He played an important part in foundation construction of Korean society in West-Gando after the attempt to take away the Korean national sovereignty by Japan, and based on this the fact that he was appointed in leader of KwangbokDan, director of bureau of education in Federation of Korean Young Man Association, deputy section of commander of Headquarters of the Korean Independence Army, which claimed to advocate the military agency in West-Gando of Korean Provisional Government, and deputy chief of staff of General Camp of the Korean Independence Army supported his leadership as a middle-grade executive of field and practical type. The fact that the relationship between Ahn Chang-ho and Lee Tak was compatible with the relationship between Sun Wen and Hwang Xing in the sight of Chinese journalists supported in this situation. Lee Tak was portrayed as a person who had altruistic mind and put priority over common good remaining anonymous. Given the fact that Ahn Chang-ho was the central figure in Korean Provisional Government shortly after its establishment, it could be estimated that Lee Tak played an important role to form connection between Korean Provisional Government in Shanghai and the party of independence movement in West-Gando. It was possible to his social and economical background that he was an influential person secured the financial and human foundation in Pyeongan province, geographical proximity between Pyeongan province and West-Gando and personal connections between the leading influence of independence party in two regions and their solidarity relationship. It was supported that he actively participated in unification movement of organization of army for national independence coming and going Shanghai in which was the Korean Provisional Government and North and South Manchuria. Especially, the middle base or existence of network appeared in the progress of establishing solidarity with the parties of independence movement in each region and activities of penetration into Korea implicated that the parties of independence movement in inside and outside of the country were active in mutual communication and solidarity shortly after the establishment of Korean Provisional Government as well as the operation of organizations of the government such as Yeontongbu, Department of Transportation and propagandists. With these facts, since Lee Tak born in the oldest son of large landowner who had a big tract of land in 3 province in Pyeonganbuk-do devoted in independence movement and in the progress of independence movement he disposed of his property to appropriate funds for movement, his journey of independence movement is not a case to fine simply. So it is worth paying attention to his independence movement.
