What Japan DOESN'T Want You To Know About Their Korean Invasion

- In 1894-5 Japan defeated China in the First Sino-Japanese War. With that victory the Japanese had hoped that Korea, a territory that had been giving tribute to China for centuries, would fall under it's control. It didn't, because Imperial Russia had military and economic interests in Korea that it was willing to go to war to defend. So, in 1904-1905, Japan and Russia went to war, partly over the question of who would be the dominant power in Korea. To the shock of almost everyone except the Japanese, Russia was defeated, and in the Treaty of Portsmouth which ended the war and which won American president Theodore Roosevelt the Nobel Peace Prize for his role in sponsoring and hammering out the treaty, Japan was recognized as having control over Korea, though no one asked the Koreans about it.
The Japanese “control” of Korea fell a little short of outright conquest, however, and by 1910, the Japanese had managed to put themselves in an economic, political and military position that made Korea an occupied Japanese colony.
Korea from 1910-WWII
As we've said before on this channel, we've got nothing against the Japanese people or government of today, or since 1945, but it's important to know that there are parts of Japanese history that are downplayed or even completely ignored in Japanese textbooks, and that's not right. The United States government has played a role in this too, as you know from watching our other videos. After WWII, the USA, while dominating Japan, was still wary of alienating its people, for it needed Japan as an outpost against the Soviet Union and Communist China in Asia, and so the history of the Japanese occupation of Korea is little known outside of the Korean peninsula and China.

Not only to Korean but also to Chinese and Indonesia ...
But those countries love Japan more than Korea
Korea lost the entire country for 36 years. Japan held onto portions of those other countries for very limited time. Like a few years.
我是中国人，我喜欢世界上所有国家，除了日本，不要被日本表面的微笑所欺骗，要记得南京大屠杀@@kangSeoJJin
Nawax000 how Indonesia get colonies is not that cruel or any ASEAN that get colonies by japanese are not having that bad experience. And watch your Brain mtfk
My country was one of the first victims of Japan.
As a Japanese living outside of Japan. We need to do better. Our japanese education system is corrupt.
如果日本可以真正繼承中華正統，實現東亞共主，入主中華成為中華皇帝後帶領中華文明以偉大的姿態屹立在東亞，那麼中國人是不會對日本有那麼大的仇恨的，來自中國
I'm from Okinawa. I know we were mistreated by both the US and Japan in the past. I understand the plight of Okinawans. But I also know not all Japanese today are ignorant. It's a interest of mine so I also learned some things from my grandpa. Operations Room is another good resource for pacific war battles
I love all honourable homogeneous Japanese
i know only system in Japan.
Where is the best do u think?
Every country is the same
It’s crazy how real history never gets taught or recognized. Thank you for taking your time to make these videos.
Seeing some one bring to light the atrocities committed by Japan is really refreshing. So many online these days seem to treat Japan like its never done anything wrong in it's entire existence. But are more than happy to blame the U.S. for everything wrong in the world. It seemed like you even had to clarify you werent out to malign the Japanese, for even stating historical events. To me, that just shows how bad this discourse has gotten. Thanks for the video.
A girl at work who was a English teacher in Japan (native Japanese) who immigrated to the US worked with me and I was talking about WW2 with another co worker and we were talking about how the nukes ended the war. She made her way from across the office to tell us to both STFU and that Americans are disgusting and they get away with murder and rape in Japan and to this day continue to occupy it. Me, being a history buff, told her, oh, like the Japanese did to China and Korea and the Philippines? Rape, murder, pillage?!?
She accused me of sexual harassment to try to get me terminated and after an internal investigation found me innocent she resigned 😂
Just FYI, I had no idea of the turn of events and what would happen but it was a very tense week of work but I’m glad that channels like this discuss the atrocities of all war regardless of the country responsible.
The world would be a much better place without America
America often refers to itself as the worlds policeman. More like murdering bully
America does not get involved in countries that have nothing they want. Like Rwanda the former Yugoslavia. But Iran Kuwait OIL. In like flinn
Vietnam atrocities over looked by Colin Powell nuclear fallout experiments on the marshal islands. If Russia put nukes on Cuban soil like nato wants to in Ukraine America would be up in Armes America has surrounded China and argues China wants to invade Ta 6:59 iwan what like America has never done such a thing !!!!!!
America and nato forced putins hand. And now dumb Ukraine will be paying America and Europe for decades for all the arms supplies they have had and who got rich supplying those arms ???????
Most blame the British. The irony is that Americans attack h British more than anyone. The nasty news reports and hate online when the Queen died were astonishing. Considering American history I could not believe Americans were mocking and attacking everything about Britain when we are meant to be allies.
I've gone from living in American culture to hating them. The arrogance and hatred towards Britain have reached a point that it is impossible to see them as anything but enemies of our people and culture.
Many people think that Asians are polite and respectful.
That's a devilish disguise.
The more they can get your trust, the more information they have to use.
This Is for Italy too tho, idk why ppl doesn't think about the atrocities Italy committed in it's history
In college i had to write a report about Korea.
I checked two books out of the library. One by a Korean, one by a Japonese.
You wouldn't have realized they were about the same country. 😢
I suggest you check one written by Chinese to compare and find the truth
@@linderoes7832 or a Russian book? Or a book written from the Mongolian point of view?
I'm pretty sure Koreans have a good idea of their own history.
@@Laura-LaFauve China has participated in the war after Korea asked for help.The war is called “Helping Korea fight against Japan of WanLi era”in China.There are also records in Chinese historical books
@@linderoes7832 your second answer was more informative. Thank you.
@@linderoes7832 Chinese records are the worst if you want accurate historical facts. All of them are fabricated.. it best to read Korean hisotrical books since they are the most accurate.
Japan still does not feel sorry for Korea, but instead holds anti-Korean protests and anti-Korean books are sold in such huge numbers that they are bestsellers.
You Guys' inferiority complex towards Japan is real. They spread nonsense rumors such as that during the Edo period, white mixed race was recommended as a national policy. Disgusting people who impose the white complex that Koreans have on Japanese people and slander Japan with made-up stories.
In Japan they still use Rising sun war flag which was used during WW2 when Japanese army slaughter and invaded many Asian countries. The flag looks like sunshine image. The flag has same meaning with Nazi's Hakenkreuz but the Rising sun flag is still used everywhere world wide because of the lack of history education. I am so curious how western people react if Germany insists Hakenkreuz is just a design and uses that flag everywhere! To many Asians except Japanese, Rising sun flag is equal with Hakenkreuz!
They should teach this in Japan. They won't though.

