As of my last knowledge update in October 2023, there is no current king of Korea. The Korean monarchy was abolished in 1910 when Korea was annexed by Japan. Today, South Korea is a democratic republic, while North Korea is a single-party state led by Kim Jong-un, who holds the title of Supreme Leader. The last king of Korea was King Gojong, who reigned until his death in 1919.
Japan ruled Korea between 1910 and 1945.
It prevented South Korea from being annexed by North Korea.
After Japan took over Korea, Korea was treated badly. Even though Japan does not admit, Koreans were forced to speak Japanese, believe their religion, and many other Japanese customs. If not, they were executed or tortured. Japan also did many unfair things to Koreans such as scientific human tests, selling them as slaves, and destroying their monuments. The relationship between Japan and Korea is similiar to the relationship between Germany and Poland in WW2.
Over the course of several unequal treaties signed in 1905, 1907, and 1910 respectively, the Korean Empire was made a protectorate and then was officially annexed into the Japanese Empire. The Korean peninsula was then ruled as a colony of the Japanese Empire until 1945.The territory of Taiwan was also at one time controlled as a colony of the Japanese Empire. The island was annexed in 1895 following the First Sino-Japanese War. Like Korea, Taiwan was released from Japanese control in 1945 and is currently claimed by both the People's Republic of China and the Republic of China, also known as the Chinese Taipei.

Yes. Probably officially annexed in 1910.
Japan gained control of Korea in 1910, following the Japan-Korea Treaty of 1910, which formally annexed Korea as a Japanese colony. This followed a period of increasing Japanese influence over Korea, particularly after the First Sino-Japanese War in 1895 and the Russo-Japanese War in 1905. Japan's rule over Korea lasted until the end of World War II in 1945.
