I've heard that Ito Hirobumi's assassination accelerated the annexation of Japan and South Korea, but this is clearly not the case.The reason is that in １９０１, Ito resigned as prime minister in charge of the southward movement of Russian interests.A cabinet decision on the annexation was made in June before the assassination.As a result, Ito retired as governor-general in July.Ito's assassination was on Oct. ２６, １９０９.
Ahn Jung-geun's brown gun bullet has not been found in Ito's body.Thirteen bullets were fired in the incident.The bullet victims are as follows.
Hirobumi Ito ３ shots, Yoshifumi Muroda ５ shots, Yoshikoto Nakamura ２ shots, Jiro Mori Taijirou １ shot, Toshihiko Kawakami, and Seiojiro Tanaka １ shot.
The Browning Gun is a seven-shot gun.Two French cavalry guns were found in Ito's body.Ahn Jung-geun sniped from the roof of Halpin Station and the second floor to supplement Ito's strategy when he failed to hit Ito.The trajectory of the autopsy also shows that it passes from the right shoulder to the umbilical cord.If Ahn Jung-geun did not commit the crime impulsively, it would mean who was the mastermind.
For the first reason, the theory of political strife within Japan is unlikely.This is because political settlements and procedures have already been completed in Japan.
The Russian theory is hard to believe from Russia's point of view.Ito's purpose is said to have been to conclude a trade agreement to help Russia regain its rights.I went to Halpin to see Kokothev, and Kokothev welcomed me very much.If the purpose of the war was to start between Japan and Russia, it would be wrong to assassinate Ito, who had no political power.And it is unthinkable to start another war just four years after the Russo-Japanese War ended.
There is a Lenin theory.The argument is as follows.Lenin was collecting Romanov's scandal.Russia's defeat in the Russo-Japanese War was a great opportunity for Lenin.Romanov's blunder resulted in a large number of leaflets being distributed in Russia.The assassination of the Austrian Archduke was accompanied by a bronze gun.The Browning Gun is a gun used by the Russian Army.And Lenin was raking up the Browning Gun.
The only thing in common is the Browning Gun and Romanov's crime.
Commutern's strategy is to incite society without fighting itself.It also includes war between other countries.
The Russo-Japanese War ended in １９０５, Ito's assassination in １９０９, Sarajevo in １９１４, and the Russian Revolution in １９１７.The revolution was completed during World War I.
The mastermind of Ito Hirobumi's assassination is a mystery.On the other hand, Ahn Jung-geun and Browning Guns were the only ones left.Ahn Jung-geun does not know Ito's face, so the assassination is likely to end in failure.Besides Ito, there were several other Japanese who accompanied him, as well as Russians.Snipers armed with cavalry guns were preparing to fire as planned.
Was there any need for Ahn Jung-geun to go right in front of Ito?What we can think of is getting Ahn Jung-geun's attention and sniping him from afar.Otherwise, Ahn Jung-geun and Brown Guns will be left at the scene.Ahn Jung-geun must have been utilised.

Japan organized the history of the Korean peninsula, and Korea eliminated it and created its own history.
It was Japan that organized the history of the Korean Peninsula. Until then, various documents had simply been stored in that location. Systematized from the perspective of modern history. In addition to Japanese historians such as Iwakichi Inaba, Yasukazu Suematsu, and Hidetaka Nakamura, intellectuals and cultural figures from the Korean peninsula such as Hong Hui, Lee Yong-wha, Choi Nam-seon, and Lee Byeong-yeon also participated, for a total of 41 people. Climb to the top. Japanese scholars generously taught intellectuals on the Korean Peninsula the ways of thinking and systematizing modern history.
There are 4,950 materials borrowed from visits throughout the Korean Peninsula, Japan and Manchuria, 1,623 copies of selected important items, and 3,500 used books that serve as historical sources for the text.
After the war, these historical books were created under Japanese rule, and were rejected as a colonial view of history. Instead, an ethnic view of history created by Korean Peninsulars themselves emerged and was introduced into school education. Not only historians, but also the pro-Japanese factions were ostracized from society, saying that they were trying to get rid of all the bad things they had done. This ethnic view of history has led to the unfounded history that leads to the present day.
