It is August 15th. and is the Independence Day of South Korea. Hence, Happy Independence Day to all South Koreans.
South Korea -- formally called the Republic of Korea -- was founded on Aug. 15, 1948 after the end of Japanese rule, which lasted from 1910-1945. Technically, North and South Korea remain in a state of war because the 1950s Korean War ended with an armistice, not a peace treaty.
Today, Bahrain, Congo and India are also celebrating their Independence day hence, I wish the citizens of these countries a happy Independence Day too.
Wish them all peace and progress.
