Wow, knew about the Korean war but didn't know it was this bad. My respect goes to the Korean people both North and South. Hope they can unite in peace again some day.
Korean war was terrible, the korean occupation by japan was worse and south korea was plagued with massacres and torture till the 80s, and the economic crisis of the 90s; yeah the 20th century was a bad time to be in korea lol
One fascinating aspect of this division that I learned of is that during the most recent Winter Olympics the North and South teams competed together. For the women's hockey team, this presented a unique problem. The Southern team incorporates a lot of English words into their communications (pass, shoot, etc) while the Northern team used exclusively Korean terms for their communications. It was just a fact that I found interesting.

That must be tough, so everybody please be grateful for what you have now. Especially the current generations of the south unlike the past.
He got many, many, many parts wrong, painting the war as if it was the US' fault the South was invaded. He even said the Japanese colonial government remained in Korea by order of the Americans, which is just plain wrong
Korea was divided in the heat of the cold War basically politically but India Pakistan and Bangladesh were divided on the basis of religion which is the worst!! For a moment one can imagine an United Korea but not an United bharatvarsha!!
Dividing the Koreans, it's always very difficult for me to understand that how does in history a foreign power was able to rule, divide, basically destroy the people who look the same, share same culture but still were made to think different and forbidden to contact each other.
Great video. As a Korean I really appreciate it. I hope this videos makes Americans realize that South Korea doesn't "thank" America for "helping" them fight the Korean War. America and the USSR created this war. You don't stab someone and give them painkillers and expect them to thank you, but it's a common US tactic. Also, see 7:01. I hope you realize how careless and unethical America was in "installing capitalism". Rhee Seung Man, the first president of S Korea was a puppet installed by America to fight against communism. In that process, America murdered Kim Gu, a heroic leader of Korea at the time, to make this happen. see 7:08 Because without him dead, you cannot make a no-name American puppet become the president. The following dictatorships and coup d'etat also show that capitalism vs communism isn't exactly good vs evil. Not now, but especially not then. There were tons of anti-communist dictatorships that slaughtered ppl. I am saying this because the media often portrays communism and totalitarisn dictatorship as same. USSR at least cared about North Korea. They wanted the North to succeed with communism. US didn't give a fuck about the South. Please respect Korea, both north and south. Please criticize the North correctly with the knowledge of its history. Please appreciate the South's pop culture while respecting its painful history.
What? Soviet let Kim in charge . He was a warmonger like Lee. Soviet knew Kim would go to war with the south korean government but they didn't care. Also stalin deported millions of Koreans living in manchuria during the 1920s which resulted in thousands of death. Soviets didnt care about Korea. 야 소련이 한국에 대해서 멀 생각해? 게들은 한국인들은 고려인의 강제 이동할때 20만명을 강제로 이동시켯어. 그때 2만 5000명이 넘게 죽었어. 소련이 만주 공격할때 중국인들과 한국인들 시민들도 학살하고 강간 시켯어. 소련이 우리에 대해서 생각한건 하나도 없어. 소련과 미국 다 같이 우리들을 체스 조각 밖으로박에 생각하지 못했어.

You always makes literally every topic so much interesting that people will hardly leave the video in between. Also thanks for this video , before watching i only know the fight between North and south korea but didnt know the reason behind it . Your narration skills are just amazing . Can we have one on Christianity ? please
It's amazing how much disparity has been caused by colonial powers drawing borders on a map... to either take advantage of the instability caused by grouping very different ethnicities and religious sects together (just look at the borders drawn in the Middle East)... Or done with no consideration on how those new borders could cause global problems in the future (like the Korean border).
I’ve seen some other videos about Korea’s history but there was a lot in here I didn’t know and it was really fascinating. Thanks for this, I learned a lot. The ending broke my heart a little because it’s just so sad how common of a story this is. So many lives destroyed or permanently altered because of ideological wars. Hopefully someday Korea will be able to peacefully reunite and all the fear and devastation can be put to rest.
Amazing well researched video. It gave deep insight about north korean thinking. Most of videos on Nk-SK are from south korea bias. Covering almost all mistakes of South korea. This video was the only one which explained the dark side of South korean history too. When you said that for koreans its question of when not will... I had tears man 🤧👏👏
Man ! the amount of creativity and hardwork you put in your videos is really something that you should be appreciated for. I really wish that your reaches the count 1 million subscribers ASAP. Lots of love 💖from India 🇮🇳

