This march was originally made during the Japanese occupation, hence the reference to thirty million Koreans, as well as the theme of independence. Despite its thematic obsolescence, it remains a popular song in the South Korean army to this day.

NB! The lyrics were translated by someone who is not natively Korean! If you are Korean and see any discrepancies in the lyrics, feel free to point them out in the comments.
