The National Assembly Library serves as a parliamentary library for the members of the National Assembly and legislative support groups and has been open to the general public since 1998.
The National Assembly Building is the building that serves as the location of the National Assembly of the Republic of Korea. The building was completed in 1975. Before that, it was located in the Japanese General Government Building built by the Japanese during the period of colonial rule. Elections for the National Assembly were first held under UN supervision on May 10th, 1948 and the First Republic of South Korea was established on July 17th, 1948 when the constitution of the First Republic was established by the Assembly.
For those interested in history, the National Assembly website has a basic video about Korean history. It shows the long history of the Korean people, the extent of land and influence they had, and the way they were influenced by other nations, all of which have had a great impact on the Korean people today.

A personal note: As of this posting, I finally figured out how to create a direct link to other websites--so exciting (for me)! I apologize for all the times I gave the instruction to cut and paste the links into your browser and now that I've entered the 21st century, I promise you you won't have to do that again. Sorry for the inconvenience. I am proof that you can change your brain!
