It is said that the Korean Peninsula was enslaved by Japan.
Would slaves watch movies?If they had seen it, They would no longer be a slave.If Japan had been enslaved, why japanese produce a movie for the slaves.Still,the treatment is no longer for a slave.Slaves went to the movies on holidays .Do you have a holiday?It's interesting that there was a Korean film director at that time, which means that he watched movies for many times.Why were slaves able to watch and study movies before they made them?Or did he get a job at a Japanese movie company?
POINT During the Japanese rule, the Korean Peninsula was modernized and I realized that the country was getting richer day by day.

a slave system rooted on the Korean Peninsula.The status system was abolished for the first time under Japanese rule. The slavery system is closely related to agricultural culture. In China, the area south of the line connecting the Qinglin Mountains and the Why River receives more than 1,000 mm of annual rainfall. The north side is less than 1000mm, the south side has a rice cultivation culture, and the north side has a field cultivation culture.
Because field farming was simply inefficient, slaves were in high demand. Therefore, many slaves were used in the north. People who committed crimes were turned into slaves, and they were mass-produced by turning them into slaves in exchange for debt.
Because rice cultivation was introduced from southern China, Japan became a culture of rice cultivation, and field farming was introduced to the Korean Peninsula from northern China. Slaves were bought and sold as property as labor for field crops.
He was sold to five slaves for one cow. Rice was cultivated on the southern Korean peninsula, but it was not until the late Joseon period of the Joseon Dynasty that direct seeding was used.
Between the 15th and 17th centuries, slaves accounted for 30-40% of the Joseon Dynasty population. According to Ulsan household registration data from 1609, 47% were slaves. In 1606, 64% of Sancheong people in South Gyeongsang Province were slaves. The scale of slaves was 50% in the Korean region.
The first attempt to eliminate racial discrimination internationally was a proposal made by a Japanese delegation at the Paris Conference of the League of Nations in 1919.
This was not passed due to strong opposition from the United States. The first international effort to eliminate racial discrimination was the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination, published in 1969.
Japan's slave system began in the early 10th century after the collapse of the Ritsuryo system, and the Edict to Abolish Slavery was issued in the middle of the Heian period. However, in reality, human trafficking was not eradicated, and the Edo Shogunate often issued prohibition orders in 1612, 1619, and 1683, and cracked down on it severely.
Slavery was legally abolished in China by Aixinjueluo Puyi, the last emperor of the Qing Dynasty.
The Emancipation Proclamation was issued in 1863, but it was not until the repeal of Jim Crow laws in 1964 that racial discrimination became illegal in the United States.
On the Korean peninsula, the slave and white prison systems were legally abolished with the Gabo Reform of 1894, but the actual situation did not change due to the failure of the Gashin Coup.
Kim Ok-gyun, who defected to Japan and was assassinated in Shanghai while aiming for Japanese-style modernization, argued that the feudal class system in Korean society was the root of inequality and the main cause of the country's corruption and decline.
Due to the annexation of Japan and South Korea and the introduction of the family register system, the need to list one's status on the family register was abolished. A surname was given to a slave who was not considered human and did not expect a surname. This allowed children to attend school.
The yangban groups opposed to the liberation of their status held violent demonstrations, but they were quickly put down by the Japanese government, which believed that educational opportunities should be provided to all regardless of their status.
Japan was the first country in the world to call for the elimination of racial discrimination. And slavery ended in the early 10th century.
Ahn Jung - geun didn't know Ito' His autobiography shows that Ahn did not know Ito's face.How did you know that Ito Hirobumi, who didn't even know his face, visited Halpin Station at that time on October 26, 1909?
--The last page of Ahn Jung-geun's autobiography--
First, he fired at an old man with a yellow face and a beard.
I don't know Ito's face, so if I mistake him for someone else, it's big blunder, so I fired at the most dignified person.
During the annexation of Japan and South Korea, the Korean Peninsula modernized and achieved economic growth. This is contradictory data from the South Korean government, which does not want to admit
This is the actual state of the Korean peninsula during the annexation of Japan and Korea, as published by the Korean Statistical Office.
Number of doctors: increased approximately 7 times
Number of deaths due to infectious diseases: Significant decrease
Water supply amount: increased approximately 4.8 times
Number of kindergartens: approximately doubled in 10 years
Child protection business: Increased approximately 4.3 times
Number of public elementary schools: increased approximately 7.5 times
Population: Increased approximately 1.8 times
The number of robberies has significantly decreased, etc.
During the Japanese colonial period, the Korean peninsula experienced significant economic growth and was on the path to modernization.
South Korea has complained to the international community that it was annexed by Japan, enslaved, and massacred, but its population appears to be increasing.
The period of annexation between Japan and Korea is approximately 35 years. The reasons why the population increased 1.8 times during this period include maintaining public order, improving medical care, and reducing poverty.
Public order is maintained through laws, police, and the spread of education, and medical care is achieved through the addition of medical personnel and the provision of medicines, medical equipment, and other supplies.
