Taken by an English photographer in the 19th century, this image offers a glimpse into education in South Korea during that time. The photograph depicts Dr Landis surrounded by a group of school children. Their eager faces reflect the importance they placed on education despite the challenges faced by their nation. The setting is Chemulpo (now known as Incheon), a bustling port city in South Korea. Dr Landis was renowned for his dedication to providing quality education to Korean students. His school served as a beacon of hope, empowering these young minds with knowledge and skills necessary for their future endeavors.
