Korean archery culture that foreigners talk about. Episode 04.

 He is now 13 years old and practices hard in anticipation of becoming the youngest reception. If you shoot a bow steadily, your heart becomes healthy, your concentration and composure become stronger, and your thoughts disappear. As we learn bowing by keeping our bodies and minds neat, we also learn great manners in Korea. Even when my son was in the first grade of elementary school, he learned a lot about a great soldier, so he was busy bowing, saying, "Hello, soldier," after passing by when he saw people in military uniform. At school, there were teachers who were embarrassed because they greeted adults every time they met them in the hallway. And when he walked alone in the neighborhood, he said he couldn't walk quickly because he greeted everyone passing by, "Mister, hello? Ma'am, hello?" A good student learned that he/she should greet well, so if he/she passes by without saying hello, he/she feels guilty.I happened to talk about it a few years later, so everyone laughed. That's why he teased me if I practiced going out as a member of the National Assembly in advance. Still, I'm glad that my son learned Korean manners and good culture well. In addition, about 30 students from Dongguk University in Gyeongju decided to join the Horimjeong National Palace, and some foreigners also came to the event to express their interest. All members of our Horimjeong Pavilion, including Yoon Eui-hong, will kindly help. No matter how globalization is emphasized, the material aspect will follow the trend of globalization similarly, but I think a country's traditional culture is eternal. No, the more globalized, the more beautiful and unique traditional culture of each country will shine. So, shouldn't Korea stand tall in the era of globalization by further cultivating and refining Korea's traditional culture with brilliant history? In the future, not only tourists but also more foreigners, including international students and cultural club members, will come to Korea to learn about great culture. In Korea, we have to impress them with better cultural policies. Traditional culture itself is attractive, but who knows if you stay still? It should be cultivated into a culture in various worlds. Most foreigners distinguish between Japanese and Chinese cultures, but they are still not familiar with Korean culture. I think the representatives of Asian culture are China and Japan. Why is that? It's as original as Korean culture... I think it's because I didn't publicize it. For example, it's very difficult for me to find Korean data in the United States because I don't have much data. In particular, there are few translated Korean history books. On the other hand, translated versions of Japanese and Chinese books are diverse. So many foreign universities use their books, so they naturally accept their arguments as truth. "The Japanese Clerk" seems to have become a textbook for all foreign historians. In an Internet discussion, I had a discussion with a British scholar about the Lim Na-il Headquarters. Foreigners from various countries around the world interested in Asia watched our discussion. He was also a scholar who studied Japanese translation history books in college and studied abroad in Japan, so he spoke with confidence. During the Three Kingdoms Period, Japan dominated Silla and ruled the capital Gyeongju!!! So, the annexation of Korea and Japan did not happen accidentally, and in the past, Japanese ancestors dominated the Korean Peninsula, and it was not the first time to rule Joseon, so of course, they found their rights.When Koreans hear it, they will feel like their blood is standing upside down. I was also angry. So he searched for all kinds of data and argued back, asking around, but he didn't bend his argument that he was still in the history book. Those who watched would have been confused because they didn't bend their arguments. I have never heard or read that Gyeongju was completely defeated during the Three Kingdoms Period in the past while living in Korea and Gyeongju. Have you heard such stories? There is no such thing in Korean history. That's nonsense. But why was it recorded like that in foreign history books? And can we blame those who read such books and accept them as truth? Even now, the history related to Korea should not be written by other countries from their point of view, but the history of Korea written here in Korea to the whole world. Foreigners from all countries around the world living in Korea will be living witnesses to the present and future Korean history. If we give them an opportunity to easily access Korea's excellent culture, they will play a very good role as promoters of Korean culture. In Japan, or in the day time?Wouldn't it be a resource for them to correct Asian history in the world by securing more Korean studies professors at universities and graduate schools in each city, opening the way for foreign students as well as foreigners to study and earn Korean studies degrees? Unfortunately, there seems to be no foreign scholars who can refute Japan's view of history. I think Korea should also cultivate many foreign scholars who are the world standard for Korean studies.     The Korean bow that fascinated me at a glance taught me a lot, met many great people, and made my life richer and more beautiful. If you talk about archery, one of Korea's most valuable cultures, the bow of Korea, and the New Miyangyo, please call me. There is great interest and deep love that I want to brag about everywhere in the world. Please continue to guide us with a lot of interest and love who deeply love Korea's beautiful culture and history. Thank you very much for sponsoring this meaningful event, and thank you very much for listening to all my long and long stories.
