Korea origin theory

The Korea origin theory is a historical negationist theory that claims the Korean Peninsula as the place of origin of other cultures. Specifically, proponents of the theory claim the culture, history, art and technology of China, Japan and elsewhere as having originated from Korea, or claim some personalities as ethnic Koreans. At times, supporters of the theory deny certain aspects of Korean culture as having been derived from or influenced by other cultures. Some of the accomplishments of other cultures have been applied as intangible cultural heritage at UNESCO.
