[100 Years Ago Today] October 16, 1926 - Gyeongseong Two Weeks After the Government-General Building Dedication, with 'Arirang' Packing Danseongsa and the June 10 Incident Trial Continuing That Saturday
- This is a serial feature that looks back at Saturday, October 16, 1926, in Gyeongseong, centering on the dedication of the Government-General building two weeks earlier and the screening of 'Arirang' at Danseongsa.
- The dedication ceremony for the Joseon Government-General building was held on October 1, and on the same day Na Un-gyu's silent film 'Arirang' premiered at Danseongsa.
- Because no original newspaper text, weather, prices, or theater screening records for October 16 have been confirmed, the day is depicted based on the events confirmed over the two weeks.
