Abstract

Chinese Northeast Project for three Northeastern provinces on the basis of the unified multi-ethnic state theory was expanded to the history, culture and territory of Korea beyond the simple ancient history and has been accelerating the forgery of Chinese history that the territories around China were the subject countries of China. Such movement has high possibility to create the diplomatic issues on the territory against South and North Korea. It was widely known up to now that Northeast Project distorted mainly the history of Goguryeo, Balhae or Buyeo to the history of subject countries of China through media. Moreover, introduction of Hanbok and Kimchin in 2022 Beijing Olympics as a part of Chinese culture is also a part of Northeast Project. Reasoning of Northeast Project on the history established by the new Sinocentrism was reflected and described on the government designated history textbook of Korea as it was. The government designated textbook of China used in these days marked the northern region of Korean peninsula in the ancient history as the territory of Han, Wei and Jin dynasty. This study investigated the background of reasoning above by analyzing the contents of the government designated textboom of China describing the northern region of Korean peninsula in the ancient times as the territory of subject countries of China, and discussed the approach to solve the issue above. The existing researches on Northeast Project in Korea and abroad tended to focus on the clearly exposed issues. Reasoning for insisting the territories of Gojoseon, Goguryeo, Balhae and Buyeo as the subject countries through Northeast Project is the ‘insistence that Pyeongyang in Korean peninsula was Nakrang-gun’. It’s the reasoning that has been continuously insisted by the academic world of Korea. For correcting the history textbook of China describing the northern region of Korean peninsula as the territory of Nakrang-gun of Han dynasty and furthermore, the territory of Wei and Jin dynasty as the territory of Korean peninsula, this study suggested the practical tasks for Korean government and the historical studies world of Korea to solve the issues of Northeast Project. The suggestions are ‘complete review on the location of Hansagun and Nakrang-gun in Pyeongyang’, ‘publication of Korean ancient history map’ that can acknowledge the accurate Korean history to the world against the Northeast Project map, and ‘revision of national history book’ eliminating Northeast Project of China and the peninsula historical view by Korean History Compilation Committee of Japan during the Japanese colonial era, which have a thread of connection each other.
