speaking as an asian who grew up in the west (Canada) i can relate to the two korean american girls, here in the west no matter what type of asian you all of us tend to stick and get along to one another and arent really affected by the politics that happen within asia. because our issues in the west concern us more as asians than separately as chinese, jpn, korean etc. Korea and Japan relations are a lot more calmer now than the trade war that happened a few years ago. And tbh right now they really aren't what people are concerned about.. a bigger issue that folks are worried abt now are Korea-China relations.
Perspectives are different for Korean-Americans vs Native Koreans. *Korean-Americans weren't raised in Korea*...They wouldn't truly understand Eastern politics and it doesn't directly affect them as it does Native Koreans (Koreans who actually live in Korea)...So, obviously, Korean-Americans don't have general animosity towards Japan.
The young koreans are a generation that did not directly experience the Japanese colonial period. Nevertheless, the reason they have a certain level of hostility toward Japan comes from the social atmosphere and education. Korean Americans are not Koreans.
I am a fourth generation Korean living in Japan. I asked my great-grandparents about the war, and they and many of my hometown acquaintances told me that they were not forcibly taken away from their homes. They fled to the safety of Japan. The more I research, the more I don't know what is true, but at least the Koreans living in Japan around me are living happily in Japan and I love both countries.
@@yyyymmddhhmm yes. As you say, I haven't asked all the Korean residents in Japan, but there are many Korean households around me, and I wanted to convey the atmosphere of those people. For those of us who live normally, when this topic comes up, we get the impression that it is exaggerated.
Lots of Korean young people visit Japan and buy so many products...Also in Japanese museums it is interesting to note there exists the acknowledgment that alot of culture and knowledge was passed from China and Korea to Japan in ancient times. However WW2 isnt touched on.
As a japanese, I understand why that young lady has anti japanese feelings. But I hope that she realizes many japanese people like myself like South Korea.
yeah a lot of koreans like japan but still Japan should stop hiding what actually happened in the past to its own people. because koreans are aware of what happened while japanese people usually know nothing about it, that's what causes conflict and lack of understanding between these two countries. I don't think every japanese person should apologize at all, because that's not what they did. But they should definitely be aware of history.
I still remember how Koreans reacted when I conveyed to them I'm Japanese back in I was living in the Philippines (The thought I was a local.). Back home, we hate each other, but we love each other abroad lol.
I really like this youtube interviewer and how he engages with people. The serious expression and he approaches questioning and listening to what people have to say rather than just dictate conversation or interject uncessary. Its a very rare breed these days. Real journalism. reminds of the vintage clips we see of reporters who would speak to the public to ask their thoughts on issues for news reports.
I've got to tell dear Korean fellows a thing. It's a misinformation that Japan doesn't teach us about what happened in Korea, Nanjing, Taiwan and a bunch of other places. It's rather a problem of how education works here. As pointed out very frequently, Japanese education is basically in a one-way manner, and students try to learn and memorise them just for exam. The biggest reasons why we seem ignorant of these history is because most students forget about them as soon as exams are done or they pass uni entrance, not because they don't teach. It's not the matter only on history. You can find Japanese who don't remember any maths things at all especially those who chose non-science-related faculties for college.
We are not the ones to be upset that Japanese students do not study seriously. I understand that you can't force something on a student. At the very least, their representative prime minister should not pay homage to past war criminals. And shouldn't we take the attitude of teaching in textbooks the false claim that Dokdo is being illegally occupied by countries that have committed damage and illegal acts due to colonial rule? Because Japanese representatives and government are taking these measures, Koreans cannot help but question their perception of history. I am a Korean in my late 20s who loves Japan so much that I have been overseas four times and to Osaka, Japan three times. I believe that Korea and Japan are countries that absolutely need cooperation to counter China, and for this, I believe that both peoples must have a correct historical understanding of the past.
Many Japanese like Korea. I've met so many wonderful people so far. At school in Japan, I learned that history should never be repeated. I love Korea and have been there eight times. I want to convey more good things about Korea.
Thankful due to past Korean War. Sometimes few soldiers make some scenes in korean night clubs (e.g. itaewon) but overall, Koreans are very gratitude with their service in S. Korea
It is very interesting to see how different the Japanese and Koreans are, even though they are the two closest peoples genetically, linguistically, and culturally on the planet. The differences between Japan and Korea show how diverse Asia is.
Though I comprehend the lingering animus harbored by certain individuals, particularly those of elder generations, it would be unjust to impose the guilt of ancestral misdeeds upon the current generation of Japanese, as if they bear sole responsibility for actions not of their own accord.
Interesting hearing the opinions from Korean people. I’m a foreigner to bother countries. Honestly, in general, I thought the Japanese were kind and considerate and the Koreans seemed rude 😅
Are you interviewing Native Koreans? Those two Korean girls weren't Koreans but Korean Americans (with their broken Korean) giving out a different vibe and viewpoint than what is that of a Korean. The man next to the pink-haired girl doesn't even sound like a Korean because he has a thick Japanese accent, implying that he isn't Korean or is but a Gyopo / Mixed Korean. My point is if you're to make a video of Koreans giving out their thoughts, you should ask their nationality and backgrounds first.
At 3:15, she says she doesn't think well of them, but what have today's people done to this country ? Will the present and future generations always have to carry the guilt of their predecessors when their actions had nothing to do with them? If every citizen of every country had to feel guilt or apologize for the mistakes made by their ancestors, we would never get out of this mess.
그래도 독일처럼 사과는 해야죠. 일본 정부가 진심 어린 사과를 해준다면 한국 사람들의 일본에 대한 인식이 훨씬 긍정적으로 변할 것입니다. 현재 일본 사람들이 한국을 식민지배한 건 아니지만 적어도 과거에 일본이 무슨 잘못을 저질렀는지에 대한 역사는 인식하고 있어야된다고 생각합니다. 그래야지 한일 관계는 한 발짝 나아갈 것이고요. 식민지배를 한 국가들은 항상 자신들이 저질렀던 짓을 유념하고 앞으로 다시는 그런 끔찍한 짓을 벌이지 않도록 반성해야 합니다.
@@user-pr8gq1dn3m I have no problem with the government apologizing, in fact, I'm all for it, I want them to do it and teach the young generations the horrible thing their people did in the past, however, I think asking every citizen to apologize for past crimes they didn't commit or even hate them as if they were the culprits is nonsense, it's going really too far
I can understand the injustice or animosity Koreans feel toward the Japanese from the history of Japanese brutality towards Koreans during their occupation in Korea. But what valid reason do the Japanese have for their animosity towards Korean? Isn't it due to the heavy guilt they carry inside their psyche? Even if their school history books lie about it, Japanese people are bound to find out the truth about their nation's past psychopathic acts. The guilt can only be resolved by acknowledging the evil that was committed by their ancestors and forgiving themselves.
I am South Korean and I like Japan except for the historical (WW2 etc.) and cultural (Anime etc.) things. When it comes to politeness, the Japanese are still far superior to the Koreans. Unlike politeness, South Korea is one of the best in the world in terms of maintaining public order along with Japan, so I think the gap has narrowed compared to 20 years ago. All the Japanese I met were very nice, and when I explained Japan's history of imperialism, they were embarrassed and apologized to me first and mourned my ancestors. They're not shameless, they're just ignorant of history. I think Japanese are one of the nicest people on the planet. Also, as a fellow Asian, I think I have benefited a lot from the good stereotypes about Asians that the Japanese have created in the West. For example, Asians are hard-working, clean, polite, and have excellent work ethic. If Japan had not existed and only the Chinese had been introduced to the West, this good stereotype would not have arisen. (Of course, there are many good stereotypes created by the Chinese, such as rich, good at math, educated elites, etc., but there seem to be more negative ones.) Moreover, the Japanese were the first to introduce East Asian culture to the West. They succeeded in making Westerners perceive our East Asian culture as "COOL". Thanks to this, Korean culture, which belongs to the same Sinosphere as Japan, was recognized as relatively familiar to people in the West, and it was able to quickly gain fame. If I had to pick one negative thing among the Asian stereotypes created by the Japanese, it would be that 'Asians are short'. The Japanese have been perceived as exceptionally short neighbors from China and Korea for thousands of years, while the Koreans and northern Chinese (Dongbei, Huabei, Inner Mongolia, etc.) are quite tall. (+ East Asia is the region with the highest average height in all of Asia.) I am 181cm (5'11) and no matter what group I belong to in South Korea, there was always at least one guy taller than me, and in high school I was 5th out of 28 boys in my class. In South Korea, very few people recognize me as 'tall person' apart from my grandparents, even though I'm taller than average. But when I went to Japan, almost all the men were much shorter than me and I often heard things like "you're tall" which I didn't hear often in South Korea. However, these are simply issues related to appearance and I think appearance is not that important. Japan, China, and Korea all have their own negative Asian appearance stereotypes. For example, Koreans have the smallest eyes and flat faces among these three countries (Koreans and Dongbei Chinese have more "Mongoloid" features). When I went to the US, I gathered with my S. Korean friends majoring in computer science with me (they are all taller than 6ft) and the Americans said to us, "I thought Asians were short.". The stereotype that 'Asians are short' was not particularly negative to us, and rather it gave us an opportunity to explain it to Americans, so it was not bad for me personally.
The girl at 3:02 is pretty and I kind of understand where she's coming from but there's something to consider. As a Filipino, the Philippines was occupied by Spain for more than 300 years and they did the same thing that Japan did to Korea, but in our history, it lasted longer but the difference is that we don't hold a grudge against Spain. That being said, I don't it's fair to think badly of Japanese people today for things their ancestors did several years ago.
It is completely different from the colonization of the East by Western countries and the colonization of Korea by Japan. Perhaps you can understand the history between Korea and Japan more deeply. And above all, Japan today is denying the terrible things it did before.
@@chandlerj4543 Call it what you will but the point is that Korea is not the only nation to experience hardship by another country in the past. I respect Korea like every other country but let's be brutally honest here: The only difference between Korea and these other nations is that some of these young Korean people are stuck here complaining about an event they never experienced firsthand and are demanding an apology from Japanese people who are not the ones responsible for what happened many years ago. Maybe that's why Japan has not apologized. So they hold a grudge and refuse to just let it go, but they can't swallow their pride and show gratitude where it's due. Because let's not forget the Battle of Yuldong, a time when Filipino soldiers (our grandfathers) won a major battle that turned the tide of the war and ultimately saved Korea. Even after that, some of my fellow Filipinos are mistreated in Korea and pay the price for Korean peoples' ignorance. Some do know about this true story, but what's the point of expressing gratitude to let these stories become lost in time and when words can't do it justice? If they want to pay their respects, we're not asking for a moment of silence, we're not asking for an apology, but to simply spread awareness so that we develop mutual respect. A small gesture, but if enough people do so, it goes a long way. I get that Korea had a rough history, but that doesn't mean they should take out their frustation on the innocent
You still don't know and you don't seem to understand. Koreans' anger toward Japan is not because of the terrible things the Japanese did 100 years ago. We know the fact that thhe Japanese who were the perpetrators at that time are not the Japanese today, and the Koreans who were the victims at that time are not the Koreans now. But the reason Koreans are angry is that Japan denies history itself and even makes fun of its victims, let alone reflect on what it has done. For example, Japanese insists a tons of Comfort women who lived and died as sexual slaves were not forcibly taken away by the Japanese military, but voluntarily participated prostitutes. It is not the Japanese of the past but the Japanese of the present who insult the hundreds of thousands of teenage girls who have died in sexual slavery due to this absurd distortion of history. Japan's evil deeds are not over and are still being carried out by the Japanese people today. The comfort women problem is just the tip of the iceberg. Since you are a Filipino, it is natural that you do not know much about things between Korea and Japan, and I understand. But I hope you don't rush into talking without knowing the details. Lastly, the country that is tied to the past is Japan, not Korea.
You have a point. I may not know exactly everything that happened in those days, but this anger still ties back to something that happened in the past, which is what a grudge is. If they know Japanese people today are not responsible for what happened, then what do they expect from Japan? Not trying to be offensive but even if they apologized, what exactly will that accomplish? Koreans can spend their time demanding an apology and but let's think about the impact that will have. I understand that Koreans are angry for having a rough history, but taking that rage out on innocent people, including Filipinos and other foreigners in Korea who faced discrimination there is unacceptable, whatever the reason may be. Is that truly the reputation you wish Koreans to have? That they are lowkey angry people who discriminate against innocent people and continue to hold negative attitudes? On a completely different note, if we talk about rushing in talking without knowing the details, let's not forget the time when #cancelkorea was a thing 2 years ago. Of course, it's not anymore, but back then, there were quite a few Koreans recklessly attacking us with nasty comments even though many of them go to the Philippines to learn English, the fact that many Koreans live there, and that almost nobody knows about the FIlipinos' contributions in the Korean War. If this part of their history is so important to them, how come so many Koreans still don't know that our grandfathers fought to save their land? Even the older generation didn't know about that time so I assume it was news to you as well. I assume that you're Korean and if so, there's one truth that you should all keep in mind: you, your friends, your family, and your country would likely not exist today if not for our relatives' heroism. Never forget that. If you want proof, here's your 5 minute history lesson: th-cam.com/video/JV1M8ry8YkU/w-d-xo.html Actions speak louder than words, after all. So unless you are all ungrateful and insincere for being all talk and no action, then prove your gratitude by sharing the truth.
@@michaelrespicio5683 This is so touched to reminding of all the contributes for Korean War. As you stated, Korean shouldn’t forget the countries like Philippine’s contributions for their land, not to repeating the same history again. But at the same time, Korean should also not to forget the history of colonization, not to repeating that again. Ignoring the histories could affect the world into a massive depressions like causing war again, political act of retaliation or etcetera. And I am wondering if Korean historical educations include all the details like which countries support them for what exact purposes and how they gratitude for those services in nowadays (Or are they?) I think this is Really important to know how could they were able to preserved their lands and all the histories of invasions for not to repeat but also remember it could affect the power of country in the future as well.
어쨋든 전쟁범죄국의 전쟁범죄자를 모시는 야스쿠니 신사참배도 하고있고 욱일기들고 전쟁범죄에대해 미화하고 자랑스러워하니 문제가 많다고 봐야지. 미국에 선제 공격으로 진주만을 습격하고 그 댓가로 도쿄대공습 핵폭탄 2방을 얻어 맞을동안 일본은 잘못을 뉘우치거나 항복할 생각이 없었음.
Relations between Korea and Japan cannot be differentiated between a mere colonized state and a colony state. Much more complex issues are intertwined.
@@UniqueKwon Japanese now are not responsible for the actions of their forefathers just like Germans aren't responsible for actions of their country in WW2.
Try to be happy. Try not to hold grudges. Let go of the past. Move forward. Sincerely a Korean American struggling to move forward, struggling to let go of the past, and holding so many grudges, though trying to be happy despite it all.
You have to remember the effect being filmed has on these answers. Anyone who’s lived in South Korea will have heard the stuff Koreans say about the Japanese, and it isn’t ‘how kind they are’ lol. That’s an issue to be aware of with these videos: Koreans are unlikely to say candid stuff about controversial topics while on camera, and answers will be skewed towards giving ‘virtuous’ answers.
실제로 일본과 한국의 역사적 문제가 있긴 있습니다. 독일은 세계대전 때의 행동을 전 세계에 반성하는데 왜 일본은 떳떳하게 생각하나요..? 확실히 영상의 내용처럼 요즘 Z세대들에게 일본의 이미지가 좋아졌지만 다른 나라를 침략하고 식민지화 했던 걸 어떻게 합리화 할 수 있는 겁니까? 독일은 이미 반성했는데.
Nah I think they answered with honesty. The emotional grudge between Korea and Japan mostly faded as generations passed. However, if you ask people who are older, you'll get a completely different response.
When she was talking about her parents talking about the old stories of Japan and Korea as soon as she said 1910, I kept thinking of Kim's convenience. That's still weirds me out though cuz my folks never spoke bad about the Japanese and I'm second generation.
The Korean opposition party, Minjoo Political Party is still very hard to brainwash people to have negative views on Japan but not to North Korea and PRC.
The YOUTH of both countries may well not know enough to even try to understand, though I think the Korean youth know more about what happened in the war than the other way around. Ask one hundred young Japanese about "the rape of Nanking", then ask 100 Koreans about it, that would tell you something. Next, compare what each group SAY happened there.
Japanese know well that "the r*pe of Nanking" is a fiction novel wrote by Chinese. Please do not blindly accept political propaganda by anti-Japan countries.

