Koreans, this island will become yours, we feel you, In your case this islands means much more for you, so it would be fair to give it to you. The second point of this deal is beneficial for Russia, because sharing a border with S.Korea would be a fantastic idea for Russia, it's fascinating, that we could share border with Norway, Finland and South Korea at the same time. When mafia government will collapse, i don't think NK will collapse too, considering that they are singlehandedly supported by the pooh, so unfortunately, we will not have the longer border with you, but still, for normal democratic Russia there would be really no good reason to keep it to ourselves. So i hope in one day we will be able to cross our border with one step! ❤💙
I live in Primorsky Krai, the region where that Noktundo former island is. And i have never heard of this territorial dispute, nor from our mass media, nor from outside ones, nor from individuals living in my Krai or from South Korea, nor from politicians... It seems that this dispute is not critical and not that important.
You never heard of it, because Russia is actively suppressing these kind of dangerous ideas. Just see what the Russian government is doing in occupied Ukraine with the school curriculum.
@@hendrikdependrik1891 I know of Ukraine, i'm half ukrainian with big part of my family living in Kiev. As for "supressing the ideas" - i heard of Kuril islands dispute almost every month, if not week, thanks to my geographical position, both from our mass media, japanese and western ones. I have access to western online press after all. And, well... This is really the first time i have heard of Noktundo, not even western press care about that question.
Really interesting video. Nokdundo (녹둔도) is not in the media much, as much as Dokdo (독도), but it does as you say, have a significant part in Korean history as part of the great admiral Yi Sun-Shin's early military career.
Korean history books are not credible. South Korea used to be a subsidiary of China. In modern times, it was a subsidiary of Japan. It is now a subsidiary of the United States. South Korea is a deformed country. South Koreans are also deformed
Which is interesting, given that Noktundo being rightfully part of Korea is pretty much indisputable, and it's much more historically important than Dokdo. Though the latter is a lot more valuable in the modern era, and South Korea is already in actual possession of it rather than needing to ask another nation to give it back.
Takeshima (Bamboo shoot islands) SK is illegally occupying are not Dokdo (single island) simply because they are two rocks or islands while Dokdo refers to one island.
What would S.Korea do with that land? Yes it was Korean territory but there's no way to claim it today and it is not considered as "disputed" territory. Same with Taiwan officially claiming Baekdu mountain. They claim it was given to them by japanese during their occupation of Korea but they don't dispute it as there's no way for them to occupy it. Korea would rather dispute Dae-Ma-Do.
I’m Korean and we do not even know about this bro. lmao. I’m sure where this guy the idea but I’m telling u. This is BS 😂 And bro just cill. We don’t want Daemado. We acknowledge that the land belongs to Japan.
In 2005 there was a demarcation of Russian-Chinese border, when control over a couple of islands on the Amur river with total area of 337 square kilometers was passed from Russia to China. The reason that was stated - to settle all border disagreements and to improve relations with China. So I wouldn't say that passing control over such a small "island" is out of the question, but not in the current situation certainly. Edit: since I keep getting replies about it - the phrase "not in current political situation" also includes the existence of two Koreas.
the problem lies within the 2020 "changes" to Russian constitution, which make it unlawful to give away any territory. unless these changes are revoked (and there's a good case for that in case any reformist/anti-Putin faction takes power, because 2020 "vote" (it should've been a referendum btw) is pretty much a sham, not even counting voter fraud) the current Russian government can just raise their hands and say "no can do, look at our constitution"
Well,those islands were litteral pain in the ass due to changes in the course of the river. There have even been border conflicts in 50-s and later. And half of them rigth now sunk. Happened before,they will re-emmerge later.
Also as long as South Korea remains a staunch US ally, that will never happen since it will mean US troops potentially being placed there. Just like how Russia has closed down any further negotiations with Japan over the Kuril Islands, due to Japan's foreign policy being simply an extension of US foreign policy.
I love how processes from geography likes to screw up our feeble human ideas of (natural)borders. Just like what goes on in Europe with Croatia and Serbia (I think)
Very interesting topic, I love how your channel always presents this kind of things in an interesting manner. As for the issue itself: never going to happen as the can of worms will be greater than that of Russia or South Korea. By the same logic Germany can ask both Poland and Russia to return all the land to Kaliningrad with the city itself to them as it was historically great German land and city. Furthermore, Russia (even under sanctions) is still a powerful military and political force. Add to that the North Korean agreement that the land is now Russian and you get quite the impossible situation. But the bottom line: as long as everyone has access to the land in question there is no issue as everyone can visit it at any time.
@@SapFeaRon Germany accepting Kaliningrad would have been a huge mistake, that would destabilize a recently unified Germany. Now Germany has to accept a bunch of Russians and make them citizens, while already still dealing with millions of east Germans from 2 years ago.
@@mrbisshie they also offered it to Lithuania but they refused as well Since if they did take it. It would’ve made Lithuanian a over 1/4 ethnically Russian
In fact, the reason why many South Koreans are indifferent to the issue is that the land is currently under North Korea's control. If it was the land of South Korea now, Koreans would have been very interested.
