Military History and Ganghwa - Joseon Period and Contemporary International Relations

Why did we chose this topic?

We participate the Ganghwa Girl’s High School Glabal Issues Forum in 2019 Winter. Friends who are interested in international relations and military facilities or events centered on Korea gathered. So, we tried hard to unite our various interest in one. As a result, we decided our topic Military History and Ganghwa – Joseon Period and Contemporary International Relations. We are going to deal with the incidents occurred in Ganghwa. Representatively, because there are many military events in Ganghwa, we picked up few representative events; French attack in 1866(Byeongin Yangyo), American Disturbance of 1871(Sinmi Yangyo), UNYOHO incident of 1875, Korean-Japanese Treaty of 1876. Focused on the role of Ganghwa and its meaning, we are tried to connect each military event to past and also to present. Through these activities, we are looking forward to inform the importance of Ganghwa for military and geographical region. Also, focused on Ganghwa, in 19 century, the thoughts for protection our own country developed. For these reasons we thought that we should put forth our efforts to protect and preserve region called Ganghwa. Lastly, we really hope that many people should recognize the importance of Gangwha as a role of protecting our country.

French campaign against Korea of 1866(Byeongin Yangyo)

Historical background

[1] [2]

From 1849 to early 1863 Joseon was tolerant to Catholics. As a result, many French missionaries entered Korea and the general number of Catholics was growing. Meanwhile, in 1864 the Russian Empire approached the Joseon government with trade agreement. Catholic missionaries of Joseon Korea protested the alliance with France and Britain because it could have blocked trade with Russians.

However, both trade agreement with Russia and the alliance between the three countries was canceled. They WHO? also criticized missionaries for the irresponsible alliance proposal. In this situation, aiming to strengthen his authority and settle the uneasy public sentiment, Heungseon Daewongun enforced the law to suppress Catholicism.

Cause and Effect

AmiralRoze
Cause

In 1860 Joseon Korea’s neighbour Russia demanded trade and the right of Russian merchants to live in the Joseon Korea. At that time, Hong Bong-ju, a Catholic, proposed to Heungseon Daewongun to form an alliance with the U.K. and France via the help of the Catholic bishop, and use this alliance as a way to resist Russia. However, Heungseon Daewongun found out that Hong Bong Joo has been in contact with the West for a long time. Because of this, Heungseon Daewongun thought that Hong bong ju’s proposal was a scheme to gain profits and freedom for Catholics, and executed nine of the 12 Catholic missionaries from the West. This incident is called the Persecution of Byongin. Reidel, one of the survived French missionary, went to Tianjin and told Rose, the commander of the French Fleet, about the religious persecution against Catholicism in Joseon.

Deployment

After the occupation of the Ganghwa Ministry on October 16, Rose expressed his strong will to retaliate against 9,000 Koreans for the slaughtering of 9 missionaries. Because officials, soldiers and common people were all evacuated from the island the French army could occupy Ganghwado Island. Yang led the great army and secretly crossed the Ganghwa Strait in Deokpo to ambush Jeongjoksanseong Fortress. On November 9, under the orders of Admiral Rose, who was told about the maneuver of Koreans, a group of 160 men leaded by Olivier and armed with no field guns set out to attack the fortress.The Korean army attacked the French troops from east and south with artillery shells and won the battle.

Result

On September 8, when the admiral Rose seized Ganghwa, he looted a lot of cultural treasures such as silver bars and books of state rites. His fleet left the Kapkotjin on October 5 and headed to the Bupyeong area through the coastal waters of Deokjin. After the French army retreated, Joseon strengthened its military capabilities by reorganizing its military to prepare for Western invasion. Moreover Heungseon Daewongun made a new place of execution near Yanghwajin. The executions of Catholics continued until 1871. In addition, the government rejected trade and exchange offers with Western powers by implementing isolation policy.

The role of Ganghwa, geographical role

Four French vessels and a portion of the Marine Corps have taken over the highlands near the Kapgotjin River in Ganghwa Island, before blocking the waterway of the Han River in 1886. Ganghwa Island is an important place of commerce, and the Joseon government received supplies through the Han River.

On November 22, French troops were mobilized to attack Ganghwa Fortress, occupy it, and looted various books.Some 160 French sailors who conquered Ganghwa on December 13 tried to attack the fortress.

In 1866, Yang Heon-soo's unit defeated the French army who invaded Ganghwa Island through Deokjin in the dark. Ganghwa Island, which guard the gates of Ganghwa Strait, was the first base of the fortification, was the most important of the 12 steps in Ganghwa.