Reducing poverty requires increasing employment through the creation of many jobs and improving the food situation. Japan's social improvements in all of these areas resulted in population growth.
Even though this data is published by the South Korean government itself, the country as a whole is repeating completely contradictory claims.
His political career was against the assassination of Hirobumi Ito and the annexation of Japan and Korea. The Theory of Conquering Korea and the Political Change of 1896.
On October 26, 1909, Hirobumi Ito was shot dead at Harbin Station. Ito was always against the annexation of the Korean Peninsula. It was Hirobumi Ito who specified the independence of the Korean peninsula in the Sino-Japanese War peace treaty (Article 1 of the Treaty of Shimonoseki) and made the Qing government make a promise.
He retired from the position of Prime Minister in 1901. The Inspector General of Korea also retired in June 1909, and his last post was that of President of the Privy Council. Although the chairmanship was an honorary position, it was also a position in which one had to maintain neutrality and could not exert any political influence.
The chairman, who was neither the prime minister nor the governor, was assassinated.
At the time of the assassination, Hirofumi Ito was in an honorary position that prevented him from exerting any political influence.
Going back to 1873, it was Ito Hirobumi who stopped the Conquest of Korea theory that occurred in Japan. Ito was still young at the time, only 32 years old. This was said to be the 6th year of the Meiji Coup, and His Majesty the Emperor issued an imperial order to abolish the theory of conquest of Korea, leading to the resignation of half of the councilors, including Takamori Saigo, and approximately 600 soldiers and bureaucrats. Masu.
At this point, the Satsuma domain, which was a leading figure in the Meiji Restoration, disappeared from the political scene.
What is unclear is what Ahn Jung Geun's purpose was in killing Hirobumi Ito. Although it was a murder, no bullets from the Browning pistol that Ahn was carrying were found in Ito's body.
Ahn Jung-geun testified that he did not know Ito's face, and wrote clearly in his autobiography. Since Hirobumi Ito had retired from important political positions, his murder had no influence or effect on the Japanese government.
On July 6, 1909, the Katsura Cabinet decided on the ``Policy and General Guidelines for the Annexation of Korea at an Appropriate Time''. The annexation was decided before Hirobumi Ito's assassination, and Ito resigned as prime minister in 1901 because his policy of appeasement on the Korean Peninsula was criticized.
What exactly did he aim to change on the Korean peninsula? He was tried in Port Arthur and listed 15 reasons for the assassination in his statement of reasons. There are many items that are related to Ito and items that are completely unrelated. His charge is murder.
The Browning gun used by An Si-geun was loaded with 7 shots. At the scene, 13 bullets were found.
The forced labor issue is one that recognizes the annexation of Japan and South Korea as an illegal act and allows claims for compensation for forced labor.
Korean Ambassador to Japan proposes subrogation payment
Is it an unpaid wage issue or a tort issue?
Past tort disputes
There are no actual cases in which a tort has been recognized under international law
Mr. Yun Deok-min, who has been appointed as the Korean ambassador to Japan under the newly inaugurated Yun Seok-Yeong administration, seems to be proposing a plan for the South Korean government to make subrogation payments regarding the issue of conscripted labor. has two completely different points. The issues are ``unpaid wages'' and ``illegal acts.''
One is the issue of ``unpaid wages,'' which arose during discussions in the Japan-Korea Claims Agreement when Koreans moved to the Korean peninsula immediately after the war, or when Japanese companies moved from the Korean peninsula.
This was included in the 1965 agreement as post-war compensation, and the South Korean side received it, and even after that, under the Lu Moo-hyun administration, the South Korean government continued to compensate the unpaid wages of conscripted workers as included in the 1965 agreement. Going .
The current issue of conscripted labor is that the conscription itself is forced labor, which is illegal under international law, and is an anti-humanitarian act directly connected to illegal colonial rule and the waging of a war of aggression. This is a ``claim for compensation'' based on a unilateral decision made by the Supreme Court.
This is also the issue of forced to work (requisition recognized under international law) or forced labor (forced labor not recognized under international law), which was disputed when Gunkanjima was applied for as a World Heritage Site. It goes without saying that the National General Mobilization Order applies equally to all citizens and is a legal form of forced to work under international law.The use of forced to work in the registration of Gunkanjima as a UNESCO World Heritage Site also allowed the South Korean side to has also agreed.
No international military tribunal has ever been held on the Korean peninsula since the end of the war, and there has never been a single case of a war criminal on the Korean peninsula, and no one has been tried as a war criminal. There is no fact that the annexation of Japan and South Korea is illegal, nor is there a single fact that the forced recruitment related to recruitment has been recognized as illegal under international law.
In other words, the key point in the current issue of forced labor is that the South Korean Supreme Court ruled that it was an illegal act without any basis or reference to international law. In this sense, Yoon Deok-min uses the expression "subrogated payment," but it seems quite strange. This is because the illegality of conscription and the annexation of Japan and South Korea itself does not exist.
