But Tsusima, has cast a financial bottom line, kept trying to invite Joseon Envoys for over twenty years. In result, Joseon Dynasty sent the Envoys into Tsusima 1811. After 47years, Tsusima managed to put the deal through, and the third envoy and the talented men who get on horses ruled out of the total number of Joseon Envoys. They paid attention to Joseon Envoys and recorded many paintings, which reflected a sense of international crisis into turbulent times.
