Geography The Korean peninsula juts out from the mainland in Northeast Asia between China and Japan. This key location has made Korea the target of aggression by neighboring nations throughout history. To the east, Japan viewed Korea as a first and vital step to a conquest of the Asian mainland. To the west, China viewed Korea as a rightful part of its territory as the supreme power of Asia. For thousands of years, Korea managed to fend off advances and maintain cultural and political independence. It was not until 1910, when Korea became a colony of Japan, that a foreign power ruled over the Korean peninsula. For thousands of years Korea was beset on all sides, yet still managed to maintain its own unique cultural identity. Its unique position also made it a natural conduit of culture in Asia. Much of Chinese culture was borrowed or adapted, later to be passed on to Japan. Trade was important as well, bringing news and culture as well as goods from distant lands. According to the legends, travelers came from as far away as India. Although Korea considered China to be a "big brother" nationKorea was, for most of its history, under Chinese suzeraintya fierce national pride preserved a unique Korean culture. King Sejong's invention of Hangul, the Korean alphabet, in the fifteenth century is an example of the independent spirit of the Korean people. Up to that point, all literature had been transmitted using Chinese characters. With the invention of Hangul, Korea now had a unique written language to match its unique spoken languageKorean, along with Japanese, is more closely related to Turkish than it is to Chinese.

Wikipedia Article Korean mythology ज्ञानकोश: - The Indological Knowledgebase Korean mythology The original religion of Korea was a form of the Eurasian Shamanism Taoism . There has been a mass conversion to Christianity amongst the population since the Korean War. After the Korean War Koreans became embarrassed about their own mythology and though many figures are still alive in the consciousness of the general population, much of the oral tradition about the relationship between the mythological figures has been lost. While Tangun is still remembered as a semi-historical dynasty, much else regarding the family of Gods he descends from has been brushed away from the national consciousness. A prime example of this was during the 1988 Summer Olympic Games when there was a crack-down on the genuine local shamans out of embarrassment. There are now very few practitioners of the ancient Korean religions in Seoul and charlatans have quickly gobbled up the former shaman audience in the quest to exploit people seeking spirituality.

Unsourced material may be challenged and removed. (June 2006) Korean mythology consists of national legends and folk-tales which come from the all over the Korean Peninsula The original religion of Korea was a form of the Eurasian shamanism and the totemism of Far East Asia , specifically of the nomadic peoples of present-day Manchuria . These were strongly colored by the later importations of Buddhism Confucianism and Taoism from China During the early ages, when Buddhism was on the rise, Korean shamanism was widely discredited in an attempt to establish Buddhism as the state religion. In later years both Korean Buddhism and shamanism were heavily purged, almost to the point of being lost from the consciousness of the general population. After the Korean War in 1953, shamans came to be seen less as religious figures and more as charlatans willing to exploit people for money. Recently, however, there has been a substantial revival movement reclaiming an essential element of Korean culture Although the society is suffused with Confucian values and customs, roughly half of South Koreans today identify themselves as non-religious, a quarter as
