Professor Seo Kyung-deok criticizes the Rising Sun flag
In South Korea, a professor named Seo Kyung-duk claimed that the Rising Sun flag was the same as the Nazi Hakenkreuz, and every time he sent an email to its maker just because he used a pattern similar to the Rising Sun flag. They are conducting an anti-Japan movement in the name of correcting historical perceptions. Although it is sometimes featured in the news in Japan, the Hakenkreuz was originally the party flag of the Nazi Party, and the reason why it was made into the national flag means that the flag was abolished when the Nazi Party was disbanded, so from this background. The background is completely different. Although the Rising Sun flag is the flag of a party, it does not represent a particular ideological group, but is interpreted as an expression of Japanese culture's belief in the sun.
Are the Nazis and Japan the same?
South Korea claims that it was invaded by Japan and that the Rising Sun flag is a symbol of Japanese militarism, but then it is necessary to compare the reality of Jewish rule under the Nazis with the actual treatment of Korean peninsula people during the annexation of Japan and Korea. would need to. This is because South Korea claims that it was in the same situation as the Jews. Take the Nuremberg Laws as an example, in the sense that if it meant repression by the state, there would be a legal system.
Nuremberg Laws and Eugenics Thoughts
The Nuremberg Laws are anti-Semitic laws enacted by the Nazis in １９３５. Jews living in Germany were not considered citizens of the Empire and were prohibited from marrying or having sex outside of marriage with "Germans or their blood relatives." These acts are considered ``racial misconduct,'' and if discovered, they are subject to criminal penalties. The Law for the Protection of the Genetic Health of the German Peoples required all prospective marriage partners to obtain a certificate of compatibility for marriage from public health authorities. Germany did not allow Jews to participate in the １９３６ Olympic Games in Berlin. This is based on the Nazis' eugenic ideology based on Aryan supremacy, and the swastika on the Nazi party flag is depicted as a symbol of the Aryan race. In other words, the Nazis' massacre of Jews was racial persecution based on this eugenic ideology, and as a result, it turned into a campaign of ethnic annihilation (genocide).
Japan-Korea annexation liberated slaves
The period of Japan's annexation of Korea was completely different, with Koreans on the peninsula being granted citizenship as Japanese and following the same laws. They were given the right to vote, were free to socialize and marry, and used the same public facilities and schools. Son Gee-young, who is from the Korean peninsula, participated in the Olympics as a representative and won a gold medal in the marathon. This competition was the １９３６ Berlin Games, in which Jews were prohibited from participating. Japan liberated the Korean peninsula from its status as a vassal state of the Qing Dynasty, liberated slaves, who accounted for ４０% of the population, and made them equal citizens. If you compare the Nazis with Japan, the opposite is true.

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.
Myeong-dong in Seoul is Meiji Town, which was created by the Japanese. Many Korean-language movies and entertainment were shown at Meijiza.
Myeong-dong is a representative downtown area and tourist destination in South Korea, but it was originally developed as Meiji Town during the Japanese colonial era. There are many Japanese residents in this area, and it is said to be the Ginza of the Korean Peninsula.In the 1930s, it became a fierce battleground with five department stores, including Mitsukoshi Department Store's Keijo branch, and was also a ``symbol of modernization'' on the peninsula. . Meiji-za Theater was opened in Keijo Prefecture, and many movies and plays were shown there.
The people of the Korean peninsula witnessed modernization and began to live a cultured life under Japanese rule.
On April 24, 1937, Seongbong Eigagaku and Shinko Cinema co-produced the first Korean-language talkie, ``Nagne'' (Japanese The exhibition title ``Journey'' is on display at the same museum.
The Japanese version was shown at the same theater, but the Korean version was shown at Yubikan in Funai on the same day. It also functioned as a screening hall for films produced by Korean film companies, and on August 6, 1940, the film "Tuition (Korean version)" (directed by Choi In-gyu), produced by the Korea Film Association, was opened in February 1941. On the 19th, the movie ``Volunteers'' (directed by Yasu Yukage) produced by Toa Eigasha was shown at the same theater.
During the Japanese colonial period, there was nothing on the Korean peninsula. It is clear that modernization under Japanese rule has greatly changed the lives of people on the Korean Peninsula. The town, where people lived in thatched houses and crammed down narrow streets, has now become a place where they can enjoy Korean-language movies made by directors from their own country. It is said that Korea was confiscated and enslaved by Japan, but it is quite the opposite.
The Korean peninsula was a class society dominated by yangban, and in the late Joseon period, the ratio of slaves reached half in some regions. Japan abolished the class system and freed slaves.
Syngman Rhee disliked Japan and rewrote history; repeated purges to make the current government a "better government".
After the war, the thing that the South Korean government hated most was the phrase, ``The Japanese era was better.'' In fact, the February 28 Incident occurred in Taiwan, causing pro-Japanese groups to riot, and former President Syngman Rhee must have been alarmed after hearing about the incident. 2.28 Incident occurred in 1947, and the Republic of Korea was founded in 1948. Martial law was imposed in Taiwan for 38 years.
