(The) Hyun Soon affair at the Korean Commission in Washington D.C., 1921
Jenks, Steven Gary Graduate School of International Studies, Yonsei U 2002 국내석사
This thesis analyzes the controversy at the Korean Commission to America and Europe which was ignited in early 1921 when Hyun Soon (1879-1968) attempted to establish a legation in Washington D.C. to represent the Korean Provisional Government located in Shanghai. This study is based mainly on the English and Korean language correspondence exchanged between all the principal participants in this controversy./ Part I of this paper outlines Hyun’s life and career prior to his arrival in Washington D.C. in August 1920. Among other things, Hyun was involved in the planning for the 1919 March First Movement together with other Korean Christian ministers in Seoul, and later was a key participant in the establishment and early activities of the Korean Provisional Government./ Part II examines the “Hyun Soon Affair.” It explains how President Syngman Rhee appointed Hyun to the Korean Commission, assesses Hyun’s work at the Korean Commission as its chairman in the months prior to his attempt to establish a Korean legation, and the circumstances behind his discovery of credentials from Rhee appointing him as an “Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary of the Provisional Government of the Republic of Korea to the United States of America,” the pivotal event that ignited the controversy./ Parts III and IV analyze the arguments relative to the controversy from two sides, first from Hyun’s perspective and then from the point of view of those who opposed Hyun’s ill-starred plan. These accounts will provide an objective and detailed examination of the “Hyun Soon Affair,” in the words of Syngman Rhee, Philip Jaisohn, Henry Chung, and Hyun Soon himself./ Finally, the Conclusion will summarize the major findings of this study. Most notable among these is that Hyun Soon was mistaken and misguided when he attempted to prematurely establish a Korean legation in Washington D.C. and that responsibility for any resultant damage to the Korean independence movem

Dr. Robert T. Oliver (1909-2000) worked for the Korean cause from 1942 to 1960 in Washington, D.C. as a publicist and lobbyist. He wrote more than six books and hundred articles regarding Korea during that period. His writings remained sources of major information on Korea for the American leaders and public. Oliver’s fateful encounter with Syngman Rhee in September 1942 in Washington, D.C. was the beginning of his persistent publicity and lobbying efforts for Korea. His pro-Korean campaign thereafter can be described in terms of four phases. 1942-1945 is the initial phase during which Oliver enthusiastically tried to learn about Korean matters and began writing for the cause of Korean independence, particularly for Syngman Rhee’s effort to gain the U.S. recognition of Korean Provisional Government. The second phase is years 1946-1948 during which Oliver was actively lobbying in Washington, D.C. for the establishment of Republic of Korea (ROK). Oliver persuaded State Department officials with Syngman Rhee’s agenda. At the same time he tried to persuade the American public of the validity of an independent South Korean government by writing numerous articles representing the opinion of anti-Communist Koreans. During the Korean War period (1950-1953), Oliver wrote several influential books and articles in defense of the Republic of Korea. His books, including Why War Came in Korea and Verdict in Korea, provided Americans and other foreigners with “accurate” reflection of the ROK position. Many foreign reporters were writing about Korea during the war but it was Oliver that represented what South Korean people were fighting for, in addition to providing insightful analysis of what brought about the Korean conflict. He continued his work until the consummation of the U.S.- ROK Mutual Defense Treaty. Oliver remained an advisor and friend to Syngman Rhee to the very last moment of the latter’s presidency. He was privy to Rhee’s views on the current Korean domestic and foreign affairs. Oliver advised Rhee not to run for presidential election in 1956 and 1960. He left the account of his intimate talk with Syngman Rhee in the work, Syngman Rhee and American Involvement in Korea, 1942-1960. Even after the downfall of President Rhee in 1960, Oliver wanted to work for the Korean cause as a publicist in U.S., but the Second Republic of Korea of Premier Chang My n which renouced the linkage with the Rhee regime refused his offer. With this, Oliver’s eighteen-year-long efforts for Korea came to an end. Although Koreans might have forgotten Oliver’s name, he did not do so. He continued writing on Korea and published A History of the Korean People in Modern Times and The Way It Was - All the Way: A Documentary Accounting in 1993 and 1994, respectively. His devotion to Korea was rightfully described by the title of Oliver’s obituary in a Korean daily, “An American Who Loved Korea More Than the Koreans.”

