You guys have to be retarded. Watch the video again. Did it say Koreans stole the invention? No. It says Chinese invented it and Koreans made improvements upon it. That's why it makes it different and shows both. You think you guys are always right and that what you know is common knowledge. History is something that changes due to new artifact finds. So you can't just know. You gotta find out like every month or so.

obviously because the fake-goods are illegal in china, and the chinese don't claim credit for them. Whereas for the koreans...well, they tend to claim credit for everything they steal.

Uh... China attacked Japan many many times in the past too... and Korea... they just weren't as successful as Japan in taking over... Plus, while Korea does steal a lot of Chinese things, I see stolen American/European stuff here in China all the time... why don't you all just relax and get over it?

they should've just fired actual bee hives at their enemies, lol

if anyone who has seen this show. knows were i can find the part were the guy shows just how fast a bow can be shot. if someone could help me locate a video of it i'd greatly appreciat it.

this is chinese, fucking koreans and japs always try 2 steal our shit fucking stupid bitches cant make their own shit and steal ours fucking bitches

Korean people,stop those stupid claims,and Chinese people,stop your innocent comments,peace.

If Chineses and Koreans fight with each other,the japs will destroy both countries.Remeber,Chinese army general Deng Tsi Leong and Korean army general Lee Sun Shim fucked japs in the battle of 1592,that was a cool battle.

Peace.Remeber that anti-japanese battle in 1592????? Together,the Chinese army and the Korean army defeated the Japs.If Chinese people and Korean people can work together,japs will be defeated.

Screw that, in the battle of Baekgang, A much outnumbered Tang Navy creamed a Japanese navy much much more bigger in size, that defeat for the Japanese struck fear in their hearts as they started building fortiforcations around their island, but China never attacked them.
