Korean History Learned by Historical Drama
Korean History Learned by Historical Drama 1 Empress Ki
If you want to learn Korean history, but you don’t know where to start and how to do it, you can start step by step and see the three dramas I will recommend, so you can have some knowledge of each era. The first drama I want to recommend is one of the dramas that I really enjoyed watching. Have you ever heard of Empress Ki?
Empress Ki’s drama tells the story of Empress Ki, who became an empress among princesses who were taken to the Yuan Dynasty during the Goryeo Dynasty, or to present-day Mongolia, and the story of the Goryeo Dynasty, which was influenced by the Yuan Dynasty at that time. The drama is a bit long in 51st grade, but it’s a drama where you can get some information about the Goryeo Dynasty, and I highly recommend it to those who like actress Ha Ji-won!
Korean History Learned by Historical Drama 2 Hwarang
The second drama I want to introduce is Hwarang. Do you know what the word “Hwarang” means? Hwarang means “a man as beautiful as a flower,” and the reason why it means this is because it is an organization made up of beautiful men who are full of abilities. Hwarangdo Island, which plays an important role in wars, was created by King Jinheung during the Silla Dynasty.
This drama consists of a total of 16 episodes that continue the story of King Jinheung and Hwarangdo during the Silla period. Actor Park Seo-joon and actor Park Hyung-sik, who are interesting and well-known around the world, are also a drama starring Tae-hyung of BTS and Choi Min-ho of Sini, so you can get a lot of information about Hwarangdo Island, especially during the Silla period.
Korean History Learned by Historical Drama 3 Mr. Sunshine
The last drama I want to recommend is Mr. Sunshine. Have you ever heard of Mr. Sunshine? This drama is about the love story between Eugene and Go Ae-shin, a former Joseon slave who returned to Joseon during the Japanese Invasion of Korea in 1592. It also contains the story of Gu Dong-mae and Kim Hee-seung’s affection for Go Ae-shin.
If you watch this drama, which tells the story of the war that took place between Japan and Joseon, which is a total of 24 high schools, or the Japanese invasion of Joseon at that time, you can fully understand what happened at that time, and you can shed tears in between. Among the historical dramas I watched, this drama was the most memorable. It is a very realistic drama that reflects the people of the Joseon Dynasty.

We don’t have history, but we have to remember,
the unknown righteous army.
The only thing they wanted was a slave, a butcher, a Confucian scholar, and a poor citizen
It was not money, name, or honor, but the “sovereignty” of the Joseon Dynasty.

1905.
The U.S. enters into a secret agreement to hand over Joseon to Japan on the condition that the Philippines becomes a colony.
Japan, which has wings with the Katsura Taft Secret Treaty, finally reveals its wild ambition, and Ae-shin’s Joseon breaks down helplessly, and she said… She’s as pretty as a flower like that…
The drama “Mr. Sunshine,” scheduled to air in 2018, marking the 99th anniversary of the establishment of the Provisional Government of the Republic of Korea, is a lonely and majestic modern love story between Eugene Choi, a black-haired U.S. Marine Corps officer stationed in Joseon for U.S. interests, and Ae-shin Baby, the last bloodline of the Ko family.
That’s all for the 3 dramas I want to recommend. I hope you enjoy them.
Please recommend the drama that you enjoyed the most among the three above to your friend!
