The George Rose photographs of Korea has revealed many aspects of Korea's recent history that many may well have forgotten.
George Rose, an Australian photographer, visited Korea in 1904. Rose took a number of photographs of everyday life in Korea at that time.
These historically-significant images were drawn to the attention of the both countries.
In 2004, with the co-operation of the National Institute of Korean History, Korean photographer Mr Koo Bohn-chang, Mr Ron Blum of Adelaide, and Mr Norman Thorpe of the USA produced a high quality book of the George Rose photographs, "1904 Korea through Australian Eyes".
The book was co-published by Kyobo Book Centre and the Australia-Korea Foundation.
