1. Chosen was called Korea in the west anyways.
2. Chosen has been split in north/south so it is not equivalent.
The country that was formerly known as "Chosen" is South Korea. The name "Chosen" is derived from the Japanese pronunciation of "Joseon," a historical Korean dynasty. This term was used during the period of Japanese rule over Korea from 1910 to 1945. After Korea gained independence, it became officially known as the Republic of Korea (South Korea).