The cherry on top is that all your videos give respect and insight to the topic and culture being discussed.
thank you for sharing this detailed history of korea. not too many people know about this and as a korean myself, it needs to be known by the world so it can develop correctly
Well Korea can unite because they were divided politically for other's benefit but the countries like India Pakistan bangladesh etc. have a very less probability of uniting because they are separated on the basis of religion and people have moved too far :-(

Thank you for sharing this, it makes me solemn especially as the world faces another war in Israel/Palestine and ongoing Ukraine/Russia. Let's just hope conflicts come to and end soon.
This video actually taught me much, and avoided it initially though for thinking that it was to basic due to the very basic sounding title.. it was way more than just scratching the surface though, and very well made.. you should have called the video title something broader in my opinion like, theatreflects the more in depth analysis you provided.

As a german, who´s home country was separated for similar reasons i can emphasize with the Korean people. However, our situation was very different because Germany didn't´t have a civil war following WW2. Videos like this are important, because they show us that despite what the mainstream opinion might be, in a war there are no right and wrong sides. Especially a civil war. I´m just wondering how the two Koreas will ever be reunited and wether such a thing would be possible without another military conflict. Hopefully...
Wow thanks for telling us about that. I always thought North Korea was a terrible place from the first day it was founded, but now I know that is was once better then the south
@@unknownbutknown332 neither country was free from the start neither got to pick thier leaders how does one become president due to everyone running dying clearly the cia was offing them
Tried the same with Vietnam but the people won there. And he may have been a dictator but saying that Korea's problem are all caused by foreign countries is actually not wrong.
Man.. I spent two years in Korea (fun fact: I turned 21 there as well) and was actively ignoring all of the history lessons we were taught and spent most of my time partying and just enjoying the scenery as any naive young American with too much money on his hands would do. After watching this I feel embarrassed and remorseful for my lack of respect for their culture and history that we played such a heavy part in, especially with it being so recent! The only thing that intrigued me was being told that none of the trees there were over 50 years old because of the war but I just thought it was an interesting tidbit.. not a testament to the tumultuous and abhorrent bloodshed of yesteryear. In my opinion, this video exemplifies the strength of humanity. The Korean people I had the pleasure of conversing and hanging out with were very optimistic, happy, relaxed, and incredibly welcoming to me and my other battle buddies, and the things mentioned in this video weren’t being complained about even remotely close to how my brothers and sisters that are Afro descendent still do about slavery 150+ years ago. C’est la vie 🤷🏾♂️
@@dell7013 I wouldn't mind if they speak about black slavery atrocities committed by white supremacists for the rest of the time! Humanity can't drop down any lower!
wow i love your videos so much! this is so well articulated i’m deeply impressed by the clear and creative narrative you developed along with fasnicating animations!!
6:50 And also, he was a Korean independent activist. For 40 years of exile in the USA, Rhee tries to ask and convince the US government to accept the provisional government of Korea in China as a country.
@@CogitoEdu There are many errors in the video. I care that the clothes worn by the characters in the work are not hanbok at all. And it is difficult to understand that Korea is described as a country unilaterally affected by Japan or China. Influence of Baekje kingdom on the Japanese Asuka culture such as seven branched sword and Buddha statue, the fact that Korean potters kidnapped by Japan after the Imjin War contributed to the Japanese ceramic industry, or Bushido based on Confucian philosophy introduced to Japan through Korean Confucian scholars during the Edo Shogunate... these are did not exist?
This video summarizes well the modern history of Korea, except for the incorrect description of Japan's forced sex slavery policy as "prostitution." Besides that, I can guarantee that this is a good quality video. Thanks for this.
Whenever I hear “demilitarized zone” it sounds ironic to my ignorant butt because it’s the most guarded area on the North Korean side. It’s crazy to me that my school didn’t say much about the Korean War, since the US was a major contributor to whatever happened in Korea during the Cold War. Then again I’m not surprised given what they did.

