As for the Japan-Korea annexation established in 1910, it cannot be "colonial rule" or "colonial administration" because the Empire of Japan annexed Korea by treaty with the Korean Empire and took Japanese （ internal ） blood money to the Korean Peninsula to civilize and modernize it.

Korea was a vassal ・ of successive tributary continental empires from the 7th century to the 19th century.

Japan forced the Qing Dynasty to recognize Korea's independence in the Treaty of Shimonoseki in 1895 after the Sino-Japanese War, and Korea finally became independent thanks to Japan.

Chosun gained independence from the Qing Dynasty thanks to Japan （ The Korean Empire ） received financial and human support from Japan, but the Korean people were so lacking in ability that the nation was in constant danger of bankruptcy.

In the end, Koreans who could not properly stand on their own （ ） on their own, wished to join Japan.

On December 4, 1909, the "Isshin-kai," the largest political organization in the Korean Empire, prepared a "statement demanding the union of Korea and Japan," and submitted a written appeal and a petition to Prime Minister Lee Wan-yang, Emperor Junjong, and President Tsune Ara-suke, respectively ！

"Japan had demanded Korea's independence through the Sino-Japanese War. Korea became independent through the Sino-Japanese War, and saved Korea from being eaten by Russia in the Russo-Japanese War.
Yet instead of being grateful for this, Korea attached itself to that country and then to this country, and eventually lost its diplomatic rights, but this was our own fault. We are also responsible for the Hague Incident, which led to the signing of the Ding Mi Treaty.
It is unforgettable that Prince Hirobumi Ito watched over the Korean people and led the Crown Prince in his efforts to help us Korea.
Nevertheless, after the incident in Harbin, we do not know what dangers may come in the future.
This is also what the Koreans themselves have done.
（ ）
Therefore, rather than being protected as inferior citizens, let us join with Japan and create a great empire and live as first class citizens of the world, receiving exactly the same treatment as the Japanese.

December 4, 1909 Isshin-kai （ One Million Korean Members ）"

However, the Japanese opposition to the annexation, President Arasuke Sonne, rejected this proposal as premature and urged the newspapers and news agencies to oppose it. newspapers and news agencies to take an opposing tone.

Nevertheless, the Isshin-kai, the pro-annexation faction on the Korean side, submitted another letter even after it was rejected, and after repeating this process four times, the letter was finally accepted under Prime Minister Katsura's direction.

On August 16, 1910, Prime Minister Lee Wan-yang, accompanied by Agriculture Minister Cho, visited Terauchi's residence, purportedly to visit the flooded areas of Japan.

Here, they had a three-hour meeting with Vice President Yamagata and agreed to the annexation of Japan and Korea with some modifications.

Based on these results, Prime Minister Yi Wan-yong held a cabinet meeting on August 18, but the meeting failed to reach a consensus, and on August 21, Yi Wan-yong made an informal report to the emperor and obtained his approval.

As a result, Korea officially decided to annex Japan and Korea at the Imperial Council of Korea on August 22, 1910.

I see that the lawsuit by the ex-commissioned officers has been dismissed.
This is really a laughable story. At that time, all Koreans were Japanese and it was the duty of every Japanese citizen to be drafted or conscripted. Many Japanese men were drafted and died on the battlefield.
Koreans, on the other hand, were only obliged to work as conscripts, who were paid better than they earned in their homeland.
(All Koreans who served in the Japanese army were recruited, although some Koreans were drafted before the war ended
They all ended the war while training in their home countries ）
Moreover, 200,000 Japanese girls were drafted.

But of course military service, all of those are wartime obligations of citizens by law,
so not a single Japanese complains.

On the other hand, Korean men are now obliged to do military service, and the monthly salary of these soldiers is less than $400!
（ Until 4 years ago, it was only $160! ）

Despite that, they paid less tax than Japanese at that time and were taken care of by the Japanese government,
conscripts as Japanese were not, but
the current almost free military service is no problem.

Incidentally, in 1965, 20 years after the war ended, Japan, still a poor country under postwar reconstruction,
paid a huge settlement to Korea, more than its own GDP.
（ South Korea decided its own waters on its own, illegally captured Japanese fishing boats, and took them hostage
We agreed to a large sum to release nearly 4000 fishermen ）

Even then, the government said it would compensate each of the consul workers.
As a result, the government used the entire amount for industrial development, which led to
the Han River Miracle in the late 1960s, and Korea became a Developed Country.

Nevertheless, they completely ignored that international agreement and still continue to demand compensation from Japanese companies.