Deokjinjin

Deokjinjin was built to protect Ganghwa Island from the Goryeo Dynasty .During the Joseon Dynasty, after the Sick Hoean War, he made resistance to Ganghwa Island, outer fortresses, and Dondae and 12 advancements. This is because Ganghwa Island was an important place to protect the enemy from intruding through the sea, and to protect important coastal waters.

Meaning and Influence

Meaning

Daewon forces attacked the French army at Munsanseong Fortress (Han Seong-geun) and Jeongjoksanseong (Yang Heon-soo). In particular, the Battle of Jeongjokseong is considered to have a significant historical significance in that the Korean military, which is inferior in terms of firepower, defeated the French armed with modern weapons and defeated the invading forces of Western imperialism for

The Internal Influence of Joseon

First, europe and the U.S. reexamined the relationship between Joseon and Qing, recognizing Joseon as an independent sovereign state, not a subordinate state to the Qing Dynasty.Second, due to the consistency of Heungseon Daewongun's policy of closing down the country, Joseon was isolated and was delay modernized, and was unable to cope with Japan's colonization later.

The External Influence of Joseon

First,France has never again conducted an expedition to the Far East due to a failed trip to Korea, and has also rejected a proposal by the U.S. to attack Joseon together to retaliate for the General Sherman incident. Second, The failure of France's overseas trip to Joseon prompted the Qing Dynasty not to be afraid of France. As the Qing Dynasty considered Joseon a subordinate state, it no longer considered France a great power to fear when it heard of France's defeat. This led to the burning of the French consulate in the 109 riots that erupted in Tianjin in the clash between Catholics and non-believers.

American Disturbance of 1871(Sinmi Yangyo)

Historical background

In the second half of 19th century the United States began to take an active interest in opening trade with Joseon. In August 1866, a US merchant ship called "the General Sherman" ascended the Daedong River and came to Pyongyang. However, because of the aggressive approach, the crew of "the General Sherman" was killed. Following this incident, in 1871 the United States decided to launch a punitive campaign for the Sherman case. The US demanded compensation for the losses and the establishment of trade relations with Joseon Korea. All of these plans were bound to fail.

Cause and result

In 1871, the US decided to go to Korea to open the ship. When the US fleet reached the top of the line, a surprise attack from the reinforcements led to the first military conflict between Joe and the United States. On June 10, the United States carried out a landing campaign for the earthquake and the first seasonal war broke out in history.

Finally, the Battle of Gwangseongbo was the most intense battlefield in Sinmyangyô. In this battle, most of the Chosun army, including General Ehyeon Yeon, was stationed. Shinmyangyoyo was recognized as an event that US forces won the battle but defeated the enemy in the case of Joseon. Daewonun set up a shoe ration for the whole country and maintained its policy of seclusion, and refused to demand Japan several times for trade.

Gwangseongbo

Gwangseongbo is an important fortress guarding the Ganghwa Straits along with Dukjinjin, Josijin, Yonghanjin, Munsusan and Sungsung. This was the most intense battlefield in the Shinmei Yang period of 1871. In this battle, the Chosun army fought bravely with a foolish weapon, but with the exception of a few others, General Ree Yeon and all of them were killed. It is a place where we have a painful history of our lives that many people have lost their lives against the foreign forces with their poor weapons.

Ganghwa chojijin

Ganghwa chojijin

Fortress built to prevent invading enemies from the sea, where it fought against them when the United States and Japan invaded. In 1871, when US Marines invaded the superpowers, they were defeated by power defeats. At this time, military facilities such as gungwa, gunpowder warehouse were all destroyed. This historical site of national tribunal restored the castle and displayed the cannon of that time to become the superintendent of the patriotic spirit.

The role of Ganghwa, geographical role

Ganghwa Island, where Shinmyangyoyo occurred, was geographically close to the capital and was the gateway to the west coast. Therefore, it became the first attacking target when there was an invasion of foreign powers, or a strategic point where the enemy was attacked against the invasion of foreign powers. Victory in response

The situation after the Shin Mi-yangyo

Even after the Battle of Gwangseongbo, Joseon built a monument to the Japanese people and continued to fight against the Japanese.When Eo Jae-yeon died, Joseon appointed Kim Sun-pil as Jinmu Jung-gun and raided U.S. troops stationed in Chojin at night.The U.S. forces withdrew from the encircled camp because of the judgment that the limited attack had reached its goal, and because many warships were damaged by the rocks. The U.S. forces retreated to the point of water and demanded that the prisoners be released for 20 days. Joseon Dynasty (1392-1910) estimated the death of the deceased, including the addition of the Joseon Dynasty to the Military Coup of the Joseon Dynasty to the Military Coup of the Joseon Dynasty.

