Making Korean People 2
Description
Book Introduction
The "Making Koreans" series traces the political, international, and ideological backgrounds of the five human types that form the basis of the "Korean people."
This book is the second volume in the series, "Making Koreans," and explores why and how the "pro-Japanese reformist faction" was formed.
Despite the anti-Japanese sentiment deeply rooted in the minds of Koreans, the sense of cultural superiority over "Wa," and the strong isolationist policy, by the end of the 19th century, pro-Japanese reformists emerged who accepted Japan as the new standard of civilization.
This was a surprising shift in perception among the Joseon people, who had long considered China to be the axis of civilization.
The reason this 'Copernican Revolution' was possible was because we directly witnessed and learned about Japan's Meiji Restoration, which was a success unparalleled in world history.
At the time, it was difficult and dangerous to see and learn from Japan, but they learned from Japan, which was undergoing a rapid modernization process while overcoming all adversities.
The pro-Japanese reformists established a new worldview and national outlook through direct exchanges with Japanese politicians, businessmen, and thinkers who successfully led the political, economic, social, cultural, and ideological revolution known as the Meiji Restoration.
And in Joseon, too, they want to promote radical reforms like the Meiji Restoration.
However, they eventually fell into decline as they encountered resistance from the pro-Chinese faction that advocated for moderate reforms based on the "East Road, West Instrument Theory" (東道西器論).
