Eternally Divided | The Animated History of North & South Korea

LINKS

A land shrouded in ancient myth and centuries of history. Sometimes forgotten between its larger neighbours, Korea is far more than a chapter in someone else's book.

Korea history
Gojoseon : Invaded from China
3 Kingdoms period : Invaded from China
Goryeo : Invaded from Mongols
Joseon : Invaded from Japan and Manchu
Korea empire : Invaded from Japan and Western
This is why Korea makes zombie movies well. They are immortal.

I feel tragedy of Korean people well. Hopefully they will be united into one country. Koreans are really tough people. Love from Poland.

Korea in the 900 has a very sad history. It is truly amazing that after so much suffering, today it is one of the richest countries in the world. Much love from Italy 🇮🇹

Koreans must always be strong to avoid invasion by neighboring countries.

I travelled to South Korea before covid-19 and the country is so beautiful. Their transportation system shocked me is cheap and good, most of all very clean compared to New York city's disgusting subways lol. Their food is delicious and in many cases interesting like kimchi, it took me a little but I really enjoy eating it. They love spicy foods. Chicken and Coffee shops everywhere! Really want to go there again

Love to all Koreans from America! I’m acutely trying to start learning Korean, and might go to South Korea at some point.

As a Korean, I would like to pay huge gratitude for your efforts on making this video. Although understanding about other countries' history is very difficult due to the language barrier, you showed deep and thorough knowledge for Korean history.

It is such an honor to have those warm comments from many other countries. Seems that the world is not that cold than expected :)
Have a nice day good friends, Love you all.

interesting fact: The name Goryeo(Koryŏ), a shortened form of Goguryeo(Koguryŏ), was adopted as the official name in the 5th century, and is the origin of the English name "Korea"

Much love to the Koreans from Turkey! The history from 1892 onwards is sad :/ I hope Korea reunites soon!

Meanwhile current year:
Korean history: exists*
China: I made that

I highly suggest “MR. SUNSHINE”. It is about a Korean American. It also covers the righteous army.

My grandfather fought for South Korea in the Korean War as a medic. He understandably refuses to talk about what he experienced there. Now I get to peacefully live and work here thanks to his sacrifice.

[codyshi]

I really hope the two Koreas reunite one day.

I currently live in South Korea (originally coming from London) and this video really helped me to understand the country more! I've always wanted to learn more about different country's histories and this video made it so easy to follow! Thank you so much!

[nishagirl]

Holy s**t you have no idea how happy I am that you did the history of Korea. (Me being Korean) How rare is this?! Love your animated histories btw 😁😁👏👏

During the Korean War my country of denmark sent the arguably most famous hospital ship MS Jutlandia under the UN flag

and ㅜ[u] is a strong u sound like 'w' sound in cow, saw, bow.

I'm half Korean and was raised in the U.S. I know so little about my ancestry but I can't help but feel so much pride in seeing a culture thrive despite being in the middle of a tug-of-war since its development.

Gojoseon: BC2333–BC108, 2441 YEARS
Goguryeo: BC37–668, 705 YEARS
Baekje: BC18-660, 678 YEARS
Shilla: BC57–935, 992 YEARS
Balhae: 698–926, 228 YEARS
Goryeo : 918–1392, 474 YEARS
Chosun: 1392–1896, 504 YEARS

If you check the average duration of the Chinese dynasties and the average retention period of all countries in the world, you can see how well the dynasties in Korean history have been maintained. It is important to recognize that the period of invasion in the history of the Korean dynasty, which averages more than 500 years, is a short period of time.