@@포플러-c9s Korea was a tributary state of Ming that adopted Ming customs for the government and the royal affairs. The King of Korea held the Ming title of Prince.
However, living in Seoul, I've never met anyone who talks about Noktundo. I think that if a unified Korea get territory beyond the Tuman River, it will be more difficult to defend our borders...
Dokdo seems to be similar in its symbolic value, because I remember seeing this video repeat on the Seoul metro showing proof of documents affirming South Korea as rightful controller of the Island. I have no idea the value of such islands, militarilly i could see it, but i thought it was interesting to bring up.
@@Michael_Wurster Since korea was one country on 14 century if this part has to be claimed to korea it should be to the north because 38 degree divide north and south. This will not happen since US will not return the land to the native Americans
@@facelessgod-kg7xk That’s ridiculous because both Koreas claim the whole penninsula and every single islands. 38th parallel was just a temporal border between north and south after the independence and before the war. It doesn’t give any justification to any territorial dispute today
Also, in Russian law it is LITERALLY illegal to ever succeed territory to another country. That alone would put the matter out of the question as an excuse for Russia to refuse to even discuss the issue.
@@KOTYAR1 all countries are ruled by Oligarchs. All these Korean conglomerates. Who do you think run these corporations. All Oligarchs and the Korean government lives to protect their power. The difference is that when Oligarchs get out of line in Russia, Putin makes them go swim with the fishes and makes them become one with the Universe.
The territory is extremely insignificant if South Korea abandons the alliance with the United States And we will start negotiations with China and Russia, and make a U-turn in its favor. This will instantly lead to a breakthrough in relations, and then this territory can even be transferred free of charge or even connect both Koreas. This will affect the standard of living, and the economy is very strong, yes. But choosing in favor, giving up freedom, for the sake of the strength of the nation, this is what great nations do. 75 million United Korea, I think it will be a very serious country. And then it will be possible to claim not only revenge for the massacre of Koreans from Japan, or put up with the rejection of the Japanese islands. And already claim the annexation of Japan.
That's not 100% correct. Our law says that exceptions are possible in case of delimitation or demarcation of the border with a neighborhood countries. So, it is not strictly forbidden to cede some land if the goverment wants to do it. The quote in Russian: Действия (за исключением делимитации, демаркации, редемаркации государственной границы Российской Федерации с сопредельными государствами), направленные на отчуждение части территории Российской Федерации, а также призывы к таким действиям не допускаются.
Korea could claim vastly more land than that on a historical basis. Korea had control of a considerable portion of the area North of the Yalu River at several points in time.
That's why China is doing that historical revisionist project to erase ancient Korean history in Manchuria including Koguryeo. Because they can only think in the way they themselves think: that we Koreans will somehow try to claim that land, but Koreans are not cr4zy nor do we have interest or power to actually take over Chinese Northeast. CCP has more political reasons to do that historical revisionism mainly: in case North Korea collapses and possibly get absorbed by South Korea. They need every justification to control the North due to US army presence in the South, which will want to take part in whatever happens in the North. Its a hairy situation that not many outside Korea and Chinese top knows.
If this ever happened I think we would get a situation similar to the West German embassy in Vienna in the late 80’s. So many North Koreans would swim over to the island and claim asylum in the south.
If Russia wanted to mess with North and South Korea, selling the territory to South Korea could be an amusing way to mess with North and South Korea. North Korea would flip out if they suddenly had South Korea to the north of them.
@@rdelrosso1973 Because South Korea would pay more. It'd cost stability issues in the area for South Korea, North Korea, China, Japan, and America to deal with. Also, it'd be funny.
It was very informative and profoundly shocking that this territorial issue even existed. Also, your narration was spot on. As a Korean descendant, I have never heard about this, but it is obvious there that you have researched and now we know. Thank you! ps- btw, are you a Brit? Your pronunciation of Korean was pretty amazing and I couldn't get my head around to figure out your nationality.
If you look a little back in history you might find out that Taejo of Joseon was unable take over all of Goryo (Koryo) and it's people were (are?) not even considered to be Koreans by the "proper, non-barbaric" Koreans despite having practically the same language and culture. So you can theoretically fit a third Korea north of North Korea. History can be a little mind-blowing sometimes.
meh. there are plenty of "koreas" even the south was once two kingdoms. hell the tang once owned directly 75% of the current korean peninsula. the korean-chinese people in china today is pretty much hated by the south korean government, because those people are some of the most pro-china chinese citizens anywhere, they will even sing and chant for china in korean-chinese sport matches, much to the annoyance of the south korean government.
@@inkhwon what do you mean?? I only said sk has a daddy it has to answer to so Russia cannot make these kind of major deals without the daddy saying yes also. The daddy is of course the us. And I provided evidence, with the us pressuring sk to limit cooperation with china and demanding Samsung not fill voids left by micron, so complies even though Samsung had publicly stated they didn't want to and have protested against us demands of giving up it's data to the us government, yet at the end of the day they still do whatever the us says. What part of what I said there isn't true?
Just have joint custody with a 4 month rotation of ownership of Noktundo. Jan - Apr is North Korea, May - Aug is Russia and Sept - Dec is South Korea's turn.

