This time, we will bring you a video that explores the question, "Why was Japan the only country that was able to avoid being colonized and achieve modernization?"

In the 19th century, as the rule of the great powers spread throughout Asia, Japan maintained its independence and walked the path to becoming a modern nation.

Behind this was the "culture of learning" that was cultivated during the war-free Edo period, and Japan's flexible attitude of accepting Western knowledge while learning from the mistakes of other countries.

Furthermore, Japan's reforms also give great hope to other Asian countries.

So, what was the "certain event" behind the successful modernization?

What was the moment when Japan's choice would change the fate of the world?

Please watch the main video to find out more.
