일본군의 한성 점령과 군대 해산－駐箚部隊의 개편과 공간 占奪을 중심으로－

Abstract

Starting with the Korea legation garrison troops in 1882, the modern Japanese military has expanded its physical strength to the basis of the Sino-Japanese War and the Russo-Japanese War. Japan, which controlled the military power of the Qing Dynasty due to the Sino-Japanese War, made a direct military threat by stationing "Japanese troops stationed in Korea(鮮國駐箚守備隊)" between Gyeongbok Palace and Gyeongwoon Palace. The Hansung-based Japanese troops stationed in Korea built barracks in Busan and Wonsan for the first time, effectively scheming for permanent stationing. In addition, the battalion headquarters and the first and second units of Hansung posed a direct threat to the Korean Empire, taking control of the telegraph line built by the Qing Dynasty. Since then, Japan has established a large-scale ‘permanent barracks’ in Yongsan, establishing a unified and systematic military presence by establishing a headquarters in the Korean parking lot before and after the Russo-Japanese War. Japanese troops in Korea have gone through the Russo-Japanese War as an organization and physically permanent and augmented force. In July, ahead of the disbandment of the Korean Empire in 1907, the trend of the Japanese military increased. The reinforcements were made to disperse ‘the royal guard(侍衛隊)’ in various parts of Hanseong, thus securing each stronghold. The Japanese military deployed large-scale troops in the Jongro area and Namdaemun-Kyungwoon Palace, while its headquarters in Namsan finally ordered the disbandment of the army. The status of the deployment of Japanese troops deployed to disperse the military and the isolation of protesters are clearly confirmed through a map drawn up by the Japanese military's parking command. The disbandment of the military and the armed occupation of Hanseong were directly carried out by the order of the command of Japanese troops stationed in Korea, but finally by the order and permission of the Resident-General, Hirobumi Ito. Ito, who had pushed for the dissolution of the army and the demise of the crown, went to his home country and promoted the visit of Japanese Prince Yoshihito to Hanseong. The visit to Hanseong by the Japanese prince further increased the number of Japanese troops, and additional troops armed with cavalry regiment were later sent to suppress medical troops. The disbandment of ‘the royal guard(侍衛隊)’, the Japanese prince's visit to Korea, and the nationwide crackdown on the Japanese military's buildup and medical disease took place on a series of consecutive lines.