@@yin6287 Korea is nothing in front of Russia China North Korea They are just a vassal state of USA still too much arrogant people live in Korea. I hope there is a nuclear strike on Seoul and Busan.
If this is really a contentious issue for South Korea, I have to wonder why the very first course of action isn't negotiating "Russia, Can we buy this exact plot of land from you for X money?" If it's not particularly valuable to Russia, then I'm sure there IS a price that would be acceptable. That price might be exceedingly expensive, but if SK wanted the land because its important to them (and not just because they "might" get it for free, which objectively speaking IS probably the actual reason, not to be a Korea-hater) then that transaction should theoretically still be favorable to both sides.
yes, everything has a price, and Russia has sold territories more than once But then it will be necessary to simultaneously buy out the territory from both North Korea and China, i.e. cajole them.

@@crusaderforchrist8430 I mean, it's already very hard enough to reunite Korea do to the legacy of The Cold War. But a contested claim on one of North Korea's neighbors? North Korea would HATE see South Korea blocking a neighbor who had resolved a dispute for a long time ago
I am Russian. I have lots of South Korean very good friends for years. Neither me nor them ever heard about this problem. Please, be more responsible with your work. And do not try to make artificial problems out of nothing.
As a Russian living in the region, it seems to me that you are exaggerating on this point. Despite the sanctions, the Russians and South Koreans get along just fine. First of all, Japan is not disputing all of the Kurils, but only the southern part. And when I was on Iturup, I didn't notice any desire among the residents to become part of Japan. So I think that all the disputes in our region are greatly exaggerated. It seems to me that such a notion as historical territory cannot be the basis for redrawing maps, as it would bring blood and suffering to people living now, not to those who lived once. Besides, Japan has no historical justification for these territories, since Japan was an empire like Russia, and Russia simply managed to be the first to join the Kurils.
Exaggerated? Wake up ! Japanese people has deep desire to bring back Kuril islands because island is crucial point to limit Russian navy and offensive capability. Japanese people are quite ignorant with many issues but when it comes to Kuril islands everyone aware of it
First of all, Thank you for your amazing video. Im Korean. And we don't need that island that much. South Korea have good relationship with Russia. And i don't think it is necessary to risk national security for that dead land. Probably Russia wants peace and good relationship with South Korea as well. We already have Chinese communists. No more enemy!

