Something worth mentioning is that what the US did to Japan with forcing them to open, they also tried doing the same with Korea when it was the kingdom of Great Joseon. Specifically on the Taedong River at Pyongyang. It's called the General Sherman incident of 1866. During the period of Great Joseon control, which was then known in the West as the "Hermit Kingdom" (like how Westerners call North Korea the Hermit Kingdom today), had adopted several isolationist policies in response to Chinese and Japanese invasions. These policies remained in place during the 19th century. Determined to force the Korean government to end its isolationism, the SS General Sherman, an armed merchant schooner owned by Boston businessman W. B. Preston, made plans to travel to Korea. The crew of the General Sherman consisted of Captain Page and Chief Mate Wilson (both Americans), English supercargo George Hogarth and thirteen Asian crew-members, which included Chinese sailor and interpreter Chao Ling Feng, two pilots from Shandong and ten sailors from Beijing, Malaya and South China (said to be former soldiers in service of Henry Andres Burgevine). The General Sherman entered the Taedong with goods (stocks of cotton textiles, tinware, mirrors and glassware) purchased from Tientsin (Tianjin) in 1866. They stopped at Keupsa Gate where the crew met Koreans. The Koreans refused all trade offers, but told the crew to wait at the gate while higher government officials were contacted. The captain didn't listen, and continued heading upriver towards Pyongyang. The ship proceeded to attack anyone who tried to stop it. This was when it was decided to attack the ship. It was finally destroyed after being fought over for several days. So Koreans in Pyongyang have hated the US far longer than the Cold War, it's just the division of Korea sparked that hate again. The US-Korea Treaty between Joseon and the US, Korea's first treaty with a western nation, was signed in 1882.

