Sinchon County in South Hwanghae Province is a place where the US imperialists and their stooges committed the atrocities of mass murder while the Korean People's Army was carrying out a strategic temporary retreat during the Korean war (June 1950 - July 1953).
During their occupation of Sinchon for 52 days (October 17 - December 7, 1950) the US aggressors slaughtered 35,383 people, a quarter of the total population of the county.
