There is a prerequisite to knowing the origin from Mr.
There are people who look only at his name and reason that he is of Peninsular descent. Typically, clans with names such as Kaneko are said to be of peninsula descent, but this is correct and not correct.
Baekje people who came into exile during the Heian period
Takano Shingasa, a descendant of the Baekje royal family, was the mother of Emperor Kanmu during the era when many Baekje people fled to Japan after losing the Battle of Hakusonko. The Taira clan descended from Emperor Kanmu and called themselves Taira, and the Kaneko clan is said to descend from the Kanmu Taira clan. If that is the case, then if Mr. Kaneko is from the peninsula, then is the current Emperor also a peninsula citizen?
The purpose is to attack inside Japan?
In other words, it is necessary to know that in order to construct such ridiculous logic, the people of the peninsula have taken up this story many times and made it known to the Japanese people. They enjoy using exclusionary and anti-Korean sentiments to attack everyone on the peninsula. They consider people who have come to Japan to be nothing more than traitors.
A history of thousands of years of assimilation
This means that Japan accepted a large number of refugees in the latter half of the ７th century. These people have been assimilated into Japan for over a thousand years and have established families, so they do not have Peninsular surnames but Japanese surnames. If we go back to the Jomon period, many immigrants had already immigrated to Japan, and some of the words became ingrained in the Japanese language.
Peninsular people who migrated after the annexation
This is a completely different issue, as the Kim surname, which means "zainichi" and was given as a Korean name by people on the peninsula who came to Japan to work during the Japanese colonial period, is a completely different issue, and it is a story from at least １９１０ after the annexation. . This is Kim as a Korean surname. Zainichi does not naturalize and his nationality is Peninsular.
During the Japanese colonial era, people wanted Japanese names.
Koreans say they were robbed of their names during the Japanese occupation, but they had to apply. In fact, when people went to work in Manchuria, the people of the peninsula, who were vassals of the Qing Dynasty, wanted Japanese names because they would be bullied or because it would be easier to do business. In this case, they wanted a Japanese surname rather than a Korean surname, so in many cases they had a common surname that was no different from a Japanese surname.
Read it together
A blatant lie that they were forced to change their names - Korean peninsula wanted a Japanese name.
Abolition of family register system and class system
Korean family register
System considering Korean customs
Diffusion of school education system
Remarks by then Minister of State Seisuke Okuno
Korean tribe spread in Manchuria
Manchukuo, which celebrated the harmony of the five tribes
The family register system was introduced during the Japanese colonial period.During the Joseon Dynasty of the Yi Dynasty, even lowly people who did not have a surname and were not recognized as human beings were given surnames and registered as they did not need to write their status. As a result, the class system will be abolished. The details listed in the family register on the Korean Peninsula are as follows.
Koseki adopted in Korea
Regular address
Previous head of household
Relationship with head of household
Father's first and last name
Mother's first and last name
Relationship of head of household
Honkan of the head of the household
Name and last name of head of household
Date of birth of head of household
Mother - The information is the same as the head of the household is the same as the head of the household
Wife - details are the same as for head of household
Relatives such as descendants - Information to be filled out is the same as for the head of household.
Same spouse - Information to be filled out is the same as for the head of family register
7. honkan is a name representing a clan unique to the Korean Peninsula, and this name was maintained. Seven items are missing from Japan's family register. The principle of non-marriage with the same surname was maintained as a system unique to the Korean Peninsula. The son-in-law adoption system was introduced following Japan. Changes were made to allow female heads of household registration. The reason behind the name change is that the Korean Peninsula believed in Confucianism, so the husband and wife had different surnames. This was an attempt to create a Japanese-style surname to represent the family, and it was application system. This is explained in the image posted. Rather than depriving people of their Korean names, they gave surnames to people who didn't have them and abolished the need to list people's identities. And it's not compulsory in the first place.
By abolishing the class system, children were able to attend school without distinction of status. The purpose of introducing the school education system was to create an educational environment for all children. The female enrollment rate in primary education increased from 6.3% in 1911 to 33.1% in 1941.
When Hiromu Nonaka criticized Aso's remark at the Liberal Democratic Party's general meeting (remarks that the name change was requested by Koreans), Seisuke Okuno, who was present at the meeting, said, ``Nonaka-kun, you may not know this because you are young, but Aso...'' What you say is 100% correct.It was difficult to do business if we kept our Korean name.There were many complaints like that, so we decided to change our name to Mr. So.The stamp was given by a Home Affairs bureaucrat. It's me''.
