권숙자 (Kwon Suk-ja) will be a translator, not a writer. 안병원 (An Byeong-won) only reversed the original picture and changed the colors and added the scenery. In Korea, it becomes the different picture from the Japanese original.

The picture of the cover is the Victoria of Magellan’s circumnavigation of the earth. It has nothing to do with the story at all.
The illustrations are from “海底パトロールPatrol”, but this book is not “the Deep Range” by Arthur Charles Clarke.
This book does not write the original title, but it is “Man from Atlantis”. Anyway, it is an irresponsible book.

The Korean blogger writes, “I am a little sorry that I can not know who drew each picture of the stories”. they are as follows.

• 狼森と笊森，盗森, Wolf Forest, Colander Forest, Thief Forest ………… おぼ まこと
• 気のいい火山弾, Lively Volcanic Bullet ………… 飯野 和好
• 注文の多い料理店, The Restaurant of Many Orders ………… 飯野 和好
• 鹿踊りのはじまり, The origin of the deer dance ………… おぼ まこと

The Korean blogger writes, “Though the pictures are splendid, it is regrettable that the illustrator’s name is not written”, but they cannot write the names of Japanese, because plagiarism comes to light.

The Korean blogger writes, “This book does not write the illustrator’s name.”, but it is Pauline Baynes.

The Japanese title “大いなる野望” means “great ambition”. It’s totally different from the English original title. The Korean title is about the same with the Japanese.
The Korean book is published eight months after the Japanese book was published. It is thought that the Korean book translated Japanese.

The Korean ruling party, the Democratic Party of Korea clamors for “친일청산親日清算 (sweeping away Japanese things)” and “토착왜구섬멸土着倭寇殲滅 (eradicating of pro-Japanese)” day after day.
It was revealed that members of the Democratic Party had used “Galaxy Express 999” for material of the public information following using the Japanese animation “Science Ninja Team Gatchaman”.
In May, 2018, three Diet members of the Democratic Party 정청래鄭清来 (Cheong Cheo-rae), 이재정李在汀 (Ee Jae-jeong), and 朴柱民朴柱民 (Pak Ju-min) played the characters of “Galaxy Express 999”.
Pak Ju-min plyed the main character of “Galaxy Express 999”, Ee Jae-jeong played “Maetel” and Cheong Cheo-rae played “stationmaster”. (Chosun Ilbo)

Koreans don’t mind a trifle. Korea is the country of “Kenchanayo(Never mind)” mind.
For better or worse, they have rough national traits.

Abuse of Japanese animation “Science Ninja Team Gatchaman” on a public information poster of the Democratic Party of Korea.

This publication explains, “The situation is that our party convention and our innovation problem are sluggish by the flood damage and the spread of new coronavirus infection! Eagle 5 brothers will advance the party innovation problem by the live concert in YouTube to break this through.”
And the photograph of five Diet members (이재정李在汀 (Ee Chae-jeong), 김남국金南局 (Kim Nam-guk), 김용민金容敏 (Kim Yong-min), 장경태張京泰 (Chang Kyeong-tae) and 최혜영崔恵英 (Choe Hye-yeong)) from Democratic Party, and the image of five members of “Science Ninja Team Gatchaman” are published.
Korean net users say, “They like the abuse of Japanese characters without hesitation very much, though they hate pro-Japanese.”, “Do they say plagiarizing without paying the royalty that should be paid to Japan is patriotism? The Japanese title of the animation is ‘Ninja corps' of all things.”, “It may be sneered (in Japan)”, “Do not appeal the boycotting of Japan products, if the ruling party does such a thing.”...... (Korea・Chosun Ilbo)

• They denied the plagiarism as always. But it is not a big problem. They should only say honestly, “we referred to the Japanese game”. Why can they not do such a simple thing? Because they are criticized as “you are pro-Japanese”, if they say so. They can never say that they imitated the Japanese thing which Koreans hate.
• The problem is the phrase “the enemy product house”. As Korea was a part of Japanese territories until 1945, Japan could not be an enemy for Korea. However, according to the forgery of Korean history, Korea fought Japan in World War II. Therefore the prewar Japanese house becomes “the enemy product house”. Korea advertises that to all over the world saying “Korea is one of the victorious nations in conflict with Japan.” A Korean claim will be used in the world before long like changing “the Sea of Japan” to “the East sea”.

　This is a TV show of North Korea. Of course the performer does not know that the picture book is Japanese. North Korea does not consider the foreign copyrights at all, but it demands the fee for use when you use the North Korean pictures.

The Japanese title changes the original English title, but the Korean title is the same as the Japanese.

The Japanese title “誘惑の珊瑚礁” (Coral reef of the temptation) changes the original English title, but the Korean title is the same as the Japanese.

The Japanese title “オーケストラorchestraの少女” is “a girl in the orchestra”. The Korean title is the same as the Japanese.

There is a Korean translator’s name, but you can not know who wrote the origonal texts. There is no Japanese name at all.

A Korean blog writes, “This picture was drawn by a Korean illustrator. The binding was made by Han Nag-won and the picture was drawn by Song Hun.” （Korean blog）
However, the Korean picture reverses the Japanese picture horizontally, and changes the positions of the persons, but this is plagiarism basically.

The cover is different from the Japanese one, but the inside is the same. Some are reversed right to left, because Japanese book binds the right and Korean binds the left.

It is natural that you cannot find 정석건(Cheong Seok-geon) and 유원동(Yu Won-dong) on the Internet.

The first “CONCISE JAPANESE ENGLISH DICTIONARY” was made in 1922.

“檀紀 4288” means “A.D. 1955”. This is because it is written in “Samguk yusa” written at the end of thirteenth century that “In A. D. 2333, Dangun ascended the throne and founded his country.” The book nearly 5000 years later writes a country existed. You cannot believe the country actually existed. But the Korean believes that and the government-designated textbooks write that is the true history.

Tsuji Tsunehiko learned at Tokyo Imperial University and studied in Germany, afterwards Russia. He ordered the German version from Prague. The book had been translated into German by Grete Reiner and published in 1926. And he translated it into Japanese.

Chang Man-yong (장만영張萬榮) was a Korean poet and journalist. He was born as a Japanese in 1914 and died as a Korean in 1975.

Of course the illustrator 김종선(Kim Jong-seon) does not exist.

The original title is “Five Lessons”. The Japanese book named it “modern golf”. The Korean book is the same as the Japanese title.

Many Korean publishing companies compete with others in plagiarizing Japanese books.
Of course the publishing company knows the plagiarisms of other companies. Only Korean readers and the Japanese publishing companies don’t know that. The Japanese companies have not even dreamed of being plagiarized in the country beyond the seas where the importing of Japanese culture and books is prohibited.

The translations of the titles are the same.
“女王陛下の007号”＝“女王陛下의007號” (“号”＝“號”),
“サンダーボールThunderball作戦”＝“선더 볼Thunderball作戰” (“戦”＝“戰”),
“007/危機一発”＝“007/危機一發” (“発”＝“發”).
The word “危機kiki一発ippatsu” does not exist in the dictionary. Originally it is “危機kiki一髪ippatsu” (The issue hangs on a hair). It is a coined word made by Japanese and “一発ippatsu” means “one shot”. I don’t know whether the Korean knows that, but the Korean writer took it.

“タイムTime・パトロールPatrol”=“타임Time・패트롤Patrol”. The title is the same.