나는 한국인 고등학생이고 부디 이 댓글을 유튜브 번연기능이 제대로 번역해주길 바랍니다.
최근 우리 한국과 일본간의 사이는
여러 문화교류를 함으로서 많이 가까워졌다고 생각합니다.
하지만 그것은 그뿐입니다. 역사를 부정하고 잊는 민족에게 미래란 없다고 배웠습니다.
최근에 유튜브에서 한 영상을 보았습니다.
그영상에는 일본의 한 정치인이 일제강점기 당시
성착취피해자인 위안부의 동상인 "소녀상"을 조롱하는 내용이 담겨있었습니다.
"위안부" 간단히 말해 전쟁당시 일본군이 성적욕구를 해소하기 위한 목적으로 한국여성들을 강제납치하여 성적인 행위를 강요받은자들을 말합니다.
끔찍하게도 그중엔 너무 어리고 연약한 여학생들이 다수를 차지하고있습니다.
그 끔찍한 일을 그대로 겪고, 아직까지 그 사건을 생생히 기억하는 위안부 피해자들중 일부가 아직 살아있음에도 불구하고 말입니다.
제가 봤다고한 일본 정치인이 소녀상을 조롱하는 영상의 내용을 설명하자면,
차마 눈뜨고는 볼수없는 비인간적인 행위를 마치 개그적 요소처럼 퍼포먼스하고 이를 녹화했습니다.
그들은 그 성착취피해자인 소녀들을 매춘부라고 일컬었습니다.
소녀상 모습을한 풍선에 펌프를 이용하여 바람을 넣는 모습을 통해 성행위를 연상시키는 듯한 퍼포먼스까지 하며 영상속 그들은 비웃었습니다. 감히.
그런자가 일본의 정치인이고 그를 지지하는 일본이 많다는 사실에 충격을 받았습니다.
부끄러운 역사가 존재할수있습니다.
하지만 그것을 인정하지 않을뿐더러 심지어 범법적인 행위를 당한 피해자들을 조롱하는것은 그나라의 수준이 낮다는것을 보여주는것이라 생각합니다.
아직 제대로된 사과를 받지못한 위안부 피해자들이 언젠가 꼭 제대로된 "진심이 담긴" 사과를 받을 수 있기를 바랍니다.
Thanks for this. My father was working in Korea in the 70's all I heard from him was that they HATE the Japanese, based on what they did in the past, but I was never told what that past was. Being the 70s you had to go to a library to maybe find that stuff out. Being like 11 at the time I never got around to finding out. I can now tick that checkbox off my list.
So then tell me what was the Korean Original Language? All these are just Sad Tragic Stories... ComfortEnough?
Is the one they are speaking today Not Korean? A nationalevelBPD LoL
Korea and Japan are rivals so sure and hated each other just as England and France
The United States military killed way more Koreans in their indiscriminate bombing during the Korean War.

