Publisher's Review
As fun as an old story,
World history that you can understand without memorizing it
The untold story of history that we never knew about unfolds!
Nothing in this world just happens.
Everything is connected, whether we see it or not.
We call the accumulation of these events 'history.'
However, the history we learn in class is centered around major events that are visible to the eye.
As a result, history came to be seen as something to be memorized and boring.
If we add to this the interesting stories that have been unseen to us but have caused the world to shake, history becomes an interesting and exciting event.
Rudyard Kipling, author of The Jungle Book, said, “History taught in the form of stories is never forgotten.”
『Naked World History: Incident Edition』 is a compilation of historical events covered in the tvN program 『Naked World History』 with that intention.
It contains not only moments that made a significant mark on world history, but also surprising facts that we encounter for the first time, and even history outside the frame that we have never seen before.
From the Greek myth of the wars of the gods to the last war of the 20th century, historical events that shook the world over a very long period of time are presented in a three-dimensional manner by experts in each field.
In particular, due to time constraints, we have organized in detail even the content that could not be shown on the broadcast, so you can enjoy the vivid context of history as well as the hidden aspects of history that we did not know about.

From Greek mythology to the last war of the 20th century,
An engaging and informative non-contact world history study
In Greek mythology, Zeus is called the 'king of the gods' who rules over gods, humans, and the world.
But to us, he is more widely known as a troublemaker, a womanizer and a bundle of trouble.
But did you know that if Zeus had not cheated, there would have been no Greek or Egyptian civilization?
『Romance of the Three Kingdoms』 is considered one of the greatest classics in East Asia, to the point that there is even a saying, “Do not discuss life with someone who has not read this book at least three times.”
It tells the story of wars, conspiracies, and strategies of countless heroes.
But did you know that the book we so often read is actually a novel, closer to a story than a historical account? The characters depicted in the novel "Romance of the Three Kingdoms"—Liu Bei, Cao Cao, Zhuge Liang, and others—are vastly different from their historical counterparts.
On January 17, 1991, for the first time in human history, a war scene was broadcast live on television.
As the United States attacked Baghdad, the Iraqi capital, flashes of anti-aircraft fire spread like fireworks across the pitch-black night sky.
Soon, Tomahawk missiles and laser-guided bombs were broadcast live, tracking and detonating their targets with astonishing accuracy.
People around the world were shocked by the fact that they could watch real war situations vividly from the comfort of their own homes, as if watching a movie.
But this was all a sophisticated strategy intended by the United States.
What was their intention?
"Naked World History: Events" delves into the fascinating history hidden within major events that marked world history, from Greek mythology to the last war of the 20th century.
We begin a journey of world history that is more interesting and informative than a trip, starting with the war of gods and ending with the war of humans, traveling around the world with intellectuals representing each field representing Korea through contactless means.
· Zeus's affair, was it really a big picture?
· The greatest strategist, Zhuge Liang, was he a created genius?
· Why didn't Jews get the plague so easily?
· Qing Dynasty? Japan? Russia. Why did they fight on foreign soil?
· What did soldiers fear more than bullets in World War I?
· With unemployment and bankruptcies surging, how did the United States escape the Great Depression?
· Two nuclear bombs were dropped on Japan, and another victim was Korea?
· World War III almost broke out, and that too with nuclear war?
· Why did the United States broadcast the First Gulf War live?
