South Korea's independence day was a day to celebrate the day the royal family led to country to independence from the countries surrounding them. The royal family was hailed as the savior of the people and was as such celebrated on this day for the past hundred years. Unlike other countries, South Korea's independence day was like a carnival which was celebrated by all ages. There were concerts, stalls, games and competition. This was their culture which put the people first before anything else.

This year, the independence day was celebrated in the newly built stadium which could hold up to two hundred thousand people. The preparation had started half a year ago as the hundred anniversary of independence held a significant meaning for everyone. The Crown Prince, Prince Sunggyu had been trusted with the handling of the celebration in general. Despite the solemn mood caused by the rebellion near the border, Sunggyu was more determined than ever to make the celebration a success.

Finally, the awaited day arrived and the celebration was officially kicked off. The games and competitions were already done the previous month and what was left was only the final. The stalls had been opened since morning and people from all over the country had flooded the stadium. Foreigners also joined in in what was known as the Carnival of Freedom.

There were two stage built, one in the middle of the stadium for all the performance and one near the side especially for the royal family and Royal Council. A podium was prepared for the speech by the Crown Prince that was scheduled at night.
