It should not be ignored that the poem card game that appeared during the Japanese colonial era had the aspect to revive shijos under the Japanese rule as claimed by the existing researchers. However, when the times and political situations in those days and the attributes of the poem card game and the general characteristics of the game culture of the times are considered, it could confirmed that there was a big possibility that Japan intentionally distributed the game. The first reason why Japan distributed the game was the insemination of Japanese ideas.
