People pay tribute to those who went missing during the April 3 Jeju massacre, at Jeju April 3 Peace Park on Jeju, Wednesday, the 71st anniversary of the event. From 1948 to 1954, nearly 30,000 Jeju civilians were killed or went missing after being wrongfully labeled communists in an ideological conflict following Korea's liberation from Japanese colonial rule. / Yonhap