It’s refreshing to see the histories of non-European nations being covered. Thank you.
Never ask a woman her age, a man his salary or a Japanese person what they did in Mainland Asia.
East Asia actually. There are some Asian countries that are more closer to the Middle East nations
Well, they also did some crazy things in South East Asia, this doesn't change my love for modern japanese culture
They also literally ate Indians specifically...when supplies ran low...
The sad truth is that Japan still hides their history. Thank you for bringing up this topic.
the sad truth is that china and korea still dont know the real enemy in asia.
They aren't alone there.
Now Japan must protect the Pacific Ocean from radioactive contaminated water from nuclear power plants. Japan claims that the water is safe, so you can use the net as agricultural water in Japan.
There are a lot of reserchers about this in Japan.
That is why people can know about this.
Just only JPN gov. is't following.
@matuiyo2000 If hukusima water safe then Japanese use for yourselves on the land. Please don't throw in the sea.
This is the Korean Century of Humiliation. Shame on the Japanese.
6:45 Based on that definition, the British committed genocide against the Scots following the Rising of 1745. I wonder if that's taught in British schools nowadays...
As an Irishman I am struck by the many similarities between the fractious and troubled history between England and Ireland up to the present day. Like Korea a plan was put in place by the English to destroy Irish culture and language and debase Irish national self consciousness and right to self determination that almost succeeded. The one big "success" that the English had was the almost complete destruction of the Irish language so that only 50,000 people now use it as a daily language out of an island population of 7 million people.
Like Korea, Ireland is divided into a UK occupied North and an Independent South. This is one of the few remaining territorial disputes in Western Europe and was the root cause of the "troubles" in Northern Ireland.
Like the Japanese in Korea many efforts were made to systematically enslave marginalise, impoverish and get rid of the Irish as a separate ethnic and cultural entity. This had its climax in 1845-1848 with the Great Hunger which killed 1 million people on the island of Ireland and sent a further 1 million into exile in the US, UK and other English speaking countries around the world, a process that continues to this day.
Like the Korean experience Irish educational laws mandated the use of English language in public schools and attendance at such schools was enforced by law. A foreign religion was also enforced and the native Roman Catholic religion was outlawed. Severe punishments were meted out to children who spoke Irish and every effort was made to stamp out Irish culture and language until after Independence the Irish language was re-introduced back into Irish education but by then the fatal damage had been done. Ironically 500,000 Welshmen speak Welsh language so that language will survive. The question of the survival of Irish is very much still open.
My parents are from Vietnam, and when I visit Vietnam, there was a night where the elders was telling us stories about the Japanese invented Vietnam. They were slaughter a lot of villagers. One of the elders was a child at that time and he saved his own life by hiding in the bush. One of the Japanese came up to the bush and relieved his blader on top of the kid's head.
The Japanese did way more worse things to the Chinese
Like experiment Their bodies.
@@fredbigornia1814 You know he means "Invaded" or "Invasion of" are you English then ?

You mean this?
The ‘forgotten’ My Lai: South Korea’s Vietnam War massacres
@@keikotunoda426 You must be Japanese, since it's usually only Japanese netizens who ALWAYS bring up the Vietnam War whenever Japanese atrocities during WW2 are mentioned.
Since you didn't learn much of history through your Japanese school system,
here's a brief history lesson to educate you :
1. Japan occupied Vietnam during WW2 from 1940 to 1945.
During that time, Japanese soldiers committed atrocities like looting resources, burning temples, slaughtering innocent civilians, and r__ing Vietnamese women.
They even tried to incite the Vietnamese against the French and the Loatians against the Vietnamese with lies and deceit (such as framing the French for the atrocities).
Their direct and indirect actions (including famine, etc.) eventually caused the deaths of about 2 million Vietnamese citizens.
Do a search on Japanese war crimes in Vietnam/French Indochina during World War 2.
2. Unlike the Japanese government, which denies and distorts history and doesn't teach the truth in the education system, the Korean government has publicly acknowledged the atrocities in the Vietnam War and repeatedly apologized to the Vietnamese government (this includes public apologies from presidents Kim Dae-Jung, Roh Moo-Hyun, and Moon Jae-in, Bishop, and other high officials), but the Vietnamese president does not accept it because they he believes it's unnecessary and that "the victors of a war should not accept apologies from the losers." Nevertheless, the Korean government is still taking steps to give compensations to Vietnam. The Seoul Central District Court recently made public announcements regarding steps to give compensations for victims.
@@keikotunoda426 Another thing : before you put trust into your own Japanese education system, remember that
you live in a country that lionized and celebrated a serial killer Issei Sagawa.
That alone shows just how twisted your society is, as well as the thinking process of its citizens.
Though Yi Sun Shin was undefeated (about 23 naval battles), it was a pyrrhic victory for Korea cuz Japan messed Korea up during the Imjin Wars on land. Japan killed something like a quarter of Korea's population, stole or destroyed historical artifacts, kidnapped artisans such that Japan went through a cultural renaissance after the war to the extent that even today Japan has a different name for the Imjin Wars, they know it as The Pottery War. They still have a mound of buried Korean noses/ears called the Mimizuka in Kyoto.
It should be noted that Japan tried diligently to exterminate Koreans not once, not twice, but thrice. Two separate invasion campaigns during the Imjin War and the third more recently in the 1900s outlined in this video. Korea, as a nation, never invaded another country. It's odd how much Japan hates Korea when Korea has never done anything to them. All 3 Japanese invasions of Korea were just an afterthought with their true goal of conquering China.

