As for the news of Lee’s visit that day, many media companies left the scene as articles. It was with Lee’s photo looking at the new airport site in Gadeokdo Island. However, there is a hidden secret in this photo (first and third photo of the article). Representative Lee posed in front of an airplane model as if to symbolize the future that the new airport will show. The sentence on the plane was “We want to live.” I wondered for a moment whether it was a model installed by local residents who eagerly wished for an economic project called the new airport. However, if you look at other pictures, the reality of this plane (?) becomes clearer.