Could you do a street interview asking people about the Battle of Yultong? I'm Filipino and it's surprising that Koreans do not fully know that our grandfathers won this major battle which helped turn the tide of the war. th-cam.com/video/JV1M8ry8YkU/w-d-xo.html It's hard to describe the feeling of knowing that many Koreans go about their daily lives without knowing about this story and if they were truly grateful for their efforts, than prove it by sharing these kinds of videos and spread the truth. That's all we ask and is probably not too much. By not doing so, it makes them come across as somewhat ungrateful and insincere by expressing gratitude and not showing it in a rather simple way.
@@_joostin_ Are you Korean? That's cool to hear there were Filipinas in your class! Anyway keep in mind, I'm not trying to offend you guys. I respect Koreans like everyone else. I just want to spread awareness because I'm tired of hearing about Filipinos experiencing discrimination in Korea by people who do not know better. It seems like not many people know about the Filipinos' efforts in that battle and even if some do, they don't share it or spread awareness even though it's important, and it makes Koreans seem like ungrateful and insincere people for being all talk and no action, like they're embarassed for being saved by a "lesser country" back then. If more people did share the facts, the discrimination would stop and there would be more respect for each other, which is the goal. I don't think it's fair if school doesn't teach about the fact that without such heroic efforts, you would probably not have a home, and you, your family and friends might not be here. And if you guys want to pay respects to our grandfathers who saved it, then prove your gratitude by spreading awareness and share the video I linked. There's not much I can do alone, but Koreans should mostly be the ones to spread awareness because it was an event on their land and they will listen to each other more than someone like me who they probably look down on and refuse to take seriously
@@_joostin_ 만나서 반가워요, 친구! I like to try learning different languages. I tried Korean but it's kind of tough...like the Japanese guy (I think he's Japanese) here in this video is way better than me 😅 But anyway, you seem very open-minded and a great example to follow! And by the way, your English is fantastic! And I agree that nations, like people, can change. So when the girl said she doesn't like Japan, well...she's pretty but I was saying in another comment that I don't think it's fair to be negative about a country and the people today for stuff their ancestors did many years ago. Japan also has history in the Philippines just like Korea, but we don't have a grudge against them. I've met some Japanese people and they are not at all the brutes that people say they were many decades ago. They are quite kind and polite, just like some Koreans and many other people. I say this because being negative about an entire group of people just because of something like ethnicity or skin color is unfair and ultimately it's no good. It's fine to not like jerks because that one person did something bad, regardless of the nationality, but there are many good people in the world who understand that we should treat others the way we want to be treated
@@_joostin_ Wow you know "salamat"! Walang anuman, pare! That means "you're welcome". In our language, pare is hard to translate and I definitely do not know the Korean term. It's like...you know how in English some people say "what's up, man?". It means man in this case. It's like an informal way for guy friends to address each other. If you're actually a girl/woman, please forgive me. It's hard to tell who we interact with here in the comments section 😅 So are the subtitles accurate? I can read Hangul fine but when it comes to listening to Korean, I'm totally lost. It's partly because I don't know that many words yet but also because it sounds really fast, at least when most people talk. Sometimes when there are subtitles on the screen, there can be a word that I actually know, but the way they say it, to me, is hard to catch. But yes, we are on the same wavelength here. It's is absolutely fine to be proud of your own culture like maybe that girl is and many Koreans, but some people take it too far, I think. I don't know if you remember around 2 years ago when a Filipina, Bella Poarch, "accidentally" revealed a tattoo on her arm that looks kind of like the Japanese flag back in those days. Somehow Koreans noticed that and they really roasted online, but some Koreans took it too far and insulted us Filipinos in general, calling us stupid and uneducated for not knowing about that and being insensitive even though it's kind of unrealistic to expect everyone to know the history of every country in great detail. Because even Koreans were unaware of Filipinos in the Battle of Yuldong, which, by the way, I would appreciate if you guys actually spread awareness like I mentioned before. Filipinos brought it up and that was like the peace call to stop the bickering. If knowing the history is important, then surely it is not too late to learn about that battle. To be fair, I do feel bad that Korean people went through those hard times. That being said, there was one guy in particular on TH-cam, jitler, unless he got banned, changed his name or something, but he heard about this whole thing and he actually went out of his way to film himself spitting on our flag, stepping on it and even ripping it. Of course, he tried to trigger us and it worked for the most part. Most of us made fun of him a few days later though. He later posted a so-called "apology" which was in Korean, but somebody translated it and he calls himself a real Korean patriot or something which is proof he's delusional. Truthfully, I actually would like to visit Korea and of course meet more Korean people because I have a lot of international friends. But some things I'm afraid of are hanging out with Japanese and Korean people at the same time because even though Filipinos respect everyone including Japanese and Koreans, I'm afraid of being a "traitor" for hanging out with people from one group or the other even though we can choose our friends. We don't like confrontation but we also don't like to see our friends fight. Also not sure is people there still use "FIlipino" as an insult towards those with more-tanned skin because not all of us have that. Also still not sure if they demonize the Philippines, calling it dangerous even though Koreans are actually the largest tourist group there and some are born/raised there and even live there which is pretty cool, but it's scary to think what our "friends" really think of us behind the scenes because we also are not really fans of gossip and spreading rumors. Suffice to say if you befriend a Filipino, you basically have a friend for life, We are family-oriented so we treat friends like family, and so getting betrayed in any sort of way, especially since we respect Koreans but when it's not reciprocated, it really sucks
@@_joostin_ Hey sorry for my absence. I've been terribly sick for the last 2 days so I wasn't able to reply. I'm doing much better now if you're wondering. And by the way, don't worry about typing a lot, this conversation is great. I have definitely heard of Valorant. Sadly, I don't play the game because I doubt my PC can handle it, and also because I'm more of a console gamer, like I play Switch when I can, mainly Monster Hunter nowadays which is a JRPG which are my favorite type of game. I've heard of that character, Neon. She has a Filipina voice actress which is really cool. Most Filipino actors go into live-action acting and not much voice acting. As for the point about Hangeul, yes it's one the simpler alphabets out there. It wasn't easy to learn at first, but then I noticed something about the letters that makes them easy to recognize. And thanks for the words of encouragement. I most certainly will not give up! Your point about nationalism is spot on. It's probably less of a problem in Southeast Asia because a lot of Filipinos, as an example, work in a lot of different countries like Saudi Arabia and so we tend to be very open-minded when abroad. There are more Filipinos in Saudi than other countries like Canada, so some Arabs speak Tagalog which is really cool but there is also mutual respect between Filipinos and Arabs, likely because a lot of Filipinos there are nurses. With regards to Bella, she apologized for the incident and said she would have the tattoo removed which she probably has by now. Of course, set us off was when some people just wouldn't let it go and continued to harass us, almost like kicking us while we're down. I will admit it almost tainted our image of Korea because we didn't understand why some were quick to forgive and others kept attacking us, not to mention looking up to a country that looks down on others including ourselves, although we should remember that not everyone is that hostile which must have saved us from attacking them harshly in return. Admittedly we sort of did, but we never start fights with others and we were just defending ourselves in all fairness. And I was reminded of a documentary about how the Philippines saved a lot of Jews during the Holocaust, but I can't recall the title. Shouldn't be too hard to find though. I will definitely keep your words in mind when visiting Korea. It is still unfortunate that the media tries to negatively portray Japanese people but a good thing that it's not actually the case. And yes, you're right, I guess ignoring anyone trying to tell me off for hanging out with Japanese people the the best way to go. Truth be told, one of my best friends is Japanese, but he currently lives in Japan. Also one of my favorite bands, One Ok Rock, is Japanese and they have fan bases in a lot of countries including Korea which is pretty cool. There are even some videos online of them performing there so hopefully this rivalry comes to an end at some point. It still kind of hurts to hear that a lot of these Korean nationalists look down on SEA and essentially try to bully us for some reason even though a lot of us support them. The ones who probably don't are the ones living in SEA countries and also because a lot of them learn English in the Philippines because it's cheaper, and also because, apparently, the beaches are nicer (no offense, that's just what I heard them say). Even still, these people are probably doing more harm to Korea's reputation than good. I mean, what good comes from bullying other countries? And also the Japan-Korea rivalry sometimes gets out of hand. I was named after him, but it makes me think of Michael Jackson's song "Beat It" where some of the lyrics go like "No one wants to be defeated, showin' how funky and strong is your fight, it doesn't matter who's wrong or right, just beat it". Totally different context but just a random thought 😅, but in the music video, MJ basically stops a gang war and gets them on the same side as shown by everyone following his lead. Hopefully that ends up being Japan and Korea one day. To your last point about the battle of Yultong, yes the Philippines was the first Asian country to respond. And yes, if not for the heroic efforts of our grandfathers, who knows what Korea would be like today. This is why I'm trying to spread awareness to other Korean people to stop the discrimination they have for us. To do that, I tried emailing the owner of a Korean learning site a few weeks ago. I think he's a Canadian living in Korea, married to a Korean, and I tried explaining the events of the Battle of Yultong and how I was trying to stop the discrimination that some Filipinos experience there. Unsurprisingly, I got no response, at least not yet. Either because it went straight to spam or because he didn't believe me even though I tried including proof and he probably somehow misinterpreted my honest message as being harmful to Koreans which I wasn't. I explained, honestly, that everybody living in Korea including himself, his wife, his friends, his children, the nationalists, and also you, my friend, all have a country to call home thanks to the efforts of our the allied forces and also our grandparents. Many of whom are no longer here, but the only way to show gratitude to them and pay respects is by sharing the facts. Simply saying thanks to us young people doesn't mean much since we're not the ones who fought in the war. I was counting on his help but now I guess I need to try finding another way to spread the word.
@@_joostin_ Thank you for your encouraging words! Yes, I'm doing a lot better but I do appreciate the concern. That's cool to hear we are both gamers, indeed! It's unfortunate that you have less time for it because of school, but understandable. I've been there and it feels weird to have less time for something you enjoy. It's like cutting something off and letting it go, at least for some time. I've also played Breath of the Wild and it's one of my favorites too. Pokemon Arceus and Metroid Dread are also quite popular. And sometimes while playing Monster Hunter (the latest one on the Switch is called Monster Hunter Rise), there are some Korean players online. Not very common to see them but they are there. The only international players I see when I am online are Spanish-speaking, mostly Japanese, sometimes Korean, and Mandarin-speaking players. It's also nice to hear that Japanese consoles and games have a thriving market there in Korea. I didn't know that about Turkey. I knew they fought in the war but it's still pretty nice to hear that they took care of Korean people and the children at the time. It would be interesting to see the video. Yes, it is a little strange that Korea and the Philippines do not share the same kind of relationship as Korea has with Turkey. But I suppose it's fine now where things are neutral. This is better than hostility from both sides though. It's unfortunate that younger people do not care much about history and see it as just a boring subject. I can't blame the students however. When it comes to learning a subject, it's not the subject itself, but how one goes about learning it. The matter reminds me that schools need to find ways to make these subjects relevant, or better yet, keep students curious in a world that is constantly changing. It seems to be a problem around the world with students; simply forcing information down their throats doesn't really work. Some students will find certain subjects more relevant to their lives than other ones, and every student will have differing opinions on the relevance of a subject to THEIR life. In my opinion, there should be a little more freedom and flexibility for even high-school students to choose what interests them instead of learning what they will forget eventually. To someone who will become a graphic designer, science may not be as relevant to them as someone who will become an engineer. The graphic designer may not even remember much, if anything at all, from science class. At the same time, having some basic knowledge such as basic math, language proficiency, and literacy, ethics, and computer skills are all useful. I appreciate that you wish to help me out on my mission to spread awareness of the Filipinos' involvement in the war. As for the Korean learning site owner, I only knew them for their site which gives Korean learners a free resource. Upon checking, it turns out they have a following on TH-cam, which I somehow missed. At the time of writing, they have 86 throusand subs but haven't uploaded anythng in about a year. They have their email up on their site which I found but should have known I'd get no response. I was kidding myself thinking I'd be seen and heard, wasting all that time drafting the message explaining everything. Even on TH-cam, hardly anyone notices my comments even if there are only 10 others. And hardly anyone responds to email nowadays it seems. If it doesn't end up in the spam, we're lucky to have some of our messages seen. I've definitely heard of Reddit, and I should get into it to join discussions. As for the suggestion to create my own content, this has nothing to do with my mission, but I'm actually working on a project right now intended for beginners of Japanese. Hopefully this is not set anyone off the wrong way, but in a previous comment in our converrsation, I mentioned how I like to learn other languages whenever I can. Well, I actually know Japanese fairly well; it's my best foreign language and I speak it way better than Korean even though I should try to get back into the swings of things. This project will involve helping beginners ease their way into the language through storytelling (I write everything and have no help whatsoever) and creating content on a bunch of social media platforms. To make the story come to life, I took anime-style drawing courses and have drawing of my characters on paper, all from imagination. One of my characters plays guitar, which I also do. I plan on creating original pieces for the sake of this project and playing the instrument somehow helps when I hit writer's block which I never expected I'd experience but as a writer, it's inevitible but overcoming it for a greater purpose makes it worth the effort.
Korean President Syngman Rhee ignored the MacArthur line and forcefully included Takeshima into South Korean territory before the Sanfrancisco treaty was signed , which violated the international law and caught Japanese fishermen fishing around the island and killed them. On the other hand, Korea blamed Russia for invading some part of Ukrarine. Whats the difference between them? Many people dont know Korea is not a victim but a perpetrator in WW2. Many Korean volunteered for Japanese army and committed misdeeds together but Korea still whitewash these facts under the rug and pretend to be a victim. Its quite different from Austria who was forcefully annexed by Nazi and many Austrians volunteered for Nazi but after the war, Austria admitted they are not a victim but a perpetrator and apologized for that. During Vietnam war .Korean servicemen raped and mistreated Vietnamese but NEVR apologize nor compensate for their misdeeds. We shouldn't forgive Korean's double standard. th-cam.com/video/VjZptOK9cws/w-d-xo.html