Japan fought against the Allied Forces in World War II, and since Korea was part of Japan, Koreans fought as Japanese. You said it was a prisoner of war camp, but there is no way there is a Japanese prisoner of war camp in South Korea. At that time, Korean = Japanese. You are falsely advertising, it is malicious.
Yes you can.
The word genocide was actually invented before world war2. The man who invented the word used it to describe the terrible events that happened in Armenia. At the same time he introduced the word also warns that time periods version of United Nations about Adolf and how he could bring on a genocide
As a Pole, Rafael Lemkin is still a honoured name in our country. His sympathy with the Armenians back in 1915 was the reason behind the creation of the word "genocide". It is so shocking to see Japan delivered an Armenian-style genocide on Koreans.
Admiral Yi defeated Japanese counterparty 20 times or so (not once or twice). Never lost single battle.
And he did not design the iron clad turtle ship. He just built those ships on time to protect Korean shores.
Original form of turtle ships at that time already dated back to a couple of hundred years.
He didn't even have those ships when he fought against the entire Japanese armada. He died in the battle, but just like Nelson, he defeated the invaders.

It's fiction. In reality, the Japanese army did not suffer any damage.
@@nitro2525k addressing on Admiral Yi's last battle? nah it didnt put a dent on the Japanese army. But the battle prevented them to land in time to fight the Chinese. By then it was all over.
I know that the Japan invasion was horrible. They treated the Koreans horrible, so I understand why the Koreans were against them for so long.. it seems that the younger generation doesn’t have that animosity towards them. I don’t know if that’s good or bad.. in one way it’s good because you don’t hold the present generation guilty for the past did. however, it doesn’t need to be forgotten. Forgiven, but not forgotten otherwise, it may happen again..
yes, my grandparents and my parents have hate towards japanese
Forgetfulness has always the danger or repeating the same atrocities since human nature does not change from generation to generation
Nope I’m Gen Z and the animosity Carrie’s still til this day. Until those japs apologize, my mind will be dedicated to getting them to beg for forgiveness
Except if it happens, it won't be Japan this time. It will be China. And they will probably join forces with Russia again. And Technically speaking, World War 2 has never really ended. Russia still controls land previously owned by other countries that they took over after forcing out the Germans. And while the war was going on with Japan in the east. China was still forcefully claiming land from other countries and getting away with it and still doing it to this day. Never forget China and Russia were a threat to the world before Japan and Germany, and still are after Japan and Germany.
A part of history that seems to be forgotten by most as well, during the Chinese and Russian attack on Manchuria to force out the Japanese occupation. Russian troops were given order to rape and pillage, and that is exactly what they did along with the massacre of civilians trying to flee Manchuria. And to the Russians they didn't care if they were Japanese civilians or not.
I remember hearing about Unit 731 in high school but that was it. During lessons on WW2, 90% of it was about how Nazi was bad and killed so many. While we also did learn about Japan in WW2, was how they entered the war, how did bombed Pearl Harbor, how they surrendered after two atomic bombs, and that's it. In the text books, they only mentioned Unit 731 once and that is all. Never did it go into detail of what it really is. It wasn't until college where I learned more about the atrocities that Japan committed
Unit 731 is a water supply and quarantine unit in the war zone.
The original story is "The Devil's Boredom=悪魔の飽食", a novel by Seicho Matsumoto that was published in the Japanese Communist Party newspaper.
The Japanese claims this is all fabrication and lies, a Korean fantasy.
Saw a large model of the Korean ironclad in a museum, and couldn't help but think it resembled a giant metal turtle. Considering the timeframe in which it was built it was a very impressive feat.
Was it the Korean War Museum in Seoul?
the ship is called geobukseon which just means turtle shop
@@zengance1323ship*
Oh you want some dark story.
Japan had built part of its force out of its Korean subjects during that period, which participated the war. Postwar Korea was broken in half, with government backed by Soviet Union and U.S.A. respectively. While the North Korean was based on the Korean who had fled from Japanese Korea and had fought the Japanese on the China battlefield, South Korean was based on the Korean cooperator of Japan and the Japanese Korean force.
I was surprised by the hatred of the Japanese people I found in China. I had noted the same thing among Hong Kongers but it was mild in comparison with the abject hatred towards the Japanese I found on the mainland. The denial of the Nangking massacre by many Japanese is a very sore point.

