Sim Hun
Sim Daeseop (1901–1936), more commonly known by his pen name Sim Hun (also spelled Shim Hum〔http://www.iansan.net/english/tourGuide/trace/ChoiYongsin.jsp?menuId=01014016〕), was a Korean novelist, poet, playwright and patriot.
==Life and career==
Sim Hun was born in Seoul in 1901 to an old Yangban family which for centuries held high government positions and served the royal court as ministers. His father is Sim Sang-jeong and his mother came from another notable Yangban family Yun (her father was a celebrated calligrapher). Sim was the youngest of three sons and had one sister. He entered the Gyeongseong Ordinary School (경성보통학교, now Gyeonggi High School) in 1915, but due to his participation in the March 1st Movement protests against Japanese rule in Korea in 1919, was arrested and expelled.〔 When he was in prison, Sim wrote his famous impassioned letter to his mother vowing to fight for the freedom of his country ("the Greater Mother") from Japanese rule. Imprisoned for eight months, he went into exile in Hangzhou, China where he attended the Zhejiang University, returning to Korea in 1923.〔
From then until 1930, Sim worked as a newspaper columnist and reporter at the ''Dong-a Ilbo'', ''Chosun Ilbo'', and ''Joseon Jung-ang Ilbo''. His arranged marriage to his first wife Yi Hae-yeong (이해영, 李海暎) ended in divorce (1917-1924). Yi Hae-yeong was from the Yi royal family, the daughter of a duke. In 1930, Sim married Ahn Jeong-ok (1913-2004), a "modern woman" whom he met at a music-theatre group, with whom he had three sons; Jae-geun, Jae-gwang and Jae-ho. In 1935 he won an award for his most famous novel ''Sangroksu''; he used the prize money to create the Sangrok Academy. Sim is credited for the Sangrok (Evergreen Tree) movement which encouraged young, educated people to move to the countryside to educate and organize rural populace, and awaken them from their oppression (e.g., Japanese colonial rule, traditional landed gentry class). He died in 1936 of typhoid fever without seeing his country independence that came in 1945.〔
