Keyhole-Shaped Tombs in South Jeolla and the Four Counties of Mimana — The Truth of Korean Peninsula History Shown by a Burial Form Unique to the Japanese Archipelago
Published on July 31, 2019. This essay discusses the relationship between Japanese history and the Korean Peninsula through the discovery of keyhole-shaped burial mounds in South Jeolla Province and the fact that the area was part of the broader Mimana, known as the Four Counties of Mimana. It raises questions about discrimination against people from South Jeolla, the dominance of people from North Jeolla in South Korea’s ruling class, and historical facts that much of the Japanese media has failed to convey

Many keyhole-shaped burial mounds, a burial system unique to the Japanese archipelago, have been discovered in South Jeolla Province on the Korean Peninsula, and this land is part of the broader Mimana, known as the Four Counties of Mimana.
This is a chapter I published on March 3, 2019, under the title, “In South Korea, people from South Jeolla Province have been discriminated against…that people from North Jeolla Province are South Korea’s ruling class is probably a fact known to all discerning people.”
Just now, while searching Wikipedia for the Mimana Japanese Government, one more mystery was solved.
In South Korea, people from South Jeolla Province have been discriminated against…that people from North Jeolla Province are South Korea’s ruling class is probably a fact known to all discerning people.
However, why that was so was something I did not understand at all while I was subscribing to the Asahi Shimbun until August five years ago.
Even after switching my subscriptions from August five years ago to the Sankei, Yomiuri, and Nikkei, I still did not understand it at all.
But a little while ago, while searching the internet, I understood it in an instant.
The preceding text is omitted.
- Many keyhole-shaped burial mounds, a burial system unique to the Japanese archipelago, have been discovered in South Jeolla Province on the Korean Peninsula, and this land is part of the broader Mimana, known as the Four Counties of Mimana.
＊This, too, is probably one of the clearest examples of the many cases in which much of the Japanese media does not convey the truth.＊
