Hirofumi Ito, who made the Korean Peninsula independent
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 .
MEMO At the time of the assassination, Hirofumi Ito was in an honorary position that prevented him from exerting any political influence.
Meiji ６ political change that stopped the theory of conquering Korea
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.
The mystery of the Browning gun
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.
MEMO 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.
Read it together
The mystery of Hirobumi Ito's assassination - Who was behind Ahn Jung-geun? A Browning rifle bullet that was never found. 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.
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.
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.
POINT The Browning gun used by An Si-geun was loaded with ７ shots. At the scene, １３ bullets were found.

The Nuremberg Laws were racial persecution linked to eugenic ideology - South Korea equated the Rising Sun flag with Hakenkreuz.
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.
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.
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).
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.
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.
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.
History closed due to the abolition of kanji - Korean education that does not know history and cannot read history.
In South Korea, it is said that if you don't know history, you won't be able to become a fine adult. History is one of the subjects in Japan, and many science and math students don't like history and don't study it much. At least I don't think that I can't become a fine adult.
There is a question as to whether Koreans are actually interested in history. The problem, rather than differences in historical understanding, is the method of approach. It is said that the Korean peninsula was colonized by Japan, but it is strange why we do not learn about the history of the development of the Korean peninsula. History is all about learning both sides, but in South Korea, only the story of being ruled and oppressed appears.
Who are the Japanese who introduced history, civil engineering, engineering, chemistry, medicine, and various other social infrastructures and social systems, and what kind of person is that person? Although these things remain as historical facts, they are never adopted in history and are dismissed. Would it be possible to learn history without learning that? The best approach to studying history is to look directly at the Korean Peninsula of that era and think from that perspective.
They only shout that they were ruled by Japan, but the facts that developed during that time are hidden. History education is about learning both.
What about Japanese rule in Asia? If you compare the colonial forms under Japanese rule in Taiwan, Indonesia, Malaysia, Palau, Vietnam, etc., you should be able to see the Japanese style of colonial management at the time, but it seems that South Korea does not have that perspective. There doesn't seem to be any.
Speaking of colonies, what is the difference from Western colonies? When did it start and what process did it take to spread to Asia? Even though they are called Western countries, Britain, France, and the Netherlands have different colonial management styles. The concept of history that South Korea presents to Japan is fixed and does not have a multifaceted perspective. It is a one-dimensional understanding of history that begins with Japanese rule, and since even China does not enter into it, it is not Oriental history either. Or even seen as creative history.
Materials from the Japanese colonial period are kept in Japan. Of course, it was written in the Japanese of the time. Minutes and resolutions are public documents and can be viewed by the general public. This means that the information is accessible even to Koreans who can read Japanese. In order to understand the Japanese colonial period, Korean historians should have access to it, but this is not the approach at all. So when you ask them what kind of materials their historical claims are based on, nothing comes out.
I wonder if there are any historians in Korea who can't read kanji? South Korea abolished kanji in 1970, and the generations after that were unable to read kanji. If you can't read kanji, you won't be able to read history from the Japanese colonial period or even before that.
The abolition of Chinese characters is also greatly involved in Korean historical awareness. If you can't read kanji, you won't even be able to access past documents.
Japan - Korea Treaty of Amity Treating Korea as an Independent Country The attitude of not recognizing the Emperor has not changed since this era.
Although the Japan-Korea Treaty of Amity signed in 1876 has the aspect of being an unequal treaty, it was the first treaty that made Korea an independent country, and served as the catalyst for the opening of the Joseon Dynasty. Also known as the Ganghwa Island Treaty. Although Japan and North Korea had diplomatic relations through Korean envoys during the Edo period, Korea did not receive Emperor Meiji's state letter after the Meiji Restoration.
The reason was that although they had an equal relationship with the Tokugawa, the existence of an emperor who had the Tokugawa as a vassal meant that the Korean dynasty was positioned as a lower rank, and that the emperor was in a relationship with the Tokugawa as a vassal. The reason was that he couldn't admit it. At this point, diplomatic relations between Japan and North Korea were severed.
Korea still calls the Emperor Ni-Ko. Not recognizing the title of Emperor means that nothing has changed in this historical period.
After the Ganghwa Island Incident, an armed conflict between Japan and North Korea that occurred in 1875, Japan demanded an apology and demanded that the Qing Dynasty take responsibility as its suzerain. In response, the Qing Dynasty stated, ``Although Korea is a vassal state, it has a separate ethnicity and a different political form, and the Qing Dynasty is not responsible..'' Based on this, the first clause of the Japan-Korea Treaty of Amity would state, ``Korea is recognized as an independent country and a nation with equal rights with Japan.''
Although they were vassals of the Qing Dynasty, diplomatic relations between the two countries began despite some contradictions as they were independent states. After that, after the Sino-Japanese War broke out in 1894, the Treaty of Shimonoseki was signed in 1895 stating that ``Qing China confirmed that Korea is a completely independent and autonomous country, and that any contribution or contribution from Korea that would damage its independence and independence to Qing China was prohibited.'' ``The liturgy, etc. shall be abolished forever,'' and Korea became an independent country in both name and reality. The person responsible on the Japanese side for concluding this treaty was Hirobumi Ito.
Korea has not been an independent country for hundreds of years. It was Japan that made it an independent country.
