Institute for Research in Collaborationist Activities: "Ha Young's great-grandfather is clearly a pro-Japanese collaborator",,,,,,,, married through the introduction of those involved in the assassination of Empress Myeongseong

On the 14th, the Institute for Research in Collaborationist Activities stated regarding the controversy surrounding Ha-young's great-grandfather, Ahn Sang-ho, "Ahn Sang-ho was a professional doctor who graduated from the Korean Empire's Government Japanese Language School and Tokyo Jakei Clinic Medical College, but it is also undeniable that behind his illustrious career lies a history of pro-Japanese and Bunyang-Japanese cooperation." In 1909, he participated as a preparatory committee member for the 'National Grand Memorial Society,' organized by the private sector to commemorate Ito Hirobumi, and served as a member of the Gyeongseong Provincial Council related to colonial rule. In 1916, he served as a councilor of the Daejeong Friendship Association, which advocated internal harmony, and from 1922 to 1927, he served as president of the Jongno Financial Association in Gyeongseong. Ahn Sang-ho frequented the residence of Prince Uichin Igang in Tokyo, Japan, where he met Isoko Kawaguchi, a Japanese woman who handled official affairs, and it is said that they married through the introduction of Koo Yeon-su, who was then exiled in Japan. However, the problem was that during the Eulmi Incident in 1895, Japanese assassins entered the palace and It is reported that among the Korean collaborators involved in the assassination of Empress Myeongseong, Gu Yeon-soo is also described as the person who oversaw the burning of Empress Myeongseong's body in the '99 Pro-Japanese Collaborators.' However, the institute stated that it was clearly wary that the controversy could escalate into accusations of Ha-young as a 'descendant of pro-Japanese collaborators.' The essence of the controversy is not that the actor himself is a 'descendant of pro-Japanese collaborators,,,,' but rather the issue of 'lack of historical awareness and reflection,' as he made statements in the public sphere without even minimal historical reflection on his ancestors' colonial cooperation history, causing harm to the public. At the same time, he emphasized that the principle is that responsibility for historical mistakes should belong to those involved in the act,   and emphasized that the collective guilt approach of shifting the blame onto descendants cannot be justified. After bragging  about it everywhere,,, !! it seems unlikely that there will be any offerings for the time being!!!!!
