"Our students are studying the juche ideology of Kim Il-sung (in history classes),” read one of the placards distributed across South Korea by ruling Saenuri Party this week. Juche, or self-reliance, is the backbone of the North Korean dictatorship.
Saenuri and the government have recently pushed ahead with their plan to revive state-authored textbooks for secondary education, alleging that the current privately-published textbooks are biased in favor of the leftists and even the Pyongyang government which Seoul does not recognize as a legitimate state.

At the center of the dispute are six of eight local publishers of high school Korean history textbooks -- Kumsung Publishing, Doosan Dong-A, Mirae-N, Visang, Jihak Publishing and Chunjae Education -- that are embroiled in a legal dispute with the Education Ministry over the contents since 2013.
Earlier this month, the ministry criticized the publishers for filing lawsuits instead of complying with its order to revise the books, saying that the textbooks carry descriptions of the juche idea without criticism and look like “North Korean textbooks.”
For example, the textbook by Kumsung explains that juche is a “worldview based on the individual, and a revolutionary idea to realize independence of the people.”
Kumsung and Visang were ordered to revise a section which describe that after Korea’s liberation in 1945, North Korean committee distributed land it had seized from pro-Japanese and Japanese citizens to the people for free, as the ministry said the description excluded the negative aspects of the land reform policy. The textbook also says that economic development under former President Park Chung-hee had many side effects. It claims that foreign capital that was invested during the Park regime was one of the causes of the Asian financial crisis in 1997, which the ministry said was baseless.
Doosan Dong-A and Jihak Publishing failed to point out that North Korea was responsible for the 2010 sinking of South Korean war corvette Cheonan and shelling of Yeonpeyong, a frontline island in the West Sea. They are also accused of neglecting negative aspects of the North’s Chollima Movement for economic development launched in the late 1950s.
Mirae-N was ordered to revise parts of its textbook about the 1950-53 Korean War. It mentions carnage on civilians by both Koreas in the war, and only gives the example of a massacre carried out by the South Korean Army.
