Our country, Korea, is one of the lands that would be perfectly understandable if a war happens the very next day. In history, there were many attacks and wars in Korea, and majority were wars between other country. In these majority of wars, I was interested most in Hwangsan war, the last war of Baekji.
Hwangsan war has a sad story about Baekjae's cheif warrior, Gyabaek. He knew that he would lose the war. He didn't want his family to become a slave of Shilla, so before he went to the war, he killed all his family. During Hwangsan war, Shilla warrior's morale was very low. In the old days, morale did a very important role in winning the war. Gwanchang, a Shilla Hwarang, ran in to the Baekjae's camp. Ofcourse, he got captured. However, Gyabaek set him free, but Gwanchang returned. Gyabaek killed him, and sent his head to Shilla. This was the main event Shilla could win Hwangsan war.
I felt very sorry, but both angry to Gyabaek who had decided to kill his family to not make them a slave. I felt sorry because even though Gyabaek didn't want to, but needed to kill his beloved family. Together, I felt angry to him. How can he kill his own parents and families?
War makes a lot of dead people and hard situations. I learned that peace is the best way. Let's try maintain peace. Thank you for listening to my essay. |
