History
The Chosun Ilbo Establishment Union was created in September 1919, and the Chosun Ilbo company was founded on March 5, 1920. Events 363 - Roman Emperor Julian moves from Antioch with an army of 90000 to attack the Sassanid Empire, in a Year 1920 ( MCMXX) was a Leap year starting on Thursday (link will display 1920 of the Gregorian calendar The newspaper was critical of, and sometimes directly opposed, the actions of the pro-Japanese government during Japanese colonial rule (1910-1945) (see South Korean media). Korea under Japanese rule refers to the period between 1910 and 1945 when Korea was forcibly annexed by the Japanese Empire.
On August 27, 1920, the Chosun Ilbo was suspended after it published an editorial heavily criticizing the use of excessive force by the Japanese police against Korean citizens. Events 479 BC - Greco-Persian Wars: Persian forces led by Mardonius are routed by Pausanias, the Spartan Year 1920 ( MCMXX) was a Leap year starting on Thursday (link will display 1920 of the Gregorian calendar This was the first in a string of suspensions. On September 5 of the same year, three days after the first suspension was lifted, the newspaper published an editorial entitled "Did the Japanese central governing body shut down our newspaper?" For this the Chosun Ilbo was given an indefinite suspension (its second suspension). Events 1590 - Alexander Farnese 's army forces Henry IV of France to raise the siege of Paris.
In June 1923, Chosun Ilbo celebrated its one-thousandth issue. It had achieved many milestones including being the first newspaper in Korea to publish both morning and evening editions, send international correspondents to Russia, and publish cartoons. However, in that same month, it was given its third, indefinite suspension by the Japanese government for printing an editorial opposing Japanese rule of Korea.
In 1927, the Chosun Ilbo's editor and publisher were arrested. The editor was also the chief staff writer. The offense in this case was an editorial citing the mistreatment of prisoners by the colonial government. In May of that same year, in response to an editorial criticizing sending troops into Shandong[2], the Chosun Ilbo was suspended for a fourth time for 133 days. ( is a coastal province of eastern People's Republic of China. The publisher and chief staff writer, An Jae-hong, were once again imprisoned.
After these events, the Chosun Ilbo remained at the forefront of events, trying to improve general public life and sponsoring collaboration. This was a turbulent period; within the space of three years, the president was replaced three times. On December 21, 1935, in collaboration with compulsory Japanese education and plans to assimilate the Korean people and language, the Chosun Ilbo published 100,000 Korean-language textbooks nationwide. Events 69 - The end of the Year of the four emperors: Following Galba, Otho and Vitellius, Vespasian Year 1935 ( MCMXXXV) was a Common year starting on Tuesday (link will display full calendar of the Gregorian calendar.
Over the years, the Chosun Ilbo also started to publish many side publications. One of these was a monthly publication of current events called Youth Chosun, the first of its kind in Korea. Others included its sister publication, Jogwang.
In the summer of 1940, after issue number 6923, the paper was declared officially discontinued by the Japanese ruling government. In the twenty years since its founding, the paper had been suspended by the Japanese government four times, and its issues confiscated over five hundred times before 1932. Because of bankruptcy, ownership changed hands, and the news organization fell under tighter control of the Japanese to become one of the most influential organizations to collaborate with the colonial goovernment.
When Korea gained independence in 1945, the Chosun Ilbo came back into publication after a five year, three month hiatus.
Criticism
Chosun Ilbo is often criticized for its conservative bias, including support for the conservative Grand National Party and hostility towards the liberal presidencies of Kim Dae Jung (1998-2003) and Roh Moo Hyun (2003-2008). The Grand National Party is a conservative-leaning political party in South Korea. Kim Dae-jung (Born December 3, 1925, kim tɛdʑuŋ is a former South Korean president and the 2000 Nobel Peace Prize recipient Roh Moo-hyun (nomuʝʌn (born in August 6, 1946 in Kimhae, Gyeongsangnam-do, South Korea is a former President of South Korea Such criticism of the major news dailies in Korea has not been limited to the Chosun Ilbo. Similar arguments have been made against the Joongang Ilbo, Donga Ilbo, and others. JoongAng Ilbo is a conservative newspaper published in Seoul, Korea. The Dong-a Ilbo (literally East Asia Daily) was founded in 1920 by Kim Sung-soo who also founded Korea University during the Japanese And the Hankyoreh, another leading national newspaper, has been heavily criticized for liberal bias. The Hankyoreh ( Hangul:한겨레 is a daily Newspaper in South Korea.
The Chosun Ilbo, however, has been particularly attacked by socio-political groups as being too pro-conservative. Anti-Chosun Ilbo movements have been staged by media reformists and NGOs for its biased reporting and commercialism. One such grassroots effort took place in 2005 when Nosamo, an activist group supporting then-President Roh Moo-Hyun whose group name literally translated means "gathering of people who love Roh Moo-hyun", launched a campaign to convince readers to stop reading the Chosun Ilbo and subscribe the left-leaning Hankyoreh and Kyunghyang Shinmun. Nosamo (노사모 acronym for 노무현을 사랑하는 사람들의 모임 "gathering of people who love Roh Moo-hyun " is an Internet -based group organised The Kyunghyang Shinmun or Kyonghyang Sinmun is a major Newspaper Periodical published in South Korea.
