Koreans began to protest, questioning the legality of the treaty, and a group was formed to assassinate the five traitors. Yi Wan-yong was stabbed, though he did not die. Four days after the protectorate treaty was signed, Gojong sent Homer Hulbert as his emissary to the United States to proclaim that the treaty had been signed under force and was therefore null and void. In 1907, he sent secret emissaries to the Peace Conference in Hague to announce that the treaty was invalid. The foreign powers sided with Japan, however, and Gojong was forced to step down in favor of his son Sunjong.

After the Katsura-Taft agreement of 1905 and the Treaty of Portsmouth, which ended the Russo-Japanese war and recognized Japan's rights over Korea, Japan sent Ito Hirobumi to Korea in a move to make the country a Japanese protectorate.

On November 17, 1905, Japan pressured Emperor Gojong and his cabinet to sign a protectorate treaty. Gojong refused but five ministers ended up signing the agreement. Koreans call this the Eulsa Treaty or the Eulsa Neungyak, which means "forced treaty." The five signers of the treaty are known as the "five Eulsa traitors." The treaty robbed Korea of its sovereignty, reducing it to a protectorate of Japan. Ito Hirobumi was installed as Japanese Resident-General.

Koreans began to protest, questioning the legality of the treaty and a group was formed to assassinate the five traitors. Yi Wan-yong was stabbed, though he did not die. Four days after the protectorate treaty was signed, Emperor Gojong sent Homer Hulbert as his emissary to the United States to proclaim that the treaty had been signed under force and was therefore null and void. In 1907, he sent secret emissaries to the Peace Conference in Hague to announce that the treaty was invalid. The foreign powers sided with Japan, however, and Gojong was forced to step down in favor of his son.

Protests inside Korea continued with groups of resistance fighters (righteous armies) rising up around the country, bringing together soldiers, Confucian scholars, farmers and merchants. Over 1000 battles were waged between 1908 and 1909 and in the process the Japanese massacred and imprisoned thousands of people.

In October 1909, An Jung-geun, a resistance army leader, killed Hirobumi at Harbin Station in China, laying 15 charges against him. An was executed by Japan in March 1910 and in August the same year the Annexation Treaty was signed by Korea and Japan. As Emperor Sunjong refused to sign, it was done by Prime Minister Yi Wan-yong.

In Korea, both the Eulsa Treaty and the Annexation Treaty are considered illegal as they were signed under force and carried out without proper basic procedures between the two countries.
