Worth noting that the DPRK upholds Kim Chwa-Chin, as does the ROK, as a vital independence figure.
yeah, i hadn't ever heard of that one either. a brief look at wikipedia puts it in 1929-31, so before china was actually communist and immediately preceding the imperial occupation of china by japan, who was also at least partially responsible for it's short existence. that's a period i need to study up on as well, but it'll be a while before i can prioritize reading a book about it.
The KPAM existed in the context of Japanese colonization, many Koreans were members of the CPC and fighting alongside them against the Japanese. Japanese colonization of Korea was from 1910 to 1945, which puts the KPAM in the middle of that, and right before full colonization of Manchuria by Japan. Really messy period.
