DATE 29 15 Jun 48 SECTION II: COUNTER INTELLIGENCE 971st CIC DETACHMENT: XXIV Corps 3. Subversive activity a. Radical (2) Constabulary, Cheju-do Communists Collaborate: Kim Jang-hung, leader of the Communist forces on Choju-do, and members of the Intelligence Staff of the Pusan Constabulary Headquarters, are reported to have reached an agreement on 14 Apr 48 whereby the constabulary would not fight the Cheju-do Communists if the Communists attacked only the National Police. Korean Communist guerillas on Cheju-do reportedly number approximately 5,000 under the leadership of Kim Jang-hung, formerly a captain in the Japanese army and later a member of the Korean Communist forces in Yenan. Kim went to Choju-do from Pyongyang in Oct 45, according to informants. Ho and his men, who call themselves the Special Attack Corps, are believed to be hiding in caves on Mt. Halla where they have stores of food, arms and ammunition for both Japanese and Soviet small arms. The agreement between Kim and the Pusan constabulary was allegedly accomplished with the aid of Col Leo Hyung-koun, of the Korean Constabulary General Staff in Seoul, a former classmate of Kim Jang-hung.
