The Captured North Korean Documents were captured in Korea peninsular during the Korean War. It was translated into English and cataloged by the Korean elites such as Oh Chon-suk, minister of education of the U. S. Military Government in Korea, and Chang Ri-wook, president of Seoul National University who studied in the U. S.
