Yun Bong-gil was born in Saryangri, Deoksanmyeon, Yesan-gun, South Chungcheong Province, and studied at Deoksan Elementary School and Ochisoesuk. At age 19, he founded a night school in his hometown and began rural enlightenment activities. At age 20, he organized the Gakgok Reading Society and compiled 'The Farmer's Primer.' At age 22, he organized the Wolchinhoei and actively developed rural movement activities. Facing difficulties in conducting independence movements domestically, at age 23, Yun Bong-gil went into exile in China and joined the Korean Patriotic Corps under Kim Gu in 1931. Continuing anti-Japanese struggles, on April 29, 1932, he single-handedly threw a bomb at the Hongkou Park in Shanghai where the Japanese were celebrating victory in the Shanghai Incident, successfully eliminating Japanese military commander Shirakawa and other Japanese military leaders. Arrested at the scene, Yun Bong-gil was sentenced to death at a military court-martial and was transferred to Japan in November. He passed away on December 19, 1932, at the Daiban Military Prison in Japan at the age of 24. The Yun Bong-gil relics include the Wolchinhoei account book (1929), two Wolchinhoei flags (1929), two letters (1931-1932), a support beam for the Revival headquarters, photographs, inkstones, brush containers, ink wells, printing blocks, and calligraphic works including poetry collections, Buddhist-related texts, and handwritten volumes (1920-1930). Also included are documents regarding fund-raising for ancestor memorial services (1929), a scroll frame, tobacco case, brass bowls and trays, spoon and chopstick sets, brass basins, and lamp stands (all 1926-1932), as well as letter envelopes with various dimensions dating to 1926-1932.