It'll become an issue possibly, after Korean reunification. But for now, Korea and Russia see eye-to-eye on other territorial issues. They support each other in terms of Russia's possession of the Kurile Islands and Korea's possession of the Dokdo Islands. Both are supportive with regards to Fukushima's radioactive waste disposal. Before Korea turns into a US neocon pawn against Russia, even after reunification, it has other more over-riding territorial claims on Tsushima against Japan and southern Manchuria against China. It'll need Russia's help on both fronts. Both Russia and Korea are not particularly trustful of Japan or China's intentions in the medium or long-term.
@@deanfirnatine7814 Hello, neocon dimwit! Or maybe you're just illiterate. Before you think Korea is going to go against Russia, it has an axe to grind against Japan. Then possibly China, depending on how it handles the situation. Russia is way on the bottom of the bucket list of priorities.
Arent the Korean dynasty's capitals been in north korea ? Even by claims it will go to North Korea. This like ignoring NorthKorea Main quest and hitting side quest
I would like to point out that the name of your map is incorrect. 250 years ago it was called Sea of Korea, not Sea of Japan. Internationally. After Japan forcibly annexed Korea in 1910, it was changed to Sea of Japan, and it continues to this day. It is now referred to as the East Sea, but the reason for such a neutral name is because it is not a Japanese sea in the first place. Historically, it has always been Korea's sea. Not only Nokdundo Island, but most of Vladivostok was an area where Koreans lived from the middle to the end of the Joseon Dynasty under the name of Maritime Province. After it was forcibly annexed by Japan, it was used as a place for many anti-Japanese independence fighters to avoid Japanese influence, strengthen their power, and foster resistance. It was a place that helped. Later, the Soviet government forcibly relocated the Koreans there and sent them to the wastelands of Central Asia to farm the land. So now, Koreans who have lost their nationality, called 'Goryeoins', are living in various parts of Central Asia and Russia, speaking Russian.
Germany had a similar situation where the Eastern Bloc country ceded territories to the USSR (technically Poland, but since it also ceded to the USSR it was a Soviet net gain), but nothing ever came of it as the West German government realized that it was de facto lost and abandoned its claims over it as part of its reconciliation policies. I don't think the situation is any different here.

It’s Russian land cause one : it’s already been given to Russia by North Korea two : just cause you’ve owned territory it dosent mean you can take it back third: since it stopped becoming a island naturally and since technically they lost the territory to China, it’s really just Russian land (Also if you disagree then noctundo is Chinese land or you agree with the Chinese reason for invading Taiwan{it’s for historical claim}) (Just because the current Russian regime is being imperialist over former land dosent negate that this land actually “belongs” to them {also no real life person has every said “lol” since 2013})
Yes. Now please go tell that to Russia because all those things apply to Ukraine. (Except the island though, but what has that got to do with anything)
@@okayunekomata Yes, 日本海is the standard name of that area in Chinese map. We don’t use the Korean “East Sea”, because there is another East Sea near Shanghai and Taiwan
8:00 "For Korea its value almost entire derives from it's symbolic character." Oh, no, here we go again. I guess that Russia thought the same about Ukraine. Also there are plenty symbolic valued territories which symbolism is shared between different parties. I don't think that all of those parties should go to into conflict because of some "symbolic" values, it's a symbol after all, it's only valued when people agree on it, so why not creating your own symbol. May be K-pop? Anyway, the North Korea as a symbolic territory should be the top priority for the South Korea.
You had me in the first half and lost me with the last sentence. The problem with both Korea's is that because it's a civil war, both nations have legal claims to the other side and every nation who fought for their Korea knows this. Paektu Mountain is a classic example of this, China had no choice but to have talks with BOTH Korea's on where the border runs on the mountain and fortunate for China, they got both Korean's to agree on the same set of lines which is rare. I agree to a degree that South Korea has to worry about North Korea first however it in order to have legal claim, they cannot do exactly what Pakistan and India has when Jammu and Kashmir was invaded by Pakistan to which Jammu and Kashmir went to India for military help and it to this day has been leading to who actually owns what because of the situation it was in. USSR technically created this problem by just assuming North Korea's view was good enough, I give credit to China for being a bit wiser. Because if North Korea ever gets annexed by the South, anyone with a brain will know that North Korean treaties are now pointless and would be stupid to assume the South would enforce them.

