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.
Emperor Sunzong's imperial admonitions and the truth about the annexation of Japan and Korea.A life spent playing billiards as a hobby and listening to the gramophone at night.
In 1909, the movement for the annexation of Korea and Japan became stronger, and Prime Minister Lee Wan-yong, with the support of pro-Japanese groups such as Iljin-kai, proceeded to discuss the annexation of Korea with the Japanese government. On August 22nd, the Japan-Korea Annexation Treaty was signed.
On August 29th, the treaty came into effect with the approval of the emperors of both countries, and the Korean Empire collapsed and came under the control of the Japanese Governor-General of Korea. The following is an imperial admonition issued by Emperor Sunjong, the last emperor of the Joseon Dynasty, to the Korean Peninsula, and was also published in newspapers.
Imperial admonition of Emperor Sunjong of the Korean EmpireI have done a tremendous amount of work and have striven for the Restoration ordinance from my accession to the present day. The road ahead is still steep, the country is weakened, and exhaustion is everywhere, leaving us at a loss. This situation cannot be brought to an end. Rather, we should entrust them with great responsibilities and obtain perfect methods and innovative achievements. For this reason, I have personally decided to transfer the right to govern Korea to His Majesty the Emperor of Japan, a neighboring country, to solidify peace in the East and ensure the life and safety of the Korean people. The people should deeply understand the state of the country and the times, work without confusion, submit to the new civilized government of the Japanese Empire, and enjoy its happiness. I have never forgotten the people. It was born out of the true intention of saving and making use of the people, so please understand this well.August 29, 1910
After the annexation, Sunjong (Lee Ben) lived in Changdeokgung Palace in Gyeongseong-fu, was established as a king, and was called ``King Yi.'' Before the annexation, he was so weak both mentally and physically that he was unable to walk without the support of his attendants, but by this time he was able to walk and began to respond cheerfully. Masatake Terauchi said that this may be because he was ``freed from the pain of national troubles.''
After his abdication, Sumjong lived a graceful life
``Li Wang'' was very nervous, and he checked his own clock to wake up, take a bath, and go to bed on time. He played his hobby of billiards from 2pm to 4pm on weekdays and listened to the gramophone at night.
Also, like his father Gojong, who became King Yi Tae, he had an excellent memory, and it is said that he never forgot the names of the people he had an audience with. He loved the French cuisine of Kaneyoshi Yoshikawa, the first head chef of the Imperial Hotel, and ate it almost every day.
In June 1917, he visited Japan and had an audience with Emperor Taisho, who had visited Korea 10 years earlier. In November, a fire destroyed most of Changdeokgung Palace, and they moved to the remaining building called Rakuseonjae, but it was too small.
Lee Wan-yong considered moving to Deoksugung Palace, where King Lee lived, but when Lee heard this, Lee reprimanded him and said, ``Don't move, it's Changdeok Palace given to you by His Majesty the Emperor.'' After that, he lived in Nakseongjae for two years until the restoration of Changdeokgung Palace was completed.
It is believed that Shirosuke Gondo, the administrative official of the King of Yi, believed that the rituals of the King of Lee would be preserved by the title of ``Changdeokgung''.
Korea claims that they were forced to annex Japan and Korea, but no matter how you look at Sunjong's imperial admonitions and his subsequent life and behavior, it doesn't seem that way.
Ahn Jung - geun Jyushichi - Chiba Jyushichi-Chiba was born in Saruhira, Kurikoma-cho, Miyagi Prefecture, and was a 27-year-old young man who served as a guard for Ahn Jung-geun in Lushun Prison.Chiba was deeply moved by Ahn Jung-geun's earnest desire for peace in the East and national independence in the face of the death penalty.Five minutes before the execution, Ahn Jung-geun wrote a letter to Chiba.Chiba, the "main duty of soldiers dedicated to their country," secretly carried his remains letter back to his hometown when he returned home, and his bereaved families kept them away from his eyes.
On the 100th anniversary of Ahn Jung-geun's birth and 70th anniversary of his death in 1979, the bereaved family of Chiba presented the calligraphy to the Tokyo Institute of Korean Studies.It is now enshrined as a national treasure in the Ahn Jung-geun Memorial Hall.The monument was built in Chiba's hometown in hopes of friendship between Japan and South Korea, and a stone monument was built next to Chiba's grave.
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.
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.
