120년전의 한국인의 생활상

Wonder what the little girl behind bars
did to get thrown in the klink?
Obviously, the pipe-smoking old teacher-
sage doesn't take any crap from his young pupils.



- Tiger Hunters in the Hills Outside of SEOUL



- Shoeing a Horse at the Blacksmith's Home, SEOUL -

In the past,
these guys were evidently kicked clear into their neighbors yard
by a horse that didn't care to get shoes nailed into its hoofs....
and there is NO WAY they will let THAT ever happen again !



- Japanese Make Sure the Koreans Know Who's in Charge !
This is Korea ca.1897-1900.
Commenter idea0853 believes it is actually September 6th, 1897.
See his comment far down below.
As a stereoview,
the first record I can find of its being published is in 1901.


The image is tragically symbolic.
A crowd of Koreans stand under the shadow of the Japanese
"Rising Sun" flag,
while their own Korean National Flag is relegated to the size
of a bath towel.

Although Korea has not yet been formally annexed to Japan,
a series of subjugating treaties backed by military force
had allowed the Japanese to "call the shots" and "run the show",
basically doing whatever they wanted with Korea and the Koreans.


I have never seen such a graphic image demonstrating the lack
of respect Japan had for any of its neighbors in the Century
leading up to WW2 -- well,
except for a pile of photographs I have that show the Japanese
Military abusing the Chinese, which a National Magazine in Tokyo
told me they could never publish in Japan.
"It is not good for Japanese Morale and the Nation of Japan
to know what happened in the past", I was told.

Of course, they did not have to tell me that,
as I was already familiar with the so-called "History Books"
approved by the Ministry of Education during my over three
decades of living there. Of course,
some of the History Books published in America for their
schools are in the pits as well.
No doubt every nation (to either a LARGE or small degree)
lives in some amount of corporate, official denial about not
only the present, but especially the past.

Comment #6 below from Korean visitor
that these are not "High Class Women"
as the title above describes them.
Instead, the commenter is sure they are really Korean "Giseang"
similar to a Japanese Geisha. Please read the comment in full below,
where exception is also taken to a claim made by another commenter.
Things suddenly get interesting... !

120년전의 한성(서울)의 모습이면 우리 세대들에게는 불과 30여년 전의 모습이라 .
어릴적만 하드라도 시골에서는 그러한 풍습과 모습들을 흔히 볼수 있었지요.
그러나 요새 젊은이들이나 어린 아이들에게는 호랑이 담배 피울때 옛 이야기들 이지요.
日帝의 占領下에 있을때라 悲慘하기가 그지 없었지요. 그때도 우리 할아버지 빨 되는 世代사람들은
왜곳불(倭毒感: 日本毒感)으로 요새 코로나19 보다 더 무섭게 不知其數로 죽어간 事實 이 있지요.
.8.15 해방후에는 6.25 전쟁으로 수 많은 사람들이 죽어간 悲慘史實을 겪었지요.
말타고 행차하는 모습,가마 타고 말 타고,옹기장수 , 장작장수, 결혼식,상투영감 멧돌.........등 등.
영화같은 장면들 잘 보았습니다. 감사합니다.

120년전의 한국인의 생활상,
그당시 넉넉지 못한 우리조상님들의 삶,
그래도 정이많고 서로 도와주고 정감이가는
그때 그시절 잊어서는 않되는 한국인의 생활상,
귀한 역사적인 120년전의 한국인의 생활상,
어느 미국인의 기록에 감사 또 감사드립니다,,,
오늘도 즐거운 "화요일" 되세요, !
