I Became Park Jeong-ui’s Nephew - Chapter 42

He became Park Jeong-ui’s nephew. – (42)

“What is this?”

“This is what funny Koreans have been asking for.”

This is America, President MacArthur received a letter.

How did the Shanghai Provisional Government raise funds?

The Korean National Association (USA) raised funds by receiving donations and issuing bonds.

The question is who will buy these bonds and what does the provisional government have?

Citizens – They have no territory and do not make money through external economic activities, and there is no businessperson anywhere who would reasonably buy these bonds.

Eventually, the bonds were purchased by Korean businessmen operating in the United States, and when the provisional government was dissolved, the bonds became worthless pieces of paper.

“Ah, the Korean government is the successor to the provisional government?”

“Then I can just ask Korea?”

Still, businessmen did not give up hope.

He demanded a settlement from the Korean government that succeeded the provisional government, sending a bill demanding payment of approximately $120,000 including interest.

However, the provisional government was officially dissolved in 1946. That is the official position of the United States, and Korea is no different.

In addition, the United States is showing a sensitive reaction as rumors are coming in that the supporters of the provisional government have recently made statements denying the Korean government.

Should the Korean government repay the bonds issued by the Shanghai Provisional Government?

President MacArthur dismissed it as nonsense.

South Korea was founded in 1950 through democratic elections, and this is the official position of the United States and will not change in the future.

Korea denies this and traces its roots back to the provisional government established in 1919?

This leads to the logic that Western powers, including the United States, abandoned Korea, which was suffering under Japanese colonial rule.

Who mistreated the provisional government delegation at the Paris Peace Conference in 1919 and the Washington Treaty in 1923? But if we set Korea’s starting point at 1950, the United States is free from such responsibility.

This is why Korea’s founding year should be 1950. The problem is that this is not an incident that can be covered up to this extent.

It is true that the remnants of the provisional government were dissatisfied with the Korean government.

This was a denial of the legitimacy of the Korean government, and furthermore, a challenge to the United States. There is no need to interpret it that way, but that is what MacArthur thought.

“Our civic group opposes the use of nuclear energy, or the atomic bomb, for war. We must use nuclear energy peacefully and contribute to the prosperity of humanity, if only to appease the souls of those who died in Hiroshima.”

Recently, public opinion in Japan has turned anti-American.

Was Japan, hit by the atomic bombs at Hiroshima and Nagasaki, a victim of war?

Japan was hit by the atomic bomb because they did something worthy of it. Was Japan hit by the atomic bomb for no reason?

The war crimes committed by Japan are clear, and those responsible for the war were hanged.

However, Japan is secretly packaging itself as a scapegoat.

Nuclear power should be used for peaceful purposes, but the United States has used it as a weapon, killing countless people, Japanese civic groups claim.

Does the US have to listen to all this crap?

When the Japanese started to crawl away, MacArthur was furious and cancelled the plan to build a nuclear power plant in Hiroshima and instead built a museum there to denounce Japan’s war crimes.

If you look closely, you will see anti-Americans creeping up on you.

A similar incident just happened in Korea.

Is the United States the axis of evil that suppressed the provisional government that demanded Korean independence in 1919-1923? Just erase the existence of that provisional government.

MacArthur gave instructions to the Korean government.

“Tell them to get rid of everything.”

“But Your Majesty, if you use such an extreme method, the resistance may become more severe.”

“If we kill them all, they won’t have the strength to resist. This time, we have to uproot them.”

MacArthur’s resolve was firm.

Isn’t the Soviet Union causing chaos right now because it has adopted the habits of the Chinese Communist Party?

The Chinese Communist Party, which had no weapons to fight with, let alone soldiers, was wandering around mainland China.

The Soviet Union took pity on them and gave them all of Manchuria, but now they are crawling up to demand that we give them the Maritime Province as well.

So, is it not right to treat those below well unconditionally? Is this the time for the US to appease the anti-American sentiment that is occurring in Japan and Korea?

As MacArthur made his decisive decision, a storm of blood swept across Japan.

“Japan, you deserved to get hit, so you got hit. Do you think you’re the victims?”

“Are you unhappy about being hit by the atomic bomb? If you’re unhappy, I can make you disappear from the map.”

The United States conducted nuclear tests in the Pacific Islands.

The Japanese economy fell into a deeper slump as the plan to build a nuclear power plant was canceled, an experiment that was clearly aimed at Japan.

Economic development is blocked, and if electricity is not available, there is no answer.

The Japanese parliament, bowing to pressure from the U.S. government, forcibly dissolved the civic group.

Anyone who mourned the victims of the atomic bomb was sent to prison, and the public opinion that “Japan is a victim of the atomic bomb” completely disappeared.

“He said it was okay to destroy everything. And the nuclear power plant that was planned to be built in Hiroshima was decided to be built in Korea.”

“That’s great to hear. Please tell the President I thank you.”

The same routine that repeats itself today,

I received a message from President MacArthur from the U.S. Ambassador to Korea.

Recently, Japanese civic groups have crossed the line too far. Why are they labeling those who died from the atomic bomb as scapegoats?

President MacArthur’s decision to take up the sword was very appropriate, and I agreed with his decision to destroy the remnants of the provisional government.

