Fierce KMT-CPC battles had once waged on this island, and the island was controlled and stationed by the military for numerous years. That is how Dadan Island earned the nickname of "the front line of front lines and the island among the islands." Its special strategic battle position and long battle history have added a veil of mystery to the island.
