⁸ Kim claimed he lived with other child-beggars under a bridge in central Seoul. See Tu-han, Kim, Kim Tu-han chasŏjŏn (Autobiography of Kim Tu-Han), vol. 1 (Seoul: Maet’ŭro sinmunsa, 2002), pp. 49–56Google Scholar. Many aspects of Kim Tu-han's life seem unbelievable, in part because of the embellishments that have been added by Kim himself and by later media treatments of his story. He claimed to be both the son of a national hero and a street urchin with nobody to whom to turn. Further, his given name, ‘Tu-han’, means ‘fighting man’, which seems a striking coincidence for a man who went on to be just that. However, evidence from news reports confirms his name and his childhood situation. As early as 1925, Kim Tu-han was listed in a report as the child of Kim Chwa-jin. Though this evidence does not prove Kim's biological paternity, it does rule out the possibility that the link to Kim Chwa-jin was a myth constructed by Kim later in his career. Shortly after Kim Chwa-jin's death, the Andong Kim association announced in a newspaper a meeting to discuss the future of orphaned Kim Tu-han.

¹⁰ Kim was the subject of multiple films in the 1970s. In the 1980s several authors wrote about him and other colonial gangsters in a romantic way. A serialized version of his story was published by Hong Sŏng-yu as ‘The Human Theatre’ (In’gan kŭkchang). This version was turned into a film, The General's Son (Changgun ŭi adŭl). Directed by the famous filmmaker Im Kwŏn-t’aek, The General's Son broke box-office records and led to two sequels. The story centred on a young Kim Tu-han fighting Japanese police and gangsters. This interpretation of Kim as an anti-Japanese hero remained in subsequent treatments, including the 126-part 2002–03 television drama, Yain sidae.

Kim (vol. 1, p. 163) puts a patriotic spin on his involvement in this organization when he explains that his ‘basic objective in establishing the Peninsula Volunteer Youth Association was, first, to avoid imprisonment on Haenam Island and, second, to raise a youth organization that could one day play a central nationalist role in liberated Korea’. At other points he is more honest about his collaboration: ‘Even though it would mean I, the son of General “Paengnya” Kim Chwa-jin, would be supporting Japan, I made the grim (pijanghan) decision to save myself and my 3,000 men’ (vol. 1, p. 132).
