Evolution Korea

South Korea’s democracy is susceptible to populist tendencies. It is still healthier than expected.

The country is looking for a new paradigm of development. A Confucian culture that values respect for the ancestors and gendered family relations continues influence the society. However, there are signs that a secular culture is gaining ground.

Origins

In the early days, the ancestors to modern Koreans were capable of survival through hunting and gathering wild foods. Around 10,000 years ago they began to cultivate millet and beans as well as other crops. They also raised livestock and created furs. They also established tribal states one after the other in Manchuria and on the Korean peninsula. They also established an industry of metallurgy, which produced iron tools, including bronze. They traded with other countries and introduced celadon and block printing to Japan along with art styles, a written language, and papermaking.

In 2333 BCE Gojoseon was founded in the southern part of the peninsula. This state embraced Buddhism and adopted Chinese culture including Confucian philosophy. In this period the people of Buyeo were incorporated into Gojoseon. Gojoseon was a hierarchical society with a monarch and top officials were drawn from the landed aristocracy whereas the rest of the population were peasants. The state took taxes from these citizens and sometimes even forced them to join the army or to build fortifications.

Onjo, 에볼루션게이밍 (Evolutionkr.Kr) a prince from Goguryeo who was also the son of Jumong who was the founder of Goguryeo and the state of Baekje towards the end of the period. This new kingdom expanded into the southwest of the peninsula, and was at war against the Goguryeo commanderies and China’s in the region. Baekje took on Confucian ideas in its state beliefs system in 1390 CE and established the male-centric notion of filiopiety into a doctrine. Under the guise of filiopiety fathers were accountable to their families and they must be respected and obeyed by everyone, even their grandchildren and children.

Goryeo, who would rule from 918 to 1392 CE established the Hangul alphabet that was based on the shapes formed by the mouth when it was pronounced. This dramatically improved communication between people and resulted in an explosion of the writing of Buddhist texts. Woodblock printing and movable metal type were also refined. In 1145 CE, the Samguk Sagi or “History of the Three Kingdoms” was first recorded.

Evolution in Korea

The Korean peninsula was habitable from Neolithic times until. Early evidence of human settlements can be seen in the form of graves paved with stone, and decorated with precious objects like amazonite jewelry that were buried with the dead. Megalithic structures, referred to as dolmens, constructed from huge single stones, are common throughout the country.

Gojoseon was the first political state to be recognized during the first half of 1st millennium BCE. After that, the peninsula was ruled by various states during the Three Kingdoms period (57 BC- 635 CE) including Baekje, Goguryeo, and Silla. In addition, the northern region of the peninsula was ruled by the Balhae kingdom, which most historians do not believe to be a legitimate Korean state.

Following the Three Kingdoms, several smaller states emerged in the Proto-Three Kingdoms period, or Several States Period (yeolgugsidae). Baekje is the most powerful of these states was weakened by the collapse of Goguryeo (676 CE), leaving it with only its southern regions in Manchuria, and the western region around Hwanghae Bay. Eastern Buyeo, and the Gaya confederacy, thrived for a time.

The Unified Silla kingdom then emerged, and the three kingdoms began to collaborate to expand their territory. In the final, Silla, with significant Chinese assistance, defeated the other states and unified the peninsula in 935 CE.

As Korea enters a post-crisis era the way it develops appears to be in flux. People who are shocked by the enormous cost of the old system advocate an extensive program of liberalization in capital as well as labor and product markets. On the other hand those who support the old system want to keep it in place by leveraging nationalist sentiments and inflating fears about job losses.

Academics and analysts are divided on the extent to which Korea’s growth is influenced by these two trends. This article focuses on the five phases of Korea’s evolution in terms of its political development: illiberal democracies (1945-60) democratic autoritarianism (1961-72) authoritarian exceptionalism (1972-1877) democratic paternalism (2001-2002) and participatory democracy (2002). This article also highlights the most important factors that appear to be driving these developments.

Creationism in Korea

In South Korea, 26 percent of the population is Christian. Creationists have made significant progress in promoting their beliefs to this group. A survey in 2009 revealed that almost one third of respondents do not believe in evolution. Of those who voted, 41% stated that there was no scientific evidence to support the theory; 39% said it contradicted their religious beliefs. 17 percent said they did not comprehend it. The level of doubt is similar to the United States where a similar number do not believe that humans evolved from lesser advanced types of life.

In the past, the anti-evolution movement in Korea focused primarily on the education of students and bringing Christ to them. In 1980 the year 1980, a four-day creation science seminar was held in Seoul during the World Evangelization Crusade. Drs. Henry Morris and Duane Gish of ICR as the keynote speakers. The event was attended by a large number of professors, church leaders, and scientists.

The success of this event led to the establishment of the Korea Association of Creation Research (KACR) on January 31st, 1981. The event was extensively covered in the national media, including The Korea Times, Chosun Ilbo and The Korea Times.

KACR started publishing a newsletter titled CREATION. In it, the organization presented its own work and published articles about scientific evidence supporting creationism. It also translated several films and slides from ICR and several books on creationism that were published outside of Korea. KACR members lectured throughout the country in churches and universities.

A KACR success was seen at the KAIST University in Seoul. Students at the KAIST university in Seoul were so fascinated by creationism that they raised funds and received support to build an enlightened museum on campus.

In addition to its work, KACR has published a bimonthly publication called CREATION. This magazine covers topics that pertain to the science of creation. It also sponsored a series lectures by ICR staff. It has also organized local branches that conduct seminars and give talks to school children and community groups.

Evolution in South Korea

In the latter half of the nineteenth century and into the early twentieth century, Korea began to adopt a more Westernized style of life. The traditional Korean dress, the hanbok, was replaced by miniskirts, as well as other foreign fashion elements. The traditional Korean music was also replaced by jazz and rock & roll. At this time the samulnori, or masked dance-dramas, were popular with the general public. These dramatic pieces were performed with the accompaniment of shaman drums as well as different musical instruments.

The economic crisis has formed Korea’s new paradigm of development. The biggest challenge facing the new regime is to find a balance between state-led and market-oriented economic policies. It also involves changing incentives, monitoring or disciplining systems that have created the system prior to the crisis. These issues are addressed in Chapters 3 and 4.

Baekje, founded by Onjo the prince and third son of Jumong of Goguryeo, was founded by people from the Hangang River area, Buyeo and other areas and also by a migrant from northern China. In the 4th century, in the early part of, Baekje was a major regional power, and expanded its territory to Mahan in the north and Jeollanam-do in the south. Consequently, it came into frequent conflict with Goguryeo and the Chinese commanderies along the border.

The decline of Silla between the 8th and 9th centuries led to the development of powerful local factions. Gungye was a nobleman from Later Baekje who established a kingdom in Songak with Songak as its capital. He controlled a part of the present-day Jeolla province as well as Chungcheong. Then, he moved the capital to Wansanju. He was an adversary to Goguryeo.

His rule was however short-lived. After his defeat, Gungye was replaced by a powerful local leader Wang Geon, who united Goryeo with Baekje and Silla in 935. Later Baekje was incorporated peacefully into Goryeo as an alternative state. In addition, Wang Geon introduced fundamental reforms and strengthened a central government system. This marked the end to the Three Kingdoms Period. The Korean peninsula was later under the control of the Goryeo Dynasty. During the Three Kingdoms period, Goguryeo, Baekje and Silla gradually grew to become powerful states in Manchuria and on the peninsula.