Not only in history editing, but in all fields, modern technology and learning brought from Japan were rejected as something brought by postwar Japan. The people who were involved in these events are also ostracized as vestiges of the schedule.
In other words, there were many people who helped the development of the Korean peninsula at the time of Japan's annexation of Korea. Historiography, which was established after the war by eliminating dissenters, is far from an academic approach in the first place. Children on the Korean Peninsula today are learning a story that is a continuation of a national historical perspective that lacks objectivity.
Kim Ok - kyun and Lee Joseon Kim Ok-kyun, not Ahn Jung-geun, was the hero if you think about the world at that time.If he had defeated Lee and laid the way for modernization, he would have become a Sun Yat-sen of the Korean Peninsula.Kim Ok-kyun was assassinated in Shanghai, but Queen Min feared that the Joseon dynasty would be overthrown.
The assassination took place on March 28, 1894.The Sino-Japanese War broke out on July 25, 1894, and less than half a year later, Qing, who supported Queen Min, was defeated by Japan and the Korean Peninsula became a protectorate of Japan.The Korean Peninsula failed to shed its former dynastic state.It was impossible to modernize while taking over the old Joseon Dynasty.Far from staying, the world trend has accelerated, and the Joseon dynasty has not changed a bit.
It was Seo Jae-pil, Kim Ok-kyun's brother, who celebrated the independence of his motherland.It has nothing to do with the Joseon Dynasty or the Korean Empire.
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.
The limits of the industrial revolution and modernization on the Korean Peninsula - At the time of the annexation, the Korean Peninsula lacked everything.
In 1805, the Korean Confucian scholar Jeong Dong-yu listed sheep, wheels, and needles as things that did not exist on the Korean peninsula. The wheel refers to the technology that transforms and processes wood, and the needle refers to the precision processing of metal. At that time, there was no technology to make wheels on the Korean peninsula, so cargo was carried on the backs of oxen or carried on the shoulders or heads of people. The needle also needed to have a sharp metal tip and a hole in the back for the thread to pass through, and these items were ordered from China.
Isabel Bird, who traveled to the Korean peninsula four times in three years from 1894 to 1897, said, ``The road to Seoul was so narrow that cattle could not pass each other, and it was like a maze.'' It's just a passage," he wrote. It can be seen from this that there were no vehicles with more than two horizontal wheels.
The industrial revolution produced large machines and produced goods in large quantities. Wood processing technology and metal processing technology are essential to making industrial machinery. Distribution is then needed to transport the products to each region. Vehicles that transport raw materials and products need roads to begin with. In order to communicate work processes to workers and create manufacturing records, workers must be able to read and write. Without a monetary economy, products cannot be manufactured or traded. At that time, the Korean peninsula did not have everything necessary for the industrial revolution.
Japan introduced industrial machinery, cars, roads, school education, etc. to the Korean Peninsula. The class system was abolished, slaves were freed, and a mobile labor force was created. This gave rise to mass production, wide-area distribution, and a monetary economy in which money and goods were exchanged. This is the industrial revolution and modernization that Japan brought to the Korean Peninsula.
Kim Ok - kyun and Miyazaki Toute He also interacted with Sun Wen and Kim Ok-kyun, and in Miyazaki's book "The Dream of the 33rd Year," which supported the 1911 Revolution, he wrote about Kim Ok-kyun as follows.
------------------
The news of Kim Ok-kyun's murder surprised the whole of Japan.
The problem is that the assassination of Kim Ok-kyun by Cheong Wa Dae and North Korea caused an unexpected storm of anger throughout Japan.As a result, the war between Japan and China began to break out due to the spread of the Donghak Party's rebellion in Honam, North Korea.
Kim Ok-kyun's official funeral at Asakusa Honganji was cut off on August 1, 1954.In the meantime, the chorus of "Shoot, punish, and clean up" quickly burst into the war between Japan and China for a little over two months.
------------------
The photo was taken by a Japanese person in a newspaper article at that time.Kim Ok-kyun coudn't not achieve revolutionize himself, but his death moved the Japanese and led the Korean Peninsula to independence.