Many Koreans are aware of the history of Japanese invasion and the fact that Dokdo is Korean territory, but when someone asks them about the reasons, they seem unable to explain it well. It would be great if they could study and articulate it accurately. However, considering that everyone's lives are busy, it might be difficult to find time for studying. It's simple. There are historical documents that prove Dokdo is Korean territory, and official Japanese documents that record Dokdo as Korean land also exist. During the Russia-Japanese War, Dokdo became strategically important, so Japan incorporated it as their own land. That was in 1904, before the outbreak of World War I. However, Japan was defeated in World War II. Interestingly, Korea became a Japanese colony before World War II, but the Allied Powers specifically stated in the agreement to grant Korea independence that the entire Korean Peninsula and its surrounding islands should be returned to Korea. In the process, Japan employed another trickery. At the time, Japan lobbied to make the wording of the agreement ambiguous. Nevertheless, there are still records in the documents clearly indicating that Dokdo was returned. The issue with Japan cannot be simply seen as a matter of the past. The first act of Japan's invasion of Korea was the seizure of Dokdo. Yet, even now, they claim that Dokdo is Japanese territory. This is not just a problem of historical distortion but a continuation of territorial aggression. They deny not only the ongoing territorial aggression by Japan but also the past forced labor of Korean people. Moreover, they have even changed the terminology. Not to mention the denial of the comfort women issue. If a perpetrator of school violence, upon becoming an adult, denies their past actions and continues to torment their victims, can we really say that the perpetrator and the victim can have a shared future?
good interviewed, and yeah. Japan doesn't teach much about their dark history. on your next show, go to young Japanese and ask what they know about ww2, most of them will tell you. the only thing they know was U.S drop atomic bombs on them because the U.S was racist. keep up the good work.
Maybe because they're not good at acknowling anything in general, I'm in Japan and I've tried to have these kinda of conversations with my Japanese friend, I could tell that he was getting offended but I wanted the truth, I'm a little concerned that everyone and everything must look good in the light, but it's plain to see the Truth of any event, in the west we call this being dishonest,but over here it's about keeping your dignity, or not looking bad, I'm so confused by all this even the Tatemae ( read the air ) but I do think that the Japanese are very kind and helpful people, but I love keeping it real knowing where you stand at all times is very important
@@trusttruth9916 Yeah, its true about keeping your dignity, and saving face. And there is a saying that history is written by winners, so i know well Japan will not teach anything about history that makes them look bad. i guess its the culture aspect of it.
@@asdfghjjhgf Well many Historians talk about wars there are many war movies battles etc etc shown on TV even commiserations memorials et etc, I like the way you inserted the word suddenly Lol Lets not pretend
Just by looking at the comments here, you can see how low historical awareness of past atrocities is. Japan clearly has an obligation to inform the Japanese people of its actions in much greater depth and detail, and that should be the first step in an apology. In a video interviewing Japanese locals, most of their perceptions of the past stopped at the level of Japanese colonial rule. I think the government's attitude of trying to end the comfort women issue based on 1 billion yen in compensation is also a very disgusting measure. This has nothing to do with the amount of money. They must continuously apologize to those who lost. The stance is not, “I’ll give you money, so stop talking.” Also, they are trying to put aside their historical mistakes and turn Dokdo into a territorial dispute. Looking at past historical records, there is clearly a record in which Japan clearly stated that Dokdo is a Korean island, and it is clear that it is currently Korean land, but they are trying to formalize such a dispute internationally at the International Court of Justice. Of course Korea will refuse. Why? Because it is natural that it is Korean land. However, they use those obvious reasons and facts to strengthen the argument that Dokdo is a disputed area and Japanese territory. Conversely, if Korea publishes false claims in its history books that Tsushima Island is Korean territory and that Japan has illegally occupied Tsushima Island for more than ten years and asks the International Court of Justice to make a judgment on it, Japan will make it official so that Tsushima Island can be formalized as an international dispute area. Would you accept it? Their representative, the Japanese Prime Minister, is taking a very uncivilized stance against Japanese war criminals by visiting a shrine every year and bringing the Rising Sun flag, a symbol of Japanese imperialism, to sports stadiums. What kind of crazy apologist would have an attitude like this?