Something that was not mentioned but I think is even more important if the cession happened would be the effect on North Korea. For defectors trying to escape, they either have to cross the DMZ (which is full of mines, wild animals, and North Korean defenses), go though China and cross though the Gobi Desert into Mongolia, or travel south through China all the way to southeast Asia without speaking Chinese. However, if they are caught by China or Russia they are deported and imprisoned. If South Korea controlled Noktundo, it would provide an easy place for defectors to escape to, and therefore would be a MASSIVE headache for Pyongyang to contain. Though very unlikely, a relatively safe and easy freedom from such an oppressive regime could suddenly send millions of defectors (as well as the troops inevitably sent to stop them) streaming together over the border, and lead to the potential collapse of North Korea.

This kind of reminds me of Königsberg/Kaliningrad, an area with cultural significance to one country that Russia wants, although Kaliningrad's whole thing is settled.
Yeah Germany has renounce all claims to that exclave. One of the big reasons why they don't want it back is because while the area does have important cultural history to it, the place itself is no longer German.
you are greatly mistaken if you think that for Russia, East Prussia does not play a role. This is a huge cultural and historical layer.

So i hope in one day we will be able to cross our border with one step! ❤💙

Really interesting video. Nokdundo (녹둔도) is not in the media much, as much as Dokdo (독도), but it does as you say, have a significant part in Korean history as part of the great admiral Yi Sun-Shin's early military career.
Korean history books are not credible. South Korea used to be a subsidiary of China. In modern times, it was a subsidiary of Japan. It is now a subsidiary of the United States. South Korea is a deformed country. South Koreans are also deformed
Which is interesting, given that Noktundo being rightfully part of Korea is pretty much indisputable, and it's much more historically important than Dokdo. Though the latter is a lot more valuable in the modern era, and South Korea is already in actual possession of it rather than needing to ask another nation to give it back.

Imagine thinking you're smart because you watched some history videos
In 2005 there was a demarcation of Russian-Chinese border, when control over a couple of islands on the Amur river with total area of 337 square kilometers was passed from Russia to China. The reason that was stated - to settle all border disagreements and to improve relations with China.
So I wouldn't say that passing control over such a small "island" is out of the question, but not in the current situation certainly.
Edit: since I keep getting replies about it - the phrase "not in current political situation" also includes the existence of two Koreas.
the problem lies within the 2020 "changes" to Russian constitution, which make it unlawful to give away any territory. unless these changes are revoked (and there's a good case for that in case any reformist/anti-Putin faction takes power, because 2020 "vote" (it should've been a referendum btw) is pretty much a sham, not even counting voter fraud) the current Russian government can just raise their hands and say "no can do, look at our constitution"
Giving it to SK would be problematic and create a diplomatic crisis with NK
Well,those islands were litteral pain in the ass due to changes in the course of the river. There have even been border conflicts in 50-s and later.
And half of them rigth now sunk. Happened before,they will re-emmerge later.
Also as long as South Korea remains a staunch US ally, that will never happen since it will mean US troops potentially being placed there. Just like how Russia has closed down any further negotiations with Japan over the Kuril Islands, due to Japan's foreign policy being simply an extension of US foreign policy.

By the same logic Germany can ask both Poland and Russia to return all the land to Kaliningrad with the city itself to them as it was historically great German land and city.
Furthermore, Russia (even under sanctions) is still a powerful military and political force. Add to that the North Korean agreement that the land is now Russian and you get quite the impossible situation.

