Goguryeo

  • Goguryeo

    • Concerning the "Northeast Asia Project"

      "A Research Series on the History and Current Status of the Northeast Borderland," also known as the "Northeast Asia Project," is a research project that was conducted officially from 2002 to 2007 by the Research Center for Chinese Borderland History and Geography, an institution affiliated with the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences (CASS). Despite the historical facts, the project incorrectly interprets the history of "Goguryeo" as that of China's, referring to it as "a regional kingdom of an ethnic group of ancient China."

      After the vice foreign ministers of Korea and China reached a verbal agreement over historical issues in August 2004, China has largely met the demands of Korea for the correction of the abovementioned historical content.

      Nevertheless, some of the distorted descriptions of Goguryeo‘s history remain uncorrected at the local government level. Likewise, new cases of historical distortion have arisen at the central government level. In response, the Korean government continues to request for the correction of these erroneous interpretations.

    • The Korean Government's Position on Issues Concerning the History of Goguryeo

      The Korean government considers issues concerning the history of Goguryeo to be a matter of national identity, and thus places such issues among its highest priorities. Accordingly, the Korean government has responded to the distortion of Goguryeo's history with resolution and has, in reference to the 2004 verbal agreement, called for the correction of these distortions of history.

      Regarding historical issues not limited to the history of Goguryeo, the Government of the Republic of Korea will continue to collaborate closely with relevant ministries and organizations to monitor historical distortions and respond firmly. Furthermore, the government plans to actively enhance mutual understanding through academic exchanges and disseminate correct historical awareness internationally.
