Liberation Day on August 15th is a special day in South Korea. It's when people celebrate freedom from Japanese rule, which ended in 1945. Long ago, Japan controlled Korea, and many Koreans didn't feel free. On this day, kids and adults have fun with parades and waving flags. They remember the brave people who helped Korea become a free country again. It's also a time to feel proud of their country's history and hope for a peaceful future. It's like celebrating a big birthday for the nation where everyone feels happy and thankful for being free.
