Career

Shortly after Korea was liberated from the Empire of Japan on August 15, 1945, Sohn Won-yil, a former merchant mariner and son of the independence activist Sohn Jung-do,^[2] led the Maritime Affairs Association.

After the new Republic of Korea government was established on August 15, 1948, the Korean Coast Guard was formally renamed the Republic of Korea Navy, and Sohn became the first Chief of Naval Operations of the ROK Navy on September 5, 1948.^[3]

After relieved from the service, he was appointed as the fifth Minister of National Defense, and the first ambassador to West Germany.
