2. The detailed demands for correction
(1) Fusosha
1) Subject: Imna commandery(任那日本府) |
| |
Fusosha’s textbook |
Korean’s demand for correction |
|
Japan dispatched her army to Korea across sea….. The Outpost named “Imna” from Japan was located in the southern part of Korean peninsula. |
This insistence made Japan has been already testified that it is not a historical fact approved by Korea-Japanese scholars after a long series of research more than 50 years. |
|
“Yamato” military strength was powerful enough to fight against Kokuryo Kingdom in support of Kingdoms of both Paekjae and Silla. |
Distinct fallacy; Kokuryo troop drived Japanese army(“Wae” army) out of the peninsula by Silla’s request for Kokuryo’s support.(referred to Kwanggeto epitaph) |
|
Kokuryo…….. by Japanese army’s resistance regions based on of both Paekche and Imna. |
The content is based on the premise of standing stationing of Japanese army in Korea and so it is a distinct fallacy. |
|
“Yamato” government was withdrown from “Imna” and she failed in her policy to the peninsula. |
| |
|
2) subject; The relations of three kingdoms in the late-14th century(4世紀 後半三國關係)
Fusosha’s textbook |
Korean’s demand for correction |
|
l Kokuryo gave some pressure on Paekche Kingdom and Silla Kingdom which was located on the southern parts of Korean peninsula. |
* Misconception in historical fact. In the late-4th century the relation between Kokuryo and Silla was that Kokuryo was friendly enough to support Silla kingdom. |
|
|
3) The diplomatic relations of three Kingdoms & International society in the 6th century(6世紀三國& 國際關係)
Fusosha’s textbook |
Korean’s demand for correction |
At that time Kokuryo began to be faded, and Bei-Wei(北魏) Kingdom which supported Kokuryo was withered. |
** Groundless insistence |
Silla gave a great threat against Paekche in alliance with Kokuryo. |
Plain fallacy; Silla in alliance with Paekche took a joint countermeasure against Kokuryo’s aggression toward the south. |
4) Three Kingdoms’ tribute to Japanese kingdom “Yamato”(三國朝貢說)
Fusosha’s textbook |
Korean’s demand for correction |
l Kokuryo suddenly approached to “Yamato” government ………. Paekche and Silla paid a tribute to Kingdom of “Yamato” in Japan. |
l This description based on only Nihon Shoki(日本書記) (this content has no records in the history-books of both Korean and Chinese.) l According to the results of research in history by Korea-Japanese scholars, this is commonly agreed the fact that three kingdoms are superior to Japan in the field of political & cultural aspects. |
5) Japanese pirates(倭寇. “Waegu” in Japanese)
Fusosha’s textbook |
Korean’s demand for correction |
l Many of Koreans joined the Japanese pirates called “Waegu” in history. All most of them were Chinese. |
l The explanation regarding the factor of the outbreak of Japanese pirates is omitted. l For the purpose of removal from the existing recognition in history that Waegu were all Japaneses, Fusosha described as if Koreans joined “Waegu” as well as Chinese. |
***Reference for readers; The so_called Waegu- Japanese pirates- often raided the coastal regions to plunder as well as killing Korean people.
6) the name “Chosun” Kingdom( 朝鮮國號.the old name of Korea, A.D. 1392-1910)
Fusosha’s textbook |
Korean’s demand for correction |
Koryo kingdom was overthrown by “Yi clan And “Yi clan” founded a Chosun of Lee clan.