Meanwhile, rumors have swirled around Seoul that Lee Yang-sun had a battle and was greatly defeated, and Daewon forces have banned evacuation outside the gate, keeping a low profile.

After the battle, Joseon changed its contact with the U.S. from Jinmu Temple in Ganghwa-bu to Lee Gi-jo, an ambassador to Bupyeong. Bupyeong criticized the U.S. in a harsh tone and expressed his will to fight for the end. After such mutual communication, Joseon and the U.S. military stopped communication, and the U.S. army voluntarily released the prisoners after deciding that it was difficult to negotiate any further.

Affection and meaning of Shin Mi-yangyo

Shin Mi-yangyo was recognized as the U.S. military's victory in the battle, but from the perspective of Joseon's position, the two ships were driven away by a desperate fight. With this opportunity, Daewong has set aside anti-corruption measures across the country, and has refused to allow Japan to conduct trade several times. The United States awarded the Medal of Honor to nine veterans and six marines who participated.

The U.S. Asian Fleet was founded in 1865 with the East India-China fleet reshuffled, and Shin Mi-yangyo was the first Asian fleet battle. Such a fleet reorganization and the invasion of Korea were the result of the U.S. policy of joining the ranks of imperialist powers. However, the overseas expansion policy has only resulted in greater feelings of exclusion from Joseon without much success. Heungseon Daewongun, who had a history of Wijeongchok, strengthened his policy by setting up a monument in various regions of the country, saying, "It is to sell the country that the western orangutans did not fight even if they invaded the country."

The situation at home and abroad in Joseon Dynasty after Shin Mi-yangyo

"If Western barbarians do not fight for their invasion, they will be angry, and if they claim to be angry they will sell the country" The policy of denying the normal diplomatic relations between the two countries was a policy of not engaging in any trade or diplomatic relations with all Western powers, including Japan.

The US imposed a policy of refusing to accept diplomatic relations, but caused the Sinmyanyyo to demand compensation and trade treaties as a pretext for the General Sherman case (1866).After Sinmyangyo, heungseon Daewonun erected a shoe cost to publicize the will to refrain from normal diplomatic relations with the people.

UNYOHO incident of 1875

[4] [5] [6]

Historical background

After the Tokugawa shogunate time, Japan achieved modernization through the Meiji Restoration. And Japan wanted to expand its influence abroad as other Western countries did. Accordingly, Japan attempted to negotiate with Joseon, which was geographically close, but failed due to Heungseon Daewongun's policy.

Cause and result

when Heungseon Daewongun stepped down in 1873, and King Gojong govern, Japan sent Unyoho to Joseon with a plan to open the doors of Joseon even by force. Unyoho arrival at the port of Busan, the Busan Navy asked for the reason for the military vessel's intrusion, and Inoue, the captain of the ship, said, 'We visited each other for mutual commerce between Japan and Joseon, and we came to explore the coast of Joseon.' japan then reached Ganghwado Island, and some soldiers, including the captain Inoue, approached Ganghwa Island in a boat, and the boat infiltrated without any warning, then Joseon's navies attacked the boat and the Japanese army returned to its battleship and fired retaliatory shells at Joseon as a warship. After landing in Yeongjongjin, the Japanese armed with modern weapons suffered great damage to the Korean military, looted 36 Joseon Dae-guns, 130 Hwaseong guns, and then withdrew. Japan Appear Ganghwa Island, forcing the Korean government to take responsibility for the incident and impose the trade As a result, on February 26, 1876, conclude ‘Korean-Japanese Treaty' , and opened ports to Japan.

Ganghwa island's geographical role

Ganghwa Island, located at the mouth of the Han River, was frequently invaded by foreign powers for Seoul's threats. Therefore, the Ganghwa Strait is historically the most important maritime gateway in the defense and security of Joseon. In the past, the site was the military base for a 40-year-long anti-mongery campaign during the Goryeo Dynasty, and was the last bastion during the Byeongja Lake era.Thus, the entire island of Ganghwa has been fortified to prepare for foreign invasion. Especially, Byeongin Yangyo in 1866 and Sinmi Yangyo in 1871 were invaded by the great powers of the Gumi Empire in the second half of the 19th century. In response, the Joseon government has banned foreign vessels from sailing since Byeongin Yangyo.The monument was erected at the entrance to the Ganghwa Strait and all foreign ships were banned. Even domestic flights were banned without permission.

