North Korea actually has a ton of historical records about Goguryeo, but they don't share them. That's why Goguryeo history in South Korea is full of mysteries, and a lot of it has been pieced together by comparing it with the Baekje and Silla periods.
The Goguryeo history we know today comes almost entirely from Chinese territory that was once part of Goguryeo and from records about Goguryeo found in Baekje and Silla documents.
i wonder if north korea even properly researched and preserved records even when artifacts come up while digging even in our country people don't properly report and just destroy them so i wonder how much worse it is in north korea i wonder if any records are properly preserved
깃털기사펭구Was it around mid-2010? Those North Korean bastards were like, let's exchange Silla historical records and Goguryeo historical records and do something, so our country was seriously fucking worried about it. Then it came out that they were fucking selling those materials and artifacts to China and Japan. Later, they said they'd give us some info if we paid them some money, but when we proposed exchanging historical materials instead, they immediately blocked us lol...
China used the materials they bought from North Korea to fucking create distorted materials for the Northeast Project, and overseas they only released materials that were 'cut out of context and tailored to their own taste'... They even lied about the excavation sites of Goguryeo historical materials. The whole fucking mess of the Northeast Project and the red alert started because of those North Korean bastards.
Actually, there was a record, but maybe it got deleted?
