Has anyone done a Korean TL

I recently was looking at the wiki page for two interesting weapons from Korea's past, the Hwacha and the Turtle Ship. As I was doing so, I got to wondering, has anyone on this site done a timeline for Korea during the pre 1900 era?

I am planning to write a TL with Balhae surviving...:D
 
I am currently working on one with a POD that will occur around 400 (see my sig) but it might be too far back for what you're looking for.

However, I am planning on bringing it roughly to the present, so there might be similar events that you might be interested in.
 
Yes, a few years back someone with absolutely no regard for the laws of physics or the butterfly effect had feudal Korea take over the entire world.

And if you think that's bad, he also didn't know how to draw borders…

Who was that, anyway?

I will not be drawing maps, and rest assured that this TL will not resemble the mess that I created the first time at all.

There's a very good reason why I am starting off with a thorough description of events long before the POD this time, instead of jumping right into it, and I probably consulted very little primary sources then, if any, while I have relied on several already in this one.

Interesting, so you'll be breaking some new ground then. Have you heard about the theory about the close relationship between the Balhae language and Japanese?


Also, I'm planning on doing Goguryeo TL myself at one point, I already have the POD lined up and everything, though I need to do more research.

I've never heard about this, although Japanese sources suggest that the Balhae and Silla languages were mutually intelligible.

Mind if I ask you when your POD will be?
 
We don't have many Korean TLs here even though personally I found Korean history fascinating (especially the Imjin War). :) I might to do one on "Meji" Korea later on. I have also thought about a North Korean TL but it would be of course post-1900.