Syngman Rhee (Yi Su˘ng-man, 1875-1965) is often described as a dictator who abused his power at great lengths. As a result of his unpopular political actions, which in 1960 led to a disastrous outcome, the general sentiment of the Korean people remains more critical than favorable. Such is the unfortunate fate of the first president of the Republic of Korea. Although Rhee has been much maligned throughout the years, however, it is difficult to refute the sacrifices he has made to his country. During his lifetime, Rhee devoted his efforts to fighting Japanese colonialism and to bringing forth an independent "democratic" society. Therefore, in the conventional literature dealing with Rhee, the political aspects of his life have received the most, if not all the attention. However, Rhee was much more than a one-dimensional politician. He had accomplished so much away from politics. Thus, there are other facets of his life that deserve more recognition and better scrutiny than what they currently receive. As such, it is somewhat unfair to judge and criticize Rhee solely on his political efforts and not to study other significant aspects of this unique individual. Among his many lifetime achievements, it is important not to overlook his accomplishments as a scholar. From early childhood, Rhee had always excelled academically. This scholastic excellence is reflected by his work in some of the leading academic institutions in the United States. Rliee earned his Bachelor of Ai-ts degree from George Washington University and subsequently furthered his education by attending Harvard University where he received his Master of Arts degree. Then, Rhee completed his education by receiving his Doctor of Philosophy degree from Princeton University. However, even more impressive was that Rhee completed the previously mentioned education within only five years. In addition to his educational achievements, Rhee also had success in other aspects of scholarship. Rhee was very active in both print media and academic literature. Rhee wrote for and was actively involved in the publication of Korean newspapers such as Maeil sinmun (Daily News). Furthermore, Rhee wrote numerous books both in Korean and in English. One of his better known books is the English-language work, entitled Japan Inside Out (1941). Although Rhee achieved much in academia, many are either unaware of such accomplishments and abilities, or they do not take such factors into consideration. There are a myriad of critics including Bruce Cumings who criticized Rhee by stating that "The CIA was right to say that Rhee's intellect was shallow; his publications and private communications, at least the ones available, betray few hints of a contemplative mind...." Hence, the focus of this thesis is to explore the educational background and achievements of Rhee with an examination of his published doctoral dissertation, entitled Neutrality as Influenced by the United States. The initial chapter of this thesis will delve into his academic history, both in Korea and the United States. Rhee was a very capable individual and a dedicated student who achieved a great deal in academia. He initially began his education with extensive training in the Confucian classics. However, with the opening of Korea to foreign missionaries and the proliferation of Western learning, Rhee abandoned his Confucian classical education and studied English and Christianity. Even while spending over five and a half years in prison due to his nationalist activities, he dedicated himself to his education. With limited resources, which included English-language newspapers and magazines, Rhee was able to improve his English skills while continuing to learn about tlie Western states. Then, upon his release from prison, Rhee arrived in the United States and studied at three of the top academic institutions in the country. Ultimately, with his Ph.D. from Princeton University, he distinguished himself as being the first Korean ever to receive a Ph.D. in tlie United States. In the process of earning his Ph.D., Rhee focused his studies on international law and history and wrote his doctoral dissertation entitled Neutrality as Influenced by the United States, which was published by Princeton University Press in 1912. This is the focus of the subsequent chapters. In this book, he wrote on the concepts of neutrality and its effects as developed by the United States. Delving into the history and its origins, Rhee explains that tlie United States and its liberal policies greatly influenced the evolution of neutrality and maritime law. Therefore, as Neutrality as Injltienced by the United States represents and reflects a high level of scholarship, this thesis will attempt to shed more light on this academic work and, ultimately, the intellectual abilities of Rhee. This study concludes with a brief evaluation and analysis. This section will examine tlie strengths and weaknesses of tlie book. In addition, questions pertaining to the possible effect that the book had in the academia as well as the possible role Woodrow Wilson played i n regards to this work will be examined. Among the references used during this study, the biography entitled Syngman Rhee: The Man Behind the Myth by Robert T. Oliver is the best English- language source available. Oliver recounts Rhee's life until the end of the Korean War with great detail and care. Unfortunately, as a- long time friend and confidant of Rhee, Oliver may have been too subjective in his work. In addition, another valuable source I have been able to use is the unpublished autobiographical notes Rhee wrote that are currently being edited by Professor Chong-sik Lee for the Institute for Modern Korean Studies at Yonsei University. These autobiographical notes were used by Oliver in writing his aforementioned book. These notes, which iiiclude other pertinent information, give validity to confirm or refute much of the information currently available. As for Korean-language material, the work entitled Yi Sting-man u˘i sarm kwa kkum: Tnet 'ong-nyo˘ng i toegi kkaji (The Life and Dreams of Syngman Rhee: Prior to His Assumption of Presidency) by Professor Young Ick Lew is an excellent source that offers much more current and updated information regarding Rhee. Although these three sources offer favorable views on Rhee, they still provide a wealth of information and tremendous anecdotes to help us better understand Rhee the scholar, and more importantly, the man.

