The Korean National Army Corps (Korean: 대조선국민군단) was a military training group established by Park Yong-man on June 10, 1914 at the Ahuimanu Pineapple Farm in Kahaluu, Koolau, Oahu, Hawaii for the purpose of training military officers for the Korean Independence Movement. Due to pressure from the Empire of Japan and the United States, as well as drought affecting their crops, they were forced to close down.[1]
