After the outbreak of the war, the first UN commission rally held at the Daegu Cultural Center.

The UN Commission on Korea (UNCOK) was established in 1948 by the United Nations to deal with Korea. After the Second World War the peninsula had been divided between a Soviet occupied north and a non-communist south. The goal of UNCOK was to arrange for a withdrawal of foreign troops and a peaceful reunification of peninsula. With the outbreak of the Korean War it was replaced with the United Nations Command.