|
Instead of the official name “Chosun”, Fusosha on purpose made use of “Yi clan Chosun” which was beloved during the period of the forcible occupation of Korea by Japanese imperialists in order to erase his dignity in history. |
7) Japanese invasion to Korea (壬辰倭亂 1592-1597)
Fusosha’s textbook |
Korean’s demand for correction |
l The title is “dispatching troops to Korea”. Hideyoshi-Japanese general(日將)- Whose mind was full of fantastic dream dispatched a large scale of troop to Korea in order to conquer & rule China “Ming明)”, and to occupy even to India , l As a result of dispatching troops, the land and people all over the country were prominently desolated. |
l It is concealed Japanese invasion by describing “dispatching troop” as if they defended against an aggressive enemy. l This is also described the cause of the invasion only for Hideyoshi’s personal dream of fancy, and his personal illusion to conquer “Ming” Kingdom of China. l This is decreased all the things that human sufferings & material damages committed by Japanese army during the war. |
8) Korean emissary to Japan(朝鮮通信使)
Korean’s demand for correction | |||||
l The Bakufu military government of Japan restored diplomatic relations with Choson (in the wake of the Hideyoshi Invasion). l Choson dispatched royal emissaries whenever a new shogun, or supreme military leader, took office. l A Japanese trading post for commercial activities with local Koreans was opened in the southern Korean port of Pusan. |
l The postwar normalization of diplomatic relations between Korea and Japan was made possible by the relentless efforts of Japan's shogun, Tokugawa Ieyasu. Such a simple description of the final result might lead to the misunderstanding of the entire process. l Korean diplomatic delegations are simply labeled as congratulatory royal emissaries, without duly describing the purpose of their visits or Japan's purpose of inviting them | ||||
9) Korea's perception of Western powers and its international status (朝鮮 西歐列强 認識& 國際的 地位)
|
10) Korea and the pre-modern international order in East Asia (前近代 東亞細亞 國際秩序& 朝鮮)
Fusosha textbook |
Korean’s demand for correction | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
l Choson (Korea) and Vietnam were both conquered by the successive Chinese dynasties, but Japan remained independent of the China-centered world order and enjoyed freedom. |
*. The nature of pre-modern relations among nations in East Asia is distorted. Recognition of new monarchs and the offering of tributes constituted a diplomatic formality between China and the smaller countries that surrounded it in pre-modern times. China never interfered with Korea's internal affairs. *Japan, in contrast to Korea, is mistakenly defined as an "independent sovereign state," omitting the fact Japan remained a part of China's tributary system until the 17th century. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11) Juxtaposing the social characteristics of Korea and Japan(日本=武家社會, 朝鮮=文官社會論)

Korean’s demand for correction | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
. Its main proponent, Takamori Saigo, volunteered to die a sacrificial death in Korea in order to provide Japan with an excuse to attack Korea. |

13) Kanghwa Island Incident(江華島 事件)
Fusosha textbook |
Korean’s demand for correction |
* A skirmish broke out between Japan and Choson off Kanghwa Island as Japanese warships took measurements, as well as conducting other activities, in a show of force without Choson's permission. |
*. It is not stated that Japanese warships intentionally provoked Choson into opening fire, not to mention who triggered the skirmish, why and how. |
14) Threat from Korea(韓半島 危脅說)
Fusosha textbook |
Korean’s demand for correction |
The Korean Peninsula is tantamount to a forearm protruding from the continent toward Japan. . If the Korean Peninsula came under control of a nation antagonistic to Japan, it could be used as a launching pad for an invasion of Japan. |
* Japan's invasion of Korea is justified as indispensable for its security through the description of Korean Peninsula as an intimidating geographical position. Likewise, both the Sino-Japanese and the Russo-Japanese wars are justified as inevitable for the cause of Japan's self-defense. |
15) Japanese government’s plans to neutralize Choson(日本政府 朝鮮中立化案)
Fusosha textbook |
Korean’s demand for correction |
Some Japanese government officials argued that Japan should request to other concerned nations that they sign a treaty to neutralize Choson and that Japan must strengthen its military to guarantee Choson's neutrality. |
Some Japanese government officials argued that Japan should request to other concerned nations that they sign a treaty to neutralize Choson and that Japan must strengthen its military to guarantee Choson's neutrality. The fact that Japan's military buildup was aimed at occupying Choson by force has been covered up. Instead, it is incorrectly stated that Japan reinforced its military to help Choson maintain its neutrality. |