The price of the Great Purge is nuclear power plants,

What is there to hesitate about when what you receive is certain? He gave orders to the military to demolish the opposition party headquarters and hand over all the people involved to the police station.

But if it ends like this, I’ll be the only one who gets killed.

I thought that creating people who would take my side even if they were villains was the basic principle of politics, so I thought about it in my own way.

[The provisional government bonds were paid off by His Excellency the President with his own money]

[Total of $120,000 including interest]

[Funny Korean Businessmen Present Plaques of Appreciation to the Korean Government]

I paid $120,000 to some funny Korean businessmen.

If I deny the provisional government, I don’t have to pay back the $120,000, but then how will the Koreans in the US view me?

It is estimated that there are approximately 30,000 Koreans living in the United States. Although this is not a large number, a significant number of them have settled in the United States and grown into successful businessmen.

It would be okay to get rid of the members of the National Assembly who just suck up taxes without doing anything, but if you turn businessmen into enemies, you are the only one who will suffer.

I am a person who moves according to profit, so I am sure about debt relationships, and Korean businessmen in the US said nothing about this purge.

It may seem a bit mean, but this is politics, and President MacArthur did not pursue it at all.

The United States will provide nuclear power generation technology as promised.

In this way, I killed two birds with one stone: static elimination and economic development.

“Everyone!! His Excellency the President of Korea has arrived!!”

“Wow~!!!!”

This is California, USA.

I stood before the Korean community in the United States to a thunderous cheer.

Korean expatriates in the United States worked hard on sugarcane and orange farms and provided funds for independence to the provisional government. Dosan Ahn Chang-ho also worked on orange farms to raise funds for the independence movement.

Compared to the provisional government officials who only fought each other in China, they are people with their minds in order.

Aren’t these the citizens of the Republic of Korea that the government should embrace?

I declared the Korean National Association, not the Provisional Government, as the root of the Korean government.

“Everyone, people have to work. No matter how great and great the cause of national independence is, I have to work hard to earn the funds. In that sense, you are true independence activists. You are the roots of Korea. Korea exists today thanks to you. I would like to take this opportunity to express my gratitude.”

“Wow~!!!!”

The reason I said this is clear.

The provisional government was struggling because they had no money, so shouldn’t they have worked hard to earn money?

However, the provisional government fought over the 1 million rubles that the Soviet Union had paid to the Korean Communist Party.

The Soviet Union paid money to Yi Dong-hwi to communize the provisional government, so isn’t that the communist party’s money?

However, Kim Gyu tried to use it for himself, and this incident led to the provisional government shooting at each other.

On the other hand, what about Mr. Ahn Chang-ho?

Work on your own farm and earn your own money.

Even though the provisional governments were shooting at each other and committing atrocities, the government did not spare its support, saying that they should not disappear.

Knowing this background, wouldn’t it be better to consider Ahn Chang-ho’s Korean National Association as the root of Korea?

In addition, there are many Korean businessmen who have put down roots in the United States, so it is much more beneficial for the Korean government to boost their pride.

In this way, Korea denied the provisional government and turned to the theory of the legitimacy of the Korean National Association, and I donated $100,000 to the Korean community in the United States to establish the Dosan Memorial Park.

And Mr. Ahn Chang-ho was honored posthumously as the father of Korea.

Wasn’t he someone who devoted his life to his country, regardless of political interests?

As a leader who will lead Korea for the next 30 years, he has shown this much sincerity.

‘Now, who’s going to curse at me? Is there anyone against me?’

In this way, I completely blocked out any opposing opinions.

Although the provisional government was thoroughly destroyed, the Korean government did not become a rootless bastard thanks to the Korean National Association filling the void.

Thanks to the inclusion of the Korean community in the U.S., public opinion abroad is also positive. Who would dare to disparage me as a dictator who suppressed the provisional government?

By creating my own side and eliminating my enemies, my power has become stronger than before.

Literally omnipotent power,

President MacArthur also recognized me as the king of Korea.

“Haa~ I made a big mistake.”

“What are you talking about?”

“If I had known you were this capable, I would have let you rule in perpetuity, not for 30 years. I underestimated you.”

President MacArthur, who secretly recommended lifelong presidency

In fact, that is convenient for the United States as well.

If the Korean president changes every four to five years, the U.S. will also have to change its strategy for the Korean Peninsula accordingly, which is frankly tiring.

Even if a dictator is capable of representing the United States’ position, permanent rule is the answer, and with the opposition party gone, the path to permanent rule is effectively open.

President MacArthur is pushing me on my back to go that way.

I took a passive stance for now.

“30 years is a long time, so you want me to stay in power forever? I need to take a break too.”

“I can’t trust anyone but you anymore. Think about my position too.”

But President MacArthur did not back down.

President MacArthur is currently suffering from anti-American sentiment in Japan.

So, I mean, at least they want to keep Korea quiet. I also hope that this is an opportunity for the US to beat up Japan.

How dare you say the word ‘victim’.

Japan, which had crossed the line while staying still, did not miss this opportunity to visit the United States.

We plan to reveal to the world how Japan has exploited Korea and destroyed its national spirit.

Based on the materials collected so far, a museum was established in the heart of the United States.

Japan’s evil deeds against the world were widely publicized.

Just as the Nazis were persecuted worldwide and made into criminals of history, so too was Japan’s history made into the same.
