A Record of a New Beginning: The Exhibition of Former Congressman Roh Moo-hyun

One of the exhibition halls at the Roh Moo-hyun Memorial Center focuses on his time as a member of the National Assembly. It vividly captures his struggles and decisions as he transitioned from a young human rights lawyer to a politician. The exhibition includes videos of his parliamentary speeches, showcasing his passion for fighting within the system for a "world where people live with dignity." On one side of the hall, materials from his election campaigns in Busan, letters exchanged with citizens, and records of his speeches are neatly displayed. His messages advocating for political reform and the dismantling of regionalism leave a profound impression on visitors. The walls of the exhibition space are inscribed with his own words, creating a sense of hearing his voice directly. Meeting minutes, newspaper clippings, and handwritten notes from that time reveal his sincerity and determination, even amidst the challenges of real-world politics. The softly lit space is not merely a retrospective but a place to reflect on the 'courage to begin.' This exhibition calmly narrates the moment when an individual embraced ideals and stepped into the realm of reality.