yeah he’s as good as oversimplified and posts even more often than him

Hi, I'm a South Korean, and I'm very interested in both Korean and world history. It is such a shame that the modern history of Korea has been misunderstood by many, so I appreciate the effort in showing a side of the Korean War that many do not know well. However, this video has several major errors that I simply can not ignore and wish to address. For a more simple read, I'll have to oversimplify - but if anyone wants to, I can go into more depth. 1. Kim Il Sung's role in the Korean independence movement is mild at best and wasn't vital either. Kim was born in 1912 and started to play an active role in the guerrilla campaign in Manchuria after the Japanese invasion in 1931. But his only notable feat was the Battle of Pochonbo (보천보 전투). While it was a minor battle, it played a major role in Kim's rise as supreme leader of North Korea. This battle has been greatly exaggerated by Soviet & North Korean propaganda, but it is clear that the battle had, in fact, taken place and was led by Kim. But when talking about the independence movement of Korea- Kim played only a minor role. Much of his 'achievements' stated in his autobiography and in North Korean propaganda have been proven to be false. (ex. the Korean People's Revolutionary Army, Down-with Imperialism Union) I should also mention that there were more prominent factions in the Korean independence movement that this video doesn't mention that I believe should be mentioned. Those factions are: 1) The Provisional Government of the Republic of Korea (대한민국 임시정부/KPG) & the Korean Liberation Army (한국광복군/KLA) - led by Kim Gu (김구), Kim Gyu-sik (김규식) and others. The KPG was formed in 1919 after the March First Movement and is the most well-known and recognized organization of the Korean independence movement. It was supported by the nationalist government of China and cooperated with the OSS (Office of Strategic Services). The KPG attempted to gain international recognition, but in the end, never was recognized. Sygnman Rhee (이승만) was also part of the provisional government and worked in the US to gain recognition of the provisional government. The constitution of South Korea states that the Republic of Korea upholds the cause of the provisional government. 2) The Committee for the Preparation for Korean Independence (조선건국준비위원회/CPKI), which formed the People's Committees (인민위원회) - formed and led by Lyuh Woon-hyung (여운형). It was mostly dominated by left-wing political figures, but some nationalist and conservative figures cooperated with the People's Committees, but many did not due to its left-wing character. The CPKI then formed the People's Republic of Korea. It should also be noted that Cho Man-sik (조만식) did play a major role in the northern People's Committees but did not lead nationally. 3) The Korean Independence Alliance (조선독립동맹) & the Korean Volunteer Army (조선의용군) - led by Kim Tu-bong (김두봉) and others. It was organized by left-wing independence leaders and was supported by the Chinese Communist Party. The Korean Volunteer Army constituted the largest military out of all the factions. After WW2, they attempted to enter Northern Korea but were stopped by the Soviet Union. They are less well-known than the others because they cooperated with the North Korean government and were later purged by Kim Il Sung. These figures formed the Yan'an faction in North Korea. 4) The Communist Party of Korea & other communist groups - led by multiple figures but mainly Pak Hon-yong. They formed multiple secret societies and led the resistance movement at home between the 1930s and 1940s. Many were supporters of Marxism-Leninism, but other moderate and nationalists factions existed. They later formed the Workers' Party of South Korea and led guerrilla movements against the US & South Korean governments. In the North, figures like Pak hong-yong (박헌영) formed the domestic faction. They were mostly purged during and after the Korean War. 5) The Northeast Anti-Japanese United Army (동북한일연군) - The organization that Kim Il Sung was a part of and had disorganized leadership. It was created by the Chinese Communist Party as a multi-ethnic military force and had many Koreans in ranks. They fought in Manchuria against the Japanese on a small scale, and some later fled to the Soviet Union. Kim joined the 88th Separate Rifle Brigade of the Red Army, which helped him gain support from the Soviet Union. Figures like Choe Yong Gun (최용건) & Kim Chaek (김책) were part of the army and supported Kim Il Sung. They formed the Manchurian faction. Besides the Yan'an, domestic & Manchurian faction, there also existed a Soviet faction consisting of Soviet Koreans. While Soviet Koreans played an important role in the early Korean independence movement, they lost relevance after Stalin's rise to power and the deportation of about 172 thousand Koreans to Central Asia. Many more organizations existed before and during WW2, and many people fought for Korean Independence. While it is true that Kim played a role, he shouldn't outshine major figures in Korean history. Nor do I think he should be glorified, considering he is responsible for the deaths of millions of innocent Koreans and is very much responsible for almost eight decades of war. 2. The USAMGIK was not led by Douglas MacArthur. It was led by John R. Hodge. 3. The USAMGIK didn't always support Sygnman Rhee. In fact, the US supported Lyuh Woon-hyung and Kim Gyu-sik in the Left-Right Coalition Movement (좌우합작운동). The USAMGIK preferred Kim Gyu-sik to become the future leader of Korea but needed Lyuh's political support due to his massive popularity and friendship with Kim Gyu-sik. The USAMGIK was genuinely interested in cooperating with center-left and center-right figures and distanced itself from those in the far-right and far-left. When talking about the period before the Korean War, it is crucial that you talk about the Left-Right Coalition Movement. The movement formed the Left-Right Coalition Committee (좌우합작위원회), which promised land reforms, punishment of pro-Japanese officials & democratic elections. It tragically ended with the assassination of Lyuh Woon-hyung by the far-right. As a side note, while Lyuh has many connections with communist figures and organizations, Lyuh is considered center-left and a social democrat. This is due to him being also close with nationalist and conservatives too, and being willing to compromise on political issues. 4. Sygnman Rhee got more than 90% of votes in the 1948 presidential election because he was elected by the legislature, not by a popular vote. He also stood as the only candidate in the election. The reason why other candidates got votes was because they were protest votes; some lawmakers wrote the names of other politicians as a protest. The other candidates that were named both opposed a separate government in the South, so they didn't stand for the election. 5. While it is true that in some cases, the South Korean military clashed with the North Korean forces- Kim Il Sung had planned an invasion of the South as soon as the Korean People's Army was formed. He asked Stalin multiple times (and was rejected) to allow an invasion of the South. It was only when the conditions were right, Did Stalin agree. The blame for the war lies on the shoulders of Kim Il Sung. 6. The Korean People's Army was also responsible for multiple massacres, killing more than 120 thousand civilians, according to reports by the South Korean government in 1952 and 1955. Other sources estimate around 30 thousand to 50 thousand civilians. This in no shape or form justifies the actions of the South Korean and the United States government, but the actions of the North should also be recognized and condemned.