Korea is the only one country I have ever been to,I was taken to a history museum and I saw many anti-Japanese paintings of students on the walls.It was an kinda shocking event,however people were nice and foods were great.love from japan and sorry for my broken English
Former US president Hebert Hoover wrote in his book "Freedom Betrayed" about the Japanese occupation of South Korea History Here is what is written on page 737 and 738 of Mr. Hoover’s book: I first visited Korea in 1909, to advise some Japanese Industrialists on engineering matters. The Korean people at that time were in the most disheartening condition that I had witnessed in any part of Asia. There was little law and order. The masses were underfed, under-clothed, under housed and under equipped. There was no sanitation, and filth and squalor enveloped the whole countryside. The roads were hardly passable, and there were scant communication or educational facilities. Scarcely a tree broke the dismal landscape. Thieves and bandits seemed to be unrestrained. During the thirty-five years of Japanese control, the life of the Korean people was revolutionized. Beginning with this most unpromising human material, the Japanese established order, built harbors, railways, roads and communications, good public buildings, and greatly improved housing. They established sanitation and taught better methods of agriculture. They built immense fertilizer factories in North Korea which lifted the people’s food supplies to reasonable levels. They reforested the bleak hills. They established a general system of education and the development of skills. Even dusty, drab and filthy clothing had been replace with clean bright colors. The Koreans, compared to the Japanese, were poor at administration and business. Whether for this reason or by deliberate action, the Japanese filled all major economic and governmental positions. Thus, in 1948, when they finally achieved self-government, the Koreans were little prepared for it.”
Hope you get a same shock of what Japanese did to other countries in history and how still the government and right wings are trying to avoid the topic or even blaming the victim countries. The paintings you saw at the museum would never beat what anti-Korea mentality in Japan.
these paintings are what japanese should exhibit in their museum. learn from germany. i went to many german museums and exhibitions displaying the warcrimes of germans. some might thnk these actions would damage gemanys image but in contrary. germany is much respected for their responsible handling of historical issues.
From an American perspective, both South Korea and Japan are important allies. We know about the historic relationship between the two countries but hope that those difficulties can be overcome and left in the past. Despite having had bitter conflicts with Japan and Vietnam (and also with Germany and Italy) in the past 100 years, current generations of Americans bear little or no animosity towards those countries. This is especially true for the millennials and "Gen Z" Americans, who view those conflicts as historical and no longer relevant. For us, time is a great healer, and we usually do not bear grudges beyond 10-20 years or so.
Yes, but no matter how close you feel to Japan, the United States should not apologize for dropping the atomic bomb. The Japanese are war criminals who planned a suicide attack at Pearl Harbor. War criminals who planned to indiscriminately bomb the entire United States by loading balloon bombs with biological and biological weapons developed through Unit 731 He is enshrined in Yasukuni Shrine and called the "Hero's Soul", and the Prime Minister makes an official visit every year. Every year, in front of Yasukuni Shrine, Japanese people dressed in kamikaze Imperial Japanese military uniforms gather and chant “Ten no Heika Banzai.” Under the protection of the police. However, every time they try to host or invite the G20 or G7 to Hiroshima, they only appeal about the damage they have suffered. The United States doesn't seem to be very interested in Asia because there are too many things happening around the world, and it doesn't seem to be very interested in Japan calling the Pearl Harbor terrorists heroes behind their backs.
@@BondiBeache I feel like the time for war trials is long past. No one alive in Japan today is responsible for that past. And it does no good to perpetuate bad feelings into future generations. Even more, most Japanese people of today bear no resemblance to the aggressive culture that dominated Japan before the war. The whole purpose of war is to resolve conflict. You don't perpetuate the conflict after you have won it.
Man, c'mon. Even if it is representative, we cannot expect anyone there to be truthful when they are being filmed. Neither Seoul nor Tokyo are multicultural. Their exposure to Japanese people is negligible. You wouldn't expect random, young Koreans to have real exposure to Japanese. Those who've had real exposure would then be put to a test. And no, visiting Japan does not mean you know Japanese people. You are just a tourist. If you go to Harry Potter World, you don't know what the racial relations between Muggles and Wizards are like. If you were to actively live there, you might realize how much you are discriminated against
As a Korean, what I would like to ask the Japanese people is not to equate individuals with the government. Individuals and governments are separate. No one hates Japanese born today. Because they have no sin. Our demands are demands of the Japanese government. If there's anything we want from each Japanese citizen, it's just that we want them to be good people. What we want from the Japanese government is reflection. Reflection is not something that is forced by someone else or an apology through negotiation. It is to recognize a mistake in one's own thoughts and to regret and repent in one's own heart. People who reflect in this way have a consistent attitude. We make our own laws before anyone else asks us to, and we strive to avoid repeating this. They include more information about their mistakes in their textbooks than other countries, allowing future generations to recognize their mistakes and discuss what they can do to avoid repeating them. But Japan's attitude continues to change. This allows us to feel and know that there is no reflection. Although he has apologized several times, it continues to be denied and denied again and again. It is said that war criminals are enshrined at Yasukuni Shrine and prayed to avoid repeating the tragedy, but war criminals are called "spirits of heroes" and people wear military uniforms from the Japanese Empire in front of Yasukuni and hold their swords high and shout "Tennoheika Banzai". Anyone who looks at it can see that its intention is not penance. Also, at some point, Japan's war crimes were drastically reduced or deleted from textbooks due to Japan's self-destructive view of history. At the same time, on the day of the atomic bomb, we appeal to the world to hope that the tragedy will not be repeated again. But is that just what they want for the damage they have suffered? If they don't know what they did wrong, how can they know how to avoid repeating it? It is impossible to reflect on what you do not know. Many Japanese far-right say their war crimes were solved with treaties or money. But that's not true. War crimes have never been accurately acknowledged in any treaty, and the victims' demands are not centered around money. Even when the Korean government offered to give them the money instead, they refused. What they want is reflection. What all affected countries expect from the Japanese government is also reflection. Asking for reflection on mistakes is just a natural request. We make this demand of ourselves too. We can see that numerous Korean films criticize the Korean government for its mistakes and demand reflection. This is because the people are the owners of the country. I know that Japanese people are kind. Then you are on the same side as us, not on the side of wrong government policies. It is not right for good people to support the glorification and cover-up of crimes. Please do not equate yourself with the government. It is time to break away from totalitarianism. We don't hate the Japanese. Rather, I would like to become friends. Because he is a good person. But at the same time, because he is a good person, he must criticize the view of history that is part of the Japanese government. It is not a criticism of individual Japanese people, nor is it hatred. This is a common sense request. I don't want to hear that I apologized multiple times by repeating "I'm sorry," "I'm not sorry," "I'm sorry," "I'm not sorry," "I'm sorry," and "I'm not sorry." I don't want to hear that it was paid under the title of "independence congratulatory money" and that it was "compensation given as an apology." If the Ilbo government does not reflect, it will continue to receive demands from the affected countries. This is because failure to reflect will support the Japanese government's continued actions of calling war criminals heroes and trying to cover up history.
I would say to blame Japan as colonizers is kind of odd, but also Korea did the same thing and yet is focusing on Laincourt on who Laincourt belongs to the Japanese call it Takeshima and Koreans call it Dokdo, another territorial dispute is Tsushima on what Koreans call it Daemado I will say that the Unification of Korea will be Korea will be united under a European power that renounce being part of the European Union and quit being part of the European Union because of changes. Probably the president of South Korea talk to Charles III about Korean Unification as the saying goes if you can’t beat them, join them as Koreans say that the Japanese colonize their land and they can’t beat the Japanese that means can’t beat them but probably unify under the UK as in join them of colonizers that one day that Korea be united both North and South, that the Japanese will have something in common with Argentina. That means the Sea of Japan in 99% of the world’s maps and textbooks will be called East Sea and Japan will be the only country in the world to have their textbooks and maps to have the name Sea of Japan instead of East Sea. This will be crucial once the Union Jack raises up in Tsushima it will be called Daemado and their Korea is unified so this will be called worldwide. 99% of the world will have the name of these areas that Japan to be the only 1% to have these names: Sea of Japan becomes East Sea according to the 99% of the world will recognize as. Laincourt will be recognize as Dokodo according to the 99% of the world will recognize as but 1% of the world recognize it as Takeshima where the 1% resides in Japan. 99% of the world will recognize Tsushima as Daemado that only the 1% who resides in Japan will recognize the area as Tsushima. All it comes down to 98% that the other 1% will be Argentina as to what relates to Japan to firmly agree with Argentina on something in common. All this will happen by the time both North and South Korea unites and this happens a Korean will go to London, England without a passport.
한국인으로서 일본인들에게 부탁하고 싶은 점은 개인과 정부를 동일시하지 말라는 것입니다. 개인과 정부는 별개입니다. 어느 누구도 현재에 태어난 일본인을 미워하지 않습니다. 왜냐하면 그들은 아무런 죄도 없기 때문입니다. 우리의 요구는 일본정부에 대한 요구입니다. 우리가 일본국민 개인에게 바라는 것이 있다면, 그것은 단지 착한 사람으로 있어주길 바라는 것 뿐입니다. 우리가 일본정부에게 바라는것은 반성입니다. 반성이라는 것은 다른 누군가에 의해 강요되거나 협상을 통해 사죄하거나 그런것이 아닙니다. 스스로의 생각으로 잘못임을 인지하고 스스로의 마음으로 뉘우치고 후회하는 것입니다. 이렇게 반성한 사람은 태도가 일관됩니다. 다른 누군가가 요구하기 전에 스스로 법을 만들고 이것을 반복하지 않기 위해 노력합니다. 스스로 교과서에 다른 나라보다 더 많은 분량을 잘못에 대해 탑재하여 후손들에게 자신들의 잘못이 무엇인지 인지하게 하고 그것을 반복하지 않기위해 어떻게 해야하는지 토론하게 합니다. 하지만 일본은 태도가 계속해서 변합니다. 이것은 반성하지 않았다는 것을 우리가 느낄 수 있게 해주며 알수있게 해줍니다. 여러번 사죄했다고 하지만 그것은 또한 계속해서 부인되고 또 부인됩니다. 전쟁범죄자들을 야스쿠니 신사에 모셔놓고 참배하며 비극을 반복하지 않기위한 기도라고 하지만, 전범들을 "영웅의 영혼"이라 부르며 야스쿠니 앞에서 일본제국 시절 군복을 입고 칼을 높게 들고 "덴노헤이카 반자이"라고 외치는 것을 보면 누구나 그것의 의도가 참회가 아니라는걸 눈치챌 수 있습니다. 또한 일본은 자학사관이라는 이유로 어느 순간 일본의 전쟁범죄를 교과서에서 대폭 축소하거나 삭제시켰습니다. 그러면서 원폭의 날에는 비극이 또다시 반복되지 않기를 바란다고 기원하며 전세계에 호소합니다. 하지만 그것은 자신들이 받은 피해에 대해서만 바라는 것일까요? 자신들이 무엇을 잘못했는지 모르는데 어떻게 반복되지 않는 방법을 알 수 있을까요? 모르는것에 대해 반성하는것은 불가능 합니다. 많은 일본극우들은 자신들의 전쟁범죄가 조약이나 돈으로 해결되었다고 말합니다. 하지만 그것은 사실과 다릅니다. 그 어떤 조약에서도 전쟁범죄 사실을 정확히 인정한 적이 없으며, 피해자들의 요구 또한 돈이 핵심이 아닙니다. 한국정부가 대신 그 돈을 준다고 제시해도 그들은 거절했습니다. 그들이 원하는건 반성입니다. 모든 피해국가들이 일본정부에 바라는것도 반성입니다. 잘못한 부분에 대해서 반성을 요구하는 것은 지극히 당연한 요구일 뿐입니다. 우리는 스스로에게도 이러한 요구를 합니다. 수많은 한국영화들이 한국정부의 잘못에 대해서도 비난하고 반성을 요구하는 것을 볼 수 있습니다. 국가의 주인은 국민이기 때문입니다. 일본국민들이 착하다는 것을 알고있습니다. 그렇다면 당신들은 우리와 같은 편이지 잘못된 정부정책의 편이 아닙니다. 착한 사람이 범죄에 대한 미화와 은폐를 찬성하는 것은 맞지않습니다. 당신을 정부와 동일시 하지 마시기 바랍니다. 전체주의에서 벗어나야할 시기입니다. 우리는 일본인을 증오하지 않습니다. 오히려 친해지고 싶습니다. 같은 착한 사람이기 때문입니다. 하지만 동시에 착한 사람이기 때문에 일본정부의 어느 한 부분인 역사관에 대해 비난을 해야합니다. 그것은 일본인 개인에 대한 비난이 아니며 증오도 아닙니다. 상식적인 요구입니다. "미안하다", "미안하지않다", "미안하다", "미안하지않다", "미안하다", "미안하지않다"를 반복해놓고 여러번 사죄했다는 말을 듣고싶지 않습니다. "독립축하금"이라는 제목으로 지급해놓고 "사죄의 의미로 전달한 보상금"이었다는 말을 듣고싶지 않습니다. 일보정부가 반성하지 않는다면 계속해서 피해국가로부터 요구받을 것 입니다. 반성하지 않음으로 인해 일본정부는 계속해서 전범을 영웅이라 부르고 역사를 은폐하려고 하는 행동이 뒷받침될 것이기 때문입니다.