Immediately after the founding of the country, pro-Japanese groups were expelled. Just because they were nostalgic for the Japanese rule, they were treated as political prisoners, like communists, and were arrested and imprisoned. In just two years since the founding of the country, the number of arrests has exceeded the number of people arrested during the 35 years of Japanese rule.
Syngman Rhee, the first president of the Republic of Korea, did not actually know anything about Japanese rule, as he spent most of the time abroad. However, he hated Japan. During the time when Syngman Rhee was in exile in the United States, Joseon was even advertised as an ``ideal oriental nation'' before Japanese rule.
Although Japanese rule had ended in Taiwan, the Kuomintang army led by Chiang Kai-shek arrived there, and their politics were terrible. Even though Japanese rule has ended in South Korea, there is no guarantee that the country will be able to be run successfully.
Since the people who were involved in the management of the country during the Japanese colonial era were expelled one after another as remnants of the Japanese Empire, a group of amateurs with no political experience were left in charge of political administration. In addition, many purges and massacres of communists have been carried out due to concerns that they may collude with North Korea and aim to overthrow the country.
For the Republic of Korea, which was established as a military regime, those who could pose a threat to the management of the country were those who were pro-Japanese and communists. While they were hysterically eliminated, anti-Japanese language was also used to deflect criticism of the government's mismanagement, such as the Bodo League Incident, the Jeju April 3rd Incident, and the National Defense Force Incident. /red#.
Bodo League Incident A massacre that took place at a facility that re-educated communists and their families.
Jeju Island April 3 Incident A massacre was carried out in response to a riot that occurred on Jeju Island in South Korea, which is under the control of the United States Army Headquarters Military Government Agency.
National Defense Force Incident In January 1951, during the Korean War, executives of South Korea's National Defense Force Headquarters stole military supplies, food, and rice supplied to the National Defense Force. Embezzled. It is said that over 90,000 Korean soldiers starved to death due to embezzlement.
Past history has also been rewritten. Since Syngman Rhee himself had no knowledge of the Japanese colonial period, it could be said that it was easy for him to rewrite history.
The historical view that the Korean peninsula was exploited and enslaved during the Japanese colonial period creates an imaginary "better government" in which even if domestic politics does not go well after the founding of Korea, it will be much better than the Japanese colonial period. I created it .
In order to make that view of history into social norms, even affirming Japanese rule would become a political prisoner. The most problematic thing is that such conventional wisdom and education are still being inherited today.
Myeong - dong Art Theater was built during the annexation of Korea and Japan.Many Koreans don't know that the name of the time was Meiji - za.
Myeongdong Art Theater is Meiji-za located in Meiji-cho.Meiji-cho became Myeong-dong, and many movies and plays were released in Meiji-za.On April 24, 1937, the first Korean-language talkie "Nagne" (Korean version) co-directed by Lee Kyu-hwan (Korean version) and Suzuki Shigekichi (Japanese version) was released at the museum.The Japanese version was shown at the museum, but the Korean version was released at the Yumi Museum in the prefecture.It also serves as a movie theater for Korean film companies, and on August 6, 1940, the Korea Film Association (directed by Choi In-kyu) and the Dong-A Film Company (directed by Ahn Yu-young) were released at the theater.
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?
During the Japanese rule, the Korean Peninsula was modernized and I realized that the country was getting richer day by day.
Who is Syngman Rhee? - The first anti - Japanese president who knows nothing about the Japanese colonial period - No connection to the March 1 independence movement
Is Syngman Rhee a former pro-Japanese reformist?
Where did independence gate come from?
Syngman Rhee does not know about the Japanese colonial era
Anti-Japanese government established as a US puppet government
There are many strange things about Syngman Rhee from Japan. Upon investigation, it appears that he was also a founding member of Seo Jae-bi's Independent Association. Speaking of Seo Jae-bi, he was a central figure in establishing the Seoul Independence Gate after the Sino-Japanese War, and was a pro-Japanese faction who started the Gakshin Coup with Kim Ok-gyun. Kim Ok-gyun defected to Japan and became friends with Yukichi Fukuzawa and others, and was assassinated in Shanghai by an assassin sent by Queen Min.
So when did independence gate change to independence gate from Japan? Independence Gate was established by Seo Jae-bi and the Independence Association to celebrate the independence of the Korean peninsula after the Sino-Japanese War, but Koreans still firmly believe that it is an independent gate from Japan.
In 1897, he was imprisoned for distributing leaflets demanding Gojong's abdication, and after being released from prison in 1904, he lived in the United States until 1919, and was not involved in the March First Independence Movement. Although he established a provisional government in Shanghai in response to the momentum of the March 1st independence movement, he was ousted due to factional conflict and moved to Hawaii after just one year. In other words, he was not on the Korean peninsula from 1904 until the end of the war in 1945. He lives in America, which means he has never experienced Japanese rule.
Syngman Rhee's postwar administration of the Korean peninsula can be considered to have been truly administered from an American perspective. It is completely blank on topics such as the annexation of Japan and Korea and the modernization of the Korean peninsula. He may have even been observing the Russo-Japanese War from an American perspective. His policies were linked to those of GHQ, and must have been completely linked to anti-Japanese sentiment in the United States. In any case, there is no doubt that the foundations of the anti-Japanese structure were built during the Syngman Rhee era and continue to exist today.
