The villagers of Daechu-ri, Paengseong-eup, Pyeongtaek-si became embroiled in a dispute with the Ministry of National Defense over the relocation of the base of the U.S. Army 2nd Infantry Division to their area in 2008. This painting realistically portrays the last sight of a village whose inhabitants had lived there for many generations, but who were forced out to make room for the U.S. army.
