다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

During the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-5 as the fighting between the Chinese and the Japanese military on the Choson territory and Lushun(旅順) of China got fierce the Donghak Peasant Army(東學農民軍) was mass slaughtered for the attack on the Japanese rear base in Chosen.
The Japanese General Military Headquarter instructed the mass slaughter of the Donghak Peasant Army as it was the biggest obstacle for the Japanese invasion of the kingdom of Choson. The Japanese commander in chief ordered his men to shoot to kill the Donghak Peasant Army and try to put the blame to the Choson official troops as the number of death toll was exceptionally high.
The final death toll was purposefully reduced by the Japanese Army for the popular unrest. Tens of thousands were massacred in the Chungcheong(忠淸) Jeolla(全羅) Gyeongsang(慶尙) Gyeonggi(京畿) Gangwon(江原) and Whanghae-Do(黃海道) provinces and thousands of prisoners were executed. The worst-affected area was the south Jeolla province.
Even a conservative estimate suggest over 50 thousands of the Donghak Peasant Army were killed. In comparison 10 Japanese soldiers were officially killed during entire the Donghak Peasant Revolution(東學農民革命).