This reminded me of the Korean movie “The Admiral “ about Yi Sun Shin
In another video you guys did about imperial japan in the comments a korean wrote how their parents told never to take a dna test. Unfortunately too many sentitive things arise after a war even if you wanted to get a locals opinion on it. So it seems had japan not done harsh things korea wouldve been one country
Well Admiral Yi did not build an ironclad. He partially built it, but the turtle ship was not 100% ironclad. It had iron roof, but inner ship was made of wood. In this sense Yi designed a proto-ironclad.
The imperial Japanese navy left the army to starve in PNG. Many resorted to killing and eating Australian soldiers
I don’t Hate Japan but will never forget History
I knew several men who survived the Bataan Death March. Almost all were transported to Mukden (Japanese name for Manchuria) in an unmarked Japanese Maru (No markings that it was carrying POWs). The only reason they didn’t die was that the torpedo that hit the ship was a Mark-14 DUD! Most of them worked a slave laborers in Mukden & Korea, and a couple survived Unit 731 where most of those who went died.
The soldiers holding them where all given orders to kill them when we invaded the Japanese Home Islands. The Bombings of Hiroshima & Nagasaki combined with Emperor Hirohito’s orders not to kill the POW’s and to surrender to the allies were the only things that saved them.
We did some work for an old boy that survived the march . What a horrible thing it was .he also said the boat they were on got hit by a dud torpedoe ,and that there was this real shithead of a jap officer that stabbed many POWs in the bladder and laugh like a madman .
Just a little correction, Mukden was the capital city of Manchuria. It is now called Shenyang.
Manchuria, on the other hand was called Manchukuo by the Japanese.
So Emperor Hirohito wasn’t powerless???
ow that is why korean made their history into a drama and series to watch because japan wanted them to forget their nation and history
The japan now should not be blamed for the ww2 atrocities.
The japan now should be blamed for wanting to dump the irradiated waters from fukushima.
It was an atrocity to humanity. I'm so glad you acknowledged what happened to The Native Americans, that too was an atrocity.
I like learning history and appreciate this video. Only thin I would like to have it corrected is the flag (like China) that was used was based on current ones rather than the ancient flags during that time.
Good, thx
What China Doesn't Want You to Know About Their Tibet Invasion

Whataboutism
Towards the end of WW2 as the Japanese started to flood out of China, it was the Russians who drove them off the Korean Peninsula in an absolute blitzkreig of superior Tank battles, it was a huge defeat for the Japanese.
No not exactly. The Soviets had pushed the Japanese completely out of Russia and forced them into stagnation for the rest of WW2 when the Japanese retreated back into Manchuria where they had strategic resources since Korea is part of their main territory and their gateway to Beijing and the South China Sea. Then they started to lose most of their territories in the Pacific while the Koreans themselves were building a steady network of resistance and rebellion all over Korea. When Japan finally surrendered in 1945, they then recalled all of their territories and assets out or Korea and the Pacific, and then finally the Russians met their US allies from the North and pushed out all remnants of Japanese influence.
@@jasonlee0290 I’m a Chinese and I agree with you. The Red Army crushing the Japanese was first used to minimise the American’s efforts. The Japanese were about to surrender after the atomic bombs and the Soviets were actually trying to take advantage of that to occupy Manchuria. Mao Zedong (CCP leader, not an asshole yet) suspected that so he used everything he had to librate Manchuria first. Why does anyone believe that Stalin chose to attack the Japanese when they were vulnerable because he felt that his Chinese Communist comrades suddenly needed his help?
@ross1273 glad you mentioned that. Imperial Japan losing so steadily to both mainland rebellions late in the war along with crushing defeats in the pacific theater left a power vacuum that several world powers wanted to fill. All the writing was on the wall, Imperial Japan would fall back to their isolated island whether it be with atomic bombs, endless guerilla warfare from the Chinese and Koreans, land based invasions from the USSR or a second D-day like invasion from the US UK and Australian forces. All that was really there to fight for was who dealt the death blow and who would make out with what after their fall.
Most of the Japanese army at that time was moving to Japan to defend the Japanese mainland. Moreover, the Soviet Union and Japan at that time were allies, and Japan asked the Soviet Union to mediate the war against the United States. In other words, the Soviet Union attacked a defenseless Japan at the time, and targeted civilians (Japanese and Koreans).
@@ross1273 It was a land grab they still sit on a lot of manchuria.
I’m so happy we have social media and Google. When I was growing up, we were not taught any of this in school. Everyday I’m learning something new from channels like this. Todays generation has so much at their fingertips. You are appreciated for the work that goes into these videos 💜

