Korea is the English name

Wtf is that

I think you mean 高麗

That's how the word gook came to be

Basically Korean kept saying Miguk(America) during the war and they thought they said "me gook".

Eventually it carried on into Vietnam

by our constitution nk is not a legal state in any terms
so it's gonna be just named hanguk

Let's be real, Joseon is better sounding name.

Hanguk, what kind of name is that? Han land? That's super confusing considering the billions of Chinese ethnicity also called han next door.

Holy Fucking Based

Joseon was Confucian autism and ruined Korea

Nah, none of that "Republic of x" bullshit. "GOREYO" on its own sounds awesome. A simple, standout name for a great future nation.

Republic of Gonorrhoea.

Then what about Chadland?

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseon

The entire country was called Joseon until 1897 but then in 1897 they Korean king had an autistic fit and delcared himself emperor and renamed the country "大韓帝國" or "The Great Han Empire".

When North Korea was established they saw themself as the successor of Joseon so they used the traditional name.

In South Korea they saw themself as successor to 大韓帝國 so they named themself 大韓民國

>x land
Generic as hell.
>inb4 New Zealand
I wish our country was named "Aotearoa".

It should be named Goryo because
1. Joseon sucked too much Chink dick
2. Han in Hanguk reminds of Chinks
The only to ensure Korean sovereignty is to go with Goryo

Maori scum.

lmao based and redpilled

Was this manlet Gojong high?
>Declares a new era name and declares himself an emperor to cut Chinese vassal status
>Names the country a homophone of Chinese ethnicity

What the fuck

This so much. I wish for a unified Korea under the Goryeo name. It would be glorious on the world map.

I'm of English, Scottish and Irish ancestry. Not a single drop of Maori blood.

There was a group of tribes called 三韓 back in bronze age which later became Baekje and Shila. Apparently he wanted to be like those small weak tribes.

over the centuries, Koreans commonly referred to the three kingdoms as Sam-han(삼한,三韓) “Three Han,” possibly to differentiate them from Sam-guk used to describe the Three Kingdoms of China. Whatever the reason for this decision, it played a role in forming the identity of the Korean people. The Koreans have always seen themselves as the descendants of the three “Han(한),” which at the height of their power conquered vast swaths of land, repelled numerous of invasions against all odds, grew enormously wealthy through trade with faraway peoples, and developed a beautiful, distinct culture.

Thus, “Han” evolved to become a name for the Koreans in general.
Also unlike China and Japan, the meaning of Hanja does not matter with the our national name
This is because it just used hanja with the same sound as Korean
Han(한), It's pure Korean word. The meaning is big and wide.

The three hans(goguryeo,baekje,silla) gathered together to become one nation and became huge = Daehan(대한,大韓)

This is the meaning of the Korean name "Daehan"
So, even if we become unified, we will keep Daehan as it is.

Why did he give it a unifying name if Korea was already unified?

Is there proof Koreans called their ethnic Han?

Me gook

Han-gook sounds appropriate

Yes, even in your country's history books.

「三韓」および新羅について
「新羅」、「辰韓」、および「東北工程」も参照
新羅は紀元前2世紀末から4世紀にかけて存在した辰韓の後継国家とされる。辰韓は馬韓、弁韓とあわせて三韓とよばれる。なお『日本書紀』および唐[10]では、百済、新羅、高麗(高句麗)の三国を三韓と呼ぶ。

Do you like Korea?

Joseon were a bunch of pussy Sinaboo cucks. They overthrew Goryeo and put in their own Confucian loving asses in because Goryeo was planning to invade the Ming and retake Liaodong. The same Ming who fucking got wrecked by the Oirat Mongols a few years later at the Tumu Crisis.

No, but I love you

Nothing other than Hanguk is acceptable of course

NK wants to call it Confederal Republic of Koryo. For true unification both would probably still choose Korea/Koryo/Goryeo because international recognition

Different Han. Korean used Chinese character but not necessarily Chinese meaning. Also in mando it has different tone

Just means big. Old koreans interchanges between different hans characters

Korea was unified for more than millenium

Goryeo is just different romanization spelling of Korea. Same with Koryo. All the same thing. Think like Color vs Colour

>those small weak tribes
No... samhan's old meaning is that. Samhan's meaning from avout 6th century was Goguryeo, Baekje, Silla.... Even Tang dtnasty called them Samhan. So Han or Samhan means (united) people of Goguryeo, Baekje, Silla.

This. Very good knowledge.

Yes. It began about 6th century. Even Sui and Tang Chinese call Goguryeo Baekje Silla = Samhan

This.

Why?

Imagine having your country named after some long gone dynasty.

Imagine having your country named after some long gone tree.

The tree still exists though?