The territory is extremely insignificant if South Korea abandons the alliance with the United States
And we will start negotiations with China and Russia, and make a U-turn in its favor.
This will instantly lead to a breakthrough in relations, and then this territory can even be transferred free of charge or even connect both Koreas.
This will affect the standard of living, and the economy is very strong, yes.
But choosing in favor, giving up freedom, for the sake of the strength of the nation, this is what great nations do.
75 million United Korea, I think it will be a very serious country.
And then it will be possible to claim not only revenge for the massacre of Koreans from Japan, or put up with the rejection of the Japanese islands.
And already claim the annexation of Japan.
That's not 100% correct. Our law says that exceptions are possible in case of delimitation or demarcation of the border with a neighborhood countries. So, it is not strictly forbidden to cede some land if the goverment wants to do it. The quote in Russian:
Действия (за исключением делимитации, демаркации, редемаркации государственной границы Российской Федерации с сопредельными государствами), направленные на отчуждение части территории Российской Федерации, а также призывы к таким действиям не допускаются.
Korea could claim vastly more land than that on a historical basis. Korea had control of a considerable portion of the area North of the Yalu River at several points in time.
That's why China is doing that historical revisionist project to erase ancient Korean history in Manchuria including Koguryeo. Because they can only think in the way they themselves think: that we Koreans will somehow try to claim that land, but Koreans are not cr4zy nor do we have interest or power to actually take over Chinese Northeast. CCP has more political reasons to do that historical revisionism mainly: in case North Korea collapses and possibly get absorbed by South Korea. They need every justification to control the North due to US army presence in the South, which will want to take part in whatever happens in the North. Its a hairy situation that not many outside Korea and Chinese top knows.
If this ever happened I think we would get a situation similar to the West German embassy in Vienna in the late 80’s. So many North Koreans would swim over to the island and claim asylum in the south.
Probably would
If Russia wanted to mess with North and South Korea, selling the territory to South Korea could be an amusing way to mess with North and South Korea. North Korea would flip out if they suddenly had South Korea to the north of them.

If this is really a contentious issue for South Korea, I have to wonder why the very first course of action isn't negotiating "Russia, Can we buy this exact plot of land from you for X money?" If it's not particularly valuable to Russia, then I'm sure there IS a price that would be acceptable. That price might be exceedingly expensive, but if SK wanted the land because its important to them (and not just because they "might" get it for free, which objectively speaking IS probably the actual reason, not to be a Korea-hater) then that transaction should theoretically still be favorable to both sides.
yes, everything has a price, and Russia has sold territories more than once
But then it will be necessary to simultaneously buy out the territory from both North Korea and China, i.e. cajole them.
China owes money to Korea for giving this land away to Russia.
In the first place, Korea and China have never denied the sovereignty of Russia's Primorye region.

As a Russian living in the region, it seems to me that you are exaggerating on this point. Despite the sanctions, the Russians and South Koreans get along just fine. First of all, Japan is not disputing all of the Kurils, but only the southern part. And when I was on Iturup, I didn't notice any desire among the residents to become part of Japan. So I think that all the disputes in our region are greatly exaggerated. It seems to me that such a notion as historical territory cannot be the basis for redrawing maps, as it would bring blood and suffering to people living now, not to those who lived once. Besides, Japan has no historical justification for these territories, since Japan was an empire like Russia, and Russia simply managed to be the first to join the Kurils.

It'll become an issue possibly, after Korean reunification. But for now, Korea and Russia see eye-to-eye on other territorial issues. They support each other in terms of Russia's possession of the Kurile Islands and Korea's possession of the Dokdo Islands. Both are supportive with regards to Fukushima's radioactive waste disposal. Before Korea turns into a US neocon pawn against Russia, even after reunification, it has other more over-riding territorial claims on Tsushima against Japan and southern Manchuria against China. It'll need Russia's help on both fronts. Both Russia and Korea are not particularly trustful of Japan or China's intentions in the medium or long-term.

