Jeonju Lee Jong-in’s Association, “Stop broadcasting immediately” to distort the history of’Chosun-gu Masa’

Jeonju Lee Jong-hoe (Jeonju Lee Dae-dong Jong-Yakwon) demanded to stop the airing of the SBS drama’Choseon-gu Masa’, which has been controversial over history distortion.

On the 24th, Jongchinhoe said in a statement, “I request that the airing of the historical distortion Northeast Fair Drama’Choseongu Masa’ is immediately stopped.”

Jongchinhoe said, “The names of real people in history such as Taejong, Yangnyeongdaegun, and Chungnyeongdaegun were used as they were, and they were distorted differently from historical facts.” “Most people and people around the world have negative perceptions of the Joseon Dynasty and a false sense of history. “We want to present a strong countermeasure to the broadcasting station and production crew because of the concern that we may have a problem.

At the same time, Jongchinhoe added, “Some media and the public are seriously raising concerns about the distortion of the drama and historical facts, and are even making petitions for the Blue House.”

Earlier on the 23rd, a post titled’I request the immediate suspension of broadcasting of the historical distortion Northeast Fair Drama’Chosun-gu Masa’ was posted on the Blue House National Petition Bulletin Board.

Cheong Won-in said, “The drama distorted history and was dotted with content and screens that seemed to accept China’s Northeast Project. Can it be irrelevant to the facts?” he criticized.

He then pointed out that foreigners who do not know the history of Joseon could see the drama and misunderstand it, and added, “I don’t understand that this content is broadcast without problems in the air.” Currently, the petition has obtained the consent of 99,000 people.

On the other hand,’Choseon-gu Masa’, which first broadcast on the 22nd, is said to have provided the pretext for the distortion of history and the Northeast process as a scene where Chungnyeong Daegun treats foreign priests with mooncakes, Chinese dumplings, and pidan (saked duck eggs) at a Korean gisaeng house I was overwhelmed by criticism.

It was also pointed out that Taejong, who is known to have cared for the real people, described the Joseon royal family negatively, such as slaughtering innocent people after seeing the vision of Lee Seong-gye, or scenes where Chungnyeongdaegun was even ignored by an officer.

As the controversy grew, the production crew once again apologized for causing misunderstandings and causing discomfort to the city hall in the sensitive period regarding Chinese-style art and small items (moon cakes, etc.). We will delete all the problematic scenes and reflect them in replays and reruns.”

SBS also said, “As much as we deal with real people and history, we should have taken care of and inspected them in more detail, but we feel infinite responsibility and deeply apologize to the viewers for the parts that could not be done.” Through a thorough review of the content, I will do my best so that the viewers do not feel any discomfort,” he apologized.
