I want to learn more about the history of Korea and its relationship with Japan.

Personal opinion: Almost all of them branched out from ancient China and have an inevitable relationship with China.

If in order, it seems to be the first Korea and then Japan, Korea was the first to be called Goryeo, Japan is Liuqiu, is two tribes with a very small population, Korea used to be called Korea, and later it was divided into South Korea and North Korea, North Korea is on the edge of Yanbian in northeast China, so some Northeast people can also speak Korean; And Japan was originally a part of China, and later because of the change of topography and the topography, Japan formed a small island alone and began to create its own life, but some cultures were imitated when the Liuqiu people visited China in the Tang and Song dynasties, so there is a certain connection between China and Japan in some aspects.

- Dividing line ---

Reference: The information is as follows.

Generally speaking, official relations are good, and Japan-ROK relations are better than Japan-China relations, and Japan's current strategy is to drag South Korea into opposing China, for example, on the same issue of textbooks, Koizumi will at least admit his mistakes a little when he meets with Envoy Lu Wuxuan, and ignore China. Among the people, there are two kinds of Japanese sentiments towards South Korea, one is that middle-aged and elderly housewives generally like South Korea and are greatly influenced by Korean dramas, and on the other hand, some elites despise South Korea, and "Disgusting Korean Wave", which was quite popular some time ago, is a good example. Personally, I think that the Korean people will have anti-Japanese sentiments on major issues, like China, but the performance in life is not very obvious, they also use Japanese goods, not like the traditional Korean street can not see a Japanese car or the like, maybe the car does not use Japanese, but you look at the amount of luxury goods and high-tech products that Japan exports to South Korea every year, you can see that the Korean people still recognize Japanese goods very much from the huge amount.

In addition, the relationship between Korean and Japanese students in my class is quite good. And the laptops used by Koreans are either Japanese toshiba, or IBM, or Taiwanese, I have hardly seen Koreans use their own brand of notebooks, and digital cameras are rarely used, no way, Japan is very strong in some aspects, not convinced.

To correct the fact that North Korea was originally called Gogur (gou) Li.

Both South Korea and Japan are U.S. allies. Both countries have U.S. troops stationed, and in the Asia-Pacific region, China, North Korea, and Russia are all potential adversaries for them, so South Korea and Japan have common interests in some aspects, but the two countries also have many contradictions, such as territorial issues, historical issues, and South Korea is also dependent on Japan in terms of economy.

Origins of Japan

The Japanese archipelago was the first to appear 200,000 years ago, and the earliest known Japanese human fossils date back to about 30,000 years ago. According to the Kojiki and Japanese Chronicles, the first emperor, Emperor Jimmu, was founded and enthroned in 660 B.C., and the date of his accession to the throne was equivalent to February 11 in the Western calendar, so this day was designated as the anniversary of the founding of the country.

In the 4th century, Japan had the first unified government, the Yamato Kingdom, and then after the Taika Reform, the emperor system was established, and Tang culture was introduced, and the political system of the Tang Dynasty was imitated in China, and the Ritsuryo system was attempted to create a state with a ryori system.

In 710, Emperor Motomei moved his capital to Heijokyo, and Japan entered the Nara period, and the Ritsuryo system matured. At this time, the Yamato regime also gradually expanded, conquering parts of the Tohoku region and southern Kyushu.

In 1867, Emperor Meiji rectified domestic affairs, enriched the country and strengthened the army, and after World War I, he briefly experienced the Taisho Democratic period, and in the 30s of the 20th century, he fell under the control of the military department and practiced militarism, but in 1945 he was defeated by the allies and announced his surrender. After the restoration of sovereignty, Japan's economy grew at a high speed and ranked among the advanced countries until the 90s of the 20th century, when the bubble economy burst, and Japan entered a long-term state of relative economic recession.

Japan-South Korea friendship? non-existent

Japan and South Korea are natural rivals, not in recent times, but for thousands of years.

The poor relations between the two countries are mainly caused by historical reasons and geopolitics.

First, Japan invaded the Korean Peninsula more than once in history (although it was always drunkards, not alcohol), causing indelible damage to the Korean Peninsula;

second, territorial issues such as Dokdo;

Third, U.S. involvement and interference.

Japan has always been restless since it was still called a "Japanese slave," and has always been unwilling to live on islands in a vain attempt to get involved in the Asian continent, and even in modern times, it has delusionally imagined that immigrants will become a real "continental country," and the Korean Peninsula, which is the closest to Japan, has borne the brunt.

From ancient times to the present, Japan invaded Baekje many times, invaded the Joseon Dynasty, etc., and invaded its royal palace, and during the Ming Dynasty, the entire Korean Peninsula was almost razed to the ground.

In modern times, the Korean Peninsula has been a Japanese colony for decades, causing great damage to the inhabitants of the Korean Peninsula.

Even, the famous "38th Parallel" was first demarcated between Japan and Tsarist Russia in order to divide the sphere of influence.

Today, Japan and South Korea have also been at loggerheads over territorial issues.

In particular, the famous Dokdo issue has been disputed between the two countries.

Japan is strong, but South Korea is also unrelenting, and it will not let go of Dokdo Chaqing.

The influence of geopolitical factors is also very important, after all, the strength of Japan, South Korea and even the whole of East Asia cannot be underestimated, once the grievances are resolved and united, it is very unfavorable to the hegemony of the United States, so there will be variables at many critical times.

Inter-Korean relations refer to the relations between the two nation-states on the Korean Peninsula that do not have the same relationship between the DPRK and the ROK.

In 1945, after the end of World War II, the US and Soviet armies separately occupied both sides of the 38th parallel, and each ruled the occupied area according to the model of self-inferiority.

After the armistice of the Korean War, the peninsula was in a state of political confrontation, military confrontation, and economic isolation for a long time.

Love-hate The two sides hate but depend on each other.

Look down on each other, but also depend on each other...

The main customers of Korea's tourism and cosmetics industry are Japanese. Like China, everyone is friends when doing business, and when it comes to ***, everyone turns against each other.

Not good either! There is a lot of trouble about (weianfu). The Japanese also hate Koreans.

These two countries can, because they are both countries that revolve around the United States and listen to people!

The attitude of the Japanese, who hate Koreans the most, followed by Chinese, and then Southeast Asians, is generally friendly to Europeans and Americans.

Relations between countries, for better or worse, are determined solely by national interests.

Have you ever seen which country and which country is really good? There are all interests involved, and when it comes to big interests, everyone is talking in vain.

South Korea claimed to be the son of China, so good that the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs, he made trouble in the back, and was finally destroyed in the end, so that he could be like this.

But it's a pit...

The Tang Dynasty conquered Korea and spent national strength hanging.

The Ming Dynasty resisted Japan and aided Korea, and it cost national strength to hang.

New China... Korean... Almost...
