Yushin
South Korean President Park Chung Hee (1917–1979) set forth the idea of yushin ("revitalization" or "reform") in October 1972 when he suspended the national constitution and dissolved the national assembly. Yushin, as an idea, policy, and set of actions, included the inculcation of values supporting the new authoritarian regime as well as institutions designed to repress political opposition and the labor movement.