16) Modernization of Choson and its relations with Japan(朝鮮近代化& 日本關係)
Fusosha textbook |
Korean’s demand for correction |
. Since Choson opened its doors to the outside world, Japan has supported the military reforms of the Korean dynasty as part of its efforts toward the modernization of Choson. It was vital to the security of Japan that Choson developed into a modern state capable of self-defense without yielding to foreign domination. |
. Japan's intention to expand its influence on Choson is covered up. It is portrayed as if Japan contributed to Korea's independence through its military assistance, which is a gross distortion of historical facts. |
17) Sino-Japanese conflict over Choson(淸日戰爭)
Korean’s demand for correction | |
* Qing China came to regard Japan as a prospective enemy for fear of losing control over Choson, which was its last potent tributary state. * In 1884, Kim Ok-kyun led a coup ... but the Qing military effectively quelled the pro-Japanese forces. |
. This is a unilateral description of confrontation between Qing and Japan over Choson. In fact, Japan considered China to be its potential enemy. |
18) Tonghak movement of farmers and the Sino-Japanese War(東學農民運動& 淸日戰爭)
Fusosha textbook |
Korean’s demand for correction |
l Peasant militias approached Hansong, the capital of Choson. l Choson asked China to send troops... Japan also dispatched its forces to Korea under an agreement with China... a military collision broke out between Japan and China, which led to the Sino-Japanese War. |
*Tonghak was a movement against the corrupt government and foreign forces, so it is inappropriate to refer to it as a "riot." It is also misleading to reduce the peasant movement to a movement of a certain religious group. *.This is an unquestionable mistake. Tonghak militias did not "approach the capital," but they only occupied the city of Chonju in the south l Japan sent its troops to Korea under a strategy to provoke a war with China. It was not a mere countermeasure to cope with China's action. |
19) Russo-Japanese War(露日戰爭)
Fusosha textbook |
Korean’s demand for correction |
l Russia constructed a military base in the northern part of Choson. l it was evident that Russia's military in the Far East would grow so powerful that Japan could hardly match it ... The (Japanese) government decided to wage a war against Russia before it was too late. l After the war ended, Russia recognized Japan'srule of Korea (Choson)... It was a momentous war that brought victory to a non-white race of people over Russia, an empire of white people with the world's largest army. The victory inspired tremendous hope for independence along the oppressed nations around the world. |
l .It was not a military base but in fact lumber camps that Russia built in northern Korea. l Although Japan instigated the war against Russia, it is erroneously stated that the war broke out because Japan felt threatened by the Russian military. l Japan's true aim was to secure hegemony over the Korean Peninsula and Manchuria. But it is deliberately covered up and the conflict is glorified as a "war between races”. l It is erroneously stated that Japan gained recognition of its domination of Choson and at the same time gave hope for independence to other oppressed nations. |
20. Forcible annexation of Choson(韓國 强制合倂)
Fusosha textbook |
Korean’s demand for correction |
l The Japanese government believed that Korea had to be annexed to guarantee Japan's security and protect the interests of Manchuria. Britain, the United States and Russia held each other in check to prevent their rivals from strengthening their influence on the Korean Peninsula. They did not oppose Japan's annexation of Korea because they believed it would help stabilize East Asia. l There were some voices within Korea accommodating Japan's annexation |
l The forcible nature of Japan's aggression and the process of annexation of Korea are covered up in this passage. Annexation is described as an act carried out with international recognition. l Descriptions of nationalist struggle by the militia and the individual patriotic activities, including the assassination of Ito Hirobumi by Ahn Jung-gun, are minimized, while a limited number of pro-Japanese Koreans are deliberately highlighted |
|
21. Development of the colonized Korea(植民地 近代化論)
Fusosha textbook |
Korean’s demand for correction |
l For the colonized Korea, Japan pushed ahead with development projects, building railroads and improving irrigation facilities. |