Cogito DESERVES MORE VIEWS AND SUBS.
Tried the same with Vietnam but the people won there. And he may have been a dictator but saying that Korea's problem are all caused by foreign countries is actually not wrong.
This channel has seriously informative Documentaries. Thank You!
My grandmas brother was in the Korean War, it’s sad how many people died. R.I.P to everyone who died in the Korean War.
History is beautiful, I remember at school learning this topic, the USSR and US
Man.. I spent two years in Korea (fun fact: I turned 21 there as well) and was actively ignoring all of the history lessons we were taught and spent most of my time partying and just enjoying the scenery as any naive young American with too much money on his hands would do. After watching this I feel embarrassed and remorseful for my lack of respect for their culture and history that we played such a heavy part in, especially with it being so recent! The only thing that intrigued me was being told that none of the trees there were over 50 years old because of the war but I just thought it was an interesting tidbit.. not a testament to the tumultuous and abhorrent bloodshed of yesteryear.
In my opinion, this video exemplifies the strength of humanity. The Korean people I had the pleasure of conversing and hanging out with were very optimistic, happy, relaxed, and incredibly welcoming to me and my other battle buddies, and the things mentioned in this video weren’t being complained about even remotely close to how my brothers and sisters that are Afro descendent still do about slavery 150+ years ago. C’est la vie 🤷🏾♂️
Wow, all of that just to close by shitting on black people.
@@corsaircaruso471 lol
@@dell7013 I wouldn't mind if they speak about black slavery atrocities committed by white supremacists for the rest of the time!
Humanity can't drop down any lower!
I'm sorry, but many trees over hundreds of years old can still be found in Korea. Just because the number is small doesn't mean there isn't.
I’m subscribing because I really appreciate your content and production value. Keep it up!!
subscribing cogito is worth
Hi from Romania! Please, make once a video about South America. I don't care what is it about. I believe in you. I just know it would be cool
So informative..
I love the narrator's sense of humor!... It's amazing
Very heavy yet enlightening. Thank you for the video, Cogito!
As always, wonderful video.
I’m dead 😂 Japan got in with a bad crowd?? Lol started smoking lol
First video I have seen from you and it earned you a subscription
"That's a communism!" Sounds familiar somehow.
Oversimplified
wow i love your videos so much! this is so well articulated i’m deeply impressed by the clear and creative narrative you developed along with fasnicating animations!!
6:50 And also, he was a Korean independent activist. For 40 years of exile in the USA, Rhee tries to ask and convince the US government to accept the provisional government of Korea in China as a country.
Exceptional portrayal bro!!
Someone get this man to a million ....
2 Koreas? Those are rookie numbers.
I remember when there used to be 3 Koreas.
3 koreas ?
@@_unknown_2311 yup, during the 3 kingdoms of Korea, Goguryeo, Baekje, and Silla
@@nathankim9329
Oh is that it?
Thank you Ms./Mr.
I see you're a man of culture
@@nathankim9329 Thanks I Learned There Were 3 Koreas
Me: Britain no!
Britain: no, it wasn’t me!
Me: sorry, habit
We Indians can also feel the pain of Koreas because our country 'Hindustan' into two countries on the lines hate and politics.
Much respect to Koreans.
In india we only get lessons of the European countries..
Not abt Fellow Asian countries : (
YOU EXPLAINED IT SO WELL
Bruh, why is there a Korean word potato up on the board of the palace🤣 at 0:50
I just used the words egg and potato for most of the Korean signs in the video. Glad someone enjoyed it :D
@@CogitoEdu There are many errors in the video.
I care that the clothes worn by the characters in the work are not hanbok at all.
And it is difficult to understand that Korea is described as a country unilaterally affected by Japan or China.
Influence of Baekje kingdom on the Japanese Asuka culture such as seven branched sword and Buddha statue, the fact that Korean potters kidnapped by Japan after the Imjin War contributed to the Japanese ceramic industry, or Bushido based on Confucian philosophy introduced to Japan through Korean Confucian scholars during the Edo Shogunate... these are did not exist?
When you make a grammatical error in the title, but you also made it in the thumbnail so you just roll with it. Good vid though.
He changed it... :-(
It's the grammar that's wrong. I am correct 😄
I love this type of content your just like oversimplified.
This video summarizes well the modern history of Korea, except for the incorrect description of Japan's forced sex slavery policy as "prostitution." Besides that, I can guarantee that this is a good quality video. Thanks for this.
Wow thank you for this video. I learned a lot today.
8:31 Yes Koreans indeed actually call the Korean war the Yugio war. Yug-I-O standing for 6, 2, 5 respectively - since the war started on June 25th.
Ohhh, everything is on 🔥🔥🔥…the comedic relief is so good 🤣🤣
God bless you cogito
Bless you :D
Winners write the history and rest of the world belive they are good.
Whenever I hear “demilitarized zone” it sounds ironic to my ignorant butt because it’s the most guarded area on the North Korean side. It’s crazy to me that my school didn’t say much about the Korean War, since the US was a major contributor to whatever happened in Korea during the Cold War. Then again I’m not surprised given what they did.