Syngman Rhee's changing perceptions of Japan
Hong, Francesca Graduate School of International Studies, Yonsei U 2002 국내박사
Syngman Rhee's anti-Japanese sentiment is a subject frequently mentioned in studies on modem Korean history especially on the politics of South Korea's First Republic (1948-1960). It was a sentiment that significantly characterized not only Rhee's administration but also South Korean foreign policy during the 1950s. Furthermore, it is widely viewed by scholars as a major factor that caused the delay in normalizing diplomatic relations between the embryonic Korean Republic and its former colonialist power Japan during Rhee's leadership. However, despite its historical significance, Rhee's sentiment toward Japan is rarely, if ever, looked at in-depth by historians. In fact, many simply attribute Rhee's negative attitude toward his bete-noire Japan to his experience as a key leader in Korea's independence movement abroad against Japanese colonial rule. To be sure, the Japanese occupation of the Korean Peninsula (1910-1945) left Rhee embittered and wary of Japan's militaristic tendencies. However, to dismiss Rhee's anti-Japanese sentiment as purely a manifestation of a "life-long, personal antagonism" against Japan would only be scratching the surface. The objective of this thesis is to shed light on Rhee's perceptions of Japan by analyzing important primary materials - his writings. Included in this thesis are his early views regarding Japanese influence in Korea at the end of the nineteenth century as reflected in his magnum opus, Tongnip Choˇngsin [The Spirit of Independence]; his analysis of Japan's militaristic tendencies prior to its involvement in World War II in his prophetic work, Japan Inside Out: The Challenge of Today; and finally, his observations regarding Japan in the post-Liberation period reflected in his correspondences with trusted members of his administration. This thesis shows that Rhee's perceptions of Japan did not remain stagnant but instead, changed and were shaped by events at critical stages during his lifetime. For instance, Rhee's initial views on Japan were far from "anti-Japanese." They were, in fact, quite favorable. His early career as a reform-minded activist influenced his perception of Japan as Korea's potential mentor. Rhee hoped that Japan's successes with modernization and Westernization would serve as a model for Korea. Although he expressed concern over Japan's increasing presence on the peninsula, he continued to regard it as an example until 1904, the year of the outbreak of the Russo-Japanese War. By the end of the Russo-Japanese War in 1905, Rhee's perceptions of a benevolent Japan had undergone a metamorphosis. The signing of several significant "agreements" between Japan and Korea culminated in the Treaty of Protection in 1905, which gave Japan unprecedented influence over Korean affairs. In 1910, Korea became a Japanese colony. Rhee's perceptions of Japan changed accordingly. From this point on, Rhee no longer considered Japan a potential mentor or a "friend", but a definite foe. He spent the next thirty-odd years in exile in the United States lobbying for Korean independence. Syngman Rhee's anti-Japanese sentiment reached its zenith during the post-Liberation period. Regardless of Japan's defeat in 1945, Rhee continued to perceive it as a threat. He was vehemently opposed to the United States' post-war policy supporting the rehabilitation and rearmament of Japan -convinced of a resurgence of Japanese militarism if given the opportunity. Furthermore, he was incensed over Japan's gravitation toward coexistence with Communist regimes in East Asia, specifically, Japan's overtures toward North Korea. Therefore, he continued to expound the importance of exposing to the world Japan's duplicitous nature and its hidden intentions throughout his administration. This anti-Japanese sentiment frustrated the normalization talks throughout the 1950s.

The recent increase in migration of ethnic minorities to the countries of East Asia and their subsequent acculturation are topics of growing importance. In South Korea this is so particularly in light of the persistence of Korean attitudes toward ethnic consanguineous homogeneity and the relationship in Korea of ethnicity and identity. To date, research on labor and marriage migrants from the Global South significantly outweighs that conducted generally more highly educated and better-paid migrant English teachers. Models of acculturation developed for and applied to past examples of immigration tend to have ignored the bi-directionality of such thus focusing solely upon the dominant host or accepting-side, and sought to explain acculturation as generally following one of four strategies: assimilation, separation, integration, or marginalization. It is the argument of this study that such models are inapplicable to the case of migrant English teachers. Via qualitative interviews, this study undertakes a joining-side approach to the investigation of migrant English teacher acculturation in South Korea. Three dimensions are identified as having an effect upon this process: time spent in South Korea, marriage to a Korean, and Korean language acquisition. It is hypothesized that via these dimensions participants pursue an inclusive acculturative strategy. However, it was found that while participants do not characterize their acculturation as actively inclusive, neither do they report being actively excluded. The term disinclusion has been coined to refer to this discrepancy, constitutive of an acculturative condition to which English teachers in South Korea are subject and to which they react with a variable response termed the disinclusion reaction. Participants were found to persevere in spite of disinclusion, to respond variably vis-?-vis the study’s dimensions, ultimately resulting in perpetuation of their being subject to disinclusion.