Many ethnic Koreans still live in the Manchurian region of the time, but northern Korea was unsuitable for agriculture and was subject to repeated floods and droughts. As Japan's influence expanded, many Koreans moved to Manchuria in search of farmland. They wanted a Japanese name because they would be bullied by the Manchurians if they said they were Korean. If you are Japanese, you can have a big face.
Manchukuo is a Japanese puppet state whose emperor is Aixinjuoro Puyi, the last emperor of the Qing dynasty. Many Japanese people also immigrated at that time. The founding idea of Manchukuo was harmony of the five tribes of the Japanese, Han Chinese, Koreans, Manchurians, and Mongolians. In other words, these five tribes lived together in this area.

Japan is a maritime nation that knows everything about the sea - there is nothing we can learn from China and South Korea.
The reason foreigners who have eaten sushi in Japan say that Japanese sushi is different is not just the skill of the sushi chefs or the freshness of the fish. Japan's fishing industry is not just about collecting fish. Depending on the characteristics of the fish, the fish are caught during the season when they are at their fattest or when they are rich in nutrients before spawning.
Yellowtail is caught in various places in Japan, but it is said that the yellowtail caught in the area of Himi in Toyama Prefecture is the highest in Japan, and the reason for this is that melted snow from the Tateyama Mountain Range covers most of the areas where humans live. Because the yellowtail is nurtured in the mineral-rich seawater that flows into Himi Bay without passing through the water, it becomes a delicious yellowtail that is incomparable to any other. Japan's fishing industry has been carried out based on careful consideration of the fishing grounds, even the river water that flows from the mountains, and the knowledge of the temperature and temperature that changes depending on the seasonal flow of ocean currents.
Looking at the reactions of China and South Korea regarding the Fukushima treated water issue, it appears that although both countries have nuclear power plants, they do not have the engineers to develop the fundamentals. They probably purchased equipment from overseas, installed it, learned how to operate it, and then started generating electricity. Even if we say that we are building a nuclear power plant in our own country, we are not talking about the basic parts, we are doing things like minor changes in a car, but we are not talking about the actual radioactive materials, what is contained in the cooling water, etc. doesn't seem to know.
People are crying out that their country's fishing industry will suffer catastrophic damage, but Japan is one of the leading environmental conservation countries among developed countries and knows everything about fish ecology, ocean currents, and seasonal changes. It is safe to say that there is nothing to learn from China and South Korea. Then, the release into the ocean was started in collaboration with an international organization.
For the next 30 years, China and South Korea will live in fear of radioactivity, but this is not a problem that Japan perceives. Japan can only properly overcome the unprecedented nuclear power plant accident, release treated water, and continue its life as a maritime nation that catches delicious fish as before.
A celebration of shadows, a blend of Japanese and Western Japan.The continent abolished writing and destroyed its past.A completely different approach to history.
Japanese culture and shadow worship
Beautiful Japanese lacquerware in the dim light
Japanese aimed for balance and harmony
What was done on the continent was the denial of the past
Kanji abolished in Korea
The introduction of simplified Chinese makes it difficult to read the past
If you can't read past documents, you can't read history
Learn ancient Japanese and Chinese texts
A continent that burns the past and creates history
Japan's imperial family continued to exist
When I think about Japanese culture, I sometimes think of Junichiro Tanizaki's ``In Praise of Shadows.'' He remembers that during his junior high school Japanese class, he encountered some difficult sentences and had trouble understanding them. He talked about how you can rediscover the wonders of Japanese culture by learning about the background in which that culture was born.
Japanese lacquerware is based on black, and Japanese lacquerware was created in an era without electricity to create a beautiful appearance on a dimly lit dining table lit by candles. It was explained that.
White plates and glass cups became prized, perhaps because black dishes didn't look good in the light of a light bulb. However, if you eat on Japanese tableware in the dim darkness of candlelight, you will notice something beautiful about it.
To put it simply, in Japan there is a term called fusion of Japanese and Western styles. During the Meiji and Taisho eras, a large amount of Western culture flowed into Japan, but the Japanese strived to balance and harmonize with Japan's ancient culture. This is inheritance based on compatibility and harmony.
Yukichi Fukuzawa described Western culture as being like an epidemic. He preached that resisting these things would not prevent them from becoming infected, so we needed to think in terms of accepting them.
Japan sought compatibility and harmony not only in vessels and cultural customs, but also in the letters and documents that conveyed them.
On the other hand, what happened on the continent seems to be different. What is China's Cultural Revolution? In introducing socialism and communism, it was a movement to destroy the historical Chinese culture that they were proud of, and they actually destroyed cultural properties and slaughtered the people who had protected them.
