  Eulsa Treaty Information
The Eulsa Treaty was made between Korean Empire and Japanese Empire on 17 November 1905, influenced by the result of the Russo-Japanese War.
Through the treaty, Korea ceded its foreign diplomacy to the Japanese Empire, became a protectorate of Japan, and in effect ceded its national sovereignty to Japan until the korean empire was empowered under the treaty.
In a joint statement on 23 June 2005, South Korean and North Korean officials declared the Eulsa treaty null and void on the basis of probable coercion by the Japanese.

“Ito re-appeared and prompted that the treaty must be signed, but I thought it would be better to delay the signing date to buy some time for public consensus, so I came out of the conference room to meet the king, but I was forcefully taken to Ito by a Japanese interpreter.
However, recently a domestic newspaper made headline news by saying, “The evidence to prove that the Eulsa Treaty was forced by Japan has been found after a century,” without knowledge of Dong-A Ilbo’s earlier publication.
Since then research on the treaty entered a new phase where in May 1992, Yi Tae-jin, a professor at Seoul Nation University, discovered that there was no title of the treaty mentioned in the original document, and that there was no document to confirm the then emperor’s ratification of it.

China was defeated, and in 1842, agreed to the provisions of the Treaty of Nanjing.
Several provisions of these treaties caused long-standing bitterness and humiliation among the Chinese: extraterritoriality (meaning that in a dispute with a Chinese person, a Westerner had the right to be tried in a court under the laws of his own country), customs regulation, and the right to station foreign warships in Chinese waters.
Japan's encroachment on Korea began with the 1876 Treaty of Kanghwa with the Joseon Dynasty of Korea, increased with the 1895 assassination of Empress Myeongseong and the 1905 Eulsa Treaty, and was completed with the illicit 1910 Japan-Korea Annexation Treaty.

Unequal Treaties, a term mainly used in reference to China, refers to a type of treaty signed by several East Asian states, including the Qing Empire in China, late Tokugawa Japan, and late Joseon Korea, with foreign powers, during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
Japan was the first to throw off the shackles of its treaties during the mid 1890s, when its performance in the First Sino-Japanese War convinced many in the West that Japan had indeed entered among the body of "civilized nations".
China's unequal treaties almost completely dissolved only following Hong Kong's handover in 1997 (though it was agreed on in 1984 following talks between Deng Xiaoping and the British) with the exception of territory seized by Imperial Russia (Outer Manchuria).

[Editorial] The Republic of Korea on the Centenary of the Eulsa Treaty
Today marks the centenary of the forced Eulsa Treaty in 1905 through which Japan took away Korea’s diplomatic rights.
That painful experience lingers today in the adjective, “eulsinyeon-like,” which means “impoverished” or “gloomy.” Five years after the fateful day of “national destruction” when Korea was forced to sign the treaty, this nation fell entirely into the hands of Japan.

 Five Eulsa Traitors at AllExperts
In Korean history, Five Eulsa Traitors refers to those officials serving under Emperor Gojong who signed the Eulsa Treaty of 1905 against Gojong's wishes, stripping the Korean Empire of its sovereignty and making Korea a protectorate of Japan.
Opposition to the Treaty was made by Prime Minister Han Gyu-seol and by the ministers of finance and justice, but they and the politically weakened Gojong were unable to resist the Five.
In 2005, the Research Center for National Issues (민족문제연구소) identified the names of the five officals responsible for the Eulsa Treaty, as part of its efforts to compile a directory of individual Koreans who had collaborated with the Japanese before and during its colonial rule.

An underlined phrase in text submitted for parliamentary inspection states the Korean government's position that the 1909 Gando Convention, signed by Japan without Korea's consent, and the Eulsa Treaty, which deprived Korea of diplomatic rights in 1905, are null and void.
The Gando Convention was a treaty in which Japan handed over the Gando region, which was virtually Korean territory, to China in return for certain privileges in Manchuria, including railway concessions.
On page 186 of volume 7 of the Foreign Ministry's "National Assembly Inspection Materials," a copy of which was obtained by the Chosun Ilbo, the contents of the 1909 Gando Convention were explained, after which it said the agreement was null and void.

 History of Korea - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Joseon court which ruled Korea, was well aware of the foreign invasions and treaties involving Qing China, as well as the Opium Wars, and followed a cautious policy of slow exchange with the west.
While the legality of the treaty is still asserted by Japan, it is generally not accepted in Korea because it was not signed by the Emperor of Korea as required and violated international convention on external pressures regarding treaties.
Korea was controlled by Japan under a so-called Governor-General of Korea until Japan's unconditional surrender to the Allied Forces, on 15 August 1945, with de jure sovereignty deemed to have passed from Joseon Dynasty to the Provisional Government of the Republic of Korea.

Japan's involvement began with the 1876 Treaty of Ganghwa during the Joseon Dynasty of Korea and increased with the subsequent assassination of Empress Myeongseong at the hands of Japanese agents in 1895.

However, Hirobumi Ito, the author of the document, revised it to look as if Kojong fully agreed to the conclusion of the so-called Eulsa Treaty in 1905, which was used by imperial Japan as the basis to forcibly annex Korea five years later.
The document was drafted on Dec. 8, 1905, right after the treaty was signed, and was submitted later to the Japanese ruler.