As part of the Japanese influencing Korea before annexing it, Japan assassinated the defiant Korean queen Empress Myeongseong and intervened in the 1894-1895 Donghak Peasant Revolution. In the revolution, Joseon requested the Qing for assistance in stopping the revolution, which the Japanese were angry because Qing did not inform them (which was part of an agreement of the Convention of Tientsin) with and started the First Sino-Japanese War! By the time of her death in 1895, the queen had acquired basically more political power than even her husband the Gwangmu Emperor Gojong. Because of this, she made many enemies, among them were the king's father the Heungseon Daewongun, pro-Japanese ministers of the court, and the Japanese-trained Korean army regiment, the Hullyeondae. Weeks before her death, Japan replaced their emissary to Korea with a new one, Miura Gorō. Miura was a former military man who was inexperienced in diplomacy and was frustrated with dealing with such a powerful empress. Less than a month after his arrival in Korea, Empress Myeongseong ordered the disbanding of the Hullyeondae militia. Miura saw this as a first step in an attempt to remove pro-Japanese members of the government and loyalists to the Heungseon Daewongun, aligning Korea with the Russians to offset Japanese influence. Miura struck a deal with Adachi Kenzō of the newspaper Kanjō Shinpō and the Daewongun to carry out her killing in October of that year. The agents were let into the palace by pro-Japanese Korean guards. Once inside, they beat and threatened the royal family and the occupants of the palace during their search for the queen. Two women suspected of being the queen were killed. When the queen was eventually located, her killer jumped on her chest three times, then finished her off with a sword. The Japanese government arrested the assassins, but were acquitted of all charges, despite the court acknowledging that the defendants had conspired to take her down. Later, after the Japan-Korea Annexation Treaty in 1910, Miura became a privy councilor and focused on eliminating vestiges of the clan-based factionalism from politics

This is an amazing video. I did not know enough about this war. Please cite your sources in the description so we can do further research!

What I knew before watching: - The US imposed a military dictatorship in South Korea - Japan was practically pardoned because they needed as many anti-communist movements in Asia - South Korea was very underprepared - The South committed more atrocities than the North before and during the war. What I learned after watching - There were far more atrocities in the South than I knew - The Cheju and Yeosu Uprisings - The execution of those who were in "re-education camps" - North Korea made major reforms that benefitted their people (at least in its early days) - South Koreans hated the fact that the US was making the division more permanent despite the communists presence in the North - There was a governing body that was dismantled in the South by the US - There was a period in which Koreans could move across the 38th Parallel - North Koreans aided in the Chinese Civil War (which explains their knowledge of warfare during the Korean War) This video really helped me learn much more about the war. I'll definitely check out that book. Thank you very much! Will now be checking out the next video.

Shame you didn't talk about how the North Korean flag came to be! The thing about the North Korean flag is, even though North Korean history claims Kim Il-sung created it, that's not actually true! Between 1946 and 1948, North Korea and South Korea used very similar Taegukgi flags, though today of course just South Korea uses the Taegukgi. In 1947 the Soviets discussed whether the Taegukgi flag should be kept. Vice Chairman of the Provisional People's Committee for North Korea Kim Tu-bong was in favor of keeping the Taegukgi as well as Kim Il-sung for nationalism. However, for Soviet Major General Nikolai Georgiyevich Lebedev, the concept of Chinese philosophy, which the design of the Taegukgi is based on, appear to him as medieval superstition, so he wanted to change it to a flag that wasn't superstitious nor nationalist. Tu-bong yielded and a few months later, the design for the new flag was dictated from Moscow, although it is not known which Soviet official designed the flag. Tu-bong was later purged by Kim Il-sung in 1957. As for how the Taegukgi became a symbol of Koreans: The need for a national flag became an issue in 1876 during the Japan-Korea Treaty of 1876 when the then Great Joseon kingdom had no corresponding symbol to the Japanese flag during negotiations. The issue remained unpursued for a period but reemerged with the negotiation of the United States-Korea Treaty of 1882, with Chinese official Ma Jianzhong suggested using Lee Eung-jun's Taegeuk and Eight Trigrams flag. Park Yeong-hyo presented a scale model of the Lee Eung-jun's taegukgi to the Joseon government, and Gojong approved the design. Park Yeong-hyo became the first person to use the taegukgi in 1882, and in January 1883, Park's version of the Taegukgi became the official flag. The term Taegeuk and its overall concept is derived from the Chinese Taiji. The taegeuk diagram has been existent for the majority of written Korean history, like a sword recovered from the grave of Michu of Silla had the taegeuk on it! The four black trigrams are specific representations of the movement and harmony of these forces. In detail, the geon symbolizes the sky, the gon the earth, the gam water, and the ri fire. Together, they create harmony around the taegeuk mark.

Proper history lesson, I have been studying history for 15.000+ hours, and yet some of these subjects have gone unnoticed on my radar regarding the Korean War. You are doing the world a favor, well done!

