Jang Tae-wan (장태완, 張泰玩 1931–2010) was an army general and politician of South Korea. Jang was the commander of the Capital Garrison Command (now Capital Defense Command) during the Coup d'état of December Twelfth. The Hanahoe, which was the prime mover group of the coup d'état tried to appease Jang. However, the staunch Jang rejected it. Instead, Jang cursed and swore at them strongly, "You god damn rebels! Do not move and stay there! I will drive a tank right now and blow your heads away!"((朝鮮語:야, 이 반란군 놈의 새끼들아. 너희들 거기 꼼짝말고 있어. 내가 지금 전차를 몰고가서 네 놈들의 머리통을 다날려버리겠어!)), and fought against the rebel troops. However he was defeated, being betrayed by his subordinates. Jang was imprisoned and tortured while his son, a student of Korea's Top Ranked Seoul National University, died under suspicious circumstances and was reputedly murdered by government agents; Jang's father starved himself to death.〔(‘12·12 쿠데타’ 맞선 참군인 ), ''Seoul Newspaper''〕 In later years, he served as the President of KOSCOM (Korea Securities Computer Corporation), and as President of the Korean Veterans Association. Jang Tae-Wan died in 2010 and was buried with full honors in the Generals' section of Daejon National Cemetery. Many Korean people value him as a symbol of a ''true soldier'', who had stood against coup d´état.〔(‘형님’은 잊어도 ‘장포스’는 못 잊는다 ), ''SisaIN''〕 == See also == * Coup d'état of December Twelfth * Chun Doo-hwan * Roh Tae-woo * Jeong Seung-hwa 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jang Tae-wan」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
