Japanese rule over Korea, which lasted from 1910 to 1945, was characterized by harsh colonial policies aimed at assimilating Koreans and suppressing their culture. The Japanese government implemented a series of reforms that included land expropriation, forced labor, and heavy taxation, while promoting Japanese language and education to eradicate Korean identity. Resistance movements arose, but they were often met with brutal repression. Ultimately, this period left deep scars on Korean society and contributed to ongoing tensions between Korea and Japan.