Perspectives are different for Korean-Americans vs Native Koreans. *Korean-Americans weren't raised in Korea*...They wouldn't truly understand Eastern politics and it doesn't directly affect them as it does Native Koreans (Koreans who actually live in Korea)...So, obviously, Korean-Americans don't have general animosity towards Japan.
The young koreans are a generation that did not directly experience the Japanese colonial period. Nevertheless, the reason they have a certain level of hostility toward Japan comes from the social atmosphere and education. Korean Americans are not Koreans.
I am a fourth generation Korean living in Japan. I asked my great-grandparents about the war, and they and many of my hometown acquaintances told me that they were not forcibly taken away from their homes. They fled to the safety of Japan.

yeah a lot of koreans like japan but still Japan should stop hiding what actually happened in the past to its own people.
because koreans are aware of what happened while japanese people usually know nothing about it, that's what causes conflict and lack of understanding between these two countries.
I don't think every japanese person should apologize at all, because that's not what they did. But they should definitely be aware of history.

I've got to tell dear Korean fellows a thing.
It's a misinformation that Japan doesn't teach us about what happened in Korea, Nanjing, Taiwan and a bunch of other places. It's rather a problem of how education works here. As pointed out very frequently, Japanese education is basically in a one-way manner, and students try to learn and memorise them just for exam. The biggest reasons why we seem ignorant of these history is because most students forget about them as soon as exams are done or they pass uni entrance, not because they don't teach. It's not the matter only on history. You can find Japanese who don't remember any maths things at all especially those who chose non-science-related faculties for college.
We are not the ones to be upset that Japanese students do not study seriously. I understand that you can't force something on a student.
At the very least, their representative prime minister should not pay homage to past war criminals. And shouldn't we take the attitude of teaching in textbooks the false claim that Dokdo is being illegally occupied by countries that have committed damage and illegal acts due to colonial rule?
Because Japanese representatives and government are taking these measures, Koreans cannot help but question their perception of history.
I am a Korean in my late 20s who loves Japan so much that I have been overseas four times and to Osaka, Japan three times.
I believe that Korea and Japan are countries that absolutely need cooperation to counter China, and for this, I believe that both peoples must have a correct historical understanding of the past.

んー、韓国はkpopとかkdramaとか漫画とかも最近すごい人気だけど文化面で韓国好きでもやっぱり文化とは別で考えてるから嫌いな人の方が多いですよ、俺は10代でこの問題についてずっと考えてるけど韓国の良さは理解してても大抵の日本人は生理的に無理だって人が多いと思う、理由は簡単で国旗を燃やす動画だったり在日韓国人や旅行客の犯罪、反日教育、理由を出すとキリないけど、日本人は過去の過ちはすでに清算して謝罪も済んでるのに反日的な政治体制だったりに呆れて正直多くの日本人は極端だけど断交を望んでる人だっているよ、それが歴史を繰り返さない唯一の方法かな、まぁそれは客観的な話であってぶっちゃけ韓国の女性は可愛いので好きです。

It is very interesting to see how different the Japanese and Koreans are, even though they are the two closest peoples genetically, linguistically, and culturally on the planet. The differences between Japan and Korea show how diverse Asia is.
Great video bro, very good insight 🔥🔥🔥

Though I comprehend the lingering animus harbored by certain individuals, particularly those of elder generations, it would be unjust to impose the guilt of ancestral misdeeds upon the current generation of Japanese, as if they bear sole responsibility for actions not of their own accord.

Interesting hearing the opinions from Korean people. I’m a foreigner to bother countries. Honestly, in general, I thought the Japanese were kind and considerate and the Koreans seemed rude 😅
Are you interviewing Native Koreans? Those two Korean girls weren't Koreans but Korean Americans (with their broken Korean) giving out a different vibe and viewpoint than what is that of a Korean. The man next to the pink-haired girl doesn't even sound like a Korean because he has a thick Japanese accent, implying that he isn't Korean or is but a Gyopo / Mixed Korean.
My point is if you're to make a video of Koreans giving out their thoughts, you should ask their nationality and backgrounds first.
The guy next to pink-haired girl is a Japanese. It's even mentioned in the video. The interviewer refers to him as "Japanese" at 8:38.

At 3:15, she says she doesn't think well of them, but what have today's people done to this country ? Will the present and future generations always have to carry the guilt of their predecessors when their actions had nothing to do with them?
If every citizen of every country had to feel guilt or apologize for the mistakes made by their ancestors, we would never get out of this mess.
그래도 독일처럼 사과는 해야죠. 일본 정부가 진심 어린 사과를 해준다면 한국 사람들의 일본에 대한 인식이 훨씬 긍정적으로 변할 것입니다. 현재 일본 사람들이 한국을 식민지배한 건 아니지만 적어도 과거에 일본이 무슨 잘못을 저질렀는지에 대한 역사는 인식하고 있어야된다고 생각합니다. 그래야지 한일 관계는 한 발짝 나아갈 것이고요. 식민지배를 한 국가들은 항상 자신들이 저질렀던 짓을 유념하고 앞으로 다시는 그런 끔찍한 짓을 벌이지 않도록 반성해야 합니다.

I can understand the injustice or animosity Koreans feel toward the Japanese from the history of Japanese brutality towards Koreans during their occupation in Korea. But what valid reason do the Japanese have for their animosity towards Korean? Isn't it due to the heavy guilt they carry inside their psyche? Even if their school history books lie about it, Japanese people are bound to find out the truth about their nation's past psychopathic acts. The guilt can only be resolved by acknowledging the evil that was committed by their ancestors and forgiving themselves.

that korean guy standing next to the hat skinny girl has a japanese sounding accent. can't understand where it comes from.
It's because he is Japanese. The interviewer refers to him as a Japanese person at 8:38.
влюбилась в девушку с фиолетовыми волосами..она правда вау
I am South Korean and I like Japan except for the historical (WW2 etc.) and cultural (Anime etc.) things. When it comes to politeness, the Japanese are still far superior to the Koreans. Unlike politeness, South Korea is one of the best in the world in terms of maintaining public order along with Japan, so I think the gap has narrowed compared to 20 years ago. All the Japanese I met were very nice, and when I explained Japan's history of imperialism, they were embarrassed and apologized to me first and mourned my ancestors. They're not shameless, they're just ignorant of history. I think Japanese are one of the nicest people on the planet.
Also, as a fellow Asian, I think I have benefited a lot from the good stereotypes about Asians that the Japanese have created in the West. For example, Asians are hard-working, clean, polite, and have excellent work ethic. If Japan had not existed and only the Chinese had been introduced to the West, this good stereotype would not have arisen. (Of course, there are many good stereotypes created by the Chinese, such as rich, good at math, educated elites, etc., but there seem to be more negative ones.) Moreover, the Japanese were the first to introduce East Asian culture to the West. They succeeded in making Westerners perceive our East Asian culture as "COOL". Thanks to this, Korean culture, which belongs to the same Sinosphere as Japan, was recognized as relatively familiar to people in the West, and it was able to quickly gain fame.
If I had to pick one negative thing among the Asian stereotypes created by the Japanese, it would be that 'Asians are short'. The Japanese have been perceived as exceptionally short neighbors from China and Korea for thousands of years, while the Koreans and northern Chinese (Dongbei, Huabei, Inner Mongolia, etc.) are quite tall. (+ East Asia is the region with the highest average height in all of Asia.) I am 181cm (5'11) and no matter what group I belong to in South Korea, there was always at least one guy taller than me, and in high school I was 5th out of 28 boys in my class. In South Korea, very few people recognize me as 'tall person' apart from my grandparents, even though I'm taller than average. But when I went to Japan, almost all the men were much shorter than me and I often heard things like "you're tall" which I didn't hear often in South Korea.
However, these are simply issues related to appearance and I think appearance is not that important. Japan, China, and Korea all have their own negative Asian appearance stereotypes. For example, Koreans have the smallest eyes and flat faces among these three countries (Koreans and Dongbei Chinese have more "Mongoloid" features). When I went to the US, I gathered with my S. Korean friends majoring in computer science with me (they are all taller than 6ft) and the Americans said to us, "I thought Asians were short.". The stereotype that 'Asians are short' was not particularly negative to us, and rather it gave us an opportunity to explain it to Americans, so it was not bad for me personally.
The girl at 3:02 is pretty and I kind of understand where she's coming from but there's something to consider. As a Filipino, the Philippines was occupied by Spain for more than 300 years and they did the same thing that Japan did to Korea, but in our history, it lasted longer but the difference is that we don't hold a grudge against Spain. That being said, I don't it's fair to think badly of Japanese people today for things their ancestors did several years ago.
It is completely different from the colonization of the East by Western countries and the colonization of Korea by Japan. Perhaps you can understand the history between Korea and Japan more deeply. And above all, Japan today is denying the terrible things it did before.
@@chandlerj4543 Call it what you will but the point is that Korea is not the only nation to experience hardship by another country in the past. I respect Korea like every other country but let's be brutally honest here: The only difference between Korea and these other nations is that some of these young Korean people are stuck here complaining about an event they never experienced firsthand and are demanding an apology from Japanese people who are not the ones responsible for what happened many years ago. Maybe that's why Japan has not apologized.
So they hold a grudge and refuse to just let it go, but they can't swallow their pride and show gratitude where it's due. Because let's not forget the Battle of Yuldong, a time when Filipino soldiers (our grandfathers) won a major battle that turned the tide of the war and ultimately saved Korea. Even after that, some of my fellow Filipinos are mistreated in Korea and pay the price for Korean peoples' ignorance. Some do know about this true story, but what's the point of expressing gratitude to let these stories become lost in time and when words can't do it justice? If they want to pay their respects, we're not asking for a moment of silence, we're not asking for an apology, but to simply spread awareness so that we develop mutual respect. A small gesture, but if enough people do so, it goes a long way. I get that Korea had a rough history, but that doesn't mean they should take out their frustation on the innocent
You still don't know and you don't seem to understand. Koreans' anger toward Japan is not because of the terrible things the Japanese did 100 years ago. We know the fact that thhe Japanese who were the perpetrators at that time are not the Japanese today, and the Koreans who were the victims at that time are not the Koreans now. But the reason Koreans are angry is that Japan denies history itself and even makes fun of its victims, let alone reflect on what it has done. For example, Japanese insists a tons of Comfort women who lived and died as sexual slaves were not forcibly taken away by the Japanese military, but voluntarily participated prostitutes. It is not the Japanese of the past but the Japanese of the present who insult the hundreds of thousands of teenage girls who have died in sexual slavery due to this absurd distortion of history. Japan's evil deeds are not over and are still being carried out by the Japanese people today. The comfort women problem is just the tip of the iceberg.
Since you are a Filipino, it is natural that you do not know much about things between Korea and Japan, and I understand. But I hope you don't rush into talking without knowing the details. Lastly, the country that is tied to the past is Japan, not Korea.
You have a point. I may not know exactly everything that happened in those days, but this anger still ties back to something that happened in the past, which is what a grudge is. If they know Japanese people today are not responsible for what happened, then what do they expect from Japan? Not trying to be offensive but even if they apologized, what exactly will that accomplish? Koreans can spend their time demanding an apology and but let's think about the impact that will have. I understand that Koreans are angry for having a rough history, but taking that rage out on innocent people, including Filipinos and other foreigners in Korea who faced discrimination there is unacceptable, whatever the reason may be. Is that truly the reputation you wish Koreans to have? That they are lowkey angry people who discriminate against innocent people and continue to hold negative attitudes?
On a completely different note, if we talk about rushing in talking without knowing the details, let's not forget the time when #cancelkorea was a thing 2 years ago. Of course, it's not anymore, but back then, there were quite a few Koreans recklessly attacking us with nasty comments even though many of them go to the Philippines to learn English, the fact that many Koreans live there, and that almost nobody knows about the FIlipinos' contributions in the Korean War. If this part of their history is so important to them, how come so many Koreans still don't know that our grandfathers fought to save their land? Even the older generation didn't know about that time so I assume it was news to you as well. I assume that you're Korean and if so, there's one truth that you should all keep in mind: you, your friends, your family, and your country would likely not exist today if not for our relatives' heroism. Never forget that. If you want proof, here's your 5 minute history lesson:

@@michaelrespicio5683 This is so touched to reminding of all the contributes for Korean War. As you stated, Korean shouldn’t forget the countries like Philippine’s contributions for their land, not to repeating the same history again. But at the same time, Korean should also not to forget the history of colonization, not to repeating that again. Ignoring the histories could affect the world into a massive depressions like causing war again, political act of retaliation or etcetera. And I am wondering if Korean historical educations include all the details like which countries support them for what exact purposes and how they gratitude for those services in nowadays (Or are they?)
I think this is Really important to know how could they were able to preserved their lands and all the histories of invasions for not to repeat but also remember it could affect the power of country in the future as well.

You have to remember the effect being filmed has on these answers. Anyone who’s lived in South Korea will have heard the stuff Koreans say about the Japanese, and it isn’t ‘how kind they are’ lol. That’s an issue to be aware of with these videos: Koreans are unlikely to say candid stuff about controversial topics while on camera, and answers will be skewed towards giving ‘virtuous’ answers.
Except the one korean girl in the video

The YOUTH of both countries may well not know enough to even try to understand, though I think the Korean youth know more about what happened in the war than the other way around. Ask one hundred young Japanese about "the rape of Nanking", then ask 100 Koreans about it, that would tell you something. Next, compare what each group SAY happened there.
Haha, the Japanese wouldn't even be able to answer a single question.

It's hard to describe the feeling of knowing that many Koreans go about their daily lives without knowing about this story and if they were truly grateful for their efforts, than prove it by sharing these kinds of videos and spread the truth. That's all we ask and is probably not too much. By not doing so, it makes them come across as somewhat ungrateful and insincere by expressing gratitude and not showing it in a rather simple way.
@@_joostin_ Are you Korean? That's cool to hear there were Filipinas in your class! Anyway keep in mind, I'm not trying to offend you guys. I respect Koreans like everyone else. I just want to spread awareness because I'm tired of hearing about Filipinos experiencing discrimination in Korea by people who do not know better. It seems like not many people know about the Filipinos' efforts in that battle and even if some do, they don't share it or spread awareness even though it's important, and it makes Koreans seem like ungrateful and insincere people for being all talk and no action, like they're embarassed for being saved by a "lesser country" back then. If more people did share the facts, the discrimination would stop and there would be more respect for each other, which is the goal. I don't think it's fair if school doesn't teach about the fact that without such heroic efforts, you would probably not have a home, and you, your family and friends might not be here. And if you guys want to pay respects to our grandfathers who saved it, then prove your gratitude by spreading awareness and share the video I linked. There's not much I can do alone, but Koreans should mostly be the ones to spread awareness because it was an event on their land and they will listen to each other more than someone like me who they probably look down on and refuse to take seriously
@@_joostin_ 만나서 반가워요, 친구! I like to try learning different languages. I tried Korean but it's kind of tough...like the Japanese guy (I think he's Japanese) here in this video is way better than me 😅
But anyway, you seem very open-minded and a great example to follow! And by the way, your English is fantastic!
And I agree that nations, like people, can change. So when the girl said she doesn't like Japan, well...she's pretty but I was saying in another comment that I don't think it's fair to be negative about a country and the people today for stuff their ancestors did many years ago. Japan also has history in the Philippines just like Korea, but we don't have a grudge against them. I've met some Japanese people and they are not at all the brutes that people say they were many decades ago. They are quite kind and polite, just like some Koreans and many other people. I say this because being negative about an entire group of people just because of something like ethnicity or skin color is unfair and ultimately it's no good. It's fine to not like jerks because that one person did something bad, regardless of the nationality, but there are many good people in the world who understand that we should treat others the way we want to be treated
@@_joostin_ Wow you know "salamat"! Walang anuman, pare! That means "you're welcome". In our language, pare is hard to translate and I definitely do not know the Korean term. It's like...you know how in English some people say "what's up, man?". It means man in this case. It's like an informal way for guy friends to address each other. If you're actually a girl/woman, please forgive me. It's hard to tell who we interact with here in the comments section 😅
So are the subtitles accurate? I can read Hangul fine but when it comes to listening to Korean, I'm totally lost. It's partly because I don't know that many words yet but also because it sounds really fast, at least when most people talk. Sometimes when there are subtitles on the screen, there can be a word that I actually know, but the way they say it, to me, is hard to catch.
But yes, we are on the same wavelength here. It's is absolutely fine to be proud of your own culture like maybe that girl is and many Koreans, but some people take it too far, I think. I don't know if you remember around 2 years ago when a Filipina, Bella Poarch, "accidentally" revealed a tattoo on her arm that looks kind of like the Japanese flag back in those days. Somehow Koreans noticed that and they really roasted online, but some Koreans took it too far and insulted us Filipinos in general, calling us stupid and uneducated for not knowing about that and being insensitive even though it's kind of unrealistic to expect everyone to know the history of every country in great detail. Because even Koreans were unaware of Filipinos in the Battle of Yuldong, which, by the way, I would appreciate if you guys actually spread awareness like I mentioned before. Filipinos brought it up and that was like the peace call to stop the bickering. If knowing the history is important, then surely it is not too late to learn about that battle. To be fair, I do feel bad that Korean people went through those hard times. That being said, there was one guy in particular on TH-cam, jitler, unless he got banned, changed his name or something, but he heard about this whole thing and he actually went out of his way to film himself spitting on our flag, stepping on it and even ripping it. Of course, he tried to trigger us and it worked for the most part. Most of us made fun of him a few days later though. He later posted a so-called "apology" which was in Korean, but somebody translated it and he calls himself a real Korean patriot or something which is proof he's delusional.
Truthfully, I actually would like to visit Korea and of course meet more Korean people because I have a lot of international friends. But some things I'm afraid of are hanging out with Japanese and Korean people at the same time because even though Filipinos respect everyone including Japanese and Koreans, I'm afraid of being a "traitor" for hanging out with people from one group or the other even though we can choose our friends. We don't like confrontation but we also don't like to see our friends fight. Also not sure is people there still use "FIlipino" as an insult towards those with more-tanned skin because not all of us have that. Also still not sure if they demonize the Philippines, calling it dangerous even though Koreans are actually the largest tourist group there and some are born/raised there and even live there which is pretty cool, but it's scary to think what our "friends" really think of us behind the scenes because we also are not really fans of gossip and spreading rumors. Suffice to say if you befriend a Filipino, you basically have a friend for life, We are family-oriented so we treat friends like family, and so getting betrayed in any sort of way, especially since we respect Koreans but when it's not reciprocated, it really sucks
@@_joostin_ Hey sorry for my absence. I've been terribly sick for the last 2 days so I wasn't able to reply. I'm doing much better now if you're wondering. And by the way, don't worry about typing a lot, this conversation is great.
I have definitely heard of Valorant. Sadly, I don't play the game because I doubt my PC can handle it, and also because I'm more of a console gamer, like I play Switch when I can, mainly Monster Hunter nowadays which is a JRPG which are my favorite type of game. I've heard of that character, Neon. She has a Filipina voice actress which is really cool. Most Filipino actors go into live-action acting and not much voice acting.
As for the point about Hangeul, yes it's one the simpler alphabets out there. It wasn't easy to learn at first, but then I noticed something about the letters that makes them easy to recognize. And thanks for the words of encouragement. I most certainly will not give up!
Your point about nationalism is spot on. It's probably less of a problem in Southeast Asia because a lot of Filipinos, as an example, work in a lot of different countries like Saudi Arabia and so we tend to be very open-minded when abroad. There are more Filipinos in Saudi than other countries like Canada, so some Arabs speak Tagalog which is really cool but there is also mutual respect between Filipinos and Arabs, likely because a lot of Filipinos there are nurses.
With regards to Bella, she apologized for the incident and said she would have the tattoo removed which she probably has by now. Of course, set us off was when some people just wouldn't let it go and continued to harass us, almost like kicking us while we're down. I will admit it almost tainted our image of Korea because we didn't understand why some were quick to forgive and others kept attacking us, not to mention looking up to a country that looks down on others including ourselves, although we should remember that not everyone is that hostile which must have saved us from attacking them harshly in return. Admittedly we sort of did, but we never start fights with others and we were just defending ourselves in all fairness. And I was reminded of a documentary about how the Philippines saved a lot of Jews during the Holocaust, but I can't recall the title. Shouldn't be too hard to find though.
I will definitely keep your words in mind when visiting Korea. It is still unfortunate that the media tries to negatively portray Japanese people but a good thing that it's not actually the case. And yes, you're right, I guess ignoring anyone trying to tell me off for hanging out with Japanese people the the best way to go. Truth be told, one of my best friends is Japanese, but he currently lives in Japan. Also one of my favorite bands, One Ok Rock, is Japanese and they have fan bases in a lot of countries including Korea which is pretty cool. There are even some videos online of them performing there so hopefully this rivalry comes to an end at some point. It still kind of hurts to hear that a lot of these Korean nationalists look down on SEA and essentially try to bully us for some reason even though a lot of us support them. The ones who probably don't are the ones living in SEA countries and also because a lot of them learn English in the Philippines because it's cheaper, and also because, apparently, the beaches are nicer (no offense, that's just what I heard them say). Even still, these people are probably doing more harm to Korea's reputation than good. I mean, what good comes from bullying other countries?
And also the Japan-Korea rivalry sometimes gets out of hand. I was named after him, but it makes me think of Michael Jackson's song "Beat It" where some of the lyrics go like "No one wants to be defeated, showin' how funky and strong is your fight, it doesn't matter who's wrong or right, just beat it". Totally different context but just a random thought 😅, but in the music video, MJ basically stops a gang war and gets them on the same side as shown by everyone following his lead. Hopefully that ends up being Japan and Korea one day.
To your last point about the battle of Yultong, yes the Philippines was the first Asian country to respond. And yes, if not for the heroic efforts of our grandfathers, who knows what Korea would be like today. This is why I'm trying to spread awareness to other Korean people to stop the discrimination they have for us. To do that, I tried emailing the owner of a Korean learning site a few weeks ago. I think he's a Canadian living in Korea, married to a Korean, and I tried explaining the events of the Battle of Yultong and how I was trying to stop the discrimination that some Filipinos experience there. Unsurprisingly, I got no response, at least not yet. Either because it went straight to spam or because he didn't believe me even though I tried including proof and he probably somehow misinterpreted my honest message as being harmful to Koreans which I wasn't. I explained, honestly, that everybody living in Korea including himself, his wife, his friends, his children, the nationalists, and also you, my friend, all have a country to call home thanks to the efforts of our the allied forces and also our grandparents. Many of whom are no longer here, but the only way to show gratitude to them and pay respects is by sharing the facts. Simply saying thanks to us young people doesn't mean much since we're not the ones who fought in the war. I was counting on his help but now I guess I need to try finding another way to spread the word.
@@_joostin_ Thank you for your encouraging words! Yes, I'm doing a lot better but I do appreciate the concern.
That's cool to hear we are both gamers, indeed! It's unfortunate that you have less time for it because of school, but understandable. I've been there and it feels weird to have less time for something you enjoy. It's like cutting something off and letting it go, at least for some time.

