Bak Dong-jun (1915–1970) was born in Bulmok-ri, Gunoe-myeon, Wando County, South Jeolla Province. In February 1933 he joined the Wando Movement Council, working through a mutual-aid society he had helped organize to raise national consciousness among farmers and draw progressive comrades into the broader Jeonnam Movement Council. Later that year he joined a youth cell led by Kim In-hak, but in late February 1943 he and his comrades were arrested at Wando Police Station and referred to prosecution for violating the Peace Preservation Law.
