 Relationship between Turkey and other countries



I'll talk about relationship between Turkey and other countries. Among many countries, I'll talk relationship Turkey and Korea called brother's country.

The first is background of brother's country Turkey and Korea.





In 1950(nineteen fifty), the korea war broke out. Though Turkey is long distance from korea, Turkey sent the second most number of troop. At that time, Turkey lose about 1000(one thousand) soldiers, about 2000 soldiers were injured. This picture is Turkish soldiers in Korea.



Now, In Korea Gyenggido Yonginsi, There are monument for entering a war.

Also, Turkey set up nursery school named 'Ankara academy' for korean war orphan.



After the Korean war, korean forgot Turkey. but, In 1999(nineteen ninty nine), big earthquake hit Turkey. It caused about 40,000(forty thousand)casualties. Korea conducted a fund raising campaign for Turkey. Turkish was impressed by Korea.

Also, in 2002 Korea-japan world cup, when the soccer game between Turkey and Korea, Korean cheered Turkey and Korea.


In 2006 Germany world cup, Turkish cheered Korea team.

 

 

The second is present between Turkey and Korea.

Turkey educated student to "Korea is brother's country". so, Turkish think korean good. If korean travels Turkey, Turkish is very nice to korean.

Also, In ankara, There is Korea park. The park is korea traditional tower and monument for entering the Korean war.
 

The third is "In Turkey, Korean wave"

Korea broadcasting was broadcast on Turkey state TV from 2005. 40,000(forty thousand)people joined the Fan club named 'Korea Fans'. They are interested in Korean drama, movie, food, style, Korea trip and so on. But, The best interest is K-pop!!!!!!




For example, JYJ,SHINY,CNBLUE, SS501.

Last february five, JYJ Kim Jaejoong‘s fan meeting took place in Ankara university. it was reported on Turkish newspaper.

Also, he was invited Turkey and Korea state occasion.

Why did I choose Turkey?
