At least, we can see those Korean were not deprived of their own culture at all from 日帝 in 1919. They are extremely Korean.<BR/><BR/>And it's interesting that Ulleungdo was not labelled as Ulleungdo, but Matsushima. Even for American, it was Matsushima back then?Kaneganesehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15533339719864245857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26948035.post-8219100366623769082008-07-01T14:08:00.000+09:002008-07-01T14:08:00.000+09:00Pacifist,Well, I did not really do anything except...Pacifist,<BR/><BR/>Well, I did not really do anything except link to article, but, anyway, I thought it was an interesting article, too. <BR/><BR/>Actually, I had already seen all the pictures in the article because I have a National Geographic book entitled, "Korea, the Hermit Nation" (은장의 나라), which includes all the pictures in the article and more. However, what was interesting for me was seeing the pictures in the context of the article they originally appeared in, instead of just a collection of photos with captions.Gerry Bevershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14311939520870098017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26948035.post-83868452763584203252008-07-01T13:25:00.000+09:002008-07-01T13:25:00.000+09:00Gerry,Thanks a lot for showing us the interesting ...Gerry,<BR/><BR/>Thanks a lot for showing us the interesting book. It was fun to read it, it made us feel as if we were in Korea almost a hundred years ago.
