Hello everyone and welcome to my channel. I'm interested in making videos on Korean history, travelling around Korea and making the occasional English education videos. Having lived in Korea for many years, I use my experience here to help me create various content and go on site to get footage related to the historical topics I explore.
Thank you for stopping by and I hope you enjoy the content. Thanks for watching!
I'm five years late, just found this channel yesterday and I've been watching some of the videos. finally decided to subscribe and start from the beginning. ❤
Thank you for this short documentary, a few months ago I watched some videos on Korea's history and got interested in the last decades of unified Korea. It really puts in perspective the later events of the Korean peninsula.
No Tyrant is born tyrant. They wronged his mother, and killed her. He learned that later as a young man and his initial crimes shows the amount of grief and despair he must have been in for knowing his mother was assasinated. After that the court turned against him and it was forever after a locked in reign of terror. If the court had recognized the error of the assasination of his mother and forgiven him maybe things may have gone back to normal but they didn't acknowledge his grief. He had no exit his life would be perpetual revenge and cruelty. He became a monster and a madman. This was the price the court paid for assassinating a boy's mother.

3:53 Actually, their language was said to be different, and the two sources I have seen cite only leather not specific animals’ skin. "They have small bodies, and their language is different from that of the Koreans. They all shave their heads like the Xiānbēi (of the Eurasian Steppes), and they wear leather garmets." "They are seafarers who go to and fro and trade with the Koreans" - Records of the Three Kingdoms, Book of Wu, Biographic History of the Eastern Yi (三國志 魏書, 東夷傳) Also: “In the middle of the ocean west of the Mahan confederacy (Southeastern Korea), there is an island where resides the nation of Juho. The people of Juho have small bodies with shaved heads, and they wear leather tops with no lower garmets. They take to the husbandry of cows and pigs. They come and go by boat, and trade with Korea.” - Book of the Later Han, Biographic History of the Eastern Yi (後漢書, 東夷列傳)
Yes, but he is a distant descendant. Myeongseong’s children passed away in childhood, and her last surviving son never had kids of his own. So, Suga/Yoongi is not directly descended from Myeongseong.
I've enjoyed your longer format, highlighting the last Empress of Joseon Myeongseong. What difficult moments Joseon has had to endure and keep a national identity and culture. Thank you for turning out such high quality insightful content.
Have been subscribed for long and just wanna say thank you so much for making these! I’m currently a student in Korea studying a subject about Korean culture and history, but since it’s all in Korean, sometimes it’s hard to grasp. Your video greatly help to revise and prepare for my uni 🙌
Found out yesturday, as a korean chinese, that my great grandmother was a direct descendent of yi seong gye, and was one of the last royalties in the joseon kingdom. i heard from my dad that she was a very important royalty, but escaped with guards in the 1900s from korean pennensula due to japanese invasion and their capturing and killing of royal members. i didn't know why my grandmother was rich, now i am kinda shocked.
Goguryeo themselves never callled themselves Goguryeo. They were known as Goryeo from the start. The name Goryeo appears in Korean history many times indicating a continuing legacy, and an undeniable link from Goryeo to Korea. No amount of book burning or cultural revolution can destroy this fact.
Aborder le thème de la vie des femmes en Corée est intéressant à plus d’un titre. En France, même si l’histoire nous différencie de part sa culture et sa religion, la vie des femmes a aussi eu son cortège d’interdits. Ce n’est qu’après la seconde guerre mondiale que les femmes ont pu voter pour la première fois. Même si nous ne portons pas l’histoire d’un confucianisme rigide, notre liberté fut acquise après bien des luttes. Je ne me revendique aucunement féministe tout en étant pour l’égalité des chances hommes femmes. Et, même s’il reste encore du chemin à parcourir, je suis heureuse d’être née en France. Merci de votre effort pour la traduction en français.❤️🦋🕊️
J’ai comme beaucoup d’internautes eu l’occasion de voir Saimdang sur Netflix. Cette série a été retirée et c’est dommage. Merci de faire revivre à travers votre documentaire l’histoire de cette femme extraordinaire. ❤️🦋🕊️
@@loonytrickyj’ai pu voir les numéros 1 et 2 mais le documentaire sur Shin Saimdang n’est pas encore disponible sous-titré en français. Merci pour vos efforts de traduction. ❤️🦋🕊️
Je suis ravie d’avoir pu suivre la partie 1 de l’un de vos documentaires traduite en français. Pouvez-vous s’il vous plaît faire de même pour les autres ? Merci d’avance.❤️🦋🕊️
