A brick was excavated from an ancient tomb in Beijing, but the Koreans panicked, what was the reason

What is history: it is the echo of the past to the future, the reflection of the future on the past. - Hugo

As we all know, South Korea has always claimed to have ruled northeast China, and even Korean scholars say that Goguryeo was actually founded by Koreans, so the entire Northeast Asia region should be Korea's territory since ancient times. Even some South Korean TV dramas have trumpeted that South Korea once ruled East Asia, and even said that Changbai Mountain is Korean.

In the "History of Korea" written by the Korean scholar Lee Won-soon, there is no mention of Mizi Joseon and Wei Manchu Korea, and the hansi county set up in Korea after Emperor Wu of Han pacified Wei Man Korea is unknown. But facts speak louder than words, and in 2015, a group of tombs from the Eastern Han-Northern Dynasties period was unearthed in Huangcun Town, Daxing District, Beijing.

The Korean "Empire" in the book conquered the Chinese dynasty many times

In the history of Chinese archaeology, it is difficult to distinguish between the Northern Dynasty tombs and the Eastern Han tombs, because the Northern Dynasty tombs are similar to the Eastern Han Dynasty tombs, and no clear Northern Dynasty tombs have been found in the archaeological history of Beijing.

Then again, why is it that this tomb can be clearly dated, because a tomb brick with an inscription has been unearthed in the tomb, and the inscription records a clear time, the tomb owner was buried in the second year of Yuan Xiang (539 AD), and more importantly, the tomb brick is also engraved with the tomb owner from Joseon County, Lelang County.

Lelang County was one of the four counties set up on the present-day Korean Peninsula after Emperor Wu of the Western Han Dynasty pacified Wei Manchu Korea, and the county seat of Lelang County was in Joseon Castle, while the following Joseon County was in present-day Pyongyang. So why would a Han Pyongyang be buried near Beijing?

Goguryeo territory in the eyes of Koreans

Originally, after Emperor Wu of han established the four counties of Korea in 108 BC, the rule of the Central Plains Dynasty over Korea lasted until the Western Jin Dynasty more than 500 years later, but because of the outbreak of the "Rebellion of the Eight Kings" in the Western Jin Dynasty, it gradually lost control of the four counties of Korea, and the four counties of Korea were also attacked by goguryeo in the north and Baekje in the south, but at this time the four counties of Korea were still controlled by the Han people, and the Eastern Jin Dynasty was regarded as Zhengshuo.

After the Northern Wei Emperor Tuoba Tao unified the north, he moved the Han people from the four counties of Korea to the Central Plains, and Beijing was the only way for immigrants, so it was natural to find tombs.

Korean Drama "Divine Machine Arrow"

The excavation of the tomb in Beijing caused a great shock to the Korean historians, because previously Korean scholars believed that the Western Han Dynasty only occupied the Korean Peninsula for a short time, and then The "predecessor" of South Korea, Goguryeo, annexed the four counties of Korea.

The excavated tomb bricks have a clear time and place name on them, which confirms that in the early 6th century, The County of Lelang still existed on the Korean Peninsula and was not captured by Goguryeo or Baekje.

However, I think that even if the evidence is conclusive, the Korean historians will not admit it, after all, Korean academic circles are absolutely forbidden to discuss that the Korean Peninsula was once ruled by the Chinese dynasty, the only exception is the Yuan Dynasty, after all, after recognizing the rule of the Yuan Dynasty, South Koreans can say that they have hit Europe.
