Talk:Hague Secret Emissary Affair

Did Yi Tjoune commit suicide?

This article: "Even many South Koreans continue to believe in the dramatic suicide of one of the emissaries, which in reality, did not take place. The myth has its origins in the death of Yi Tjoune out of illness during the trip." Korea under Japanese rule "In June 1907, the Second Peace Conference was held in The Hague. Emperor Gojong secretly sent three representatives to bring the problems of Korea to the world's attention. The three envoys were refused access to the public debates by the international delegates who questioned the legality of the protectorate convention. Out of despair, one of the Korean representatives, Yi Tjoune, committed suicide at The Hague.[30]" The latter claim's sourced but I never read the source. Please check the conflicting claims. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.10.124.104 (talk) 16:56, 27 April 2019 (UTC)

Recision

In 1965, the treaties of Japan were confirmed to be "already null and void" by the Treaty on Basic Relations between Japan and the Republic of Korea.

In 2010, Japan argued that the chronological point of reference for "already null and void" was August 15, 1948, when the government of the Republic of Korea was established; but the Korean analysis of the 1965 declaration construes it as acknowledging the nullification of all treaties and agreements from 1904 onwards, which is consistent with the argument Yi Jun and others attempted to articulate in the Netherlands in 1907.

I think this should be merged to the Eulsa Treaty or/and Treaty on Basic Relations between Japan and the Republic of Korea or other treaties. These contexts are nice to expand the artcles. - 210.174.17.173 (talk) 11:09, 5 December 2010 (UTC)-210.174.17.173 (talk) 11:12, 5 December 2010 (UTC)

The date for already null and void

The sentence, In 2010, Japan argued that the chronological point of reference for "already null and void" was August 15, 1948, is weird and NOT logical. The treaty in 1965 says as following.

It is confirmed that all treaties or agreements concluded between the Empire of Japan and the Empire of Korea on or before August 22, 1910 are already null and void.

The treaty says before 1910. Why does Japan need to shift the chronological point to August 15, 1948, even though Japan thinks the Japanese rule over Korea prior to 1948 (actually from 1910 to 1945) was legally valid? I think Japan does NOT want to shift this point to 1948, but Koreans do. Because Korean thinks the annexation was illegal. This sentence doesn't make sense.-210.174.17.173 (talk) 12:27, 5 December 2010 (UTC)
