Description
Four teenage Korean boys closely examining something held by one of them. Behind the group is a cinema poster advertising the 1936 French film 'Nitchevo'. The boys are neatly dressed, appear well fed, and their shoulder packs suggest they are possibly some of the fortunate few attending school. One of a series of photographs taken by the Australian Mr Douglas (Doug) Bushby in his capacity as a UN accredited War Correspondent. Mr Bushby devoted much of his time to relief and missionary work amongst Korean refugees, orphans and North Korean and Chinese prisoners of war.