Japan was very successful in playing the victim. The entire Western fell for it and only listened to and believed the Japanses side of the story. How lucky Japan has been!
lots of memes claim thatvjapan invented hello kitty, anime and city pop in order to distract the world from their horrible history lol.
japanese military killed a tons of japanese at that time too
including my grandparents
japanese military was nazi , its kinda right.but military did Qoo and took control of everything
japanese citizens were also victims of japanese military too😢

If you say that Japan is always lying and playing the victim, what does that mean? Show me a concrete example.If you don't, you're a liar.
不要被日本人的表面所欺骗
Things like this, the bataan death march, unit 731 and Nanjing give historical context that I feel people need. As well as how surrender was rare for Japanese soldiers and the fanatic defense they put up are important to understand the later bombing campaign and atom bomb attack on japan itself. Especially when you consider the fire bombing of Tokyo was more devastating than the atomic bombing of either Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
Nail on the head. Good comment.
JUST lie
There is also Sook Ching taking place at Malaya.
However, i would never justify the killing of civilians with another killing of civilians.
@@wahidpawana424 While I would normally agree, Japan was not at all what it is today. Civilians were being trained to fight in the event of an invasion, men women and children were all expected to die in the name of the emporer and considoring the casualties of previous invasions of japanese held territories it can only be assumed that more would have died in a mainland invasion. The estimated casualties where so high that most purple hearts issued in the past decades were made in preperation for the japan invasion. I genuinly am not a fan of militaries bombing civilians myself but it can only be asumed that had the emporer not ordered his country to surrender the war would have continued. Even then there was an attempted Coup to prevent the surrender from being broadcast. Another event which suprisingly few people know about. In this instance the bombs had saved more lives on both sides than would have been lost in an invasion.
Most of Unit 731's atrocities are fictional. Fictional novels serialized in the Japanese Communist Party's newspaper are the basis for the current atrocities of Unit 731.
Ngl if i get attacked in a war, loose that defending war, then yes i see why they want revenge
What do you mean? The Japanese tried to invade Korea in the Imjin war. They've always been the aggressor.
Study your history and you'll find that Korean looked to modernize through the US. But, when Japan invaded, the US was quiet and ignored the Korean government's plea. The threat was Russian and Japan would stop them.
Japan and the US had a kind of a deal where japan would get Korea and the US the Philippines.
@@jwo122 Where did you source that? I did read that Japan offered to take the Phillippines if the US didn't want it.
Korea looked to modernize through the US? Lol
Korea back then (long time) was a protectorate of China.
After the first Sino-Japanese war the Japanese freed Korea from China, making it an independent nation.
Then after the Russo-Japanese war, Korea became Japan’s protectorate country.
Japan never “invaded” to annex Korea in the first place.
@@jwo122hat I don't believe. Japan was in no position to stop the US from taking the Philippines in the 1890s, so why did the US need to trade Korea for the Philippines.

I live in the Watsonville ca area driving to the veterans center I had to turn off on Imjin Parkway in Marina on the old ft Ord. The US marine had a battle with Japanese at Imjin, that was also the same place the Koreans defeated the Japanese. Seeing the sign, I had to look up the history.

