The Busan–Masan Uprising or abbreviated, the Bu-Ma Uprising, was a series of demonstrations and popular uprising against President Park Chung Hee's dictatorial Yushin regime in South Korea. It took place between 16 and 20 October 1979 in Busan and Masan (now a district of Changwon, South Korea). Students from Pusan National University began demonstrations calling for an end to Park's dictatorship. On 17 October the protests grew to include citizens and spread to Masan on 18 and 19 October.[1] It is also called the Busan–Masan Democratic Uprising (Шаблон:Ko-hhrm) or Busan–Masan Democratization Movement (Шаблон:Ko-hhrm).[2]

President Park Chung Hee declared martial law on 18 October and referred 66 people to military court.[3] On 20 October, Park invoked the Garrison Act. The army was mobilized, and 59 civilians were brought to military court. Six days later, Park was assassinated by his own intelligence chief Kim Jae-gyu, leading to the Seoul Spring and seizure of power by general Chun Doo-hwan the following year.

Background

In August 1979, female workers of the YH Trading Company (Шаблон:Lang) performed a sit in at the headquarters of the New Democratic Party. Because of the lockout, the ruling Republican Party expelled Kim Young-sam[4] from the National Assembly, leading to the resignation of all opposition party members from the National Assembly.