The Ganghwa Chojijin is a fortress built to prevent enemies from invading the sea, and is believed to have been installed in the 6th year of King Hyojong's reign (1655). This is a fierce battleground that has been constantly fighting against imperialist invasions such as the United States expedition to Korea,French campaign against Korea and the Unyo-ho event. Fort at the time, Chojijin is the place where the soldiers are. but, in 1876, through duress of the hardening of trials by signing a treaty of Japan.There is become the place that no need to defend anymore. In 1973, the fortress was restored.

Meaning and influence

Meaning

The Unyo-ho incident was recorded as an event that foreshadowed Japan to be forced to open its doors to Joseon, which was excluded from the policy of collapse. In the end, it was Japan's political maneuver that put the foundation for the invasion of Joseon and the invasion of the continent.

Ganghwa Island concluded ‘Korean-Japanese Treaty' . because of un-yo-ho sa-geon. It was also an unequal treaty, but it was the first modern treaty signed by Joseon. Joseon was forced to open its ports, and by the start of this treaty, Japan began to establish a full-scale colonization of the Joseon Dynasty.

Domestic and foreign influences

Previously, the countries including the U.S. and France, attempted to open Joseon's ports,but they failed due to a policy implemented by Heungseon Daewongun. As a result, Joseon had a slower modernization and less exchanges than other countries.

Ganghwa Island incident, however, by gunboat diplomacy since the signing of ‘Korean-Japanese Treaty' was due to forcibly open the doors and, after the case in Joseon Dynasty. United States and Since 1882 , Joseon has been concluded the treaty of trade with Britain, France, Germany.

Korean-Japanese Treaty of 1876

Historical background

Korean-Japanese Treaty of 1876 is a treaty signed between Korea and Japan in Ganghwa in 1876. Japan, which achieved rapid development into a modern state by establishing a royal regime and carrying out the Meiji Restoration in 1865, has been negotiating to establish a modern diplomatic relationship with Joseon.

At that time, the resumption of the Heungseon Daewongun's esteemed regime and the introduction of the Min clan government led to a new turning point in the diplomatic negotiations. Also influenced the negotiations were the suggestion that it would no longer be beneficial to the national interest to refuse to do so. However, the political atmosphere of the time gradually changed, unlike those who actively supported the policy of depressive government of Daewon County, which was influenced by North Korean studies and literature, and those who called for openness were growing. Meanwhile, the Qing Dynasty recommended that Korea be diplomatic with France and the U.S. while the news of Japan's political clique in Taiwan was growing.

Progress

On February 3, 1876, Japan finally signed a 12-trillion-dollar bill between Shin Heon and Kiyota Kuroda, the acting president of the Korean War, in order to engage in military negotiations over the Unyoho Lake incident, which triggered the artillery attack on the coast by sending it to Ganghwa Island, the gateway to the capital.

Joseon and Japan have equal rights (Article 1) The two countries frequently send envoys to discuss the social affairs after 15 months (Article 2), and Joseon should open two ports other than Busan within 20 months (Article 5), which allows Japanese sailors to measure the shoreline for the sake of the safety of coastal navigation (Article 7), according to the criminal law between the two countries.

In particular, Article 1 was intended to weaken the relationship between Joseon and Qing Dynasty, and Article 5 was intended to invade both politics and military other than trade by opening up Wonsan and Incheon. And Article 7 allowed us to explore the landing site during military operations by gaining the right to survey the coast of Joseon, and Article 10 was an unequal treaty that recognized extraterritorial rights.

The role of Ganghwa

Ganghwa Island has thus become the place where Joseon's first modern treaty with a foreign country was made. Ganghwa has long been a strategic hub of the country and has been used geographically as well as militarily. In other words, it was a place where the nation was guaranteed.

Reinforced fortress across the Preamble yeonmudang (dusanekd) the Japan-Korea Treaty of 1876 is finally signed here as a place in Busan, Incheon, Korea, engaged by the Japan-Korea Treaty of our country from Wonsan.Open a port for Japan. As a place to sign the Sick Protection Treaty, this shaman warns that a monument must be erected here to keep the nation's self-centeredness in order not to forget the nation's dismal past. Ganghwado Island is an area where Koreans can show their self-interest and show their will not to forget the nation's dismal past.

