This cache is located at the site of a new memorial commemorating the Seotal Oreum Massacre Site on Jejudo.
From the sign at the memorial:
Seotal Oreum Massacre Site
"This place used to be the largest arsenal built by compulsively mobilized people in Jeju during the Pacific War, but it was blasted by the U.S. armed forces after liberation from Japan.
The Korean War broke out on June 25, 1950. Department of the Interior Security exploited the abrogated preventive detention law that was once used by Japan to suppress our nation, and gave every police department instructions to detain and execute blacklisted people and unsavory elements. Accordingly, Moseulpo Police Station had preventively detained and closely watched 344 people until government forces stationed in Moseulpo massacred approximately 210 people (20 on July 16 and 193 on August 20 in 1950) without legal process and buried them in secret. Civil access to this area had been limited until exhumation was allowed in spring, 1956. This is the hideous spot described above."
The cache container is a small Lock-and-Lock box with small trade items.
