Dr. [[Kim Yong-woo]], the first [[Tiger Scout (Korea Scout Association)|Tiger Scout]] and former [[Ministry of National Defense (South Korea)|Minister of National Defense]] was awarded the [[Bronze Wolf Award]], the only distinction of the [[World Organization of the Scout Movement]], awarded by the World Scout Committee for exceptional services to world Scouting, in 1975.
== History ==
=== Scouting during Japanese rule ===
Japanese military authorities did not consistently encourage the Scouting movement in occupied territories. Where local conditions were favorable, authorities would permit local Scouting or introduce Japanese-style Scouting, or ''Shōnendan'', and sometimes even made this compulsory. On the other hand, where conditions were not favorable, and anti-Japanese sentiments were likely to be nurtured through Scouting, the authorities would prohibit it entirely. Scouting in Korea was prohibited by the Japanese occupation authorities from 1937 to 1945.<ref>http://www.scout.org.hk/article_attach/14529/p14.pdf War and Occupation, 1941-1945 by Paul Kua, Deputy Chief Commissioner (Management), Scout Association of Hong Kong, 2010</ref>

An active [[Air Scout]] program is also popular.