Meaning and influence

Japan-Korea Treaty of the Joseon Dynasty is meaningful in that it can be the first modern treaty with foreign countries. Previously an agreement is contains the request to a big country, but the Japan-Korea Treaty of a treaty, the country to country. In addition, the Joseon Dynasty to the conclusion of the Japan-Korea Treaty of gradually entering the global stage is to have to take open a port policy in Japan was unequal treaty, but to be an occasion.Was the starting point of the colonial aggression. Then again, the treaty became a policy turning point where conflicts between the autocratic and enlightened forces took place.

Internal and external situation after the Korean-Japanese Treaty of 1876

[7]

Japan-Korea Treaty of separate action, on the domestic Japanese diplomat's tour in the Joseon Period, opening settings of Japanese residents in the region and Japan.Japanese export and import of products for the exemption and unlimited in grain, and the circulation of money transaction documents, is permitted. This makes it easier for the shipbuilding industry to take protective measures against Japan's economic invasion.

The signing of treaties with other countries

Japan-Korea Treaty of the Joseon Dynasty, opening up to the Japanese, also opened up to Western countries. The United States, which once failed to open up Joseon's doors by force, once again sought Japan's aid in diplomatic relations with the Joseon Dynasty when it signed a treaty with Japan. Around this time, in response to Russia's southernmost forces, there was also an argument that Joseon's tactics to unite with the United States should be distributed to the local intelligentsia and have diplomatic relations with the United States. In the end, Chung signed the Treaty on the Protectorate of the Joseon Dynasty (1882) on the pretext of keeping Russian and Japanese forces in check and for the opportunity to obtain international final approval for Joseon's sovereignty. In the first treaty signed by Joseon with several Western countries, the Treaty on the Defence of the Chōshimi, it prescribed that one of the two countries would help each other and make heavy adjustments in the event of pressure from a third country. However, the treaty was also an unequal treaty that stipulated extraterritorial rule and treatment of Choi Hye-guk by a consular court. Joseon, which signed the treaty with the U.S., also established diplomatic ties with other countries, including Britain, Germany, Russia and France.

The advance into modern society

Ganghwa Island, Japan and the Joseon Dynasty by opening up to the Western nations, treaties, which first appeared in the international stage. Thus, it prepared an opportunity to develop into a modern society by accepting Western modern ideas and literary institutions. However, the opening of Joseon was forced by the capitalist expansion policy of the Tropics, and the import of modern Western civilization led to the invasion of the powers, including Japan, so Joseon also became the stage for the competition to invade these powers. With the economic invasion of the capitalist powers that followed the opening of the port, and the oppression and exploitation of the aristocratic classes became more severe, people's resistance began to expand day by day. Therefore, Joseon after the opening of the gate had a national historic task of maintaining independence from foreign invasions, breaking old order and establishing a new order, and establishing a modern national state while protecting the people from double exploitation at home and abroad. Joseon, therefore, pursued reform in all sectors of politics, economy, society, and culture with the aim of establishing a modern state. However, the modern society of our country was unable to achieve the self-reliant modernization by itself amidst a series of autonomy, batting average, enlightenment, water polo, aggression and resistance, and ultimately suffered the hardship of being ruled by immigrants.

The role of Ganghwa in the middle of the international society

In the middle of the heated competition of foreign power, from now on, there had been various incidents in Ganghwa such as invasion of foreign influence. Thus, the place “Ganghwa” withstanded invasion by other countries. In this case, Ganghwa shows strong spirits through some remains and historic sites. For now, Korea was developed a lot in many aspects of life. Typically, in the politic and societic part, Korea showed amazing development. Also, Korea encounter many difficult diplomatic problem among developed countries. Recently, in the terms of relationship with North Korea, many foreign countries such as China, U.S, Russia, and Japan are connected with Korea and they have much interested in relationship between North and South Korea. In this situation, there are few things that Korea should remember. First, we should remember the events in the past so that we cannot repeat the same problems. So, secondly, we should not repeat the same problem in the past like the Korean-Japanese Treaty of 1876. It was the very unequal agreement. We should remind these kinds of problems that was occurred before and reflect them in the present so that it can not be repeated. Therefore, we should improve our strength to deal with our on problem actively without the interference of foreign power.