And sometimes while playing Monster Hunter (the latest one on the Switch is called Monster Hunter Rise), there are some Korean players online. Not very common to see them but they are there. The only international players I see when I am online are Spanish-speaking, mostly Japanese, sometimes Korean, and Mandarin-speaking players. It's also nice to hear that Japanese consoles and games have a thriving market there in Korea.
I didn't know that about Turkey. I knew they fought in the war but it's still pretty nice to hear that they took care of Korean people and the children at the time. It would be interesting to see the video.
Yes, it is a little strange that Korea and the Philippines do not share the same kind of relationship as Korea has with Turkey. But I suppose it's fine now where things are neutral. This is better than hostility from both sides though.
It's unfortunate that younger people do not care much about history and see it as just a boring subject. I can't blame the students however. When it comes to learning a subject, it's not the subject itself, but how one goes about learning it. The matter reminds me that schools need to find ways to make these subjects relevant, or better yet, keep students curious in a world that is constantly changing. It seems to be a problem around the world with students; simply forcing information down their throats doesn't really work. Some students will find certain subjects more relevant to their lives than other ones, and every student will have differing opinions on the relevance of a subject to THEIR life. In my opinion, there should be a little more freedom and flexibility for even high-school students to choose what interests them instead of learning what they will forget eventually. To someone who will become a graphic designer, science may not be as relevant to them as someone who will become an engineer. The graphic designer may not even remember much, if anything at all, from science class. At the same time, having some basic knowledge such as basic math, language proficiency, and literacy, ethics, and computer skills are all useful.
I appreciate that you wish to help me out on my mission to spread awareness of the Filipinos' involvement in the war. As for the Korean learning site owner, I only knew them for their site which gives Korean learners a free resource. Upon checking, it turns out they have a following on TH-cam, which I somehow missed. At the time of writing, they have 86 throusand subs but haven't uploaded anythng in about a year. They have their email up on their site which I found but should have known I'd get no response. I was kidding myself thinking I'd be seen and heard, wasting all that time drafting the message explaining everything. Even on TH-cam, hardly anyone notices my comments even if there are only 10 others. And hardly anyone responds to email nowadays it seems. If it doesn't end up in the spam, we're lucky to have some of our messages seen.
I've definitely heard of Reddit, and I should get into it to join discussions. As for the suggestion to create my own content, this has nothing to do with my mission, but I'm actually working on a project right now intended for beginners of Japanese. Hopefully this is not set anyone off the wrong way, but in a previous comment in our converrsation, I mentioned how I like to learn other languages whenever I can. Well, I actually know Japanese fairly well; it's my best foreign language and I speak it way better than Korean even though I should try to get back into the swings of things. This project will involve helping beginners ease their way into the language through storytelling (I write everything and have no help whatsoever) and creating content on a bunch of social media platforms. To make the story come to life, I took anime-style drawing courses and have drawing of my characters on paper, all from imagination. One of my characters plays guitar, which I also do. I plan on creating original pieces for the sake of this project and playing the instrument somehow helps when I hit writer's block which I never expected I'd experience but as a writer, it's inevitible but overcoming it for a greater purpose makes it worth the effort.
Korean genZers don't have that general animostiy towards Japan. We've found another one who actually does harmful things to us.

Korean President Syngman Rhee ignored the MacArthur line and forcefully included Takeshima into South Korean territory before the Sanfrancisco treaty was signed , which violated the international law and caught Japanese fishermen fishing around the island and killed them. On the other hand, Korea blamed Russia for invading some part of Ukrarine. Whats the difference between them? Many people dont know Korea is not a victim but a perpetrator in WW2. Many Korean volunteered for Japanese army and committed misdeeds together but Korea still whitewash these facts under the rug and pretend to be a victim. Its quite different from Austria who was forcefully annexed by Nazi and many Austrians volunteered for Nazi but after the war, Austria admitted they are not a victim but a perpetrator and apologized for that. During Vietnam war .Korean servicemen raped and mistreated Vietnamese but NEVR apologize nor compensate for their misdeeds.

Many Koreans are aware of the history of Japanese invasion and the fact that Dokdo is Korean territory, but when someone asks them about the reasons, they seem unable to explain it well. It would be great if they could study and articulate it accurately. However, considering that everyone's lives are busy, it might be difficult to find time for studying. It's simple. There are historical documents that prove Dokdo is Korean territory, and official Japanese documents that record Dokdo as Korean land also exist. During the Russia-Japanese War, Dokdo became strategically important, so Japan incorporated it as their own land. That was in 1904, before the outbreak of World War I. However, Japan was defeated in World War II. Interestingly, Korea became a Japanese colony before World War II, but the Allied Powers specifically stated in the agreement to grant Korea independence that the entire Korean Peninsula and its surrounding islands should be returned to Korea. In the process, Japan employed another trickery. At the time, Japan lobbied to make the wording of the agreement ambiguous. Nevertheless, there are still records in the documents clearly indicating that Dokdo was returned. The issue with Japan cannot be simply seen as a matter of the past. The first act of Japan's invasion of Korea was the seizure of Dokdo. Yet, even now, they claim that Dokdo is Japanese territory. This is not just a problem of historical distortion but a continuation of territorial aggression. They deny not only the ongoing territorial aggression by Japan but also the past forced labor of Korean people. Moreover, they have even changed the terminology. Not to mention the denial of the comfort women issue. If a perpetrator of school violence, upon becoming an adult, denies their past actions and continues to torment their victims, can we really say that the perpetrator and the victim can have a shared future?
good interviewed, and yeah. Japan doesn't teach much about their dark history. on your next show, go to young Japanese and ask what they know about ww2, most of them will tell you. the only thing they know was U.S drop atomic bombs on them because the U.S was racist.
keep up the good work.
Maybe because they're not good at acknowling anything in general, I'm in Japan and I've tried to have these kinda of conversations with my Japanese friend, I could tell that he was getting offended but I wanted the truth, I'm a little concerned that everyone and everything must look good in the light, but it's plain to see the Truth of any event, in the west we call this being dishonest,but over here it's about keeping your dignity, or not looking bad, I'm so confused by all this even the Tatemae ( read the air ) but I do think that the Japanese are very kind and helpful people, but I love keeping it real knowing where you stand at all times is very important
@@trusttruth9916 Yeah, its true about keeping your dignity, and saving face.

Just by looking at the comments here, you can see how low historical awareness of past atrocities is.
Japan clearly has an obligation to inform the Japanese people of its actions in much greater depth and detail, and that should be the first step in an apology. In a video interviewing Japanese locals, most of their perceptions of the past stopped at the level of Japanese colonial rule.
I think the government's attitude of trying to end the comfort women issue based on 1 billion yen in compensation is also a very disgusting measure.
This has nothing to do with the amount of money. They must continuously apologize to those who lost. The stance is not, “I’ll give you money, so stop talking.”
Also, they are trying to put aside their historical mistakes and turn Dokdo into a territorial dispute.
Looking at past historical records, there is clearly a record in which Japan clearly stated that Dokdo is a Korean island, and it is clear that it is currently Korean land, but they are trying to formalize such a dispute internationally at the International Court of Justice. Of course Korea will refuse. Why? Because it is natural that it is Korean land. However, they use those obvious reasons and facts to strengthen the argument that Dokdo is a disputed area and Japanese territory.
Conversely, if Korea publishes false claims in its history books that Tsushima Island is Korean territory and that Japan has illegally occupied Tsushima Island for more than ten years and asks the International Court of Justice to make a judgment on it, Japan will make it official so that Tsushima Island can be formalized as an international dispute area. Would you accept it?
Their representative, the Japanese Prime Minister, is taking a very uncivilized stance against Japanese war criminals by visiting a shrine every year and bringing the Rising Sun flag, a symbol of Japanese imperialism, to sports stadiums.
What kind of crazy apologist would have an attitude like this?

Former US president Hebert Hoover wrote in his book "Freedom Betrayed" about the Japanese occupation of South Korea History
Here is what is written on page 737 and 738 of Mr. Hoover’s book:
I first visited Korea in 1909, to advise some Japanese Industrialists on engineering matters. The Korean people at that time were in the most disheartening condition that I had witnessed in any part of Asia. There was little law and order. The masses were underfed, under-clothed, under housed and under equipped. There was no sanitation, and filth and squalor enveloped the whole countryside. The roads were hardly passable, and there were scant communication or educational facilities. Scarcely a tree broke the dismal landscape. Thieves and bandits seemed to be unrestrained.
During the thirty-five years of Japanese control, the life of the Korean people was revolutionized. Beginning with this most unpromising human material, the Japanese established order, built harbors, railways, roads and communications, good public buildings, and greatly improved housing. They established sanitation and taught better methods of agriculture. They built immense fertilizer factories in North Korea which lifted the people’s food supplies to reasonable levels. They reforested the bleak hills. They established a general system of education and the development of skills. Even dusty, drab and filthy clothing had been replace with clean bright colors.
The Koreans, compared to the Japanese, were poor at administration and business. Whether for this reason or by deliberate action, the Japanese filled all major economic and governmental positions. Thus, in 1948, when they finally achieved self-government, the Koreans were little prepared for it.”
Hope you get a same shock of what Japanese did to other countries in history and how still the government and right wings are trying to avoid the topic or even blaming the victim countries. The paintings you saw at the museum would never beat what anti-Korea mentality in Japan.
these paintings are what japanese should exhibit in their museum. learn from germany. i went to many german museums and exhibitions displaying the warcrimes of germans. some might thnk these actions would damage gemanys image but in contrary. germany is much respected for their responsible handling of historical issues.
중국은 극혐인데 일본은 좋다.
From an American perspective, both South Korea and Japan are important allies. We know about the historic relationship between the two countries but hope that those difficulties can be overcome and left in the past. Despite having had bitter conflicts with Japan and Vietnam (and also with Germany and Italy) in the past 100 years, current generations of Americans bear little or no animosity towards those countries. This is especially true for the millennials and "Gen Z" Americans, who view those conflicts as historical and no longer relevant. For us, time is a great healer, and we usually do not bear grudges beyond 10-20 years or so.
... well duh... Americans wouldn't have the same feelings as korea and Japan. But the history still affects any people until today
Yes, but no matter how close you feel to Japan, the United States should not apologize for dropping the atomic bomb.
The Japanese are war criminals who planned a suicide attack at Pearl Harbor.
War criminals who planned to indiscriminately bomb the entire United States by loading balloon bombs with biological and biological weapons developed through Unit 731
He is enshrined in Yasukuni Shrine and called the "Hero's Soul", and the Prime Minister makes an official visit every year.
Every year, in front of Yasukuni Shrine, Japanese people dressed in kamikaze Imperial Japanese military uniforms gather and chant “Ten no Heika Banzai.”
Under the protection of the police.
However, every time they try to host or invite the G20 or G7 to Hiroshima, they only appeal about the damage they have suffered.
The United States doesn't seem to be very interested in Asia because there are too many things happening around the world, and it doesn't seem to be very interested in Japan calling the Pearl Harbor terrorists heroes behind their backs.
@@BondiBeache I feel like the time for war trials is long past. No one alive in Japan today is responsible for that past. And it does no good to perpetuate bad feelings into future generations. Even more, most Japanese people of today bear no resemblance to the aggressive culture that dominated Japan before the war. The whole purpose of war is to resolve conflict. You don't perpetuate the conflict after you have won it.