What about in Korea? After becoming an independent country after the war, in 1948, it was decided that official documents should be written in Hangul under the Hangul Special Law, and in 1970, the abolition of Chinese characters was declared, and Chinese characters began to disappear from textbooks one after another. It seems that there is no problem with using Hangul as the national script, but by abolishing Hanja, it became impossible to read past documents. Efforts to abolish writing are incomprehensible to Japanese people.
The same meaning applies to simplified characters (current Chinese characters that have been simplified and symbolized), which were introduced during China's Cultural Revolution. By replacing Traditional Chinese (old Chinese characters) with simplified Chinese, people who received subsequent schooling were unable to read documents written in Traditional Chinese in the past.
Currently, traditional Chinese characters are used in Japan, Taiwan, and Hong Kong. This was because he wanted to be influenced by the Cultural Revolution.
Particularly in South Korea, historical perceptions change so freely that one major reason can be said to be the inability to approach past documents.
Documents from the Japanese colonial period and even earlier were written in Chinese characters, and modern Koreans are unable to read any of them. You probably don't even want to read it. Does it mean that history does not already exist in documents?
As an Asian, this is truly deplorable and pitiful. Is it possible to foster national consciousness and culture in this way? Both of these are unthinkable in Japan.
Japan continued to utilize the writings of the past, reinforcing the sounds with hiragana called Manyogana and inventing Japanese writing.
Texts from the past also have different phrasing and adjectives, so in Japanese education, we study classical and Chinese texts and try to read past documents. This is to experience the way of thinking and cultural customs of Japanese people who lived in the past.
To begin with, the history of the continent is one in which kings kill other kings due to wars, and dynasties change. At that time, many things built by past dynasties will be destroyed, creating a structure in which a good king reigns after defeating a bad king. At that time, something called ``book burning'' is performed. Documents from the previous dynasty were burned and destroyed. The destruction and fabrication of history is not new.
The only dynasty in Japan exists outside of the imperial family, and the Japanese imperial family has been protected and maintained through all eras. The Japanese never thought of abolishing the imperial family in any social change. For this reason, we can know that Japan existed with the Emperor even during the #Imperial Era.
In other words, the continent's approach to the past and Japan's approach to the past are fundamentally different.
Japanese cuisine that brings out the taste of ingredients.Japanese unique evolution without spices.
Japanese food is said to be unique.Japanese food uses very little spice.The West colonized Asia for spices.In Western cuisine, pepper is a magic powder used to eliminate the smell of meat, and pepper is indispensable for preserved meat such as pancetta.It is said that Japan did not have access to spices because it was closed to the country at that time, but since the Meiji Restoration, there have been no dishes that use a lot of spices.South Korean food is rich in chili peppers, which came from Japan when Hideyoshi went to Korea.Soy sauce comes from China.The distinctive difference between Chinese and Japanese cuisine is that Chinese cuisine uses a lot of oil, but the Japanese don't like it.As a result, it led to the longevity of the Japanese.
The basis of Japanese cuisine is soup stock.In Japan, umami ingredients derived from seafood are historically used.Glutamic acid, the ingredient of Ajinomoto, was discovered by a Japanese, Ikeda Kikunae, and is said to have made world cuisine delicious.Glutamic acid is one of the delicious ingredients, which is also derived from the exploration of the taste and ingredients contained in Japanese ingredients.
In 1907, Ikeda Kikunae succeeded in extracting sodium L-glutamate from kelp.
In the West, the concept of soup stock includes French cuisine using consomme soup.In Italy, fish and shellfish are boiled down or fried as toppings, so you can get soup stock as a result.Boil down the ingredients in soup and you'll get the soup stock.The world-famous soups are Borscht and Tom Yum Kung.
Many foreigners say that Japanese sushi is delicious because it is fresh, but that's not the case.At high-end sushi restaurants, tuna is matured with the restaurant's technology for a reasonable period of time and sushi is made with ingredients that bring out sufficient flavor.Since there were no spices in Japan, it is the present state by pursuing technology and harmony that fully brings out the taste of the ingredients.This is one of the unique dishes in the world.
Japanese food has developed into its own style because spices did not enter Japan during the long period of isolation.
The legendary drama 'Oshin' is very popular overseas and was broadcast in 68 countries and regions | viewership rating in Egypt was 80%, and in Iran it was 90%.
Legendary drama broadcast in 68 countries and regions around the world
Singapore and Egypt record 80% viewership
90% viewer rating in Iran, chosen as the ideal woman
Also broadcast in China, but in Korea...
Oshin achieved great achievements in Cool Japan
"Oshin" was a hit not only in Japan but also in many countries overseas, and it is surprising how many countries and regions it was aired in. It was broadcast in 68 countries and regions.