I'm not ignorant and only look at the beauty and best of any country. I can't even name a country that hasn't done ugly things. I'm also fascinated by Japanese history too....
@keikotunoda426 How about this, most of those crimes were committed by Vietnam soldiers(not denying that korean soldier did something) and unlike Japanese gov, we do acknowledge our crimes and tries to apologize every year.
13:46 "Gojong" is more accurate way of pronouncing Korean, a comment from Coreens in Busan. * Generally, you did not missed the context of Korean history when it was united under one banner. The reason why our nation fallen in the 20th century is due to 'national betrayer' who have lost their identity, desire to grasp power, sold out national scale intel to foreign politicians. Most Mega-Corporations in Korea has originated from foreign relation restoration deal in 1965 between Korea and Japan. It would be good if you take investigation on this subject and related foreign policy in East Asia. I also liked the point when there is a mention of 200,000 documents burning down by Japanese invaders while many Korean scholars today ironically deny this fact and even degrade this fact. Anyway, it was nice to see information about my state in English. Have fun!
How many times did you practice saying those names?
The background of this Seven Years' War is that the carelessness and arrogance of Joseon (Korea), which enjoyed only peace and culture for 200 years, treated Yamato (Japan) as a barbaric pirate group rather than a country. However, Yamato had a high level of tactics through clan battles for 100 years, and the 170,000 troops of Toyotomi, who unified the whole country, armed with Portuguese matchlocks and attacked Joseon. Historically, Japan has waged a surprise war without a declaration of war.The 16,000 Elite heavy cavalry that Joseon was proud of, which had suppressed the cruel northern peoples, was defeated by the Yamato Matchlock unit, and 70, 000 Joseon Army was pushed back all the way to Pyongyang. Yamato, which was a medieval feudal lord era, gained land and people if it won a war, but in Joseon, which was a centralized country, the king fled to the north, but the people and monks formed a militia and fought to the end , the Japanese army was embarrassed by the existence of the Militia.Admiral Yi Sun-sin of Joseon defeated the Japanese navy by winning all 33 naval battles despite overwhelming odds.
The basic weapons of the Joseon army were bows, spears, and swords, as well as gunpowder bombs and various cannons of different sizes..The Ming Dynasty (China) sent reinforcements to help Joseon, but instead harassed Joseon by plundering and engaging in internal communication with Japan, but helped Yi Sun sin in the final naval battle.Yamato, who did not have the technology to make pottery, Taken in hundreds of Joseon pottery craftsmen to make pottery and exported the pottery to Europe, where it received favorable reviews. Joseon was unable to recover from the aftereffects of this war for 400 years and suffered the humiliation of being annexed by Japan, which it regarded as an uncivilized island, and being ruled for 35 years. This Great War was a symbolic event in which the international status of the Korean Peninsula with 4,800 years of history was reversed by the Japanese archipelago with 1,800 years of history. 300 years later, Joseon became a reclusive country with a policy of isolation, and Japan defeated the Russian fleet through the strategy of Yi Sun-sin, the great naval admiral of the country it invaded 400 years ago, and later joined the ranks of the great powers. Yi Sun sin's the world's top 3 naval admiral and the turtle ship is an invincible Korean Item in the Age of Empires PC Games.
Not only korea, do same think in china and south east asia, what a brutal colonialism
Lmfao there’s a reason why there military is disbanded
Japan has a military, it’s actually one of the largest in the world. But it’s purely for self defense. Their constitution prevents them from sending military support to global conflicts but they very much have a military that may not be the same size as that of WW2 but still very much capable leaving damage if it decides to do so
Very much pro korean. And I appreciate it. Not easy to narrate an entirely objective narration.

Iron clad ship's aka ships with some metal in them are nothing compared to straight metal ship's like from the US civil war they where so armored they couldn't sink each other and had to make more powerful artillery to have the possibility to sink each other.
Regarding the definition of genocide by the United Nations:
The definition of genocide included the nonlethal replacement of an indigenous people group from a certain area based on religion, race, political beliefs, or language with a different people group. Interestingly, such a definition was removed from their website... which coincides with an era in which the powers that be in Europe promoted and implement the de-Eouropeanization (diversification via non-ethnic European immigrants) of European Nations such as England and Sweeden, as well as the same for other Nations such as Poland which are interested in preserving themselves and by extension Christian Europe.

THe case of a KOREAN camp follower " Kim Gun-ja" in the WW2 or the Korean War

Yet she testified before UN Special Rapporteur Radhika Coomaraswamy that she was abducted by the Japanese military. Kim Gun-ja also testified before United States House Committee on Foreign Affairs in 2007 and said she was abducted by the Japanese military.

