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.

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.
Why is Taiwan so different from Korea? That's a big difference in the spirit of national foundation.difference in the oath of independence between the two countries
If you think about why Taiwan and Korea are so different, there are differences in national character, but there is no solution.The division of the Korean Peninsula was born in the Cold War structure, not in the form of socialism and democracy.It is a mysterious structure of confrontation between military dictatorship and socialism.In Taiwan, the Kuomintang, which confronts the Communist Party of China, is a one-party dictatorship, not a democracy.
In Korea, people who cooperated with Japan were purged and excluded.Pro-Japanese forces rioted in Taiwan after the eight-year-old Nihil incidents.The Kuomintang government later purged local intellectuals and communists for fear of a recurrence.I thought this would be the same, but I looked into various things to see if there was a purge of pro-Japanese forces, but I couldn't find it.
Korea and Taiwan have many things in common.After the end of World War II, Japan's founding was not a democracy that confronted socialism.South Korea is confronting North Korea and Taiwan is confronting the Communist Party of China.Both countries have become democracies.
There is a clear difference between Chiang Kai-shek's speech on August 15.The following is excerpts from the interview with Alperovitch.
Chiang Kai-shek 8.15 Speech
Our compatriots in China (Taiwan) should know that "not thinking about old evils" and "doing good to others" are the high and precious virtues of our national tradition.We have consistently stated that we do not regard the Japanese people as enemies, but only the warlords who use Japan's tyrannical and atrocious force as enemies.Today the enemy forces were defeated jointly by our allies defeated by our allies.Needless to say, we will strictly encourage them to carry out all the terms of surrender.But we must not retaliate, let alone insult innocent people.We can only treat them with mercy that they are mocked and driven by Nazi warlords so that they can escape their mistakes and sins.If you respond with violence to the atrocities committed by your enemies, and with servile humiliation to their sense of superiority, vengeance will call for vengeance and will never end.This is by no means the object of our fight for humanity.This is especially important for our fellow soldiers and civilians today.
Chiang Kai-shek, like Lee Seung-man, cited the Nazis, but his goal was completely different.This may have greatly divided the future of the two countries.
The provisional government of the Republic of Korea in the preamble to the Korean Constitution has been sworn in by the provisional government."Our justice is really superior to Japanese violence."Wake up and be the last one."
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.
The truth about the annexation of Japan and Korea - The Joseon Dynasty was unable to become independent - 15 years from the Sino-Japanese War to the annexation of Japan and Korea.
Learning about the history of a short period makes it clear
King flees less than a year after independence
Need mawashi for the return of Koso
The founding of the Korean Empire and the Russo-Japanese War
Restrict Korean sovereignty
Japan-Korea annexation
The Joseon Dynasty that lacked independence ~ The Korean Empire
If you look at the history of only 15 years from the Treaty of Shimonoseki to the annexation of Japan and Korea, you can clearly see that Japan did not violently take away the independence of the Korean Peninsula. Japan supported #independence on the Korean peninsula and ultimately gave up on it. This is the historical truth.
Treaty of Shimonoseki (April 1895): The Korean peninsula became an independent nation as a result of the peace treaty resulting from the Sino-Japanese War. Shunseimon Incident (November 1895): An incident in which pro-Russian pro-Russian leader Lee Beon-jin plotted to assassinate Prime Minister Kim Hong-ji. Roguan Banseong (February 1896): An incident in which Gojong, the head of state, fled to the Russian legation, fearing for his safety due to the conflict within Korea following the Shunshomon Incident. Less than a year after independence, they renounced their sovereignty.
Komura-Weber Agreement (May 1896): Japan and Russia jointly supervise the internal affairs of Korea, and as a condition for Gojong, who is currently in the Russian legation, to return to the palace, the number of Japanese and Russian troops to be stationed, etc. We have arranged. Yamagata-Lobanov Agreement (June 1896): Guarantee of Korean independence between Japan and Russia, promotion of financial reform in Korea, organization of modern police and military, telegraph An agreement was made to hold the line.
Establishment of the Korean Empire (1897): Gojong was able to return to Gyeongun Palace on the premise of an agreement between Japan and Russia. He changed the country's name to the Korean Empire and called himself Emperor. Although it means being on the same level as Japan and China, Japan approves of this. Earn of the Russo-Japanese War (1904): Russia's interests in the Korean Peninsula continued to expand, and the Russo-Japanese War broke out.
First Japan-Korea Treaty (1904): The Korean government appointed a person recommended by the Japanese government to serve as the Korean government's financial and diplomatic advisor. Second Japan-Korea Treaty (1905): An agreement in which Japan deprived South Korea of its diplomatic rights and established South Korea as a protectorate, including the establishment of a supervisor. The Hague Emissary Incident: (1907): An incident in which Gojong dispatched an emissary to an international conference in The Hague in the Netherlands, but was unable to meet with representatives of any country. The conference recognized Japan's jurisdiction over the Korean Peninsula.
The annexation of Japan and Korea was approved by the cabinet (July 1909): The Katsura Cabinet approved the ``Policy to carry out the annexation of Korea at an appropriate time and outline of facilities for Korea''. Assassination of Hirobumi Ito (October 1909): Hirobumi Ito was assassinated at Harbin Station. Japan-Korea annexation (August 1910): Japan and Korea were annexed by the "Treaty on Annexation of Korea."
To summarize the above trends, Japan fought the Sino-Japanese War and made the Korean Peninsula an independent nation. He even made arrangements for the head of state who had fled to the Russian legation to return to Korea, leading to the establishment of the Korean Empire, which was given the name of an empire on a par with Japan and China.
Even so, Russia's advance southward could not be stopped at all, and the conflict between pro-Russian and pro-Japanese factions in Korea continued. After the Russo-Japanese War, Japan judged that the Korean Peninsula could no longer be independently governed and began to restrict its authority. With the backing of pro-Japanese groups such as Isshinkai, Junshu concluded a treaty of annexation of Japan and Korea.
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.