I would like to point out that the name of your map is incorrect. 250 years ago it was called Sea of Korea, not Sea of Japan. Internationally. After Japan forcibly annexed Korea in 1910, it was changed to Sea of Japan, and it continues to this day. It is now referred to as the East Sea, but the reason for such a neutral name is because it is not a Japanese sea in the first place. Historically, it has always been Korea's sea.
Not only Nokdundo Island, but most of Vladivostok was an area where Koreans lived from the middle to the end of the Joseon Dynasty under the name of Maritime Province. After it was forcibly annexed by Japan, it was used as a place for many anti-Japanese independence fighters to avoid Japanese influence, strengthen their power, and foster resistance. It was a place that helped. Later, the Soviet government forcibly relocated the Koreans there and sent them to the wastelands of Central Asia to farm the land. So now, Koreans who have lost their nationality, called 'Goryeoins', are living in various parts of Central Asia and Russia, speaking Russian.
Meanwhile China: This was forever mine.

Germany had a similar situation where the Eastern Bloc country ceded territories to the USSR (technically Poland, but since it also ceded to the USSR it was a Soviet net gain), but nothing ever came of it as the West German government realized that it was de facto lost and abandoned its claims over it as part of its reconciliation policies. I don't think the situation is any different here.
이순신 장군 어쩌고 하면서 저걸 왜 모르냐 하는데... 간도를 비롯해 한때 한민족이 영위했던 모든 영토를 수복하자는 이야기인가? 어차피 북한이랑 통일이라도 하면 모를까. 그 이전에 남한이 저 영토 가지고 러시아랑 싸울 일 없음. 독도나 잘 지키자구.

4:19 LOL! "And Scammers" then a bunch of "Buy My NFT"' people show up, thats so true.
It’s Russian land cause one : it’s already been given to Russia by North Korea two : just cause you’ve owned territory it dosent mean you can take it back third: since it stopped becoming a island naturally and since technically they lost the territory to China, it’s really just Russian land
(Also if you disagree then noctundo is Chinese land or you agree with the Chinese reason for invading Taiwan{it’s for historical claim})
(Just because the current Russian regime is being imperialist over former land dosent negate that this land actually “belongs” to them {also no real life person has every said “lol” since 2013})
Yes. Now please go tell that to Russia because all those things apply to Ukraine.
(Except the island though, but what has that got to do with anything)
@@雷-t3j Ukraine which killed Russian people for the past 8 years doesn't deserve any land at all.
Also the fact that they never had a treaty for the civil war so they gona invade either way.
Looking at what Russia is doing now, Russia doesn't seem to think so lol
Russia only gotten the land since 1860. The land historically belongs to Korea.
I couldn’t pay attention after 1:54 because I kept hearing Sam O’nella’s intro 😂
As a Chinese, the Noktundo is a pain which we lost the way to the Japan sea. Even though it is not far walking to.
@@Goddammitthey could claim the lands north of noktundo if Russia collapses though.

8:00 "For Korea its value almost entire derives from it's symbolic character." Oh, no, here we go again. I guess that Russia thought the same about Ukraine. Also there are plenty symbolic valued territories which symbolism is shared between different parties. I don't think that all of those parties should go to into conflict because of some "symbolic" values, it's a symbol after all, it's only valued when people agree on it, so why not creating your own symbol. May be K-pop? Anyway, the North Korea as a symbolic territory should be the top priority for the South Korea.
You had me in the first half and lost me with the last sentence. The problem with both Korea's is that because it's a civil war, both nations have legal claims to the other side and every nation who fought for their Korea knows this. Paektu Mountain is a classic example of this, China had no choice but to have talks with BOTH Korea's on where the border runs on the mountain and fortunate for China, they got both Korean's to agree on the same set of lines which is rare. I agree to a degree that South Korea has to worry about North Korea first however it in order to have legal claim, they cannot do exactly what Pakistan and India has when Jammu and Kashmir was invaded by Pakistan to which Jammu and Kashmir went to India for military help and it to this day has been leading to who actually owns what because of the situation it was in. USSR technically created this problem by just assuming North Korea's view was good enough, I give credit to China for being a bit wiser. Because if North Korea ever gets annexed by the South, anyone with a brain will know that North Korean treaties are now pointless and would be stupid to assume the South would enforce them.
Get in line, Korea.
Koreans dont want no piece of Russia
This even sounds like some misinformation to me :)
Do you Koreans feel intimidated of Russia? They're a major power after all. Are you tentative of hostility with them?
@@delinquente1444 No hostility toward Russia. The two countries used to even be decent trade partners, before the war.
I'm Korean and never heard of this at all. We want Russian women not Russian land.
Russia will be one of the most important geopolitical strategic important partners for S. Korea in the Multipolar world.
As a Korean I frankly have never heard of anyone talk about Noktundo, but thanks for letting me know about korean history