More on Kim Il-sung and his guerrilla history: Kim's family participated in anti-Japanese activities and fled to Manchuria in 1920. While in China, he attended Whasung Military Academy in 1926, but found the academy's training methods outdated and quit in 1927. He then attended Yuwen Middle School in Jilin province until 1930, when he rejected feudal traditions and became interested in communism. The then seventeen-year-old Kim became the youngest member of the Korean Communist Youth Association, an underground Marxist organization with fewer than twenty members. The police discovered the group three weeks after it formed in 1929, and jailed Kim for several months. His formal education ended after his arrest and imprisonment. In 1932, he joined the CCP. In 1935, Kim became a member of the Northeast Anti-Japanese United Army, a guerrilla group led by the CCP. Kim met the man who would become his mentor, Wei Zhengmin, Kim's immediate superior officer, who served at the time as chairman of the Political Committee of the Northeast Anti-Japanese United Army. Wei reported directly to Kang Sheng, a high-ranking party member close to Mao Zedong in Yan'an, until Wei's death in March 1941. Kim's actions during the Minsaengdan incident (a series of purges by the CCP against Koreans) helped solidify his leadership. Kim was arrested in late 1933 and exonerated in early 1934. His memoirs, and those of the guerrillas who fought alongside him, cite Kim's seizing and burning the suspect files of the Purge Committee as key to solidifying his leadership. After the destruction of the suspect files and the rehabilitation of suspects, those who had fled the purge rallied around him. Thus in 1935, he took the name "Kim become the sun". In June 1937, he led 200 guerrillas in a raid on Pochonbo, destroying the local government offices and setting fire to a Japanese police station and post office. The success of the raid demonstrated his talents as a military leader. Even more significant than the military success itself was the political coordination and organization between the guerrillas and the Korean Fatherland Restoration Association, an anti-Japanese united front group based in Manchuria. For their part, the Japanese regarded Kim as one of the most effective and popular Korean guerrilla leaders ever. He appeared on Japanese wanted lists as the "Tiger". The Japanese "Maeda Unit" was even sent to hunt him in February 1940, and the Japanese kidnapped a wife who they believed to be Kim Il-sung's first wife and used her as a hostage to get him before killing her. This made Kim and his troops cross to the Soviet Union, and while there, Kim Jong-il was born in 1941 (though the DPRK officially claims he was born around Mount Paektu). To commemorate the Korean resistance during the Japanese period by Kim Il-sung and celebrate his 70th birthday in 1982, the DPRK government created the Arch of Triumph in Pyongyang! The Arch of Triumph in Pyongyang was based off the Arc de Triomphe and is slightly taller than the Arc de Triomphe at 60 m. Each of its 25,500 blocks of finely-dressed granite represents a day of his life up to that point!

You should talk about the Coup d'état of December Twelfth next

i never learn this before

Nice video

Finally, someone who talks about not just the north but also the south

I love this

The "states rights brother" guy made me laugh so hard

Could you supply any sources found about the things discussed in the "Elections in the South" section? It is very interesting and want to read more about it.

Hi! If you specify which claims you'd like to know more about, I can check later

You are amazing....

This video is amazing. Keep up the great work!! Not gonna lie, but I like how he just dissed everyone in the beginning.

4:00 to skip the ad You're welcome

Thank you once again for the informative video as I had already commented under the second part. I've always wondered how did America make use of the Unit 731 experiments. Plague in Korea. I just hope you would have talked about the Korean government in exile as well. It heard it was technically the successor of the Korean Empire that was before Japanese annexation (and the Korean People's Republic) and South Korea claims to be the successor of that government in exile. Also, can you please explain to me how the Cheju and Yeosu massacres are considered genocide? Anyway, I hope you have a nice day. Love, from Hungary

I’d make a joke about oversimplified being quite after this dropped but he’s genuinely quite

It’s really rare for someone who’s not Korean to mention the caste system that predated the Japanese occupation. It was like medieval feudalism to say the least. Still refreshing for it to even get a short mention.

Awesome this video needs more views history should be the truth and we shouldn’t lie about it

Could you post some links on where to find all the information you got for this video I cant find news articles from London Herald or Guardian of London about South Korean troops being in North Korea I can only find papers on the North invading or declaring war in the same month. I also cant find any information suggesting the US encouraged South Koreans to murder their own people.

I throw up at school but then I get to see this at home??

GOOD VIDEO
