Korea has had a long, great civilization, with four "golden ages."
Destruction caused by foreign powers has failed to extinguish the
Korean spirit for survival. Korea, at least its southern part, is
at the threshold of another golden age, despite the handicap of
being a divided nation. To understand Korea's present situation,
one must look back at many thousands of years of Korean history.
The purpose of this study is to look squarely at that history,
including the atrocities committed against Koreans by several
countries, especially Japan in the periods of 1592-1598 and
1895-1945. Some of the questions addressed in this study are: How
did Koreans rebuild their country time after time, following
destruction by foreign invaders? How could Koreans, in recent
years, rebuild their economy in such a short time? What motivates
them? Why is North Korea so different from South Korea? What is the
potential of Korea in the twenty-first century? Why do Koreans have
such difficulty unifying their country?
