"Indonesia and Korea have different cultural traditions and heritage, but one important common historical heritage we share is the independence movement and the declaration of independence," Chung said.The exhibition brings together the story of Kim Koo with materials documenting Indonesia's independence movement. Chung said the event could provide a strong foundation for expanding cultural cooperation between the two countries.The cultural exchanges between Indonesia and South Korea, including the growing popularity of K-pop and Korean culture in Indonesia, did not emerge in isolation, he added, but could also be built on the countries' historical and cultural ties. "This kind of cultural sharing is based on our common historical and cultural heritage," Chung said.Chung also pointed to the proximity of the two countries' independence commemorations. "We have very close common historical and cultural heritage in the independence movement. So, maybe that will be our responsibility and our efforts for further cooperation and development together," Chung said.