Not much of a dispute. Most koreans don't even know about this. Don't blow this out of proportion.
녹둔도 영상을 한국유튜브가 아니라 외국유튜브에서 볼 줄은 몰랐네요. 사실 녹둔도는 영토로써의 가치 보다는 한국인들의 이순신에 대한 마음이 더 크기 때문에 그냥 녹둔도 자체를 이순신기념공원으로 만들어도 별 문제 없을 겁니다.

Something that was not mentioned but I think is even more important if the cession happened would be the effect on North Korea. For defectors trying to escape, they either have to cross the DMZ (which is full of mines, wild animals, and North Korean defenses), go though China and cross though the Gobi Desert into Mongolia, or travel south through China all the way to southeast Asia without speaking Chinese. However, if they are caught by China or Russia they are deported and imprisoned.
If South Korea controlled Noktundo, it would provide an easy place for defectors to escape to, and therefore would be a MASSIVE headache for Pyongyang to contain. Though very unlikely, a relatively safe and easy freedom from such an oppressive regime could suddenly send millions of defectors (as well as the troops inevitably sent to stop them) streaming together over the border, and lead to the potential collapse of North Korea.
녹둔도를 다뤄 준 채널에 감사합니다. 녹둔도 뿐 아니라 간도의 일부도 힘으로 러시아가 청나라로부터 뺏은 땅일 뿐이고 녹둔도의 실질적 주인인 조선의 의사와 무관하게 진행된 역사적 사건의 하나일 뿐이다! 그 논리와 상황처럼 원하면 힘을 길러 다시 뺐으면 그만이다! 한국이 그 땅을 다시찾을 역사적 당위성과 근거는 넘친다.다만 힘이 미치지 못할뿐이다.

If the water course changes, I would have thought the border stayed the same in law. Where I live there is a big river that seperates two provinces, and there are little pockets of the other province on the wrong side of the river, and it’s because the course of the river changed but it’s borders didn’t
This kind of reminds me of Königsberg/Kaliningrad, an area with cultural significance to one country that Russia wants, although Kaliningrad's whole thing is settled.
Yeah Germany has renounce all claims to that exclave. One of the big reasons why they don't want it back is because while the area does have important cultural history to it, the place itself is no longer German.
you are greatly mistaken if you think that for Russia, East Prussia does not play a role.
This is a huge cultural and historical layer.
And one of the most shameful victories of the Russian Empire under Emperor Paul III
Who, after the seizure of territories and a 7-year war, gave the entire completely occupied territory back to the local king, whom he admired
@@ApersonIguess-rb6fu True. The area is more trouble than it's worth. But strategically having a Russian enclave so close by is not a good idea. Maybe even Poland could buy it.
@@ApersonIguess-rb6fuyeah, and there are not many cultural places left anymore (cause of the Soviets). Kaliningrad/Konigsberg right now is similar to average Russian city.
Russia had offered it back to current Lithuania which was but they didn’t want the expense of the country. This was back in 60s when kalingrad was more burdensome than strategic out post. Poland and lithounia were part of Russian satellite states. When a Cold War suddenly became warmer kalingrad took on new strategic importance. It’s on allied Atlantic command planning list. And is most fortified piece of land in world. It’s a no fly zone with its three tiered anti air system and the Particulary s550 discovers stealth air craft. They have nuclear weapeansxpointed st every European capital should something hit kalingrad why nonone in a rush to attack Russia. From Lisbon Madrid to London Paris and Berlin all are reachable in two minutes. No one in a rush to endcupnlookingblikecukrsine. They been through this previously.
