“March for the Beloved” is being considered as the representative song of unified Jeonnam-Gwangju, alongside other symbols to be used after the merger. The song, widely associated with the May 18 Democratic Movement, is one of the candidates for the new citizen song.
Jeonnam-Gwangju says it plans to finalize its post-merger symbolic system this month, including the citizen song, citizens’ day, citizens’ charter and official corporate identity. The available report does not confirm whether the song will be selected as the final representative song.
