Joseon Dynasty diplomatic ship

A replica ship of Joseon Tongsinsa, a diplomatic delegation sent by the Joseon Dynasty (1392-1910) of Korea to Japan, reenacts sailing in waters off the southeastern port city of Busan on May 3, 2024. The ship was modeled on one used by Joseon Tongsinsa, whose dispatch began in 1607 to promote peace after a seven-year Japanese invasion. A total of 12 such teams of envoys were sent to Japan until 1811, focusing on conveying advanced culture. (Yonhap)