l The description reflects the opinion of the Japanese colonialists who insisted that Japan's development projects contributed to the modernization of Korea and benefited its people. But they were in fact designed to facilitate Japan's colonial rule and exploitation of Korea. |
22. The Great Earthquake in 1923(關東大地震) and Koreans
Fusosha textbook |
Korean’s demand for correction | ||||||||||||||||||||||
* At the time of the Great Earthquake that shook the Kanto region on Sept.1, 1923, rumors spread that Koreans and socialists were attempting to exploit the chaos to engage in subversive activities. Therefore, Japanese civilian security forces killed Koreans and Chinese. |
* The massacre by the Japanese military and police has been covered up. Despite that most of those killed were Koreans (about 7,000), the victims are lined up in the order of "socialists, Koreans and Chinese" for the purpose of playing down the sacrifice of Koreans that was the core of the incident. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
23 . Forced conscription and Japan’s assimilation into ‘the people of the emperor’. (强制動員& 皇民化 政策)

l Japanese Group who centered around traders – sometimes forced Koreans to commercial transaction and robbed them of properties. l Japanese pirates “Waegu” based as their stronghold on Cheju island and North Kyushu island. l Not only Japanese but also Koreans and Chinese joined these piracy. |
l this description is designed for the distortion & beautification for the robbery as if they worked chiefly as traders for a living and committed sometimes robbery l Cheju island of Korea is taken advantage of Cheju island of stronghold for dilution to the Japanese pirates “Waegu”. For the purpose of the removal the existing recognition in history that Waegu is Japanese They wrote purposedly that Koreans and Chinese joined this piracy. |

Koreans’ demand for correction |
l The government of Japan demanded Chosun( Korea) to establish diplomatic relation, but Chosun did not agree to this request. So the aggression to Korea took place in Japan. l Chosun which was a vassal state of China……she also rejected to have diplomatic relation with Japan. |
l Chosun’s refusal to Japan’s request(diplomatic relation) caused the fact the attitude of which Japan ignored the exisiting friendly diplomatic relation with Chosun and enforced to demand the restoration of diplomatic relation. Above explanation was not carried out at all and it attributes the reason of “aggression to Korea” to Korea. l This description has no explanation regarding the tribute relation with China at that time and Chosun is described as a vassal state of China. |
5) Kangwha incident of 1875(江華島 事件)
Kyoiku shoku(帝國書院) kyoku shipan(敎育出版) |
Koreans’ demand for correction |
l An incident which Japanese troop was bombarded in Kangwha island by Korea took place. l Korea was regarded as a vassal state of China “Qing(淸) by China. |
l this description concealed the secret intention of Japanese side to lead to Korean’s bombardment and impute the cause of Kangwha incident to Korea. l In “the treaty of friendly diplomatic relation between Korea and Japan” there is no explanation regarding the clause that “Korea is independent state” was written for the purpose of controlling China ‘Qing(淸)’. |

l The farmers who believed in Tonghak, Eastern learning, against Western learning(Catholicism) rebelled against the Government. l Japan advanced to China after she had the opportunity of ruling Korea. l Japan which detected Chinese troops to Korea dispatched her troop to Korea…. And began to fight against China. |
l This is described that it took farmers’ resistance for ‘rebellion’. In this case it is objective in words ‘resistance’ or ‘farmers movement’. l This expression ‘ruling Korea’ may give a |
l possibility of misunderstanding that Japan had dominated completely all over Korean peninsula. l This is concealed the designed detachment of Japanese troops by describing that the detachment was executed as a simple countermeasure against the dispatch of Chinese army in Korea. |
8)The forcible annexation of Korea by Japan
Nihon bunkyo(日本文敎出版) |
Koreans’ demand for correction |
l Ahn jung keun assassinated Ito Hirobumi Resident general. So, Japan annexed Korea to her and ruled as a colony. |

Koreans’ demand for correction |
l Korean young men of Volunteer to participate the war (explained with pictures) l Koreans was forced to be assimilated to the subjects of Empire in harmony with ‘ the people of the Emperor’. |
l This description may give a possibility of false image different from the facts that conceal the nature of compulsion in the volunteer system and Koreans voluntarily participated in the war. l This need to be written the detailed descriptions in the worship to Japanese shrines, and the compulsory education of Japanese education. Especially it is insufficient in the detailed description of the assimilation policy. |
