The history of the new theory presented by me, “Baekje was a country of conquest.”, has not been peaceful at all. It has faced ups and downs all. Regardless its feasibility, it shows a live example symbolizing what kind of ‘hardship’ is waiting for presentation of a new theory. I thought of the theory, “Baekje was a country of conquest.”, when I was 31 years old and first presented it in relation to origin of Baekje in 1988. Since then, I have come through hard ways. “I have written only easy articles for just easy life”, said an elderly scholar. I, however, have experienced the world totally different from that of such scholar. I have spent a number of suffering nights having been slandered. “I cannot help but saying in advance that no other argument can be more exceptional than his theory”, a person said regarding the theory, “Baekje was a country of conquest.”, which I presented. The born problem of the theory, “Baekje was a country of conquest.”, lay actually on the redoubtable explosive power of ‘the most exceptional’ argument. Therefore, my theory has come over many peaks of hardship since its birth. Thereby, I was almost dead and also sick. That is, I have clearly experienced what price I should pay for presentation of an ‘exceptional’ new theory. I, however, believe that the truth will be distorted by any indication without the attitude that is basically required, which, furthermore, causes an acute damage. Wouldn’t it be a contemporary version of Jirokwima (指鹿爲馬: Call a deer a horse.) if they distorted the detail itself of my theory?
