Hi,guys. I'm Haeyeon. Today, I want to introduce you guys Imjin War. Japanese attacked Joseon in 1592, and this became the biggest war among the wars that were happened during Joseon Dynasty. Before Imjin War, Joseon had peaceful 200 years and because of that, people didn't get attention to things happening in the world. Then, in 1592, Japanese invaded Joseon, making excuse that they are going to attack Ming. Unfortunately, Joseon could not realize their purpose, and allowed them to go through it. However, Japanese attacked Joseon. Unlike the expectation that Japanese will be much stronger, Joseon won many wars thanks to the powerful navy led by the Admiral Lee Sun-shin.
When people think of Imjin War, they usually talk about Admiral Lee Sun-shin only. However, participating in the class, I knew that in lots of war stories, we also have to look at not only the war hero, but also the background. Thank you. |
