EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful print captures a unique and often overlooked aspect of World War One - the presence of Korean soldiers serving with the Japanese army. The image shows two Korean soldiers in traditional dress, standing proudly alongside their Japanese comrades.
During this tumultuous period in history, Korea was under Japanese rule, and many Koreans were conscripted into the Japanese military to fight in WW1. These brave soldiers faced immense challenges and sacrifices as they fought on foreign soil for a cause that was not their own.
The historical significance of this photograph cannot be understated. It serves as a reminder of the complex alliances and conflicts that shaped the course of 20th-century military history. It also sheds light on the experiences of Korean troops who served during this turbulent time.
As we reflect on this image, we are reminded of the diverse contributions made by individuals from all corners of the globe during times of war. These Korean soldiers may have been far from home, but their courage and dedication to duty remain an enduring testament to their resilience.
Through Mary Evans Picture Library's collection, we are able to glimpse into this lesser-known chapter of WW1 history and honor the memory of these unsung heroes who served with valor alongside their Japanese counterparts.
