Most infamously, the group massacred thousands of people in the Jeju Uprising. HistoryThe Northwest Youth League was established in November 30, 1946 by refugees escaping Soviet-occupied North Korea. Murals in the Jeju April 3 Peace Park Museum state that Northwest Youth League members fought Soviets and Korean communists because “members of their family had been imprisoned, raped or murdered in North Korea, and that their property had been confiscated.”[1] The league conducted vigilante justice against suspected communists with no legal basis. The league was supported by Syngman Rhee, the ardent, anti-communist, US-backed autocrat of South Korea.[2] A socialist uprising in Jeju occurred from 1948 to 1949, followed by a violent suppression campaign.[3][4] According to Bruce Cumings, the league was brutal towards towards the residents of Jeju Island, exercising more authority than the police.[5] An estimated 30,000 people were slaughtered in Jeju by paramilitary groups including the Northwest Youth League.[3][4] Survivors give accounts of torture used against children and mass murder.[6] This created deep resentment in Jeju residents. What began as an anti-communist movement, quickly became a force to crush anyone who opposed President Rhee and the Korea Democratic Party. A decade after the Korean War, Rhee was forced into exile after the April Revolution in South Korea. Anti-communism remained a powerful force, especially during the dictatorships of Park Chung-hee and Chun Doo-Hwan.[7] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.jejuweekly.com/news/articleView.html?idxno=1435|title=The Northwest Youth League - JEJU WEEKLY|website=www.jejuweekly.com}} {{improve categories|date=January 2019}}2. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.jejuweekly.com/news/articleView.html?idxno=657|title=Islanders still mourn April 3 massacre - JEJU WEEKLY|website=www.jejuweekly.com}} 3. ^1 {{cite book|author=Hugh Deane|title=The Korean War, 1945–1953|url=https://books.google.nl/books?id=32Vy2Fj4KFUC|year=1999|publisher=China Books&Periodicals, Inc|pages=54–58}} 4. ^1 {{Cite journal|url = |title = Cheju-do Rebellion|last = Merrill|first = John|date = 1980|journal = The Journal of Korean Studies|doi = |pmid = |access-date = |pages = 139–197}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://islandstudies.net/weis/weis_2016v06/v06n4-2.pdf |title=American Responsibility and the Massacres in Cheju Conference on Overcoming the Past: Healing and Reconciliation -- Cheju and the World in Comparison |last=Cumings |first=Bruce |date=December 20, 2016 |website= |format=PDF}} 6. ^{{cite web|url=http://english.hani.co.kr/arti/english_edition/e_national/867579.html|title=Memories of pain and loss from the Apr. 3 Jeju Uprising and massacre|website=english.hani.co.kr}} 7. ^{{cite web|url=https://m.koreatimes.co.kr/pages/article.asp?newsIdx=173822|title=History of anti-communism in South Korea|date=17 February 2015|website=m.koreatimes.co.kr}} 1 : Anti-communism in South Korea |