Their exposure to Japanese people is negligible. You wouldn't expect random, young Koreans to have real exposure to Japanese. Those who've had real exposure would then be put to a test. And no, visiting Japan does not mean you know Japanese people. You are just a tourist. If you go to Harry Potter World, you don't know what the racial relations between Muggles and Wizards are like. If you were to actively live there, you might realize how much you are discriminated against

As a Korean, what I would like to ask the Japanese people is not to equate individuals with the government.
Individuals and governments are separate.
No one hates Japanese born today.
Because they have no sin.
Our demands are demands of the Japanese government.
If there's anything we want from each Japanese citizen, it's just that we want them to be good people.
What we want from the Japanese government is reflection.
Reflection is not something that is forced by someone else or an apology through negotiation.
It is to recognize a mistake in one's own thoughts and to regret and repent in one's own heart.
People who reflect in this way have a consistent attitude.
We make our own laws before anyone else asks us to, and we strive to avoid repeating this. They include more information about their mistakes in their textbooks than other countries, allowing future generations to recognize their mistakes and discuss what they can do to avoid repeating them.
But Japan's attitude continues to change.
This allows us to feel and know that there is no reflection.
Although he has apologized several times, it continues to be denied and denied again and again.
It is said that war criminals are enshrined at Yasukuni Shrine and prayed to avoid repeating the tragedy, but war criminals are called "spirits of heroes" and people wear military uniforms from the Japanese Empire in front of Yasukuni and hold their swords high and shout "Tennoheika Banzai". Anyone who looks at it can see that its intention is not penance.
Also, at some point, Japan's war crimes were drastically reduced or deleted from textbooks due to Japan's self-destructive view of history.
At the same time, on the day of the atomic bomb, we appeal to the world to hope that the tragedy will not be repeated again.
But is that just what they want for the damage they have suffered?
If they don't know what they did wrong, how can they know how to avoid repeating it?
It is impossible to reflect on what you do not know.
Many Japanese far-right say their war crimes were solved with treaties or money.
But that's not true.
War crimes have never been accurately acknowledged in any treaty, and the victims' demands are not centered around money.
Even when the Korean government offered to give them the money instead, they refused.
What they want is reflection.
What all affected countries expect from the Japanese government is also reflection.
Asking for reflection on mistakes is just a natural request.
We make this demand of ourselves too.
We can see that numerous Korean films criticize the Korean government for its mistakes and demand reflection.
This is because the people are the owners of the country.
I know that Japanese people are kind.
Then you are on the same side as us, not on the side of wrong government policies.
It is not right for good people to support the glorification and cover-up of crimes.
Please do not equate yourself with the government.
It is time to break away from totalitarianism.
We don't hate the Japanese. Rather, I would like to become friends.
Because he is a good person.
But at the same time, because he is a good person, he must criticize the view of history that is part of the Japanese government.
It is not a criticism of individual Japanese people, nor is it hatred.
This is a common sense request.
I don't want to hear that I apologized multiple times by repeating "I'm sorry," "I'm not sorry," "I'm sorry," "I'm not sorry," "I'm sorry," and "I'm not sorry."
I don't want to hear that it was paid under the title of "independence congratulatory money" and that it was "compensation given as an apology."
If the Ilbo government does not reflect, it will continue to receive demands from the affected countries.
This is because failure to reflect will support the Japanese government's continued actions of calling war criminals heroes and trying to cover up history.

I would say to blame Japan as colonizers is kind of odd, but also Korea did the same thing and yet is focusing on Laincourt on who Laincourt belongs to the Japanese call it Takeshima and Koreans call it Dokdo, another territorial dispute is Tsushima on what Koreans call it Daemado I will say that the Unification of Korea will be Korea will be united under a European power that renounce being part of the European Union and quit being part of the European Union because of changes.
Probably the president of South Korea talk to Charles III about Korean Unification as the saying goes if you can’t beat them, join them as Koreans say that the Japanese colonize their land and they can’t beat the Japanese that means can’t beat them but probably unify under the UK as in join them of colonizers that one day that Korea be united both North and South, that the Japanese will have something in common with Argentina.
That means the Sea of Japan in 99% of the world’s maps and textbooks will be called East Sea and Japan will be the only country in the world to have their textbooks and maps to have the name Sea of Japan instead of East Sea.
This will be crucial once the Union Jack raises up in Tsushima it will be called Daemado and their Korea is unified so this will be called worldwide.
99% of the world will have the name of these areas that Japan to be the only 1% to have these names:
Sea of Japan becomes East Sea according to the 99% of the world will recognize as.
Laincourt will be recognize as Dokodo according to the 99% of the world will recognize as but 1% of the world recognize it as Takeshima where the 1% resides in Japan.
99% of the world will recognize Tsushima as Daemado that only the 1% who resides in Japan will recognize the area as Tsushima.
All it comes down to 98% that the other 1% will be Argentina as to what relates to Japan to firmly agree with Argentina on something in common.
All this will happen by the time both North and South Korea unites and this happens a Korean will go to London, England without a passport.

Other then zainichis, I have never seen a korean pretend to be japanese, and why would they?
한국인으로서 일본인들에게 부탁하고 싶은 점은 개인과 정부를 동일시하지 말라는 것입니다.
개인과 정부는 별개입니다.
어느 누구도 현재에 태어난 일본인을 미워하지 않습니다.
왜냐하면 그들은 아무런 죄도 없기 때문입니다.
우리의 요구는 일본정부에 대한 요구입니다.
우리가 일본국민 개인에게 바라는 것이 있다면, 그것은 단지 착한 사람으로 있어주길 바라는 것 뿐입니다.
우리가 일본정부에게 바라는것은 반성입니다.
반성이라는 것은 다른 누군가에 의해 강요되거나 협상을 통해 사죄하거나 그런것이 아닙니다.
스스로의 생각으로 잘못임을 인지하고 스스로의 마음으로 뉘우치고 후회하는 것입니다.
이렇게 반성한 사람은 태도가 일관됩니다.
다른 누군가가 요구하기 전에 스스로 법을 만들고 이것을 반복하지 않기 위해 노력합니다. 스스로 교과서에 다른 나라보다 더 많은 분량을 잘못에 대해 탑재하여 후손들에게 자신들의 잘못이 무엇인지 인지하게 하고 그것을 반복하지 않기위해 어떻게 해야하는지 토론하게 합니다.
하지만 일본은 태도가 계속해서 변합니다.
이것은 반성하지 않았다는 것을 우리가 느낄 수 있게 해주며 알수있게 해줍니다.
여러번 사죄했다고 하지만 그것은 또한 계속해서 부인되고 또 부인됩니다.
전쟁범죄자들을 야스쿠니 신사에 모셔놓고 참배하며 비극을 반복하지 않기위한 기도라고 하지만, 전범들을 "영웅의 영혼"이라 부르며 야스쿠니 앞에서 일본제국 시절 군복을 입고 칼을 높게 들고 "덴노헤이카 반자이"라고 외치는 것을 보면 누구나 그것의 의도가 참회가 아니라는걸 눈치챌 수 있습니다.
또한 일본은 자학사관이라는 이유로 어느 순간 일본의 전쟁범죄를 교과서에서 대폭 축소하거나 삭제시켰습니다.
그러면서 원폭의 날에는 비극이 또다시 반복되지 않기를 바란다고 기원하며 전세계에 호소합니다.
하지만 그것은 자신들이 받은 피해에 대해서만 바라는 것일까요?
자신들이 무엇을 잘못했는지 모르는데 어떻게 반복되지 않는 방법을 알 수 있을까요?
모르는것에 대해 반성하는것은 불가능 합니다.
많은 일본극우들은 자신들의 전쟁범죄가 조약이나 돈으로 해결되었다고 말합니다.
하지만 그것은 사실과 다릅니다.
그 어떤 조약에서도 전쟁범죄 사실을 정확히 인정한 적이 없으며, 피해자들의 요구 또한 돈이 핵심이 아닙니다.
한국정부가 대신 그 돈을 준다고 제시해도 그들은 거절했습니다.
그들이 원하는건 반성입니다.
모든 피해국가들이 일본정부에 바라는것도 반성입니다.
잘못한 부분에 대해서 반성을 요구하는 것은 지극히 당연한 요구일 뿐입니다.
우리는 스스로에게도 이러한 요구를 합니다.
수많은 한국영화들이 한국정부의 잘못에 대해서도 비난하고 반성을 요구하는 것을 볼 수 있습니다.
국가의 주인은 국민이기 때문입니다.
일본국민들이 착하다는 것을 알고있습니다.
그렇다면 당신들은 우리와 같은 편이지 잘못된 정부정책의 편이 아닙니다.
착한 사람이 범죄에 대한 미화와 은폐를 찬성하는 것은 맞지않습니다.
당신을 정부와 동일시 하지 마시기 바랍니다.
전체주의에서 벗어나야할 시기입니다.
우리는 일본인을 증오하지 않습니다. 오히려 친해지고 싶습니다.
같은 착한 사람이기 때문입니다.
하지만 동시에 착한 사람이기 때문에 일본정부의 어느 한 부분인 역사관에 대해 비난을 해야합니다.
그것은 일본인 개인에 대한 비난이 아니며 증오도 아닙니다.
상식적인 요구입니다.
"미안하다", "미안하지않다", "미안하다", "미안하지않다", "미안하다", "미안하지않다"를 반복해놓고 여러번 사죄했다는 말을 듣고싶지 않습니다.
"독립축하금"이라는 제목으로 지급해놓고 "사죄의 의미로 전달한 보상금"이었다는 말을 듣고싶지 않습니다.
일보정부가 반성하지 않는다면 계속해서 피해국가로부터 요구받을 것 입니다.
반성하지 않음으로 인해 일본정부는 계속해서 전범을 영웅이라 부르고 역사를 은폐하려고 하는 행동이 뒷받침될 것이기 때문입니다.
in Korea, what was suppose to be a successful No Japan campaign ended up in a huge disappointment. during Covid, they all flocked to see Demon Slayer in the movie theatres, the price of Lexus rose significantly in Korea, and now flight tickets to Japan have doubled and some even quadrupled in price. at the same time many US and Japanese businesses left the country. 6,000 jobs lost due to this stupidity.
That’s how yall know most young people just dgaf about politics nowadays. Forgive but never forget attitude. Just more beneficial to get along.
ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ개웃김 오히려 사이가 안 좋아져서 한국 경제 대국으로 진입함
일부 몇몇 정치병걸린 환자들이 반일불매
선동질하는것이지 한국인들은 일본에 많은 호감을 가지고있다

3:06 과거는 과거일뿐, 미래를 위해 협력해야합니다. 그리고 정부를 비판해야지, 왜 일본인을 비판합니까?
중국은 사과함?
일본애들 한국인한테 막대하는데 뭐 엄청 혐한 심함
@@TINAI1291 일본에서 범죄 저지르는 한국인 때문이면 이해감.
@@WarwickVolibear그건 아니지. 트럼프 행정부가 바보같다고, 모든 미국인들과 시민을 비판할수 있나.
ㄹㅇ 내가 경험자임..
인스타로 릴스보다 댓글에 일본인들이 막 한국은 식민지였던 나라다. 약한나라다 등등 혐한이 엄청 심함, 이렇게 과거를 가지고 현재에서도 논란이 되고있는데 미래에서 뭘바람??
역사가 바뀔수있을거 같음??
소수의 일본인들만 그렇다 생각하겠지만, 아직 일본 국민들 중에서도, 혐한, 혐중, 혐대 하는 국민들이 대다수임...