And this is why I'm very confused on how my mom married my dad.... or even convincing his family to even agree about the marriage, my mom is American mix ((American, Native American, and a little bit of Korean)) My dad is Japanese.... might have some mix in there but not so sure yet, 😅 family tree is huge.... I have heard about this in South Korea, and I was shock when I came back with mom for the first time there to Japan. I asked my grandpa if he ever heard about this, his response was "Heard of it? I live threw it.... it was the saddest time ever, some of my friends where murder because of this stupidity." 😔 it made me sad hearing about it, and it still does to this day in my heart. Ik everywhere you go, it's not going to be perfect... but at least we try to make it happy and peaceful in our homes, that's why it makes me understand when he said about genocide... it made a lot of sense, my so called adopted mom try her best to eliminate my knowledge of my culture, language, EVERYTHING straight American. If I use my Japanese in front of her, I get beaten, straved, locked up in my room, even sometimes she will try to kill me. My adopted dad was my guardian, sadly lost him in 2018. But she wouldn't go just after me, she will go at my siblings, my adopted dad, my friends and their parents. Now ik the full truth about everything, karma is coming back at her. She could've had not done it at all, but she chose something she can't ask for forgiveness nor take back..... and it's something she needs to come to terms on her own, and so far 2/3 of my siblings plus their man believes in me. The other still in denial, but I get it. It's something we never thought she would do.... in till my second youngest husband, soon to be ex, is doing the same thing she did with my family...... kidnapping.
American and Japanese people get married a quite often.

I think if people see Japan as the Asian version of the Confederates and see the Koreans as the Asian version of the African Americans who suffered, it would be easier to contextualize the whole situation. The Japanese were insanely racist back then and don’t talk about it

Have been brushing up on the events prior to ww2 in east asia and activities of Japan prior to, during, and after the war, and wow is that enlightening compared to the next to nothing we learn in school. We basically are told “Pearl Harbor happened out of nowhere. We used our nukes, and Japan sent us anime and we had hibachi and it’s all good”. Japan was a JERK of a nation in any and every interaction with any non-Japanese, but their East Asian cultural and historical older brother and cousin REALLY get it from Japan as soon as they knew they had the ability to do such things. It’s so difficult at first to adjust your understanding of modern Japan because it feels unthinkable, esp since we’ve had such a warm relationship since, but those soldiers were filled to the tip of the head with some monstrously brutal ideology that made them very capable of the worst of human depravity. They did do a true 180 since but my god, they were so much worse than you could imagine.
After knowing the history of Europe... particularly thinking of the Spanish Armada and the multitude of wars... I'm not surprised to see that Eastern world was as bad if not a little bit worse. However, taking into consideration that the Chinese and countries they're about had a much longer history a civilization going back as far as 8,000 years they had more time to become cruel. This just adds to the probability that you will never be World Peace and we may be on the verge of a nuclear war... not because any of this is necessary but because we are apparently compulsively driven to destroy our own as long as they're outside of "our tribe."
Yup!🎉

Not recognizing their falut is a common practice in any country. Korea do not mention even a pip about what they did in Vietnam during the Vietnam killing them and leaving thousands of babies.
the vietnamese government "refused" a public apology when offered because "all was forgiven".

People uses people for their own good. Its not about a single country or religion , but about people mindset that will do anything for their own benifit and its the common people of a country who suffers the most.
As a korean, I swear this is very true. Furthermore, the Japanese special forces troops, Unit 731, tortured many Korean and Chinese people using toxic chemicals. From Japan's point of view, it was for "scientific means", while, from our point of view, it seemed like they were no different from the Nazis who slaughtered the Jews. Later, when the "Great" Empire of Japan lost World War II, they had to face the international court, though, the United States bought the japanese reports written by Unit 731 for 25 million yen, and basically forgived them all. I'd say the situation is pretty similar even now, (yet ofc it got better than 80 years ago), as the United States won't even let us koreans build our own nuclear arsenal to protect ourselves from our northern counterparts. by the time the second korean war blows up, us south koreans will all be dead because of north korea's fresh batch of chemical and nuclear weapons. The united States had played a role in forking over Korea to another nation before, and im pretty sure they'd do it again.

Hopefully Japan one day fully acknowledges for all of its past atrocities and actually teach future and the current generations about them because denying it entirely is just shameful
They paid money to Korea once under agreement that the Korean government can never mention it again. The dictator who accepted the deal is 50% hated in Korea. Japan won’t accept responsibility because they believe that deal absolves them
The real sad part is that, to admit all the past atrocities is shame to them and so they wont. That is why some of those Japanese people who are nostalgic of their imperial past would say none of that happened and it was beautiful back then till America bombed them and America should apologise for the nukes. When the reality was that if not for the nukes, they would have fought til no end.
If Japan one day magically come to a realisation to that and acknowledges for all the past atrocities and teach that in schools, then Korea and Japan prolly would become best buddies real quick. (though this didn't happen for so long ... so maybe not real quick LOL)

Japan was judged by the Allied Forces in World War II, paid reparations to the countries involved, and has apologized. Therefore, it is a solved problem. Even though 80 years have passed since the end of the war, there are countries that are demanding a permanent apology and complaining about how little reparations they received, but there are countries that lack common sense.
