your source?your proof?do you know the story of Gija Joseon? 기자 조선
Gija Joseon
Hangul: 기자 조선
Hanja: 箕子朝鮮
Revised Romanization: Gija Joseon
McCune-Reischauer: Kija Josŏn
Gija Joseon (around 1126 BC - 194 BC) describes the period after the arrival of Gija in northern Korean peninsula. It is usually considered a part of the Gojoseon period (2333 BC - 108 BC) of Korean history.
Chinese records describe Gija as the paternal uncle of the last emperor of the Chinese Shang Dynasty, the tyrannical King Zhou. Gija was imprisoned by the tyrant until the downfall of Shang Kingdom, when King Wu of Zhou released him. Not wanting to be the subject of the Zhou Kingdom, Gija led 5,000 to present-day Korea and became the king of Gija Joseon.
Some Korean scholars question this narrative, because it is only first found in Chinese records around the third century BC, when China was battling Gojoseon, and the name of the Korean kingdom did not change upon Gija's alleged reign.
The Geneaology of the Seonwu Clan of Taewon (태원선우씨세보, 太原鮮于氏世譜) lists the names of 41 rulers of Gija Joseon and their periods of reign, although not widely accepted by mainstream historians.
Gija Joseon was succeeded by Wiman Joseon
Wiman Joseon
Hangul: 위만조선
Hanja: 衛滿朝鮮
Revised Romanization: Wiman Joseon
McCune-Reischauer: Wiman Chosŏn
Wiman Joseon (194 BC - 108 BC), was a continuation of Gojoseon, beginning with the rule of Wiman. It is generally classified as a part of the Gojoseon period, while some consider it a separate period of ancient Korean history.
Wiman was originally a refugee from the Chinese state of Yan. He succeeded in driving out King Jun of Gojoseon and taking over the throne. He made the capital in Wanggeomseong (王險城), today's P'yŏngyang. Although culturally Sinicized, Wiman Joseon was not a colony of China.
Wiman Joseon expanded to control a vast territory and became strong economically by controlling trade between China's Han Dynasty and the outlying regions to the northeast. Feeling increasingly threatened by the growing Wiman Joseon, and fearing she would ally with the Xiongnu, Emperor Wu of Han China launched an attack on Wiman Joseon in 109 BC. After a year of battle, Wanggeomseong was captured and Wiman Joseon was destroyed. Han China established four commanderies in the captured areas, of which Lelang or Nangnang was the most important.
Gija, a subject of the Yin state, entered Gojoseon and introduced the culture of Yin around the 11th century BC Gojoseon clashed with the Zhou during China's Warring States Period (475-221 BC), and lost the territories west of the Liao River to the Yan people in the third century BC. By this time, iron culture was developing and the warring states pushed the refugees eastward.
Around this time, Jin-guk existed in the southern part of the Korean peninsula. Very little is known about this state, except it was the apparent predecessor to the Samhan confederacies.
Among the Yen refugees, Wiman entered the service of Gojoseon as military commander with a base on the Amnokgang river. He usurped control from King Jun in 194 BC.
In 109 BC, the Han emperor Wuti began a massive invasion of Gojoseon near the Liao River. Gojoseon fell after over a year of war, and four Chinese commanderies were set up in southern Manchuria and the northern part of the Korean Peninsula: Lelang (樂浪) (Korean: Nangnang), Xuantu (玄菟) (Hyeondo), Zhenfan (真番) (Jinbeon), and Lintun (臨屯) (Imdun).
Numerous small states and confederations arose from the remnants of Gojoseon. Three of the commanderies fell quickly to the Koreans of Samhan, and the last, Lolang (Korean: Nangnang) was destroyed by Goguryeo in 313.