"Oshin" is a hit NHK drama that aired for one year from 1983. This is the story of a young girl who leaves her home as a servant and goes through various hardships to live and succeed in the Meiji, Taisho, and Showa eras, and is a vivid depiction of life in Japan's poor rural villages at the time. Oshin was written by Sugako Hashida, and became her most famous work.
In Japan, it has recorded an astonishing average viewership rating of 52.6% and a maximum viewership rating of 62.9%, which is the highest viewership rating ever for a TV drama. Sugako Hashida has worked on countless works including "Wataru Sekai wa Oni Dake", NHK TV drama series, and taiga dramas.
The first overseas broadcast recorded an audience rating of 80% in Singapore and 80% audience rating in Egypt. When the drama begins, everyone goes home. A power outage occurred during the broadcast and the broadcast was interrupted. Angry Egyptians who cannot watch the drama storm the broadcasting station and riots ensue. In addition, large quantities of food have been sent to broadcast stations to feed poor people.
In Iran, 90% audience rating was recorded. When asked on a radio broadcast who the ideal woman is, Oshin is chosen over Supreme Leader Khomeini's daughter. This became a major problem and led to the dismissal of four people in charge of the radio station. In addition, when asked who the ideal next leader of the country would be, Oshin, who is not a Muslim, was ranked 4th .
Oshin is famous in China as Asin, and the audience rating in Beijing at the time of the broadcast was 75.9%. China was an enemy country in the past, with whom she fought a war, but when she saw Oshin, tears covered her eyes. Many say that the image of Japan has changed. It was rebroadcast in China in 2007.
As you can imagine, is unfortunately not broadcast in Korea. The 1998 Japan-Korea Joint Declaration lifted the ban on Japanese dramas and culture in South Korea, but for some reason Oshin is not being broadcast. This may be the drama that most people don't want to see because it changes the image of Japan.
Currently, various Japanese contents such as anime are exported overseas under the framework of Cool Japan, but in the 1980s, a full-length TV novel with 297 episodes was broadcast in 68 countries and regions around the world. Even today, this can be considered a great achievement.
After the end of the war, the image of Japan was hardly known overseas, and people were only aware of it as samurai, geisha, and ninja, but Japanese culture, the Japanese way of thinking, and the way of life in Oshin's time were introduced to the world. It happened.
The Korean - Urinara origin theory, which always obstructs Japan's registration of cultural properties, is due to a cultural desert that does not know the meaning of culture.
South Korea always obstructs Japanese cultural property registration
Karate originated from karate, which was introduced from China
California roll is American sushi
The Gracie family, the strongest jiu-jitsu family
South Korea infuriates Thais
Korea doesn't know the meaning of culture
Japanese washi paper was registered as a UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage in 2014. A problem arose at this time. They claimed that the paper-making method came from the Korean peninsula to Japan, so it belonged to Korea, they went around promoting Japan as a thief nation, and they carried out activities to prevent Japan from being registered as a cultural culture. .
The origin of Japanese paper dates back to China. The manufacturing method and quality of washi paper have evolved uniquely in Japan. It goes without saying that UNESCO registered Japanese washi paper in accordance with international common sense.
Karate is a Japanese martial art. The Chinese martial art was transmitted from China to Okinawa as karate, and in Japan it evolved in its own way and became a form of karate. This is a story that many Japanese people know. Conversely, karate does not exist in China. This is because China is developing Chinese martial arts.
There is a type of sushi in America called the California roll. It's a sushi roll made with avocado and mayonnaise. There are probably few Japanese people who think of that as sushi. Even if California Roll were to be registered as an intangible cultural heritage, I don't think there would be any Japanese people who would complain. I would rather support it.
Korea claims that Japanese culture originated in Korea. Other traditions such as samurai, geisha, tea ceremony, and judo are also said to have originated in Korea.
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is the practice of the Gracie family, who studied and developed Japanese Jiu-Jitsu. However, I have never seen a Japanese person claim that Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is Japanese. That belongs to the Gracie family.
South Korea infuriated Thais by claiming that Muay Thai in Thailand also originated from South Korea. Thai people are an ethnic group that historically lived in southern China, and we imagine that they are the origin of Chinese martial arts and Indian martial arts (there are no concrete records). However, Muay Thai is neither a Chinese nor an Indian martial art. Muay Thai is a Thai martial art and the national sport of Thailand.
In order for a culture to develop, it is necessary at least to have the imagination to imagine how many people, how much time and effort it took to develop it and establish it as the culture of that country.
This is a matter of understanding and respecting culture and tradition. In fact, because they lack such effort and experience, South Korea seems to easily claim that other countries' cultures are of their own origin.
When Koreans became enraged over China's claim that kimchi originated from Chinese foam cabbage, it sparked a controversy and was ridiculed by China as a sign of a cultural complex.
