19th century, and names that originated from Chinese royal dynasties (like Park and Kim) was a way of making yourself seem more well-off than you were. The film’s ending at its core reflects the metaphorical significance of the working poor lashing out at not just the rich and arrogant, but at the entire neoliberal, rigid class system that dominates South Korean society. Both Kim’s shot “at the heart of the Yushin constitution”; both killings were an act of self-sacrifice, even if there was pettiness beneath them.

[@sharpasacueball]

Park and Kim surnames do not originate from Chinese royal dynasties. Also, I think it's a bit of a stretch to call the killing in Parasite by the dad a "self-sacrifice"

[@joonhojung7765]

Park and Kim do not originate from those retarted Chinese in the 19th century. Do your research first before writing an essay. The surname Kim in Korea originated from back in the days of Shilla dynasty, not from China durning the 19th century.

[@송수환-l3r]

@@sharpasacueball I agree.

[@dfkfgjfg]

​@@sharpasacueball They're not completely wrong since they originate from Silla and Gaya "dynasties" which from Chinese people's perspective is their own history, but we obviously think that's a joke anywhere else internationally since Silla is very much Korean history. Goguryeo on the other hand is somewhat debatable as to how Chinese or Korean it was and we'll probably never truly know.

[@seha4445]

⁠@@dfkfgjfg”somewhat debatable” lmao the only reason China’s actively insisting that nonsense in recent years is because China wants to absorb NK when it crumbles down and they need a justifiable claim to do so.

General Chung was the top military officer and General Chun was the head of military intelligence and his subordinate. Crucially General Chung organized an alumni association of the Korean Military Academy centered around his class, the first in the school's history with a 4 year curriculum, and heavy with clout as the most senior officers with a modern education. Chun was a protégé of General Park.

Anybody who s has done business in Korea, lived there for a while knows there's a bit of a difference in how things are done. Westerners unfamiliar with korea probably cannot comprehend . As for the theory that the assassination was spontaneous and ill planned , in Korea, people tend to act very spontaneously, spir of the moment , decisions are made at the last minute . And w e l l , it is often the case that plans are not w e l l thought out . President park himself was japan educated , he carried out a coup de tat successfully.
