If Alternative History - Ideal History

 Of course it should have been feasible. For example, human nature should not suddenly become endlessly good and help each other. The most desirable scenario is the long-standing rule of the Hungu faction of the Joseon Dynasty. The story goes back to the time of King Sejong. King Sejong embodied the order of Joseon created by Jeong Do-jeon. King Sejong's reign was the best thing to emerge from under Confucianism. If King Sejong's son Munjong lives long, the story ends. Prince Suyang had a desire for power, but there was also a cause of his rebellion in his endless doubts about his nephew's political power. If King Munjong had lived a long time, Prince Suyang would not have easily passed the throne. If King Munjong had lived a long life, many scholars would not have been reclusive and dissident due to King Sejo's rule. These scholars would not have entered the provinces and become powerful and became private. The Hungu faction was practical. If the Hungu faction remained in power, Joseon's idealistic politics would have been repeated and its eyes on the world would have always been open. Busan would have been open to the West at least by the time Japan opened its port in Okinawa. Yang Myung-hak and Silhak would have been accepted by the Hungu faction from a practical point of view, so technology and commerce would have developed to some extent. Although the Hungu faction was a Neo-Confucianist, it was not immersed in the fundamentalism of Neo-Confucianism. There would have been no Japanese Invasion of Korea in 1592, as the eyes for the world were always open, and the army would have been endlessly nurtured. Or the Japanese army would not have been able to cross the Hyeonhaetan because a general like Yi Sun-shin was a left-handed warrior in Gyeongsang Province. After spending time without war, Joseon became an open country that constantly absorbs and studies Western culture through the opening of ports and exchanges with China. After that, they open their ports and shudder at the reality of terrifying imperialism. After safely going through the civil revolution, it would have become a constitutional monarchy, and it would have been independent of Japan, a close country that had not fought for 500 years. Of course, he would have joined hands with Japan, played a match with Russia, and intervened in China, which was mired in civil war and cries, to save some money. Japan, China, and Korea could have been friendly victors of World War I. Thus, by the 1950s, the world's national ranking would have been China's second, Japan's third, and Korea's fourth. A good relationship would have led to the birth of a coalition of Northeast Asian countries. Of course, the U.S. ranks first in the world.
