Abstract
This research analyzes historical perception that emerged through the description of King Gwanggaeto stele text and the use of learning materials in the history textbook of Japanese high schools. In Japanese high school history textbooks, King Gwanggaeto stele has been used as evidence to support the ‘Imna Ilbon-bu’ along with the same historical materials that have been included in history textbooks since the 1960s. In the history circles of Korea and Japan, it is a common view that the ‘Imna Ilbon-bu’ of Nihonshoki has been overcome because it is different from the truth. However, it is problematic that the current Japanese high school history textbook still contains the same learning materials that the existing ‘Imna Ilbon-bu’. In disguise, ‘objectives’ are instilling distorted historical perceptions in Japanese high school students.BR The Japanese history textbook uses historical materials compiled in the same unit as King Gwanggaeto stele to mechanically establish the relationship between ancient Japan and the Korean Peninsula to plant false historical awareness. The relationship with the southern part of the Korean Peninsula, described as a friendly relationship, is part of the world of Japan, and through the war with Goguryeo, a historical view is included in the world of the Korean Peninsula.BR In the end, the historical view, which had been presenting the legitimacy of colonization of the Korean Peninsula through ancient historical materials, shows that the history textbooks still retain their vitality to this day.
