What is wrong with the content?
무엇이 잘못되었나요?
Back then, Joseon dynasty ruled the Korean peninsula. Joseon was not a vassal state of China. Joseon was in a tributary relationship with Ming and later with Qing. Since a vassal state and a tributary state are completely different concepts, it is necessary to distinguish the two.
그 당시에는 조선 왕조가 한반도를 다스렸습니다. 조선은 중국의 속국이 아니었습니다. 조선은 명나라와 이후 청나라와 조공 관계를 맺었습니다. 속국과 조공국은 완전히 다른 개념이기에 두 개념을 구별하는 것이 필요합니다.
If so, how should it be properly explained?
